Chapter 1234 - How great it would be if they never had misunderstandings.
As she watched the man in the apron busy himself, Pei Ge felt warmth and peace.
This was a feeling that she had never felt with another man.
Despite how well Egger treated her, she just did not develop feelings for him.
No matter what his feelings for her were, she never… felt her heartbeat accelerate for him, yet she could easily feel it when she was with Ji Ziming…
As she thought of this, the expression on her face softened.
How great would it have been if there had been no misunderstandings between them?
How great would it have been if all those things had not happened then?
How great would it have been… if there had been no Qiao Jingyun between them?
He wanted to ruin her fake face whenever he saw her with Pei Ge’s face.
No one other than his woman herself had the right to carry that face!

Very well. He must meet that person!
He would like to know who dared to get between him and his woman!
…
“Boss, Miss Pei has been held captive by Mr. Ji in his private lodge…”
In the dark, Pei Ge’s look-alike sat in a medium-sized room and took the call expressionlessly.
Instead of her sweet and docile disposition, she now looked deterring.
This made her face look distinct.
“I know; I’ve been keeping tabs. He has her completely sealed off, so I can’t get in.”
“You’re coming over?!”
“Alright. I understand.”
…
New York.
“Seems that it’s time for me to take a trip back to China…”
