Chapter 2876
Mateo gave a small smile as he sized up Aurora.
“You really are a great talent, Aurora,” he said, showing his admiration.
“You shouldn’t just be a simple actress. You should become Young Master Leo’s military advisor instead!”
“I didn’t even think about that...”
“But you did!”
“That’s an excellent plan! Once news breaks out about Queenie forcing a famous celebrity to jump into the sea, the papers will
write themselves!”
Aurora laughed.
“How far should we go, Mr. Mateo? Where would be a good spot to jump?”
“I think the Victoria Harbor’s pretty good.”
“There are a lot of tourists there. I’ll definitely cause a huge buzz if I jump there!”
“When that happens, you can get one of your men to pretend to be a tourist and pull me out of the water before I start acting
again. This is perfect!”
Mateo burst out laughing and snapped his fingers.
He looked straight into Aurora’s eyes and said, “Your plan’s pretty good, Aurora, but I think it can be better.”
“We won’t be getting you any help.”
“When you jump, your life will be all up to chance!”
Aurora trembled, and her eyes grew a little dull. Dizziness struck her at that very moment.
“I-If that’s the case, won’t I be dead for sure?” she asked instinctively.
“It’ll be better if you do! That way, the flames will grow bigger!” Mateo said, smiling warmly.
“After all, a monarch’s rise requires sacrifices of their subjects.”
“Won’t giving up your life to Young Master Leo be your greatest honor?”
“After all, a woman should lay her life down for her loved one. Am I wrong?”
Aurora’s dizziness grew, and she seemed to have grown somewhat drowsy.
“What should I do to make it look good...?” she asked.
Mateo’s voice sounded quieter than before, as if he was hypnotizing Aurora.
“When I’m gone, you’ll record a video saying that you’ve lost
all hope in humanity because of Queenie’s pressure.”
“You’ll then save the video in your phone.”
“You’ll wear your best wedding dress and bring your phone to the Victoria Harbor, where you’ll catch the attention of many
people before jumping from the Vesper Light Tower.”
“You’ll definitely make a huge wave in the history of entertainment!”
“You’ll become Young Master Leo’s biggest springboard toward his success!”
“Right!”
Aurora nodded, a grim look on her face.
“I’ll do it. I’ll let the world know!”
“I’ll burn Queenie down along with the Yorks of Hong Kong!”
Mateo was satisfied by his hypnotism.
He wiped all traces of him inside the presidential suite before he left, as if he had never been in there.
After exiting the room, he dialed a number from Hong Kong.
A woman picked up the call soon after.
“Talk.”
Mateo didn’t seem to care even after hearing the distant tone from the other side of the phone.
“Aurora’s death is set,” he said, grinning.
“If nothing goes wrong, your family will be showing up on headlines tonight.”
“You don’t need me to teach you what to do next, right?”
There was a long silence before the woman replied calmly,” For the Young Lord.”
“For the Young Lord,” Mateo repeated, still smiling.
He walked away after the phone call, but he didn’t realize that Harvey was calmly watching him from behind not far away.
