Ice and Fire novel Chapter 888

"They wouldn't leave you alone if they get to know you are responsible, you will never be able to relax in life! What's more..." Before Mond could finish his words, he was again interrupted by Sally.

"I don't care! I must achieve my aims!" Sally said angrily. Suddenly, she furiously stared at Mond and asked, "If Lawrence plans to kill me, will you help and save my life?"

"No," Mond replied without hesitation. "I will take his side."

"Why do all of you always take Chu family's side?" Sally shouted hysterically. At the same time, she felt a bit sad because she didn't expect Mond to be so resolute; she thought him to at least comfort her. In her heart, Mond was the only person that she could trust and get close to apart from Jackson.

"I have no reason not to protect Lawrence. I have to do it!" Mond was no longer the person who had planned revenge earlier and now he was Lawrence's uncle too. He had always treated Lawrence as his own child ever since the time when he gave up revenge and accepted Chu family. As an elder, he would protect him, take care of him and love him no matter what cost he has to give for that.

"Ah-hem," Sally suddenly burst into laughter. She felt it ridiculous and funny after hearing Mond's words. After letting out a heavy sigh, she stood up, walked beside the window, looked outside and said, "Fortunately, I haven't placed much hope on you. Or, I would have been very disappointed."

Mond didn't say a word and lowered his head, being at a loss of words.

...

In Yuwen's house, Jacob and Elsa sat on the sofa of the living room with Wilson and Selina sitting beside them. All of them looked solemn and grave.

"Wilson, do you think that should we go and pay a visit to Fred? Violet, after all, is his daughter-in-law and Jackson and Cherry are also not home. Do you think we should go and show our concern since we are Violet's family members?" Elsa broke the silence and asked Wilson. They all had got the news about Sharon just now and that was why the family was sitting together to discuss it.

"I don't think it is necessary, mother! My brother and Mond had gone to Xiao home and Greg was not in good mood at that time. Fred is still dazed and it won't look nice if we go there this time," Selina said, feeling distressed. Though she had once hated to see Sharon and even quarreled with her because of concern for Violet, she still felt sad that Sally had killed Sharon. Instead, she now hated the cruel Sally more!

Elsa lowered her head, without saying a word about the whole situation.

"Selina is right! If Lawrence is home, he can go and visit the Xiao family on behalf of our family. It's useless for all of us to go there," Jacob commented.

"If Lawrence would have been home, this incident wouldn't have happened!" Wilson suddenly said. "Sally took advantage of Lawrence's absence and got her work done."

"Ah, I feel so distressed for Greg. He has already suffered too much and now he has to shoulder everything!" Elsa sighed.

Selina and Wilson looked at each other and Wilson asked, "How about we both go and meet Greg tomorrow? I think he needs our help and encouragement."

Looking into Wilson's eyes, Selina finally agreed to that and nodded her head.

In the morning, when Wilson and Selina arrived at the Xiao home, they saw four men in black standing at the gate and several bodyguards patrolling in the courtyard.

Selina turned to ask Wilson, "Are these men assigned by the Yu family?"

"Yes," Wilson gave her a nod.
