New Life : A Second Chance Chapter 309

Kay listened attentively as Ramona began her story.
"My name is Reimonna Sheng Xue, and I was the wife of Sheng Pihua. Our marriage was a happy one. At first. Then he just got so busy, especially after Kyle was born. Then ... then I heard he had a mistress," she said, her eyes looking into the distance.
"Sheng Xian was the one that told me about that, and even where they would meet up. I went to confront him, bringing Kyle along. But ..." she sighed, "He had already left. All over the bedroom ... there ... well, there were things. His things were still there. It was so obvious what had happened in the room."
Kay was puzzled when she heard all of this.
If Pihua was having an affair, why was he so devastated over her supposed death? Also, he was still unmarried now. Wouldn't he have married his mistress the moment the mourning period was over? And what about the fire? What happened then? How did it happen?
Although she was itching to know the whole story, she reigned in her curiosity and impatience. So, she waited patiently as Ramona continued.
"I thought that was the last of it but no," she said, her face reflecting intense sadness, "When I tried to go out of the bedroom, I found it locked. Then his voice came from beyond the door, laughing while saying goodbye."
"I didn't understand what he meant at first. I thought it was a normal goodbye. Until I smelled the smoke," Ramona's voice hitched, "I managed to escape, somehow. I have been hiding with Kyle ever since then."
Kay was getting more of a headache listening to this.
The house certainly did burn down, but there had been two charred bodies found. A woman and a child. They identified the female corpse as Sheng Xue, as there was the gold bracelet that had been a gift to her from Pihua on their wedding anniversary.

There was too much plot going on. Obviously, the couple had been the victim of a very intricate plot to get Kyle out of the way. The CEO's chair was in danger. But why was Sheng Xian looking for Kyle when it was obvious that they didn't want to be found or even be involved in the fight for the chair?
Kay shook her head.
That was a mystery to be solved in another time. For now, Little Kyle's safety was of paramount importance.
"Why would Sheng Xian want Kyle then?" Kay asked.
"For the succession, of course," Ramona answered.
"But the Sheng believes that you and Kyle died in the fire," Kay pointed out.
Ramona looked at her in shock, "Died? Us? But we didn't. I don't understand."
Since she ran, she never looked at newspapers or kept up with what was happening with the Shengs. She had felt so hurt by the betrayal of her husband that she cut everything off. Even going to another state to cover her tracks.
She never touched anything that could tie her to the Shengs and she didn't even contact her friends or relatives. She had been an ordinary person before marrying Pihua, so surviving on a limited budget and working was not a problem.
She truly was in the dark about what was currently going on with the Shengs.
Just when Kay was about to explain, her eyes got sharp when she noticed a glint in the window. She got up, pushed Ramona to the side and threw a projectile out. There was a muffled sound, the table bursting a bit when a bullet hit it, just barely missing Ramona.
"Milk!" Kay shouted, making Ramona - who was already in a state of shock, even more shocked.

"I .. there's some in the fridge," she stammered, worried at the sudden aggressiveness from the angel that had been in front of her.
Despite the seriousness of the situation, Kay couldn't help but laugh a bit, "Sorry, no."
Agent Milk burst in to the scene, while Oreo was already at the back.
"It's secure," Agent Milk said, as she stood at the doorway of the kitchen, gun in hand and in a ready position.
Ramona looked at the angel in front of her, then at the other girl looking so bad-ass at the doorway and she finally believed that they really weren't what they looked like initially.
"It was a sniper," Kay said, "We have to get Mrs. Fudge to a secure location."
Kay looked at Ramona and asked, "Are you okay?"
Ramona managed to croak out, "Yes."
"You'll have to follow us," Kay said firmly.
"Okay," Ramona replied meekly, "Let me get .."
Kay shook her head, "No. Leave everything behind. We have to go NOW."
"But .. but .." Ramona stammered again, but Kay was firm.
"Whatever you need, we can get for you later. For now, you need to get to safety. Do you want to make Kyle an orphan?"
That did it.
Ramona stood up, nodding. "Let's go."
