The Manipulated Villainess

Chapter 198 - Please Help Me



Garcia Han wasn't in a good condition. With both Aston and Carson Jun still lying in the ICU and Nicole who was still missing, she didn't even know what to do.

While she was helplessly sitting on the floor, next to the ICU where Carson Jun was lying, she felt the temptation to rush out and look for Nicole. Anything could happen to her as long as she was in that monster's hands.

Soon, Alex Jo came to her and he was followed by two detectives. When the Minister didn't make a movement at all, Alex Jo took her coat which was placed on the bench opposite them. Then he covered her with it.

"The police are here," he informed her.

Garcia Han suddenly opened her eyes which were already shut for a while. Then she stood up with Alex Jo helping her.

"Is there any improvement on the case?" she asked the two police officers. Her desperation and anxiety were more than evident in her voice.

"We track the number which the Prime Minister used to call Aston Kang. However, it was discarded in the abandoned building where the actor was found unconscious," one of the two detectives said.

"Through the CCTV record of Yang Group building, we figure out that the one who kidnapped the Chairwoman is Daniel Gu. He already worked for the Prime Minister for more than a decade," the other one said. "The culprit didn't even bother to hide his face, ma'am. It seems like they are prepared for the worst.

"It seems like the Chairwoman isn't the target of the Prime Minister. He already went after Mr. Kang and it seems like he is still not satisfied."

"I bet he wants me too," Garcia Han muttered.

"That's highly possible, ma'am," one detective said. "The Prime Minister might attempt to lure you out using Chairwoman Yang as bait. So, we can only wait for now. All our leads brought us nowhere."

"My stepdaughter can die in his hands any minute," the Minister of Justice uttered. "How can I just wait?! Considering what happened to Chairman Jun and Aston Kang, it's clear that he is willing to do anything now. Nothing can refrain him anymore!"

"We understand how you think," the other detective said. "We will try our best and we won't miss any chance or clue. Please have faith in us."

"We will keep an eye on everyone whom the Prime Minister might target. So, as long as he makes another move, we will be able to catch him," one officer reassured the Minister. "We believe that he will need the Chairwoman as bait. So, he will need to keep her alive. There is still hope."

It was almost midnight when Leon Jung stood at someone's door, repeatedly pressing the doorbell and knocking at the door. It wasn't that the one inside the apartment took long, it's just that the potter was in a rush.

When the door was finally opened, Mathias's displeased face was what welcomed Leon Jung. "Don't you have manners at all? Do you know what time it is now?" Mathias Jung uttered.

It's late but that doesn't mean that Mathias was sleeping. Ever since he heard the news about what his uncle did in the evening, he couldn't concentrate on anything else, let alone sleeping!

"Help me," Leon pleaded, making Mathias raised a brow. "You know my father well than me. You will surely know where he hides right now. So, please... help me find him."

"I don't know where he is," Mathias brushed him off. "If I know it, I will already go there myself."

Mathias was worried about two things - that something might happen to his uncle and... that the victims of his uncle might increase!

"Please... I beg you, Mathias. Can you at least name some places? I don't care even if it's just your assumption. I will give it a try even if there is just a 1 per cent chance. I have to stop my father," Leon Jung pleaded once again. He was even more determined than before!

"Do you ask me to help you so that you can catch him?" Mathias inquired. "I have no idea and even if I have some, I won't say it to you. My uncle already told me not to get involved in his business. I can't go against him."

"Isn't it more important for us to make a move so that there won't be more victims?" Leon asked. "You should also know how tormenting it is for me to face his victims and their families. Sometimes, I still find it hard to breathe whenever I realized that my father was the one who killed the fathers of both my ex-fiancee and my wife."

The potter's words made Mathias slightly raised a brow. What was he saying?

Before he could think further, Leon took him aback by dropping to his knees. "Please help me. Even if you don't know where he is, I know that you will have a way to find it out.

"If you're worried about my father, I will promise you that I will go and meet him alone. I won't bring anyone with me and I won't inform the police. I only want him to let go of Nicole and ensure that there will be no more victims."

"Leon Jung -"

"I will do anything to stop him this time. If it's necessary, I will even sacrifice myself to let that happen. So, please... help me out just this once."

Mathias finds himself in a dilemma. As a result of his traumatic childhood, he always finds it hard to harden his heart whenever he met someone like him -someone who was torn apart by the crimes which he never committed himself.

Not to mention that his uncle actually cared about this man whom he raised as his own son! The way Leon Jung talked, he also noticed the mixture of concern and hatred he had for his uncle!

"I will try to find a way," Mathias finally muttered, making Leon quickly looked up at him. "However, don't you dare break your promise. If any other party gets involved in this, I will kill you."

"Don't worry. I won't go back on my word," Leon quickly said.

When he looked at Mathias, he realized that he was wrong about one thing. He was convinced that if anyone could stop his father, that would be him. However, he just came to a realization that Mathias Jung could also be the one who can stop his father.

After all, the two shared a deep bond that might even be stronger than he could ever imagine.....
