Mark Of The Destiny - Chapter 316
“The same evidence which you have seen circulating over the internet. Any guesses who gave it to me?” the door to the media hall opened, and three men dressed in blue dragged Wu Sean, handcuffed, causing a frenzy between reporters. “Hi, Sean. Can you see me? Suyin here!”
Wu Sean yanked free his cuffed hands. Nose flaring in anger. “I have done nothing wrong. What’s the meaning of this?” Behind him Wu Sangui came barging in, thundering in anger. A team of cops following him. His eyes flickered on the giant screen.
“Breaking into a minister’s office, breaching the security, kidnapping, and defaming him is a non-bailable offense. My friends from the media have all witnessed this woman’s action. She didn’t even hesitate to break the laws and hire goons for personal motives. I, Wu Sangui, the Vice President of the nation, ask the law enforcement to investigate this woman and take her in custody–”
[ IDIOTS. BLOODY IDIOTS,]
The remaining words stuck inside Wu Sangui’s throat when he heard Alpha’s voice echoing in the room. His eyes scanning the hall in search of the dreaded one.
[Alpha we–]
[SHUT UP. How dare you to lie that Suyin is with you? She is in El Sandrios, and Wang Shi is with her. Do you have any idea what you have done? Not only you failed you killed that child, but because of your negligence, our years of hard work are about to destroy. Useless, you even failed to convince Huang not to send his military.]
Sean and Sangui were thunderstruck. Wasn’t it the conversation they had with Alpha? How did Suyin have the recording? His eyes collided with Suyin, and at that moment he understood she had played the same trick as him. The bug!
[Suyin pretended as if she’s against Wang Shi, and was planning against him in secret] Wu Sangui’s voice’s echoed in the hall, [We even got everything confirmed from her family–]
[But they made a fool of you, idiots. I had warned you before not to take Suyin lightly and keep me updated. But you lied.] The noise of Alpha’s huffing and breaking of glass was ear piercing and felt real. [Arg, tell me what is the situation there?]
[I have a plan. Just hear me–]
[YOU HEAR ME.] Alpha said, [After the release of the article under Suyin’s name, everyone is hoping for her to give a statement. Now leak the information of her child’s death and Wang Shi’s involvement in it, followed by fake news of her being missing. Just complete this. No mistake.]
Wu Sean and Sangui frowned. She had edited the recording and omitted the lines where Alpha had called her a weapon created by him.
…
“FAKE. SHE HAD MADE UP THIS.” Sangui snatched a mike from a reporter, “TELL ME HOW MUCH YOU GOT TO DEFAME US PUBLICALLY?”
“How much you’d have given me?” Suyin asked.
She shrugged, “When people ask me stupid questions, it’s my legal obligation to give a sarcastic remark as kicking in the groin on national television won’t look decent.”
“BLOODY BITCH–”
“DAD, PLEASE!” Sean came in front of his berserk father. His posture says he had given up already. “Stop it now. It’s of no use. If she has this recording, she’ll have many more.”
“You are right,” Suyin’s voice came from behind, “But above that I have doc.u.ments which I got from Tamis’s laptop, proving you and your father were working with him to overthrow President Huang for personal gains.” she showed the doc.u.ments of the deal between Wu Sangui and Tamis aka Alpha.
The name ‘Tamis’ whispered around.
A reporter raise his hand.
Suyin, “You want to know who Tamis is? Don’t you?” all the people in the room nodded. “Google him. His history with Cheyna, and President Huang is written on Wikipedia. I will not narrate all that.” She let them have ten minutes to read.
“Hope you all understood what happened?” She continued. This time her voice came soft. No need to be aggressive anymore, she had done the hard part already. “The Alpha in the voice recording is none other than Tamis.He did everything to avenge himself and get back in power.” Once more, she lied. The secret of Master Gong Tuan being the actual mastermind would never make it out. She has her own plans.
“Minister Wu Sean and VP Wu Sangui became Tami’s ally to overthrow President Wang. It was Wu Sean who released all the fake evidence under my name. Their action not only put many lives at stake but risked our country as well…. cough…. excuse me,”
“I express my gratitude towards the Cheyna military lead by Officer Feng Jin who fought against Tamis’s army. Together we killed Tamis and end the ongoing proliferation of weapons, organ trafficking, sectarian violence, and lawlessness, with spillovers affecting neighboring countries. Thank you. Now you may ask questions.”
Suyin answered their questions patiently.
Wu Sean’s handcuffs rattled, getting everyone’s attention. “What about the part where Wang Shi paid a hundred million dollars to get your son’s heart to save his own? Are you denying that? Are you siding with your baby’s killer just because he’s warming your bed?”
Heads turned back to Suyin.
Sean, “I may have done wrong, but the evidence against Wang Shi was true. Though I know none will believe at me now.” he scoffed, “But as a mother, can you swear in the name of your dead son and say Wang Shi is innocent and didn’t kill your son?”
There was no way for Suyin to stop feeling emotional. She was asked to swear on her dead son. Neither can she lie, nor can she say the truth as it will only make things difficult for Honey. They will label him as a boy with a stolen heart. He will be called upon for living a stolen life. A life that his father bought him at the price of a hundred million dollars.
“What’s taking you so long. Suyin? I wonder where is your fierce attitude now? Where is your sarcasm? C’mon, answer us.”
Tears blurred her vision, closing her throat.
“MOM!”
Her eyes trailed to his right; Wang Shi was in the wheelchair. His eyes spreading the same warmth, telling her not to worry. He and his little me were there to stand with their very own weirdo ducky.
Jianyu pushed the wheelchair. In no time, Honey and Wang Shi filled the seats beside her. Scratch that. Only Wang Shi had filled the empty seat. Honey had dragged his chair to Suyin’s and started nudging against her. Kissing her twice on cheek, and repeating the word, ‘Mom’.
On the national television.
Live.
Wang Shi rolled his eyes. ‘Open PDA. This brat!’
