My Wife is an Aloof Beauty

Chapter 930 Predators And Preys (Part One)

"Aren't you afraid that I'll sell my shares to someone else? If so, FX International Group wouldn't belong to the Mu family alone," said Jessica, biting her lower lip. She hadn't expected Edward to be so indifferent. It was like her struggles were as insignificant as ripples on the water. There had to be something that would faze him.

"Afraid? Do you really think there's anyone that's really in your corner? There's no one who would challenge me, much less could." Edward wasn't impressed by her empty threat. The person had to have vast amounts of wealth if he intended to become a shareholder of FX International Group. He'd have to be richer than Edward, and while that wasn't impossible it was difficult at best.

"You really think you're the schmoo, don't you? You're not the best lover, nor are you the best businessman. There are other companies larger than FX International, to boot. You really think no one compares to you, that no one is good enough to bring you to your knees? Mr. Mu, you live in a world of predators and preys. In this city, you may be the predator, but outside the city, you are merely prey. And perhaps, in the richest tycoon's eyes, you're a monkey full of hot air. You might want to keep this in mind." What Jessica hated most was his arrogance, and her tone was laced with both pride and contempt.

"I can be as confident as I want -- and as arrogant. I've earned that right.But I have to ask: who the hell do you think you are? You're nothing to me." Edward flashed a mocking smile. The expression on his face turned cold as he spoke. He looked her up and down, his dangerous eyes locked on pale Jessica.

Jessica made a noise of pure animal rage. Then she composed herself. "You asshole! You'll regret this! You don't want to trade with me? Fine! The MY Mall is being acquired by Kompass Group! And there's nothing you can do about it!" Gritting her teeth, Jessica snorted. Did he really think that she had no choice but to cooperate with him? What a condescending jerk!

However, Edward burst into raucous laughter. His guffaws echoed hollowly through the office.He retorted,"You know what led to Lin Group's failure, don't you, Jessica? It was you. Yo

eing held to her face, the steel point tracing along her tender flesh. The memory hit her like a slap. No matter how much time had passed, she was cowed by his fury.

"If I were you, I'd know better than to show your face and piss off a man who's way out of your league. But yet you're here now, talking bullshit. What the hell, Jessica? I never thought you had the stones for it." Edward's words were not only threatening but also full of cold anger. If she hadn't mentioned Daisy, it would have been okay for her to trash talk him. But now, since she swore to hurt his one and only, he was all out of patience.

"So you're threatening me now. What? Going to try and cut me again, even though I've not even raised a fist at you? Oh, big man! Why should I go away? Come on, are you really rich enough to control what I do?" said Jessica in a trembling voice. Although she was still playing tough, the impulse to run away from the man was surging in her heart. Her lips were twitching and her body shook. This took everything she had to stand up to him.

"Maybe I can't control your mind. But I am rich enough to ignore the law. And trust me, whatever I do to you, the law will still be on my side. Consider yourself warned. Get out, and don't let the door hit you as you leave." It would be foolish to try and talk some sense into this woman. Edward had decided to be blunt. After all, she wouldn't understand, even if he talked till he were blue in the face.
