Chapter 81
Who was Commander Latrell, as mentioned by Tobias? Brody fell into thought, realizing that he had never heard that name before. But that was understandable. After all, the entire Hill family ignored him, a playboy, and they wouldn’t tell Brody anything.
But why did that name sound so much like Frostpeak Dark Warriors’ reference to Gavin as the Dark Lord? Brody couldn’t help but be curious,
What was more, Commander Latrell even considered Frostpeak Dark Warriors as a significant threat.
It was clear that Commander Latrell’s identity was far from ordinary.
Brody, a scion who had long been ostracized within his own family, had no idea about the person Tobias was referring to as Commander Latrell.
He didn’t even care about the discussions taking place in his family’s council chamber.
At that moment, Brody licked his lips, wore a triumphant smile on his face, and silently thought.
“Huh! I know you never regarded me as a member of the Hill family!
Just you wait. I am going to record everything you were talking about and take it to Brookspring to show Mr. Clifford!”
It was so impressive!
Brody was truly something!
Even at his own home, he was thinking about serving Gavin.
Furthermore, Brody planned to steal confidential information from his own family and present it to Gavin to hear and see.
Oh my god!
Quite the obedient lapdog potential Brody had!
At that moment, Gavin was completely unaware of Brody’s role as his willing henchman.
He had returned to his rented apartment with a sense of unease.
As soon as he entered, he saw Zoe and Layla, one on each side, pulling Kris, seated between them, on the sofa.
Just as he closed the door, all three women simultaneously raised their heads to look at Gavin.
These three women, Zoe cute, Layla youthful, and Kris carrying a hint of maturity, were all stunning beauties, to say the
least
Any man would have thought twice about leaving the house with them around.
Of course, Gavin was no ordinary man, and most of them were his relatives.
When he saw Kris, Gavin’s expression became somewhat awkward.
Unexpectedly, all three women, as if on cue, burst into laughter upon seeing Gavin, their eyes harboring a mischievous
twinkle
Gavin found himself even more embarrassed and coughed before asking
“Hey! What’s so funny? Why are you all laughing?”
On the other side, Layla, covering her mouth, looked at Gavin and spoke.
“Gavin. I couldn’t believe you were so mischievous when you used to take baths with Kris as a kid *
“Me, mischievous?”
Gavin was taken aback by this and then nervously raised his voice.
“Whe
ad I ever been mist húrvous! Kris, don’t make things up”
Krix still covering her mouth and chuckling, her cheeks slightly flushed, playfully spoke in a louder voice.
“Oh, come on. Who was it that wanted to see why I looked so different from him when he was kid?
Hey hey hry”
What did she mean by looking different!
because of the gender difference!
astily interjected his face tur
Kris was actually shy in her heart, but when she said this, there was a bright look in her eyes. She actually wanted to spoke again.
“I’m not talking nonsense. You’re not just like that. You’re also…
“Alright! Don’t say anymore!”
Although Gavin was currently feeling embarrassed thanks to Kris, he was also happy.
It had been a long time since he had experienced the presence of loved ones.
Moreover, Kris and the other two women weren’t teasing him on purpose.
However, they also wanted to find that sense of harmony they had once enjoyed, just like then.
Gavin sat comfortably alone on the living room sofa, watching TV, while in the kitchen, Zoe and Layla, under Kris’s guidance, prepared dinner for this family of four.
Across the street, in a high-rise apartment building one block away from Gavin’s rented apartment, another family was also preparing dinner.
This family was the Jordan family, where Violet resided. Her father, Robert, sat on the couch, watching Violet, who appeared exhausted and lay on the carpet, with concern in his eyes.
He said worriedly, “Violet, what happened today? Is there anything trouble to deal with? Why do you look so tired?”
Violet, lying on the floor, weakly waved her hand and spoke.
“Dad, please don’t mention it. Something big happened in Brookspring!”
Robert, upon hearing Violet’s words, raised an eyebrow. It was as if he had figured out something. Still, he pretended to be curious and spoke.
“Was it some major case?”
Violet, sitting up with effort, solemnly told Robert.
“Dad, did you know that the Harper family, one of the Four Greatest Families of Brookspring, was wiped out overnight?”
Robert was well aware of this matter, and he knew who was responsible for it.
However, at this time, he acted surprised and spoke.
“What? Did such a thing happen?”
Violet was convinced of her father’s reaction and nodded vigorously.
“That’s right.
“Originally, the National Security Bureau believed it was a case between ordinary people.
“But then, the Holman family’s Oceanfront Clubhouse was also attacked in the same way! The scene was truly horrifying. We had no idea who could be so ruthless.
“We felt there was a connection between these two cases, but after a whole day of investigation, we didn’t find any leads”
After saying this, Violet lost her strength and lay back down.
Meanwhile, Robert looked at her curiously and asked.
“Since there are no leads, are you going back after dinner?”
Violet weakly shook her hand and spoke.
“No, because this was clearly not something ordinary people could do. So, that afternoon, the Warrior Surveillance Bureau in Brookspring officially took over the case.
“Otherwise, I wouldn’t have come back now”
“The Warrior Surveillance Bureau**
When Robert heard this, his eyebrows slightly raised, and a hint of tension appeared in his eyes.
Violet didn’t notice her father’s reaction and casually continued.
“Yes, it couldn’t have been the work of ordinary people to commit such hemous acts. It must be the warriors doing
“The Dad” Where are you going”
Robert had already stood up and was heading toward the front door
His wife also poked her head out from the kitchen and
“Kobert, where are you going’ Dinner will be ready soon!”
L
On the other side, Robert just smiled and spoke loudly.
“I’m stepping out for a moment. I’ll be back in no time! It won’t take long!”
After that, Robert left his home, leaving Violet and her mother puzzled as they exchanged looks.
Violet’s mother spoke up.
“What’s gotten into your dad?”
Violet shook her head, but her eyes revealed a different feeling. She then spoke.
“Mom, you go ahead and prepare dinner. I’ll go check.”
Violet seemed to have finally noticed Robert’s unusual behavior. She cautiously pushed the door open and followed him.
Both Robert and Violet possessed strong tracking and counter-tracking abilities.
However, Robert had something on his mind, and he didn’t expect Violet to follow him, so he remained completely
Robert headed to the elevator in the building where Gavin’s apartment was located, and Violet followed closely behind.
Robert stood in front of Gavin’s apartment door and rang the doorbell.
Violet, puzzled, watched this scene and wondered.
“How come I didn’t know my dad had friends in this building?” Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
While Violet was still inquisitive, the sound of the door opening could be heard. Then, Violet heard her father’s voice, somewhat hoarse but filled with excitement, saying, “Greetings, Master. It’s Twiggy!”
