Huo Third Master instructed his men to keep an eye on Huo Heng.

  When he found out that Huo Heng had gone to B City personally and had taken the KTV owner’s car recorder, he felt a trace of uneasiness.

  At that time, he wanted to see her dash camera but was asked to wait for a day or two.

  However, Huo Heng got someone to steal the memory card.

  He asked the woman he had locked up and she confessed that she had revealed some secrets some time ago.

  Huo Third Master’s handsome face slowly darkened.

  He almost strangled the woman to death. If it wasn’t for the fact that they were related, he wouldn’t have let her lice until today!

  At first, he had not known his identity.

  He had always thought that he was the Huo family’s Third Master.

  He had been the most outstanding among the children of the Huo family since he was young.

  Of course he had put in more effort than anyone else.

  He was ambitious and wanted to become the Huo family’s heir.

  Everything was going smoothly.

  But one day, this woman suddenly appeared.

  She told him that she was his biological mother.

  He did not believe her and asked for a paternity test.

  The result made him feel like he had fallen into an abyss.

  How could he be the son of a crazy woman?

  The woman had asked him for money. If he did not give her money, she would expose his identity.

  He thought of ending a woman’s life, but that was his mother.

  He could not bear to do so.

  Instead, he brought her to B City and would give her a lot of money every year.

  The woman naturally understood as well that if he fell, that would cut off her source of income too.

  As such, she was laid low for years.

  But he couldn’t help but feel uneasy. The matter of his status weighed down on him.

  He was afraid that his secret would be revealed and he would cast out.

  As a result, he had done many wrong things!

  Once a person did something wrong, there was no turning back!

  “Third Master, Third Master, what should we do now?” The person who spoke was Huo Third Master’s confidant.

  Although Huo Third Master never told his confidant his secrets, many things were done by his confidant, so the latter could naturally guess his relationship with that woman.

  If Huo Heng had taken away the memory card, Huo Third Master’s identity would be exposed.

  Huo Third Master raised his slender fingers and pinched his nose bridge. “There are only two choices.”


  Huo Third Master glanced at his confidant, who immediately nodded in understanding.

  …


  While Huo Heng was still in B City, Huo Third Master brought his men to Old Master Huo’s garden where he was recuperating.

  After Old Master Huo almost had a stroke because of the drug, he moved to another secluded garden owned by the Huo family.

  The courtyard was full of Huo Third Master’s men.

  Huo Third Master called Old Master Huo’s lawyer over.

  Old Master Huo was playing with birds in the garden when he suddenly saw Huo Third Master coming over aggressively with a group of people. He frowned.

  “Third Brother, what is this?”


  Huo Third Master looked at Old Master Huo. “Father, I have a document that requires your signature.”


  “What document? Let me see it.”


  “Father, let’s talk in the room.”


  Seeing Huo Third Master’s strong attitude, Old Master Huo frowned unhappily. “What’s wrong with the two of you recently? Do you want to bully me just because I’m old?”


  Huo Third Master didn’t have time to waste with the Old Master. He glanced at his confidant behind him, who immediately led his men forward to grab Master Huo’s arms and dragged him into the house.

  “Butler! Butler!”


  When the butler saw this, he immediately went forward. “Third Master, what are you doing?”


  “Butler, I need to talk to Old Master. You can wait at the door.”


  The butler wanted to call for help, but realized that the courtyard was full of Third Master’s men.

  He wanted to chase after them, but the Third Master’s men subdued him.

  Old Master Huo was escorted into the study by Huo Third Master’s men.

  “Father, this is a document. Please sign it.”


  Old Master Huo glanced down. “Change my will?” After reading the contents of the document, Old Master Huo was furious. “Third Brother, you’re so bold to have me transfer my fortune to you unconditionally. Are you crazy? Have you considered your other siblings in the family?”


  “Third Brother, I thought you were someone I could trust in the past, but you…”


  Before Old Master Huo could finish speaking, Huo Third Master interrupted him with a cold expression. “Father, if you don’t sign it today, you won’t be able to leave this study!”


  Old Master Huo did not expect Huo Third Master to threaten him.

  His hands trembled in anger.

  “You’re actually such a heartless animal like your Fourth Brother?”


  “Father, please sign and stamp this document.”


  Huo Third Master’s confidant took out a sharp dagger and pressed it against Old Master Huo’s back.

  Old Master Huo looked at Huo Third Master in disbelief.

  His most beloved son wanted his life for the inheritance?

  Ha!

  He had lived so badly in this life!

  Just as the Old Master was about to say something, the study door was suddenly pushed open. His subordinate reported hurriedly, “Third Master, Huo Heng came with the police.”


  Huo Third Master’s expression darkened.

  The confidant controlled Old Master Huo and said to him, “Third Master, leave quickly. I’ll stop them from behind.”


  Huo Third Master glanced at the document on the table, and before he could ask Old Master Huo to sign it, he quickly walked out.

  …


  Xia Cha took a morning flight to the capital of S Country.

  She packed her luggage, opened the apartment door, and prepared to leave.

  The moment she did, someone moved forward and covered her mouth and nose.

  She struggled a few times before her vision darkened and she fainted.

  …


  Huo Third Master escaped with his men.

  His other team kidnapped Xia Cha.

  Even if he could not get the Huo family’s assets, the assets he had accumulated over the years were enough for him and Xia Cha to live for the rest of their lives.

  He left Harbor City with the unconscious Xia Cha.

  A group of people stood by the pier.

  Huo Heng stood in front while Jian Ming stood behind him.

  “Young Master, why did you let Third Master go?”


  “If I didn’t guess wrongly, he has a secret drugstore under his control. As long as that drugstore survives for a day, many innocent lives will be harmed.”


  Jian Ming understood very quickly. Although Young Master had allowed the tiger return to the mountain, he wouldn’t let the tiger leave his sight.

  Huo Heng only retracted his gaze when the speedboat disappeared. He looked at Jian Ming and asked, “Where is she?”


  Jian Ming soon realized who Huo Heng was asking about.

  …


  Xia Cha slowly woke up.

  It was already dark and the curtains of the room were drawn, she did not know where she was at the moment.

  She turned on the bedside lamp.

  Looking around, she thought that she was in a hotel room.

  Thinking of how she had been ambushed the moment she went out, Xia Cha’s heart tightened.

  Who had done such a daring thing in front of her apartment door?

  Xia Cha hurriedly looked down at herself.

  Her clothes were still on.

  She quietly got out of bed and opened the door.

  This was a presidential suite and there was a dim yellow light in the living room.

  Xia Cha walked out with her eyebrows furrowed. At that moment, the door opposite was opened.

  A tall figure came out.

  That person seemed to have just taken a bath. His hair was wet and he was wearing a black shirt that he had just worn. The buttons were not buttoned and she could vaguely see his firm chest and well-defined abdominal muscles.

  He looked down as he buttoned his shirt.

  Seeming to have sensed something, he looked up.

  Their eyes met.

  He reacted quickly, his handsome face calm. “You’re awake?”


  Xia Cha could not react in time.

  She had not expected Huo Heng to kidnap her.

  Seeing Xia Cha’s slightly furrowed eyebrows, Huo Heng explained briefly, “Third Master has exposed himself. With his feelings for you, he was probably going to take you with him. You happened to be leaving today, so I got someone to pretend to be you and go to the airport. I guessed right. His men took the girl who was pretending to be you away.”


  When Xia Cha saw the scar on Huo Third Master’s left shoulder, she had already expected that he was different from what she thought of him.

  She was not surprised that he had revealed his true self.

  However, to her surprise, Huo Heng was already so mature and capable.

  “Thank you.”


  Huo Heng pursed his lips and didn’t say anything else.

  He buttoned his shirt and raised his hand to brush off his slightly wet short hair as he walked toward the door of the suite.

  After taking a few steps, he seemed to have thought of something and said to her, “I’ve already asked Jian Ming to change your flight to tomorrow. Call your sister later.”


  He did not turn to look at her.

  With that said, she pulled the door open and left.

  Hearing the sound of the door closing, Xia Cha looked away, went back into the house, and turned on her phone.

  Indeed, there were several missed calls.

  Xia Cha called Junyuan and Xia Yanran back.

  After finding out that she was fine, Xia Yanran and Junyuan finally stopped worrying.

  …


  Xia Cha did not sleep well that night.

  Many memories appeared in her mind.

  There were those with Huo Ze and also Huo Third Master.

  She still clearly remembered when she first met Huo Third Master. It had been raining that day and her heel had been stuck in the manhole. He had crouched beside her and taken out her heel for her.

  She really did not expect him to be so ruthless to hurt his nephew!

  Xia Cha closed her eyes and turned sideways, thinking about Huo Heng.

  After experiencing so many things, Huo Heng had matured.

  He deserved a better woman.

  Xia Cha did not know when she had fallen asleep, but she only woke up when there was a knock on the door.

  Jian Ming stood at the door. “Miss Xia, the plane will take off in another hour and a half.”


  “I’ll pack right away.”


  “I have something on later, I’ll get Xiao Li to send you to the airport.”


  “Alright.”


  Jian Ming was Huo Heng’s executive assistant and Xiao Li was one of Jian Ming’s assistants.

  He was a rather clever young man.

  When he sent Xia Cha to the airport, he kept trying to chat with her.

  As they chatted, they somehow talked about Huo Heng and Tang Yue.

  “That Miss Tang thought that President Huo was really interested in her. She often acted arrogantly in front of us. Miss Xia, guess who was really with Miss Tang?”


  Xia Cha’s heart skipped a beat. “Who was it?”


  “It’s a person who is very ugly, has a pockmarked face, so much so that people feel like vomiting just looking at him. When Tang Yue was taken away that day, President Huo let her see that person. Her expression was so interesting!”
