Chapter 895 Trap

Unedited

............

To his surprise, Lily didn't hesitate to use her other hand to try and stab him. Unfortunately for Lily, the man was experienced enough to be able to see through an attack like this. Victor let her go before he took a step back completely avoiding the knife in Lily's hands. "You crafty little prick."

On the floor, another hissed escaped Lily's lips, she raised her ashen face and glared at the man."Fool!" Lily forced herself to stand up, however, her legs seemed to lose all their strength. Kicking someone bigger than her used a lot of her energy in the process. Because of this, all muscles in her leg ache. Her body ached. 

"Where is it!?" Victor asked. Since Lily didn't give them the file, she still has value to them. The sound of someone's footsteps interrupted the two. Mr. Kuznetsov strode inside the room, his face morphed into an ugly scowl.

"Why did you hurt her?" Seeing Lily's pale face and swollen hand, Mr. Kuznetsov's face turned uglier. "Why did you touch her?"

"She punched me." The other replied. "I didn't touch her."

"Hmph! Now that she's hurt, we can't just let her go. Take her with us." Mr. Kuznetsov said in a grim tone. "Take…" Mr. Kuznetsov wasn't able to finish his words when he heard Lily's chuckle.

"You fool." Lily's words made Mr. Kuznetsov snort.

"Victor fooled you! Aren't you the fool one?"

"Is that so?" She raised an eyebrow. Her pale face showed no weakness— something that came truly unexpected. However, the two men immediately understood that Lily was only pretending to act strongly now. How could she just bow down to them? Lily's arrogance knows no bounds, she would rather die than bow down to a traitor.

Having these thoughts in mind, Mr. Kuznetsov let out a burst of boisterous laughter. "You are truly entertaining." He remembered the box earlier that was full of ash. Fucking ashes. "You wanted to know who is who?" He asked. Just like Victor, he realized that Lily actually fooled them. She wanted to know who the traitor was. "And yet, you didn't know that a traitor had always stood by your side since you started your reign in the business world?" His provoking words were followed by his mocking laughter. "That Yang Mi is working for the Order." Then his face changed. He narrowed his eyes at Lily's unyielding face. "You already know this?"

Lily snorted in response. Of course Lily knew that Yang Mi was a spy. Lilian personally recruited Yang Mi. However, Lily knew if this was true. She had long considered the possibility that Yang Mi was someone assigned by the organization themselves. They wanted someone close to Lily to keep an eye on her, and Yang Mi is just the perfect person for that matter. 

"Hah! It seems you are really smart." He said. "When did you figure out that Victor was the traitor?" From the ashes on that box, it was pretty obvious that Lily already knew Victor was someone that cannot be trusted. However, Mr. Kuznetsov knew that Victor was nothing but a good actor so far. The man even fooled Lilian!

Of course, Mr. Kuznetsov didn't know that the reason why Victor easily fooled Lilian is that she had long trusted him. He was someone she saved after all. In a world where everyone around Lilian always died, she had long considered everyone around her as her close confidant. Like a younger brother and sister. 

"Why would I tell you?" Lily countered. The pain in her hand had worsened, she knew that once this would continue, her consciousness would leave her. Still, she showed no sign of pain or defeat. She knew he would come soon. All she needed was to buy some time for him. Lily snorted and turned her head away. She inwardly gritted her teeth. 

In reality, Lily didn't know that Victor was a traitor. However, she did this experiment or operation as Zhou Jingren would call it, to reveal the people who wanted the file for their own personal usage. Lily figured that the reason Lilian was killed was not that she refused to give the file to the order but because she refused to give it to one person. Lilian must have found that one of them wanted to use this for his own country.

However, Lily didn't know who the real enemies were. For her to make sure about this matter, she chose to set up a trap. She dangled the location of the file in front of them, letting them think that she had it. She knew that someone from the organization would not be able to resist the temptation. After all, everyone already knew that she had lost her husband. The order must have thought that to avenge her husband, Lily would destroy the file just to slight them.

Lily knew that the one behind the murder of her grandmother is also anxious, causing them to act first once Lily has the files. What if Lily destroyed the file? Surely, their actions in the past as long as their efforts will be for nothing! Lily took advantage of this anxiety and set up the trap, successfully revealing that Victor betrayed her grandmother and Mr. Kuznetsov betrayed the order. The thought of this only made Lily chuckle.

She was not done. She was far from done.

"Bring her with us." Mr. Kuznetsov narrowed his eyes at Lily as he instructed Victor. "We will torture her if necessary. We needed to have that file as soon as possible!"

Victor didn't hesitate. He walked towards Lily and pulled her hair. However, this action didn't affect Lily in the slightest. These people … are already too deep into her trap there is no way that these two will survive once she escaped their clutches. Lily looked at Mr. Kuznetsov then turned her eyes towards Victor.

"Make her unconscious." Lily heard Mr. Kuznetsov uttered before she heard a loud smack behind her. Then she lost her consciousness while thinking of her husband's face.
