Paul had even arranged for a plane, ready to fly Moses back to his country, when, on the eve of the plane’s arrival, Moses received a message. The message came from the butler, who was across the ocean, claiming to have seen early news on a website that an authoritative media outlet in M Country had exposed Gan Yuan’s identity.
Due to the time difference of several hours, it was already early morning in M Country, while it was still the middle of the night in A Country.
Upon seeing the news link sent by the butler, Moses decided to change his plans immediately and return to A Country.
He knew that once the news spread, it would be akin to dropping a heavy bomb in A Country, and the person most affected would undoubtedly be Gan Yuan.
After flying through the night for several hours and rushing to the Royal Palace regardless of the manhunt, Moses’s intention was very clear, he just wanted to take her away before she came under attack.
Unfortunately, by the time he arrived at the Royal Palace, she had already stood in front of the public and confessed everything.
They had searched all the way to find Gan Yuan outside a pharmacy, and Jessica had fired the gun to prevent the police from injuring her.
With a frown, Jessica turned around, wanting to explain on behalf of Moses.
Moses’s voice rang out, cutting off Jessica’s explanation like a cold, sharp arrow.
Paul stepped on the brake, and the car came to a jarring stop on the rugged coastal road.
With gritted teeth, Jessica turned her face away, her fists clenched tightly. She was furious with Moses; not explaining now would only deepen Gan Yuan’s misunderstanding of him.
Sitting in the driver’s seat, Paul felt helpless but could only bite his lip and tightly grip the steering wheel in silence.
Due to inertia, Gan Yuan’s body lurched forward, hitting the seat in front of her. Before she could collide, Moses’s hand reached out and grabbed her arm.
As the car stopped, his grip on her hand did not loosen; with one hand holding hers, his other hand reached out to wipe her wound.
Gan Yuan pushed him away fiercely and jumped out of the car, pulling the door open.
Moses got out from the other side, with Paul and Jessica also hastily climbing out of the car.
He called out in a deep and stern voice.
Gan Yuan stopped in her tracks and turned to look at the man beside the car.
"Isn’t this enough for you? You’ve got what you wished for by separating me and Huangfu Jue, isn’t that enough?"
The man’s face was as cold as a glacier, his voice filled with chill, "Of course it’s not enough!"
"Then what else do you want from me?" Gan Yuan roared.
"Come back with me, do what you’re supposed to do."
"What if I refuse? Are you going to kill me?"
"No!" Moses stood beside the car, his eyes narrowed as he watched her, "I will destroy this country, kill people in the troubled areas, create explosions in shopping malls... I’ll ruin everything he cherishes piece by piece—his country, his people, the peace!"
Gan Yuan raised the gun in her hand to her temple.
"This life was given to me; now, I am giving it back to you!"
"Do you think your death will solve the problem?" Moses sneered, "I will still do it, and I will do it even more ruthlessly and thoroughly."
Gan Yuan gripped the handgun tightly, lifting it to point at him.
Paul and Jessica rushed forward, shielding Moses.
With trembling fingers clutching the gun, Gan Yuan clenched her teeth and hurled the gun at him.
Jessica raised her hand and caught the gun thrown at her, and behind them, Moses let out a slight sigh of relief before he barked an order.
After standing still with clenched fists for two seconds, Gan Yuan stepped forward. Instead of returning to the back seat to sit with Moses, she walked over to the front passenger seat, opened the door, sat down forcefully, and slammed the car door shut.
