Chapter 484: Chapter 485 Who Does She Belong To?
Will furrowed his brow as Jessica pulled her bodyguard over to shield herself, retreating to the door. With a shove, she pushed the bodyguard toward Will and then leapt out of the apartment.
"Chase her!"
Steadying his subordinate, Will strode out in pursuit, rushing out just in time to see her smirking as she jumped into the elevator.
By the time he reached the ground floor, Jessica had already jumped into a car, giving Will, who burst from the building entrance, a distant middle finger.
Will raised his gun to aim, but the car had taken off like a wild horse breaking free. Gritting his teeth, he lowered the gun and immediately pulled out his cell phone to give orders.
"License plate XXX907, black Hummer, keep tabs on it!"
After putting away his phone, Will looked at the two subordinates who had rushed out after him.
"Idiots!"
The two subordinates hung their heads in shame.
Cursing under his breath, Will turned around and stormed back into the apartment, returning to the thirteenth floor. He glanced at the young man who lay dead and began to sift through the papers on the desk.
"Take everything away!"
"Yes, Mr. Will."
The two bodyguards scrambled to comply.

As dawn was breaking, Will returned to the hospital.
In the ward, the little guy was still sleeping soundly, having just had his temperature checked by the nurse. Everything was normal.
On the protective bed beside him, Gan Yuan, dressed and leaning on a pillow, was also asleep under a blanket that Huangfu Jue had found for her.
Hearing the door open, Huangfu Jue turned his face toward the sound and, seeing Will at the door, gestured silently. He then got up quietly from the chair and stepped outside the ward, carefully closing the door.
"How did it go?"
"By the time we got there, that guy was already dead, and a blonde girl was about to escape..." Will paused slightly, "I’m sorry, sir, I... I didn’t catch her."
Will hung his head in shame. It was a major failure for three men to not catch a woman, all the more so because it involved an assassination attempt on Gan Tang. Naturally, he felt a great deal of guilt.
After all this time, Gan Tang had become more to him than just Huangfu Jue’s son; the child was also very important to Will himself.
Huangfu Jue clenched his fists, repressing his anger.
"Any other leads?"
"The publisher’s computer and all other items have been brought back for examination," Will, lifting his face once more, said, "Also, I noticed something on that woman: a tattoo, a red flower."
Will pulled a piece of paper from his pocket, which bore a drawing of the tattoo he had seen on Jessica from memory.
"It looked like this. I feel like I’ve seen it somewhere before."
"That’s the Red Spider Lily," Gan Yuan’s voice came from behind the parted ward doors as she walked over. She reached out and took the paper from Will’s hand, "I know whose woman she is!"
Within the Red Flame, only those of high rank were entitled to such a tattoo.
Hers had the most, nine petals. For that girl to have seven, it was enough to indicate her high standing beside Moses.
Huangfu Jue furrowed his brow, "Moses?"
Gan Yuan, looking at the Red Spider Lily in her hand, asked, "Will, are you sure, she killed him?"
"This..." Will cleared his throat, "By the time we arrived, the man was already dead and she was the only one at the scene. However, the detailed autopsy report won’t be out until an hour from now."
