Dark Room Deception [MTL] (Completed)

Chapter 58

==

The moment Xia Can heard Fu Jiting's voice, he felt a tightness in his chest and felt a little regretful.

He regretted that he should have listened to his friend and stayed in the resort hotel. He also regretted not going to see Fu Jiting. Anyway... it was on his way anyway.

The kidnappers should have informed the person in advance that they were here. This phone call was nothing more than using Xia Can to force him. Therefore, before he could say too much, Fu Jiting just asked if he was okay.

Xia Can made a "hmm" sound and wanted to repeat what the strong man asked him to say, but the words did not form a complete sentence and it was difficult to speak coherently.

"It's okay, I'm glad you're okay." Fu Jiting's tone didn't sound very anxious. Then, another sentence came out calmly from the speaker of his mobile phone: "But didn't you tell them that you and I were preparing for a divorce?"

Xia Can was not stupid enough to not understand Fu Jiting's intention. He wanted to sever the relationship between them in order to better separate him from the danger of Fu Jiting. The less relationship they had, the safer he would be.

The tacit understanding between husband and wife was revealed at this time.

Just hearing the word divorce in such a tone from Fu Jiting's mouth, Xia Can felt a little uncomfortable, even though he was still thinking about ending this marriage all the time just a few hours ago.

He looked up at the burly man, shrugged and said, "I told you that, but they insisted on having you come before letting me go. Really."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sturdy man snatched the phone and said, "Have you confirmed everything? The later you come, the longer Mr. Xia will have to stay here. I think Mr. Xia doesn't like it here, so you'd better come earlier."

Fu Jiting did not promise that he would arrive soon. He calmly stated the objective facts: "Why I am anxious to confirm Xia Can's situation, Fu Kang probably knows the reason better than me. It is probably not his intention to provoke the Xia family. If you hurt Xia Can in the slightest, I am afraid he will not be able to keep my half of the society even if I hand it over."

The sturdy man paused and hung up the phone.

From Fu Jiting's words, Xia Can heard a slightly familiar name, Fu Kang. If he remembered correctly, he should be Fu Haoshan's eldest son who broke his leg.

To confirm his guess, Xia Can asked, "Didn't you say you wanted Fu Jiting's leg? Why did you bring up the club? Fu Kang has a big appetite."

At this point, the strong man did not hide it. After all, he could not hide anything even if he wanted to. He sneered and said, "Mr. Fu's club originally belonged to the boss. He is old and confused, and it is only natural for him to hand it over to a bastard who is not legitimate. It is only natural for him to take back what he should take, don't you think?"

Xia Can nodded in agreement and continued to ask, "Then was Fu Jiting also responsible for stabbing Fu Kang's leg?"

"Nonsense, didn't Fu Jiting tell you how he broke someone's leg with his car? He drove into the person and then reversed to run over him. If Mr. Fu hadn't arrived in time..."

The sturdy man felt that he had said too much, and his muscles moved, and he stopped describing. Looking at Xia Can's clean face, he eased and then threatened to persuade: "These are all rumors about the Fu family, and Mr. Xia and him are about to divorce, so it's better to know less, so as to avoid troubles that affect you."
