Chapter 429 Diamond
Two days after the news of Fu Jin taking over Kim Empire spread out, another news broke out.
The new boss of Kim Empire or what was now known as Moon Empire was inviting all the big bosses of the other crime organizations to talk about business. It was said that the reception would be held in a grand banquet hall and would cater to every prominent family in the black market.
Just how proud was that man to call for other leaders who were already running around the black market while he was still in his diapers?
Some people said that this was an act of arrogance. That new leader wanted everyone to know that Moon Empire would still be as prominent as the previous Kim Empire when it was owned by the Kim Family.
"Fu Jin? Isn"t he…" Mia"s question was interrupted by her husband"s words.
"That woman must be the one who has taken over Kim Empire!"
Mia instantly frowned at her husband"s words. "Peter, I think it"s time we tell uncle about this... He must take care of that woman as soon as possible."
"You think it"s that easy? She is the Matriarch"s granddaughter! The Elders also know about her existence. If uncle forces Natalie to act against her granddaughter, it will only cause chaos!"
"Hmp! If the Elders care about the Matriarch that much, then why did they let uncle hurt that w.a.n.g Ruo?" Mia scoffed irritably.
Peter instantly shook his head at Mia. "I never thought that you would be this stupid, Mia. The Elders turned a blind eye at uncles deeds back then because that woman is a.s.sociated with someone from another powerful organization. She has married Jiang Yue"s father in secret. That marriage is still legal till now. Then, she ran away to have a fake marriage with that Jiang person."
"Who are you calling stupid? I am the future Matriarch! I can"t be stupid!" Mia pouted. "Let"s not mind that Fu Jin and Jiang Yue for now… neither that Moon Empire nor that person in the black market cannot be compared to the Vercello Family."
"Uncle said…"
"Master… Madam… a parcel was delivered under Master"s name." They heard one of the maids knock the door to Peter"s study.
"Come in," Mia said prompting the maid to come inside the room. The maid then gave a low bow before presenting a box to Mia.
"The security has already checked this. It is safe." The maid respectfully informed them, her head still lowered.
Mia s.n.a.t.c.hed the box before she gestured the maid to leave the room.
"It had no name card whatsoever," Mia stated while turning the box.
"Open it," Peter said. The box was not that big. It was about five inches, wrapped in silk with moon and sun patterns. He watched as Mia opened the box and was somewhat surprised to see an elegant wooden box beneath the silk wrap.
Mia instantly handed the box to her husband and intently watched him open it. The couple"s eyes widened in surprise when they saw what was inside the box.
"A diamond!" Mia blurted out, her eyes beaming. It was a piece of sparkling, flawless and colorless diamond about the size of a thumb. "Wow! Who could be so generous to send this?"
Peter instantly furrowed his brows as his hand got a hold on the diamond. It was real! Then, his eyes spotted a small card. He instantly picked it up and read it.
"Who is the sender?" Mia asked when she noticed her husband"s face darkening.
"Fu Jin." Those two words seemed to sound like a clap of thunder in Mia"s ears. "He is inviting us to a banquet. His twenty-fourth birthday is coming up in a week and he wants us to attend."
Mia raised an eyebrow at her husband. "He wants us to go to the island of the Kim Family?"
He nodded. "Do you think he knows that we are from the Vercello Family?"
"No, he doesn"t. If my guess is right, then he should have sent an invite to every prominent family in Emerald Country."
"Including Jiang Yue"s grandmother?"
"Yes… including Natalie Vercello and Antonio Pardi." He nodded as his lips curled into a smile.
"This should be interesting..."
"Then, should we ask uncle if we can go?" Mia"s lips also turned into a smile as she held the diamond in her hand.
"Of course, we will go. Such an extravagant invitation. We should not lose face, after all, I represent the Doctors a.s.sociation in Emerald Country. I should uphold my position and show them who is the real ruler of this country."
Seeing her husband"s evil smile, Mia"s eyes were instantly clouded with l.u.s.t as she walked towards him and sat on his lap. She then looped her arms around his neck and leaned towards him, giving him a clear view of her enchanting cleavage.
Not long after that, the sounds of clothes being ripped was heard from the room followed by echoes of panting and moans.
