The Villain's Wife-Chapter 897 Cooperation

Chapter 897 Cooperation

When Lily arrived in the room, she said nothing and sat on the bed contemplating. She had been in too deep, she is not going to stop now.

Two hours.

In two hours, she was sure that her husband would come and find her. This was not a guess… This was planned.

.........….

An hour ago.

Zhou Jingren narrowed his eyes at Lord Naru and Lord Mu then towards Lord Neeson. "Do you believe me now?"

"Mr. Bei…" Lord Naru eyed the man who looked like Bei Tian. "Even if Kuznetsov got her, we cannot do anything about it. We can't just go to Russia and rescue her. Both of us are important individuals in our country. We can't just run around and instruct people to kill and destroy properties."

"Did I ask for your assistance?" Zhou Jingren countered. "I am here to tell you that someone betrayed your organization. Clearly, you and him have different goals." He sneered.

The older men pursed their lips as they eyed the man who suddenly arrived in Mr. Naru's room bringing the unconscious Mr. Mu. Coincidentally, Lord Neeson was also here as they just finished their meeting earlier with Kuznetsov. They eyed each other for a few seconds before Lord Mu asked, "Then what would you want us to do?" Surely, the file has a price, right?

"I will give you the file. I want you to stop disturbing us." He said in a grim tone. "You will leave Lily alone. You will not find her, you will not spy on her. Can't you see the suffering that she injured just because of certain research that she didn't even know existed a month ago?"

Silence filled the room. Seeing this, Zhou Jingren added. "The file that I have will surely satisfy you. However, I wanted you to delete everything about Lily. I want you to forget her existence from now."

"You— " Of course, the fact that the file was in Zhou Jingren's hands immediately caught his attention. "You have it in you?"

Zhou Jingren nodded in response.

"How is that possible?" Lord Naru asked.

"You have no idea what is possible." Zhou Jingren countered. During the call with Lily at Lilian's study, Lily already told him that the file was in Lilian and Fred's wedding portrait. She also told her that she will act just like what they originally planned. While Zhou Jingren was against the idea, Lily was convinced that this is the only way that they could escape an organization that they cannot defeat. And to fool everyone who might be listening to the call, Zhou Jingren told him that he was miles away from her. Of course, that was only a secret code that meant he will be coming to get her.

That's right. The Order is not something that both Lily and Zhou Jingren can defeat. This was something that they realized when they discovered that the order not only holds most high ranking military officers in every country. They are also doing some research and enhancements in military weapons and drugs.

While Zhou Jingren was adamant that they fight and destroy them from within, Lily wanted the opposite. She wanted to live away from all this. Until now, he could still remember Lily's gentle eyes when she said that all she wanted in this world was to be with him and Kaen.

She no longer wanted to have wealth and influence. All she wanted is to survive and live a peaceful life with them.

Of course, Zhou Jingren insisted that this is very difficult to achieve. Not after they provoke these people. However, Lily only said that she trusts him to cooperate with her plans.

Because of this, Lily weaved a highly complicated plan that not only required them to get hurt, it also required each other's trust. They needed to be away from each other, act as if they were alone, and trust that they would finish everything that they were supposed to do.

Of course, this doesn't mean that they will leave this organization without some damages here and there.

"Are you certain?" Lord Neeson's mind was only focused on the file. In his mind, the file was one of the reasons why Lily was valued. Without the file, they could let her go as long as she followed some small conditions. Seeing Zhou Jingren's steely eyes, Lord Neeson cleared his throat. "How about Lily? You do know that Kuznetsov mansion is a fortress, yes?"

"I will take care of that." Zhou Jingren answered.

"That is not something that we could just agree because you wanted it. We needed time to think."

"I don't have time. There are now five members of the council. All three of you are here. That is already the majority. You can decide now or I will destroy the file in front of you!"

"You— " Lord Naru was speechless. However, he still felt that something is amiss in the man's words. "What are you planning to do?"

Zhou Jingren responded with a low chuckle. "As I said… I will not do a thing as long as you withdraw your forces that are watching Lily's family including his brother, father, her friends as well as my aunt and uncle. Of course… I want you to take care of Kuznetsov's forces that are also nearby waiting to pounce on their prey."

"Kuznetsov has his people in her family?"

"Naturally. He is a killer. He should have assigned these people to follow them aside from The Order's people."The trio turned silent.

"Give us…"

"I don't have time." Zhou Jingren interrupted the calm Lord Mu. "I wanted to hear your answers now. I wanted to hear you order your people now. I wanted to hear you tell them that you will no longer pursue Lily and her family."

"That— "

"I agree." Lord Neeson said. "As long as you can give us the file. I will agree." He then looked at the people next to him. "We all know how that research could change the world. Once we get our hands on that research about genes, we could discover every possible way to treat a person just by focusing on their DNA. We would be able to enhance strength, speed, and mental capacities. I say this is more important than a woman who refuses to work for us."

Zhou Jingren sneered inwardly. Lord Neeson's words sounded righteous and just, however, who was he trying to fool? If they could discover ways to treat patients using their DNA, isn't it right that they could also create viruses that affect only a certain type of people based on their DNA?
