Wayne had to agree with Jie’s words. He couldn’t possibly refute it since he had seen it himself how his cousin’s death affected Yang Ziyi. It was almost like something in her also died that day. Perhaps, her brother, Yang Zishu’s death actually took a part of her as well.

  Yang Zishu’s death had given a sudden shock to both Wayne and Jie back then. Even though they were just good childhood friends but Yang Ziyi was his only sister. It was a given that she’s the one who lost not just a friend but also a brother and her family along with him. A teenager lost her whole family in one day. It was pitiful.

  "You said you have something to discuss with me," Jie tried to shift the topic of discussion since the ambiance in the room had turned quite gloomy.

  "You were right." Wayne’s ambiguous answer made Jie arch his brows in question.

  "Glad to know that I was right but what are we talking about?" Wayne rolled his eyes at him and punched his shoulder.

  "About your fake mother……" This single sentence finally made Jie straightened up. looking all serious. "I really thought back then it was Zhou Ning who must have tried to kill you through that accident. But I was wrong. It really didn’t turn out to be her."

  "I know. I asked her in prison yesterday. She straight up denied it. She said the same thing that I told you, she couldn’t kill me because she didn’t want Jun to hate her." Jie answered solemnly.

  How could he forget the accident that shattered his life? It almost cost him Azalea’s life.

  "Did you find out who was behind it?"

  Wayne silently observed Jie’s expressions. Reluctantly, he dropped a file before Jie. "Try not to be…… overwhelmed by this."

  Jie picked up the file and looked through the content. His eyes widened and he turned to Wayne with a look of disbelief on his face. "This can’t be right." His voice came out weak and a bit uncertain.

  "I have spent a lot of effort to look through this matter. I can guarantee you that the content of this file is 100 percent correct." Wayne reassured Jie with his words.

  Feeling a piercing headache coming on, Jie rubbed his forehead feeling exasperated. Never could he have imagined that the person behind that accident would be…… Sigh!

  "But why?" He voiced out feeling disgusted.

  "Jealousy is like a double-edged sword. You never know when it can point at your throat." Wayne answered languidly. "From what I gathered…… That accident was also done in a fit of rage over jealousy."

  "Jealous? Jealous of what? Ha? What exactly could make someone envious to this extent?" Jie roared helplessly.

  Wayne patted his shoulder and continued, "Do you remember how you received a call on your way and you had left Azalea in the car there alone?" Jie nodded his head slightly. "You were told that some important investors wanted to see you. But did you meet any investors that day?" Jie’s eyes went round and he shook his head in negation. "You are smart enough to figure out why the person who called you specifically asked you to get off the car right there. You could have let Azalea taken the taxi."

  Jie stared at Wayne with wide eyes and asked hesitantly, "The target was Azalea from the beginning. Wasn’t she?"

  "Bingo! You were never the target. It was always your sister who was thought to be having an affair with you. That’s why I said, jealousy is dangerous." Wayne still spoke calmly.

  "Dangerous? That accident almost killed my sister!" Jie was angry at his understatement and more so at the person behind all of this mess.

  "Do you need a drink to calm down a bit?" Wayne was trying to calm him a bit since Jie looked like he was about to murder someone.

  "No…… I don’t want a drink." Jie glared at Wayne as he refused to drink. He had to drive himself later. It wouldn’t be right to drink and drive.

  "It’s your wife who needs to cut back on alcohol. Why are you acting like you are pregnant?" Wayne whispered softly to himself and when Jie narrowed his eyes at him suspiciously, he immediately said, "I was saying you should have a few sips. It might help you a bit."

  "Give me the address," Jie wasn’t asking for it, he was rather ordering Wayne.

  "You’d be reckless. So, no. I’m not giving you anything." Wayne refused plainly knowing Jie’s temper. People might take him as the nice guy but he did not. He was one of the people who knew what kind of rigorous training Jie had in his early years.

  "Wayne, don’t make me angry," Jie warned Wayne as he pulled his crisp collar making it crumple up.
