Apocalypse - Evil Shelter System-Chapter 196: The Conflicted Beautiful CEO, Guang Beijia (1)

"I won't accompany him! Even if it means death, I won't do such a despicable thing!!" Guang Beijia, ashamed and furious, blushed and trembled all over. "I vowed that in this life, I will absolutely not let any other man touch me!"

Her late husband was an outstanding man, and she treated him extremely well. During the accident years ago, if it weren't for her husband using his body to protect her, she might have been the one who died. And the cause of the accident was her own fault!

Although her husband had been dead for many years, and they didn't leave behind any children, she had been faithfully preserving herself for her late husband. She couldn't forget the man who sacrificed his life to save her.

Guang Beijia is a very conservative woman with strong moral principles. Even though Ge wholeheartedly and selflessly devoted himself to her, it couldn't completely win her heart, let alone make her abandon her conservative views.

Since her husband passed away, she has been approached by some outstanding suitors. However, her strong willpower always kept her on guard, firmly adhering to her bottom line. Even in her energetic age, full of vitality like a jackal or a tiger, she never considered having another man in her life.

Even if she occasionally had such thoughts, she would use intense work or find ways to numb herself. She never imagined that in this lifetime, she would be coerced into doing such a thing!

No! It's not acceptable!

Absolutely not!!

Even if it means death, she cannot give up her principles and steadfastness. She absolutely cannot do anything that would betray her late husband!

"Guang Beijia!! Everyone knows you're a virtuous and principled woman! For so many years, we've all respected you! But this time, it's not about your personal feelings! This time, it's for everyone, for our shelter! Can you bear to watch the council and shelter you established with your own hands be destroyed?

Can you bear to watch so many people become slaves to that villain, Alex? If you don't sacrifice yourself today, in the future, more women will be coerced by Alex!"

A senator abruptly stood up, earnestly advising Guang Beijia.

"Guang Beijia! What you're doing is a sacrifice for yourself to save everyone! You are the number one in our entire shelter, and you not only have the responsibility but also the duty!"

"Yes! Guang Beijia, given the current situation, for the shelter, for everyone, you must come forward no matter what!"

"Humph! Guang Beijia, if it weren't for you insisting on keeping Alex back then, if it weren't for you giving him power, our shelter wouldn't be in this state! Consider this as redemption; you must step forward and make a sacrifice! Besides, in this post-apocalyptic world, does this kind of thing still matter?!"

"Yes, since Alex has set his eyes on you, even if you don't agree now, when he completely controls the entire shelter, won't he do whatever he wants with you?! By then, not only will you be unable to protect yourself, but everyone will be doomed!"

"Guang Beijia, you were originally our number one speaker. As your power increases, the responsibilities you have to bear naturally increase. This time, if you make such a great sacrifice, when we rebuild the council, you will still be our number one. We will all respect you and follow your arrangements and commands!"

The senators resorted to both soft and hard tactics, employing various means to coerce Guang Beijia into agreeing to Alex's demands.

Guang Beijia's face underwent successive changes, her whole body involuntarily trembling, and the fist she clenched so tightly even drew blood, with her nails digging into her palm from the exertion. Her inner turmoil was intense, coupled with a profound sense of helplessness.

Finally, her complexion turned deathly pale, and she lifted her head to glance at Gu. At this moment, Gu remained silent, sitting calmly with a red face, a clear expression of anger. Nevertheless, his actions spoke louder than words — his silence indicated his tacit approval of the senators' stance.

Guang Beijia's final defense line in her heart completely crumbled. Biting her lip tightly, she trembled as she slowly stood up, furrowing her brows and saying, "Alright! I can go this time! But everything I do today is for the council, for the shelter, for everyone! After this matter, I hope everyone keeps it confidential."

Though she agreed to the task, she still didn't want others to know, especially the civilians and ordinary soldiers in the shelter. In everyone's eyes, she had always been an image of purity and nobility, akin to the Virgin Mary. If this matter spread, she couldn't imagine how others would view her.

"Naturally!" Shen Xudong stood up solemnly and said, "Today, Guang General is willing to make such a sacrifice for the council and everyone. We admire that! From now on, Guang General will forever be our number one council leader!"

Although Shen Xudong's words were as he said, he had long been planning. Once this matter succeeded and Alex was eliminated, Gu would certainly no longer be as fervent towards Guang Beijia. At that time, he would find an opportunity to get a few women for Gu and then use the past compromise between Guang Beijia and Alex to force her to step down.

By then, he, Shen Xudong, could truly sit in the position of the number one council leader, reaching the pinnacle of power. At that time, he could use his position and his daughter's military power to implement his vision, turning this shelter into the beautiful home he dreamed of.

Although he knew his actions were despicable, deceiving his own daughter, causing harm to his son-in-law, and betraying Guang Beijia, he was determined to proceed.

However, everything he did was for his ideal and for his revenge. It was also to ensure that the civilians within the shelter wouldn't suffer cruel treatment. He believed that he was great and sacred. As long as his intentions were good, the process didn't matter.

After receiving the commitment from everyone, Guang Beijia tidied her clothes and walked towards the command center where Alex was located, resembling a great and sacred Madonna.

"What a great woman! Sacrificing herself repeatedly for others, but in the end, she just becomes someone else's plaything!" Ge, who had been silent all along, watched Guang Beijia's departing figure and sneered.

At this moment, Ge had already lost any feelings for Guang Beijia. Because the one controlling Ge's body at the moment was the mastermind of the conspiracy—Alex!

...

After explaining her purpose, Guang Beijia was immediately taken into the command center. After several inspections, she was finally led into the command center.

The original council meeting room had been transformed into a dining room and lounge. Alex had assigned the other councilors' offices to his subordinates. The monitoring center was also under the watch of Alex's trusted followers.

Since Alex took control, all these facilities that were originally meant for shared use by the council were monopolized by Alex alone. Even the most luxurious and largest office in the command center, Guang Beijia's office, had become Alex's office.

In just one day under Alex's rule, everything had changed drastically. This left Guang Beijia, who used to be the number one figure, feeling melancholic and bitter.

"Miss Guang, our master is waiting for you inside," the maid said, respectfully opening the door to Guang Beijia's office.

Guang Beijia's complexion turned even paler. Thinking about what was about to happen, her body trembled violently once again. Staring at the familiar office, it felt like she was looking at the gates of hell, unable to take a single step forward. Was she really going in? Was she really giving up years of persistence and faith? Was what she was doing fair to her husband who died for her?

Guang Beijia suddenly burst into tears, biting her lip tightly, letting tears flow from the corners of her eyes, dampening the pristine white blouse in front of her.

"Miss Guang?" the maid reminded, snapping Guang Beijia out of her sorrow and struggle.

"Miss Guang, Alex is waiting for you inside. You better hurry! Don't make Alex unhappy," the maid's cold voice echoed again, sending shivers down Guang Beijia's spine.

"Also, you better wipe away your tears, smile as you go in. Alex doesn't like people who resist," the maid added, making Guang Beijia tremble even more. Why did everything turn out like this? A maid of Alex dared to speak to her like this?

Whether before or after the apocalypse, she was the first CEO of Jiang City, someone who could hold her head high, proud to do whatever she wanted, refusing anything she wanted to refuse. Everyone had to please her, even her opponents had to show respect. But now! She had to endure the pain in her heart, put on a fake smile, and pretend to comply.

Even in the face of a lowly maid, she had to endure humiliation and bear the burden!

"After today, everything will be fine! I will reclaim everything I've lost! Endure this once, and in the future, I will still be the number one woman on top!"

"All that I endure today, all that I sacrifice, is for the council, for the shelter, for everyone! I am great! Everything I do is sacred!"

Guang Beijia convinced herself in her heart, gritting her teeth to wipe away the tears on her face. She put on a pleasing smile, then stepped into her once-owned office.

The door closed gently.

Everything in front of her remained unchanged.

A mahogany desk with a computer and two phones.

On the wall behind the desk hung a dignified photo.

And two flags symbolizing the authority of the office's owner.

A vast space, luxurious leather sofa.

A tea table made of white jade.

Everything was exactly the same as she had arranged it.

The only thing that changed was that the person sitting in that prestigious position was no longer herself but a young man! fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

And she could only sit as a guest, wearing a face full of flattery and fake smiles.

In the past, others used to come to her like this!

Back then, she was on top!

And now, she was as humble as a beggar!
