However, she believed in her brother's subordinates, and they could certainly come in again since they could do so previously.
On the night when the two were having dinner in the dining room, John the Butler brought them an invitation.
"Young Master, Mr. Nangong asked someone to send an invitation this morning, saying that the Nangong family is going to host
a dinner party in the next two days and would like to invite you and Young Lady to attend."
Kerry frowned and said, "Mr. Nangong?"
John the Butler said with a smile, "Yes, it is said that they're going to give Mr. Nangong a blind date."
"Hmph, it's time for him to get married." Kerry snorted, took a look at the invitation, and then dropped it aside and turned to look
at Venus, "Do you want to go?"
"No." Venus refused in a cold manner, and she didn't want to see Hao Nangong at all.
Nothing good happened every time when she saw him. Besides, if she went to the party, she had to meet Shuhua Chen. She
didn’t like this powerful middle-aged woman.
Kerry smiled gently, "Fine, it's not suitable for you to go to that kind of crowded place since you’re pregnant."
He was satisfied with Venus's attitude, and to be honest, he didn't want Hao to see his wife again so that there would be fewer
troubles.
As for this dinner, he could go by himself, which was also showing respect to Hao’s father.
......
The Nangong family was not far away from the Ye family, a twenty-minute drive at most.
They served an extremely sumptuous dinner. Kerry saw Mr. Nangong as soon as he entered the house.
“Kerry, why did you come alone? Where's your wife?" Mr. Nangong approached him.
"It’s inconvenient for her to move around and the doctor advised her to rest, so I'm sorry ......"
"It’s important to take care of the child, I can understand it." Mr. Nangong shook his hand and led him inside.
Kerry, who came alone, soon attracted the attention of many ladies, and some of them were wondering in secret if there existed
any conflict between him and his wife.
Hao, dressed in a smart suit, was chatting happily with someone, and a look of a smile flashed across his eyes when he saw
Kerry alone in the afterglow.
"Hao, Kerry is here."
Getting the sign from his father’s eye contact, Hao walked over slowly while Kerry looked indifferently at him.
Mr. Nangong said in a sincere and kind tone, "I know that you two have had many unpleasant encounters in the past, but no
matter what happened, you are brothers who grew up together, so why don’t you have a talk and sort it out? Kerry, you're a year
older than him, I hope that you can forgive him even it’s for the sake of me." Then he turned his head to stare at Hao and said,
"Hao, go and apologize to Kerry."
Hao had obviously been taught by his father in advance and obediently reached out his right hand, "It was all my fault, I'm so
sorry. I hope that you can forgive me."
His words sounded quite weak, but the expression in his eyes was tough.
Kerry saw through his untamed nature. How could it be possible to let Hao make an apology? It was just a show for Mr.
Nangong!
"Let's the past go. Everybody has been a brag, right?" Kerry held his hand. Since Mr. Nangong was happy to see it, why didn’t
they act for him?
Hao put on a false smile and said, "You’re right, I won't do that anymore."
Kerry, we may never have to see each other again.
Mr. Nangong saw that there was something wrong with the two and interrupted, "Alright, you will still be friends, talk more with
each other, ok?"
"Yes, dad." Hao said obediently. He always acted like a good boy in front of his father.
"You can continue your talk, I'll go take care of other guests."
As soon as Mr. Nangong left, the smiles disappeared instantly from their faces, Kerry didn't want to stay with him for a minute
longer and was ready to turn around to leave, but Hao stopped him, "Kerry, I remember that we also invite Venus, why didn't she
come?"
Kerry’s eyebrows were slightly raised, he was extremely annoyed every time he heard Hao called her name in that intimate way
because he thought that he was the only one in the world who had that qualification to call her like that.
" Hao, firstly, you should address her as Mrs. Ye from now on, and secondly, such places are not suitable for her since she’s
pregnant."
Hao made a casual response with a quite scornful attitude, then he seemed to see some acquaintance in the distance, greeted
and walked over.
Feeling stuffed by eating a bit too much at dinner, Venus walked in the garden to help digestion, and Xiao Yu and Henry followed
her inch by inch since Kerry had ordered that everything must be under control when he was not there.
She felt better after taking a walk and returned back to the bedroom.
She had a strong intuition that if the man in black was coming to attack her, then tonight would be the best chance.
She was a little anxious. She had never escaped from Kerry, if she couldn't succeed this time, then she would completely lose
confidence.
When it came to nine-thirty, the man in black, as expected, appeared on the balcony again. Venus was surprised and wondered
how on earth he broke the siege set by Henry.
As she turned back, Xiaoyu’s mouth was covered by the man in black and she passed out before she shouted out.
"Stop! What are you doing?" Venus was surprised at his actions as he undressed the maid.
The man said with a poker-face, "Go and get the maid's clothes on, the villa is now being patrolled outside."
Venus let out a sigh of relief. She thought that the man was going to......
The maid was stripped of the clothes except for the underwear. Mavis felt a little sorry for her and covered her with the blanket
on the couch.
"Come on, hurry up and change your clothes." The man tossed Xiaoyu's clothes to her. Venus took the clothes without delay and
ran into the dressing room.
Fortunately, Xiaoyu was much fatter than her, so the clothes fitted her, then she tied her hair up as Xiaoyu did.
"What should we do now?" Mavis asked nervously.
"Later there will be a blackout here, and you'll have to run to the place with a parked Hummer behind the villa without being
caught by anyone."
"And then?"
The man in black showed a cruel smile, "And then? Drive the car and rush out of here."
"What? It's too risky!" Venus didn't expect that it would be such a simple and rude plan because she thought that they might take
Henry’s well-trained men into consideration.
"Don’t worry, we still have other plans." The man looked down at her, "Are you ready?"
Mavis nodded firmly. She decided to trust them.
The man took out his cell phone and the call was received soon, there were some noises came from the other side, "Everything
is ready."
"Good."
A minute later, the cable leading to the villa was cut, and the villa, which was always brightly lit, suddenly sunk in the darkness.
"Go." The man said.
Venus was puzzled and asked him, "Aren't you coming with me?"
"I have something else to deal with." Then the man ran to the balcony and jumped out.
Venus took a deep breath and open the door, she heard the voice of John the Butler, "Is the power cut out? Mrs. Qin, where are
the candles?"
She had the route map of the villa in her mind, so even nothing could be perceived in this pitch-black, Venus could get down to
the first floor smoothly with her usual memory.
As she was about to go out, John the Butler hurriedly came over to her with the faint light of his cell phone, she put down her
head, and John looked at her and said, "Don't just stand here, quickly go light the candles."
Venus’s heart was about to jump out of his throat, and she answered with a higher voice, "Yes."
Perhaps the mess prevented him from making a correct judgment, John didn’t notice anything strange and walked upstairs
quickly, "Our Young Lady must be all right."
It’s time to move! Venus drew up her skirt and ran towards the back of the villa. Soon a sharp whistle sounded, she didn't know
what it meant and just ran as fast as she could.
There were several bodyguards rushing past her towards the southeast corner, and no one noticed her.
The Hummer was parked behind the villa, exactly the one owned by Kerry.
As soon as she ran up to it, the door opened, and she got in without hesitation.
The car started quickly, and then, gunshots rang outside of the car
Venus clutched her skirt tightly and silently prayed that nothing would happen.
John knocked on the door twice but received no response. He felt something wrong, and called out "Young Lady!", but there was
still no response, so he pushed the door......
