Chapter 280 280 Do we have a deal
"Who was this mysterious man who had captured Monica's affections? What secrets did he hold, and what were his intentions?" Fitch realized that he needed to test Selina, to fully understand the extent of her anger and the danger she posed to the Rusell's.
With a calm demeanor masking his inner turmoil, Fitch spoke, his voice laced with controlled anger. "Selina, I understand your pain, but vengeance will only lead to more suffering. You must tread carefully, for the man who has wronged both you and Monica must not be an ordinary man, and besides, the Rosell family is no pushover."
Selina narrowed her eyes a fire burning within them, she understood what he was trying to do but acted like she didn't understand. "I don't care about their power or influence," she hissed. "I will kill her, regardless of the consequences."
Fitch had been tirelessly searching for answers, piecing together fragments of information to solve the mystery that consumed him. His mind was fixated on one question: could the man who had slept with Monica be the same Master who secretly protected the Russell family?
Driven by curiosity, Fitch knew he had to find out the truth. The only person who might hold the key to unraveling this enigma for him was Selina, as she was extremely angry and he could explore her anger.
As Fitch pondered his next move, Selina's voice echoed through the room. "You know, it's quite ridiculous," she scoffed, her voice dripping with mockery. "In the eyes of the Ni Yang, Monica is nothing more than a fresh dessert. He'll consume her eagerly, but soon enough, he'll grow tired and discard her like yesterday's leftovers."
Fitch listened with a calm expression he quickly ascertained the answer to his endless question, the question that had been disturbing him for ages, Fitch quickly ascertained that the Ni Yang that Selina was talking about was the legendary and terrifying Grandmaster.
He didn't have any encounters or grievances with Master Ni Yang but with the Rusells whom he was protecting, he couldn't focus on what Selina was saying, he was lost in thought on what to do as he knew taking this Master out is like taking out half the force of the Russell family.
Fitch stood before Selina, he had gotten an idea of what to do, he thought of first building a wedge between Selina and Ni Yang, that way she could collide with him on hunting down the master protecting the Rusell before he planned against them. He knew he had to choose his words carefully, luring her into revealing the truth.
With a sober face, Fitch taunted, "So, Selina, how does it feel to know that Master was fucking Monica who doesn't add anything to his value, a little girl whom he sees as nothing more than a fleeting pleasure? Someone he will eventually cast aside? Don't you think that's an insult to your value? Do you think if it was Master that tricked her to bed after all Monica was never a wayward"
Selina's eyes flashed with fury, her anger palpable. "Don't you dare speak ill of the Ni Yang!" she spat, her voice filled with defiance. "Monica may be weak, but Ni Yang is an honorable man! He holds power beyond your comprehension and has a lot of harem on his list, he wouldn't even bat her an eye if she doesn't seduce him, one should be grateful for even having his attention!" In the midst of her rant, Selina cleverly concocted a plan to trap Fitch, she knew that her words were being carefully observed by Fitch. "You don't have to worry about the master, I know how to deal with him. We just need to deal with the Russel family."
"Seemed severing her tie with this master is almost impossible" Fitch thought and had to stop thinking of using that against the Rusell's, as it seemed impossible to make Selina act against the master.
Fitch, known for his manipulative ways, had always been seeking an opportunity to strike at the heart of the Russell family. He sees Selina's rage as the perfect opening for his plans to unfold.
Fitch approached Selina cautiously, knowing her wrath could easily be redirected towards him and gauging if there were loopholes he could explore to catch their acts. Tentatively, he asked "Selina what do you intend to do with Madeline, everyone knows she is your long-time friend and you two have always been close. It is still hard to believe that you and Madeline will have disputes"
Selina's eyes narrowed, the corners of her mouth curling into a mocking expression. She deliberately displayed her disgust with a theatrical flair and declared, "I have severed all ties with Madeline. She is dead to me. Our friendship is nothing but a distant memory now." The very thought of Madeline seemed to ignite a fire within Selina, fueling her anger even more.
Fitch, sensing an opportunity, couldn't help but prod Selina further. He inquired, "So, what will you do to Madeline? How will you make her pay for her betrayal?"
Selina's eyes sparkled with a mischievous delight as she coyly replied, "Oh, Fitch, my plans for Madeline are far more wicked. I won't be lifting a finger to harm her. Instead, I shall leave her fate in your capable hands, as long as you don't kill her you can do whatever you want to her and when you are done you can send her to me for my plans for her to unfold."
The shock on Fitch's face was undeniable as he struggled to comprehend the true depth of Selina's cunning nature. He had expected a tale of revenge, but instead, he found himself entangled in a wicked game of manipulation, "Why did she want her to stay alive if she wanted her dead," he couldn't help but ask himself as this was an unexpected reply from her. Fitch couldn't shake the feeling that there was more to the story. The pieces didn't quite fit, and the truth remained elusive.
Selina had confided in Fitch about the deep betrayal she had endured at the hands of Monica, a member of the influential Rusell family. Her heart seethed with a desire for vengeance, to expose the true nature of the entire Rusell clan. And, though they hadn't explicitly discussed their intentions, Fitch knew Selina had sought him out for a reason.
Underneath his calm exterior, it is known to the public that the Howard family and Rusell harbored an intense animosity towards each other and Fitch's hatred for Madeline runs deeper. He knew all too well the darkness that lurked within their ranks and understood the dire consequences of crossing their path. Selina's desire to see Monica suffer resonated with him, as he yearned to exact his own brand of justice upon Madeline. He knew working with Selina was a great opportunity to seek his revenge.
Their shared animosity and parallel goals forged an unspoken alliance, "Do we have a deal" Selina asked stretching out her hands, Fitch stared at the outstretched hand, he knew what accepting the handshake could simply mean, bound by a mutual understanding of the power that lay hidden within the Rusell family he had to make a right decision not to fall into trap.
