One night stand with my president(chapter 598)

 



Chapter 598: You're Nothing But a Fool


He had long since investigated Rogelio Hunter and Jasmine Hunter's recent movements thoroughly.


Although they had been very careful, and Rogelio had even obtained new identities for both of them, if Russell Hunter wanted to investigate, Rogelio's little tricks were no match for him.


It was just that Russell Hunter's focus had recently been on Adeline Hensley, leaving him no time to deal with them.


But now, it was time to deal with Jasmine Hunter.


He hadn't forgotten what this woman had done, how she had used Adeline Hensley, how she had tried to frame him.


He knew Warren Chiang had accompanied

Jasmine Hunter to Yewhaina this time.


Earlier, he had first taken his men to Warren Chiang's room.


But it was empty.


He thought Warren Chiang might be with

Jasmine Hunter.


But he wasn't.


Jasmine Hunter said stiffly, "I don't know."


"Fine, it doesn't matter," Russell Hunter said, looking down and lightly twisting the ring on his pinky finger. "After all, I didn't come here today just to catch him."


These words pushed Jasmine Hunter to the brink of collapse.


She leaned on the back of the sofa, struggling to stay upright.


"Russell, I know I've done things that hurt you in the past, but... we're still family. I'm your aunt!"


Russell Hunter looked up at her, his tone sarcastic. "You still remember you're my aunt? You've been doing quite well as my stepmother all these years, haven't you?"


"Your father and I... we just wanted to find comfort and warmth from each other," Jasmine Hunter said. "Think about it, if your mother's spirit is watching from heaven, she would surely bless us! She loved me the most back then..."


"You have no right to mention my mother!"

Russell Hunter suddenly roared.


Jasmine Hunter flinched violently.


Burning rage flickered in Russell Hunter's eyes.


"Alright, I won't mention her. Don't be angry," Jasmine Hunter said, terrified. 


"Russell, please, for the sake of our family ties, let me go. I'll never dare to scheme against you again. I won't do anything. Just let me live out my remaining days abroad!"

Her face was full of pleading.


But Russell Hunter remained completely unmoved.


"Never dare again? Then tell me, why did you come to Yewhaina?"


Russell Hunter's cold gaze bore into her.


Jasmine Hunter didn't dare answer. Then she heard Russell Hunter ask, "Who is in Yewhaina that brought you here? Who did you want to target?"


Naturally, it was Adeline Hensley.


But Jasmine Hunter didn't dare say.


Even though she knew Russell Hunter was undoubtedly aware of her intentions.


But at this moment, she didn't dare utter Adeline Hensley's name in front of him.


After a long while, Jasmine Hunter spoke: "I regret it now. And look at me, like this, even Warren Chiang, the only one with me, is gone. What else can I do? Zhilin, must you really hunt me down to the very end?"


"Did you ask yourself that question when you were scheming and framing me before?"


The Russell Hunter of today would not show mercy to Jasmine Hunter just because of a few words.


Seeing Russell Hunter's frosty expression,

Jasmine Hunter's heart gradually turned cold.


At this point, she was truly at the end of her rope.


Rogelio Hunter couldn't fly here to save her.


She couldn't possibly devise any way to save herself in front of Russell Hunter.


Warren Chiang was still missing, and even if he returned now, he was no match for Russell Hunter and his bodyguards.


If Russell Hunter took her back, who knew what awaited her...


"Can you really not let me go?" Jasmine Hunter asked, her face ashen.


Russell Hunter didn't answer her question. He simply gestured for the bodyguards to move forward and restrain her.


"Hahaha..."


Jasmine Hunter suddenly burst into loud, hysterical laughter.


Her manic state made the bodyguards frown, and they looked back at Russell Hunter.


"Russell Hunter, you think you're so powerful and clever, don't you? When it comes down to it, you're nothing but a fool!" Jasmine Hunter shouted.


Such words held no power to harm

Russell Hunter.


But her next words sent shockwaves crashing through his heart.


"You think your mother died how? She was killed by your father! In fact, long before your mother died, your father and I were already involved! Your father killed her so he could be with me legitimately!" Jasmine Hunter's face was twisted, but her voice held a note of grim satisfaction. "If not for your father, she'd probably still be alive and well! But here you are, focused on dealing with me, while the man who truly killed your mother is out there living it up! Hahaha....”


Russell Hunter's pupils trembled violently.


His fingers were clenched tightly into fists.


He had wondered before if his mother's death was deliberate.


But he had dismissed the thought as absurd.

Back then, his mother was Mrs. Hunter, and she was extremely cautious.


Who would dare harm her? Who could harm

her?


Right. The person most capable of harming her without leaving a trace was none other than the husband she deeply loved and trusted.


But Russell Hunter had never allowed his thoughts to go in that direction.


Even after Rogelio Hunter married Jasmine

Hunter, even as their father-son relationship deteriorated, even when Rogelio refused to believe he hadn't harmed Jasmine Hunter's unborn child...


He had never once considered that Rogelio Hunter might have killed his mother.


"What, you don't believe me?" Jasmine Hunter, watching his expression, guessed his thoughts.


"You're so pitiful, Russell Hunter. You've been deceived by Rogelio Hunter for all these years, and you still choose to believe him. Go ahead and investigate. Even though it happened so long ago, if you're determined, you'll find the truth. Besides, I can even give you some leads." Of course, Jasmine Hunter wasn't being kind.


She wanted to drag Rogelio Hunter down with her.


Why should she suffer while Rogelio continued to enjoy himself?

She had said it before.


Even if she died, she would drag Rogelio Hunter down to hell with her.


Since Russell Hunter would never let her go now, what did it matter if he knew the truth about that incident?


And, most importantly, she wanted to wound Russell Hunter deeply.


She wanted to plant the deepest, most painful thorn in his heart!


His mother's death... was actually caused by his own father...


This truth would surely torment Russell Hunter immensely!


And it would torment him for the rest of his life!


Just the thought of it filled Jasmine Hunter with savage satisfaction.


A loud ringing filled Russell Hunter's ears.


His min& was flooded with images of his mother's gentle smile from years past, the happy picture of their family of three, and Rogelio Hunter's various promises to his mother...


His vision grew increasingly blurry, until he could no longer clearly see Jasmine Hunter's vicious, distorted face.


Finally, his tall frame collapsed heavily to the ground.


"Mr. Hunter!"


"Mr. Hunter, are you alright!"


Adeline Hensley had breakfast at home and then went to the hospital.


As soon as she arrived, she heard that Russell Hunter had fainted and been admitted.
