The CEO's Woman

Chapter 359 - Wrath



"Touch her and you will taste my wrath!" Gideon bellowed surprising everyone in the room, including the Queen. Gideon had never raised his voice on anyone. He might be intimidating and cold but he had never raised his voice on anyone. Especially not on the Queen.

Everyone stared at King flabbergasted. His voice was too loud for them to ignore.

"How dare you disturb a very important meeting that concerns the security of this country?" He asked, his voice overbearing as he looked at everyone who came inside the room. .

"My King." The Queen paled. "I... I was just alarmed when the Crown Prince told me that someone demanded to talk to you alone," she said while eyeing Jiang Yue.

"I am having an important meeting and you disrespected my orders and barged into the room, asking your soldiers to arrest the person that I am talking to. I am surprised that you still see me as your King." Gideon quipped before looking at the Prime Minister and Secretary Jia. "Everyone here, who disturbed my meeting with Miss Long, shall receive punishment for disobeying the King's orders."

"Including the Queen," he added, refusing to look at the Queen anymore.

"My King..."

"I command you to stay in your room and don't you dare see anyone until I asked you to. You are not allowed to leave your room and attend any meeting or talk to anyone until I say so." Gideon interrupted her words. His words were cold, like a final edict that couldn't be objected.

"My King, how can you do this to me just because of that woman? She disrespected my son and asked everyone to leave her alone with you. What if she is a criminal? She could have hurt you when you were alone!"

"And has she?" He sarcastically asked.

The Queen was dumbfounded as she stared at Gideon. Her eyes were full of disbelief as she swallowed all the words that she wanted to say. What else could she say? Gideon was not dead and he was safe. She could not insist that this Long Die was here to hurt him.

"HAS SHE HURT ME?" He hollered at her.

"No, My King…" she lowered her head. "She has not. I have made a mistake."

"It's enough that you know that…" he said before looking back to Long Die. "Miss Long, I would expect Miss Jiang to be here next week for the Cabinet meeting. Please have her prepare a presentation for everyone."

"Secretary Jia..." Gideon looked at Secretary Jia, his face devoid of any expression. "Please escort Miss Long out of the palace. No one is allowed to touch her. Not even the Crown Prince."

Jiang Yue gave the King a small bow before smirking at the Queen. She really could not stop herself from provoking the Queen and the Crown Prince. Especially, knowing that there was a possibility of the Queen being involved in the car accident that had happened with her mother.

Jiang Yue's disrespect towards the Queen was so obvious that everyone held their breaths, waiting for the Queen to explode in anger. After all, Queen Ah-Joong was well-known for her short temper and vicious ways. However, who would have thought that not only the Queen would lower her head, the King also would not say a thing, as if he was letting Jiang Yue disrespect the Queen on purpose.

They just watched as Jiang Yue strutted her way out of the room leaving the fuming Queen and the speechless crowd behind.

Meanwhile, Queen Ah-Joong was fuming. Her hands tightened into fists as she looked at Jiang Yue's back. She was almost a hundred percent sure that the woman just now was Jiang Yue. The woman's cunning eyes were just too outstanding. There was no way that she would miss it.

If that was the case, then there was a possibility that Gideon had already told her the truth. There was a big possibility that Jiang Yue already knew that she could be considered an heir to the throne.

The Queen could only grit her teeth as she thought about the possibility of Li Jun siding with Jiang Yue. After all, Jiang Yue was the daughter of that woman. Even though she fooled Li Jun into believing that the Crown Prince was his son, there was still a big possibility that he would choose Jiang Yue.

However, that would be a very difficult decision. After all, the King had two sons. There was no way for the Elders of the Li family to allow Jiang Yue to become the Queen. It was impossible. The Li Family would not do that. No… they didn't have the power to do that.

Queen Ah-Joong once again gritted her teeth as she watched the King leave her, without saying anything. She started reminiscing the nights that she had spent with Li Jun. She had been married to Li Jun for years before she saw his true appearance. And that was when she decided to sleep with him.

However, after sleeping with him once, the latter never looked at her again. So when her father, the patriarch of the Kim family, decided to have her impregnated by another man, she had no choice but to agree. After all, they need the King to think that the child was his.

She also did the same for her second child. However, she never even once lost the hope of having Li Jun's attention. And she would never get tired of hoping.
