The CEO's Woman Chapter 376 Are you ready?

Chapter 376 Are you ready?

"Are you sure about this?" Fu Jin asked Jiang Yue after she showed him the results of her online research.

"Yes. Jin… look at this. This must be the real reason my mother has run away. She has not run away because of my father's ident.i.ty. She has run away because she had done something terrible." She said while looking at the news articles opened on her laptop screen. "This explosion has happened nine months before my birthday! Nine months! She must have been pregnant when she left."

Fu Jin just continued looking at Jiang Yue's laptop. She was right, the explosion, which had killed a total of twenty children and fourteen other innocent people, had happened exactly nine months before Jiang Yue's date of birth.

"There must be something else… my mother is not this cold-hearted. She won't kill children. I know she won't do that." She said as she opened the letter that she had found inside the vault. "Look at this. The name of the sender was intentionally blurred. As if it was some highly confidential letter from a government or something like that."

Jiang Yue held the letter, carefully looking at the blurred message. There was no seal or anything that could help her distinguish the source of the message. Then, she held it up towards the incandescent bulb on chandelier of their room.

"What are you doing?" Fu Jin asked.

"Just checking for hidden messages or maybe something else." She sighed before putting the piece of paper back onto the table. "Jin, if I am right, then… my mother should be a member of the organization that has killed those children."

"We can't really determine it from these papers alone." Fu Jin said. After a.n.a.lyzing those articles and photos he could only come up with one conclusion.

"This can't be considered as solid evidence. What if someone has deliberately planted these images to make your mother look bad? To make you investigate something that is totally unrelated to your mother?"

"You have a point." She nodded. Jiang Yue was fully aware that she did immediately jump into conclusions. She didn't even think of it properly before she concluded that her mother was involved in that accident. However, who could blame Jiang Yue? It was, after all, concerning her mother-someone very important to her

"Jin... what if she really was involved in this?" She asked, her face serious. "What if she really killed these people in cold blood?"

Seeing Fu Jin just stare at her, Jiang Yue added, "What do you think?"

"We don't know that yet. All these 'what if's' will only make us more and more confused. It will hinder us from carefully a.n.a.lyzing the overall situation. I think we should not jump into conclusions. We need more clear and solid evidence." He answered. "I also think that it is the worst time to think about this right now. Tomorrow is the Cabinet meeting. We need to prepare properly." He stated.

Jiang Yue closed her eyes before she slowly ma.s.saged her temples. Her research on her mother's past was already making progress. However, she really needed to concentrate on tomorrow's affairs.

"You are right."

...…...

On the next day, Jiang Yue and Fu Jin woke up early. The Cabinet meeting was going to start exactly at nine in the morning. However, Jiang Yue needed to arrive earlier than the Ministers so she could prepare for her presentation.

"Is everything prepared?" She asked Fu Jin who had just finished his call with the Chief of the security.

"I will be waiting in a safe house just two blocks away from the palace. Bai'Li and Alex will be with me. They will be in charge of tracing any suspicious activities on the palace's servers. If they detect anything, they will immediately send a signal to your phone." Fu Jin explained. "It has been encrypted with the best protocols that we have, so our communication will be safe."

"Are you ready?" He asked.
