Chapter 279
At nine o'clock in the morning.
The interior of the dojo was so clean that not a speck of dust could be seen.
On the small balcony on the third floor, Luca and Hamza were sitting face to face. They played a game of chess, but neither of them had the mood to continue.
In the end, the two elders leaned against the window and sneaked a peek in the direction of the door. Eliza was wearing a white Tao robe, standing straight at the door with several attendants of the dojo. Eliza used to have long black hair, and she always liked to tie it into a ponytail. The current Cerys had a fresh, neat short hair and she looked dashing.
He looked at his daughter's slender back and couldn't help but smack his lips. “Luca, she's so formal now. Is she really waiting for Roseane or showing off for Beau to see?"
Luca curled his lips and snorted. "Of course it's for her friend!"
"You don't understand her!"
"She said that she doesn't care about Beau, so she really doesn't care about Beau anymore. Don't think so highly of him in her heart!"
As he spoke, he recalled what had happened in Sage City.
Luca could not help but roll his eyes at Hamza and said, "You're the only one who plotted against your own daughter for an outsider.’
"You're turning your elbow outwards.”
Hamza gave him a cold look. "Try turning your elbow inward? Those who don't turn outwards are all disabled!"
Luca: "You're the disabled one!"
The two old men quarreled for a long time, and then Hamza sighed heavily. He turned to Luca and said, "How's your investigation going?”
Luca paused, and his face, which had never been serious, finally became serious.
"I've found it."
"The medicine you and Eliza were drugged with is from the same place-
"It's from a foreign laboratory called K-
"The K laboratory was founded in the year you were in trouble. The boss behind the scenes is a woman named K.
She has been elusive these years, and no one knows her exact movements.’
"But what can be found is..."
Luca took a deep breath. "Elias was a mercenary in those days."
"More than ten years ago, K hired Elias's group to assassinate Shreya.’
"But at that time, Shreya was well prepared and laid an ambush.
"At that time, Elias was the commander, and vice commander was Liam. Shreya had planned to trap them in the forest for a few days, but due to the vice commander's wrong judgment, they lost their way in the forest, leaving only Elias alive in the end."
"His comrades-in-arms were almost completely annihilated. After that incident, Elias left the mercenary team and returned to the Valentine family.”
"On the one hand, he returned to Krine to be the Second Young Master of Valentine family. On the other hand, with the help of K, he was able to set up LY Group in Sage City."
"That is to say, the purpose of the establishment of the company Is to target the Chapman family.”
"What a pity..."
Luca sighed and looked at the Maserati parked at the door with the Valentine family symbol.
"Unfortunately, the one who can punish Elias is someone from the Valentine family.’
If it weren't for Beau's Sahil Group, the Chapman family wouldn't have been able to survive this time so easily. The death of his comrades in the past made Elias hate the Chapman family to the core.
After Shreya became a vegetable, the Chapman family had no leader. They could only rely on the engagement with the Benton family to maintain the last glimmer of hope.
If Beau hadn't appeared in time...
Even if the Chapman family won the struggle with LY Group, it would still be a pyrrhic victory. It was impossible for them to escape unscathed.
"He is not a member of the Valentine family.’
Hamza stared at the black Maserati and sighed.
"If Vincent knew that the woman was pregnant when she left him... he wouldn't have made that decision, would he?"
