Chapter 2265
They were usually targeted in advance, and step by step, they were then lured into the trap that had already been set up beforehand. Step by step, they were tricked into gambling all of their family fortunes away. As a result, they would be in a lot of debt. In the end, they would have a crushing debt that could never be repaid, so they had to use their bodies as the capital to pay off their debts until their bodies were completely worthless. In the end, they would be secretly executed.
Such a vast and despicable criminal gang was quickly destroyed by the police with the clues provided by vireo. However, no one knew what the Payne sisters had been through in those three days. By the time the police found them, they were already dead. Their bodies were covered in bruises and not a single part of them from top to bottom was spared. The mouth of the eldest sister, Chloe, was even slit open, when Vireo saw that the sisters died so miserably, he could hardly bear to look at them. 1
In the short span of three days, the entire Payne family had died. Vireo was the one who was in charge of handling the Payne family's funeral arrangements. After everything was all settled, a week had already gone by. Vireo also lost a lot of weight. On Sunday, all of his relatives in South city came to his house, and he was still in great pain. 1
"Holden, don't be sad. They deserved what they got. You weren't the one who got them involved in gambling. You also weren't the one who had asked them to buy a baby back then. All the years of abuse they had inflicted on you were also their crime. It is said that people who do bad things would get punished. This is the retribution that they deserved to get. Don't be sad anymore, son. If you're sad, I'll also be sad." Elsa was standing in front of Vireo while holding a bowl of refreshing soup in her hands.
Elsa had been a nun for decades, so she believed in divine retributions the most.
After he had two days to cope with everything, Vireo seemed much calmer. He looked at his mother and smiled a little. "Thank you, Mom. You have been so concerned about me. I'm fine. In fact, I had already figured it all out. It's just that they were once the people whom I've lived with, after all. I have also once treated them like my parents and sisters. All of them died so suddenly, so it was a little hard for me to accept it."
"I know." Elsa teared up. Her son was a caring person who valued relationships.
"In the future, I'll go and visit your adoptive parents' grave with you every year," said Isadora, wrapping an arm around vireo's shoulders.
Vireo nodded, and then he raised his exhausted eyes to look at all of the loved ones that came to visit him. Sean, Sebastian, Sabrina, as well as Sebastian and Sabrina's three children, including Sabrina's mother, Gloria, came over. Sabrina's cousin, Marcus, as well as Yvonne also came. At the side, there was also Zayn and his wife, as well as their child. The person who sat on Vireo's left side was Minerva, who had been addressing him as her uncle as if he was truly her uncle, as well as her boyfriend, Nigel. There were also a group of children running and playing on the balcony while Ruth was watching over them. A smile gradually appeared on Vireo's face.
"That's right. My heart and soul will be in South City from now on. I no longer have anything to do with the people in the small county. Their deaths have nothing to do with me as well. I will be a very good doctor. At home, I will be a good husband and a good son."
After saying that, he stood up and looked cheerfully at everyone present. "Tell me, what would you guys like to eat today? I'll personally cook for you. Not only am I good with knives on the operating table, but I'm just as good with knives in the kitchen!"
"Uncle Holden, I want to have porkchops. The kind that has bread crumbs and sesame on top," said Aino, who was on the balcony.
