The Manipulated Villainess

Chapter 197 - I Will Do That Sacrifice



When Nicole regained her consciousness, she finds herself in a room, tied to a chair once more.

Was she perhaps... in a villa?

"You\'re awake."

She darted her eyes to the corner in the right when she heard a familiar voice. Then she saw Peter Jung making his way to her.

What happened before she lost her consciousness resurfaced in the Chairwoman\'s mind, making her struggle once again. Right now, she was more than eager to kill this monster!

Her mouth was still covered by duct tape and she can\'t say anything. However, Peter Jung walked closer and removed the tape for her.

"You monster!" she spatted in an instant. She could do nothing but glare at the psychopath with extreme anger in her eyes.

Peter Jung didn\'t say anything and only retreated to a single couch which was a few steps away from her.

"Have you no shame? How could you do that to Aston after everything you did to his family?!" Nicole Yang grunted. If possible, she really wished to tear that crazy man to pieces right now!

"Do you worried about your lover that much?" Peter Jung asked her. His voice was surprisingly calm and there seemed to be no mockery beneath it. "At least, you seem to have a sincere heart, Nicole."

All of a sudden, what Leon told her that day crossed her mind. Was that remark connected to her late mother?

"My mother also has a sincere heart. You\'re the one who let her down," she coldly stated. This made Peter Jung darted his eyes to her.

"Who tell you about that?" he snapped. "Leon\'s mother?"

"That\'s none of your business."

Peter Jung slightly smirked and rose from his seat. "Do you know why I like you? It\'s because you\'re quite daring at times and then weak at times. Your mother was also just like that."

"Don\'t underestimate me, Peter Jung," Nicole warned in a deadly low voice. "After what you did to Aston, I won\'t be satisfied even if I kill you."

Peter Jung glanced at her and shook his head. "Too bad. I never intended to kill you. Aston Kang is crazily in love with you and I know that to have him under my thumb, scaring him a bit is enough." He paused and with a little smile, he added, "Don\'t you see that it worked perfectly?"

"You never intended to kill me? Do you expect me to believe that? You\'re the one who turned my life into a mess!"

"If you just marry my son as planned, none of this won\'t happen," Peter Jung uttered. "You should be glad that you still live to see this day. If I really want you dead, you will already follow your parents many years ago."

"Are you saying that you can\'t bear to kill me because I\'m the daughter of the woman you used to love?" Nicole Yang scoffed. "How laughable."

Despite Nicole\'s constant mocking and rude remark, Peter Jung maintained his composure and never once raised his voice! It even made Nicole wondered what\'s wrong with the abusive Prime Minister!

"You can think however you want but remember this. I won\'t leave this world before I destroy the one who put me in this situation. In your case, as long as you behave, you will live. So, don\'t test my patience. You should know me well by now," Peter Jung said to her in a cold yet sincere tone. Then he walked out of the room.

The one who put him in this situation? Was he referring to Aston? Or maybe her stepmother.

As many things crossed her mind, anxiety rushed throughout Nicole.

Aston wasn\'t in a good situation when she recalled her last memory of him. What if he succumbs to his wounds? What if she didn\'t get the chance to see him again?!

When night arrived, the whole country already heard about the Chairwoman\'s abduction, Chairman Jun and Aston\'s serious condition. While the police were busy trying to find Nicole and Peter Jung, Nathan was in the hospital, staring at his friend who was in an ICU. Cassandra was also standing beside him.

"This is my fault," Nathan Woo muttered. "If only I get there sooner -"

"You track him and went there as soon as you received his message, Nathan. This isn\'t your fault," Cassandra reassured him. "If someone is to blame, it\'s Peter Jung. How can he be this cruel?"

Nathan Woo clenched his fist at the mere thought of that monster. "I won\'t forgive him. He will surely pay for this," he grunted.

Seeing the anxiety beneath his rage, Cassandra holds Nathan\'s hand. "Aston is tough and strong, Nathan. He will surely make it through this," she said in a soothing voice."

Soon, the couple heard the sound of footsteps that approached them. When they turned to the right, they saw Leon and Aria who just came back after meeting the doctor.

"What did the doctor say?" Nathan instantly asked them. However, the look on their faces already proved that it won\'t be good news!

"Anything can happen," Leon muttered. "All we can do is wait."

This was already expected. When Aston was taken to the hospital, he already lost too much blood. The doctor claimed that the wound on his head was quite severe and how it was already a miracle that he survived. But hearing it hit quite different.

Nathan Woo\'s face turned pale when he heard the news. Right now, the thirst for revenge was invading every corner of his body, almost making it impossible for him to resist!

If Peter Jung was to appear before him right now, he was sure that he won\'t hesitate to press the trigger of his handgun!

Meanwhile, Aria could barely maintain her ground as everything was too much for her. Things that happened right now were nightmares for her! The worst nightmares which she didn\'t want to happen even in her dream. When she almost fell as she felt dizzy, Leon holds her.

"You should rest. You won\'t last long if this goes on," Leon Jung muttered. He led her to a bench near a wall and made her sat while he crouched down beside her.

"Will Nicole be fine?" Aria asked him in a low voice which was barely above a whisper.

Leon Jung finds it too hard to respond! He didn\'t know how far would his father be willing to go. He truly had no idea!

"I will stop my father," he finally said, bracing himself. "I will find him and stop him no matter what. Even if that requires some sacrifice, I will do that sacrifice. I won\'t allow him to hurt others again."

"Leon... " Aria muttered, squeezing his sleeves. Her gaze hinted at concern and fear. She knew too well what the Prime Minister was capable of!

Leon Jung forced a little smile and holds her hand before he planted a kiss on it. "Don\'t worry. If there is someone who can stop him, that\'s me. I will do anything to let that happen."

Leon turned to Cassandra and stood up. "Please look after her for me. I will be back soon."

Cassandra Lim nodded. "Alright."

Leon briefly turned back to Aria and forced a little smile once more before he stormed out of the hospital. He must find his father no matter what. If not, there will soon be another victim.....
