Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1840

Nevertheless, the two SteelFort members had no choice but to pass the message in the end.

What left them utterly stunned was how they received news from Oceanic Estate within twenty minutes.

“Mr. Hayes says that place should be Eddie's other military supply storehouse.”

“The other?” A frown formed between Kurt's brows.

I remembered Karl mentioning the military supply storehouse. According to him, it should've been blown up in the underground tunnel during the battle back then. Why will there still be one here?

“Does that mean that he is a remnant of Eddie's followers? And he's going to make a comeback? Then why is he after Susan and Timothy? Aren't they the grandchildren of Eddie?”

“Erm... that's not it. Don't get too agitated, Kurt. Mr. Hayes says this person probably only wants to seek revenge for his family.” The SteelFort member sounded a little awkward. He took out the phone and clicked open to show Kurt the information Sebastian sent.

Revenge?

Kurt was left completely puzzled until he took the phone over and saw the photo that revealed the true identity of that person before his eyes.

“Maurice White? His last name is White?”

“Yes. He's the grandson of Alfred's brother. Back then, after Alfred suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Mr. Hayes, Eddie saw that there was no use for this pawn anymore. Afraid that Alfred would divulge his secrets, he got Elizabeth to poison them to death.”

“Poison them to death?” Kurt raised an eyebrow.

 

“That's right. This child coincidentally was placed under his grandma's care, and that was how he was lucky to escape death.”

Kurt's face turned grim.

Without a doubt, he knew who Elizabeth was. He was, after all, the one who killed her.

Even if she has something to do with Eddie, she's still Alfred's wife. They even gave birth to Baylor. How could she be that ruthless?

Kurt shifted his gaze to Maurice again, who was barely alive after being badly whacked up by him earlier.

“So, your real motive is to avenge your family members?”

“I-Isn't that the same? Aren't those names on the list all die at Eddie's hands? I merely gathered them together. I-Is there anything wrong with me killing Eddie's descendants and taking his things?” Trembling involuntarily on the floor, he exerted all his energy to query his doubts.

Kurt went silent.

He could not find words to answer those questions. After all, Eddie was also his enemy whom he held a grudge with.

Back then, had he not colluded with Daphne in an attempt to usurp Elysium to make it his base, Daphne would not have bewitched his father to kill his heir, one after another.
