Chapter 90 - The Victim Involved (1)
…
Rong Yan’s schedule for the following day was extremely packed and he was so angered by Luo Anning that he looked rather unapproachable. He did not show any signs of mellowing down since the morning started.
He was scheduled for a negotiation with MK Bank, which would concern the future development and expansion of Baina International in the hospitality industry of England. They could not afford to make any mistakes at all.
Xu Zhiyuan had long prepared the necessary documents for the meeting which was held in the Baina International’s branch office in London. Rong Yan only discovered that MK Bank had sent a female representative, when he arrived.
Upon seeing the petulant expression on Rong Yan’s face, Xu Zhiyuan knew that he was furious. Hence, he quickly explained, “Young Master, this is the heiress of MK Bank, the daughter of Marquis Henry York, Laurent York.”
Upon sight of Rong Yan, Laurent York was instantly amazed. She stood up gracefully and extended her hand to introduce herself. “Hello, I’m the representative of MK Bank, Laurent York.”
She had snow-white skin, dark brown hair, dark green eyes and pronounced facial features which were unique to Westerners and Caucasians. She was undeniably gorgeous.
Her slender body was covered in the latest Chanel suit which accentuated her curves and made her look much more attractive.
Laurent was a very elegant woman, as evidenced by her sartorial choices, mannerisms and poise. Putting her identity aside, her good looks alone had brought her plenty of privileges.
Rong Yan’s face remained petulant and he did not shake her hand. Instead, he nodded and said, “I’m Rong Yan.”
Laurent had long heard about him and was aware of his habits as well. Knowing that he shied away from women and often kept a distance from them, she did not take it to heart.
It was time for the meeting to begin since the key personnel of Baina and MK Bank were all present.
Although Rong Yan was not in a good mood, he had always been stern and shrewd when it came to business negotiations.
His words were sharp and his logic was clear. He would often deal directly with the key issues of the situation at hand and hit the nail right on its head. More often than not, he would achieve the ideal goal of maximizing profits for the company.
Laurent York was defeated by Rong Yan’s dominance and immediately signed the contract.
Laurent smiled gracefully and said, “Young Master Rong, I hope MK Bank and Baina International will have a happy cooperation.
“Ditto.”
Laurent York left the office before Rong Yan did. When she saw the handsome Asian man who was there to pick her up, she smiled and leaped towards him to hug him and kiss him unrestrainedly.
The man showed a tinge of disdain in his eyes which Rong Yan noticed, regardless of how well the former hid it.
Rong Yan sneered and turned around to get inside his car. He decided to stay out of it since it was none of his business.
…
In a small, remote inn in the suburbs of London.
A lady was seated in the middle of a tiny, dark and enclosed room, tied to a chair with her hair all messy and unkempt, and her limbs restricted. Her mouth was sealed with tape too.
She had a beautiful face and flawless, fair skin.
All that was left in her clear and bright eyes at this moment, was a tinge of solace and despair which made her eyes seem jaded and empty.
She had been abducted and confined to that room for three days without any food or drink. For the past three days, she was put through brutal abuse that slowly eroded her willpower.
The door was opened with a creak and a woman strutted inside wearing a beautiful pair of stilettos that caught the victim’s eyes.
