Entangled: Crisscross Chapter 98
Advertisement
Zhang Ying trembled. The woman in Edward's arms was clearly a foreigner. She hasn't seen this woman in the past. Moreover, Edward never mentioned knowing a foreigner.
IAmWatchingYou123Heart: Goddess, this woman was really drunk, she was slurring her words. She had been clinging to CEO Fu and calling him Brother Ed. Is this CEO Fu's sister?
Zhang Ying clenched her hands into fists. She immediately opened her phone and dialed Edward's number. After a few rings, she ended the call. Edward didn't answer.
Should she just go to the Fu Family mansion and confront him? But what if…
She gritted her teeth and dialed his number again. Luckily, the man answered this time.
"Hey… why are you still awake?" Edward asked the moment he picked up the phone. No hi's or hellos. His voice sounded hoarse. "Yingying?"
"I — I was waiting for you." She sighed inwardly when she noticed that there was no background noise- it was completely silent. This only means that Edward wasn't outside, right? Then the club and the image….
The relief that flashed in her eyes vanished when she heard someone whimper on the other line.
"Ah, Yingying, I still have an important meeting. I will…"
"Who is that?" Zhang Ying asked when she heard someone cleared their throat. "Is that a woman?"
'Brother Ed….'
Zhang Ying's eyes widened. "Brother Ed? Who is that?" she asked. "Did someone just call you brother Ed?" Zhang Ying couldn't stop her hands front trembling so much, she had to put her phone on a loudspeaker and put it on top of her dresser.
"Yingying… I don't… let me explain."
"Explain? Where are you now? You are not in your office, are you?"
"Yingying… it was a family friend. I receive a call from my mother. She asked me to help Athy who is currently drunk in— "

"Athy?" Zhang Ying's yelled. "You are calling her nickname?" This only meant that he was close with that woman? That he knew the woman on a very personal level?
Just who is she?
Zhang Ying fought the urge to demand an answer. She needed to be calm and logical about this matter.
"Yingying… we should talk in person. Athy is really drunk right now. I will come home as soon as I can."
With that, Edward ended the call.
He didn't even wait for her to say anything.
Zhang Ying's jaw dropped. She was speechless. Athy? Who the hell is Athy? She opened her image on her phone again.
The woman in Edward's had long legs and a beautiful figure. Sadly, she couldn't clearly see her face.
'Good. Very good! That Madam Fu is really evil!' Zhang Ying fumed inwardly. Of course, she didn't miss Edward's words about his mother telling him to help a woman. For some reason, she couldn't help but wonder if Madam Fu is trying to set his son up. She gritted her teeth as she started biting the nails on her finger.
"No! Impossible!"
How could Madam Fu choose another woman for Edward? What if... Madam Fu is thinking that she isn't suitable for Edward anymore?
Soon she started pacing inside her room. Madam Fu is akin to the Matriarch in this city. She came from a rich family and even made her husband changed his surname for her. She was really domineering and cunning. From Zhang Ying's perspective, Madam Fu is a caring mother. She loved Edward and would do everything to make Edward happy. Choosing Edward's wife is not something that she would do.
She knew Edward loved Zhang Ying. If she forced Edward to marry another woman, her son is not going to be happy at all. And her son would hate her.

But what it… Edward agrees?
"No! That will not happen." Edward would never leave her. That's just impossible. Edward loves her and he will continue loving her despite everything. Even if she isn't the heir of the Zhang Corp, Edward would still love her. So what if she isn't the heir? She started earning her own money when she was really young! Right now, she had hundreds of millions in her bank account, just from her various projects.
Moreover, status and money don't matter to Edward.
He was not that type of person!
But his mother was different.
The entire region knew Mrs. Fu as an iron lady. She would always prefer benefits over love and happiness. She is ruthless and would never hesitate to leave anyone that wouldn't give her any benefits. Before Sera became the heir, Madam Fu was really cordial towards Zhang Ying. She isn't warm and sweet, but she is cordial and respectful. But since Sera arrived, the woman had been very cold towards Zhang Ying.
Until now, Zhang Ying couldn't forget what Madam Fu told her at her office.
Just the thought of it is making her rage.
That woman is clearly looking down on her.
She sat on her bed and opened the drawer on her bedside table. Her eyes landed on the medicine and vitamin box inside the drawer. Inside the box were some of her vitamins and contraceptive pills. She debated for a few seconds before determination flashed in her eyes.
If she gets pregnant now, the Fu Family would never abandon her.
However, getting pregnant would also affect her career in the show business industry. Giving birth would not only affect her physically. It would also affect her livelihood. This matter is really hard.
She sighed and closed the drawer. Then she lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling.
A burst of mocking laughter escaped her lips.
Just now, she was acting like her crazy mother.
The sadness in Zhang Ying's eyes vanished. It was replaced by coldness.
She was beautiful, smart, and talented. How could she act like her insecure mother?
Disgust flashed in her eyes. She is very confident in her skills, but she doesn't completely trust Edward's mother. Jaw's clenched, Zhang Ying squinted her eyes.
That woman… needed to vanish!

Artemis
"Let them go, Dante." I whip my head to see a small boy standing the clearing with blonde hair and a green cloak hanging from shoulders. He isn't very tall however he holds his stance well. He doesn't seem to be more than Cassandra's age. Maybe 12 at most. I abruptly turn my head back hearing the man holding a sword to my throat chuckling with a sinister grin. "Oh, poor boy, what are you go to do about it?" The yellow teeth gleam as he begins stalking towards the boy who does not look the least bit fazed. I look around at the other men who are following the leader. I pull Cassandra tighter to my back as I take small steps back. I keep my eye trained on the men but also fear for the naive boy. "Do you really want to test me Dante?" He asks raising a single eyebrow. For a minute the men stop their movements. I see their hesitation for fear... Fear of what? I take the moment to stick Cassandra behind a nearby tree. She crouches down while I pull my sword out from its place. "How do you know my name?" The scoundrel raises his sword challenging towards the boy before taking a final step towards him. Then the unexpected happens. The young boy chuckles so darkly. It sounded almost... demonic. All the men instinctively raise their swords. "Oh Dante, I didn't know your name... but you know someone dear to me." "Spit it out boy!" The once grinning man is now looking around frantically. I continue my eyes scanning the small boy. He looks directly me and gives me a small nod before saying one word that caused all hell to breaks loose. "Artemis." Artemis is not an ordinary girl. She grew up in the wilderness after being shunned due to unique abilities and her different physical attributes. Blessed with an ability that scared others, she roams the wild with only her guarded one. That is until she stumbles into a situation that brings her in front of a prince.
