Supreme Mars novel Chapter 385

Millie sounded edgy and anxious.
Leo immediately squinted his eyes, “What happened? Why is he dead all of a sudden?”
He was confident of Millie's capability, so the situation in the Perry Family must be complicated now that she felt powerless.
Millie then begged, “I’m in the Spencers right now. Can you come over now?”
“Sure!” Leo answered without hesitation.
After handing up the phone, Leo grabbed his coat and was about to leave.
“Do you need to deal with something?” Lydia asked lightly.
Leo looked sorry, “Something happened to the Perry Family. A friend of mine is in trouble...”
Lydia hurriedly nodded and put on his coat for him, “Travel safely.”
“Thank you!”
Leo was really touched by Lydia’s small gesture.
He knew that Lydia was not only a great wife, she was also an amazing mom.
The house of the Spencer Family was in the complete opposite of the Perry Family and was located in the outskirt of the city.
Leo soon arrived at the one of Spencer’s mansions.
“Hello, Mr. Cohen!”
People hurriedly greeted when Leo strode in.
The master of the Spencer Family, Wallace, had ordered everyone to pledge their loyalty to Leo.
Leo nodded and entered one of the guest rooms guided by a person in charge.
Millie and Wallace were both sitting inside.
Leo immediately saw Millie's haggard face and dark eye bags.
Wallace instantly stood up, “Mr. Cohen, Frank was assassinated.”
“Assassinated?”
Leo got fierce. If Frank died out of normal cause, no one would be alarmed, but the thing was that he was murdered, so the whole thing got complicated.
“Who did this? Do you have any leads?” Leo questioned.
Everyone could be the murderer right now and it could be one of the Perries who did this.
Millie shook her head, “He is having dinner with several of his friends a few hours ago, but a bunch of people suddenly stormed in and stabbed him violently and one of the stabs was on his stomach, so he later died in the hospital after rescue.”
“Where is the murderer?”
“They are dead.”
Wallace let out a sigh, “Two of the murderers were shot to death on the spot, but their bodies were taken away by their partners
The rest of them committed suicide, but before the Perry Family arrived, their faces were disfigured and couldn’t be identified right now.”
Leo squinted his eyes, “Well, this obviously is an elaborate murder. They didn’t leave any traces.”
“the funeral ceremony will be held tomorrow.”
Millie said to Leo and then turned to Leo with tears in his eyes, “Leo, I’m exhausted. Can you give me a hug?”
Leo’s instinctive reaction was to reject, but looking at her reddened eyes, he got sorry and hugged Millie who didn’t try to do anything inappropriate.
Her shoulder started trembling and slowly sobbed.
She then fell into sleep leaning against Leo in a while.
She was sleeping soundly. Well, this must be the security that women longed for.
Leo and Wallace met each other’s eyes and both sighed.
Though Millie hated Frank, he was her biological father and anything seemed to be trivial before death.
Wallace then asked someone to carry Millie into the bedroom and started talking with Leo.
“Now that Frank is dead, your family would be the number one suspect.” Leo said to Wallace.
But Wallace seemed calm, “Well, it’s inevitable, but we didn’t do it, so we are not afraid of assumptions.”
Leo gazed at Wallace approvingly. Though Wallace was pretty aggressive, he was straightforward and would never do something shitty.
“The Perry Family would be in a turmoil now that Frank is dead. Inform me of anything!”
After learning about every detail of Frank’s death, Leo meant to leave.
“Moreover, tell Millie, I will accompany her to the funeral tomorrow.”
“Thank you, Mr. Cohen!”
Wallace hurriedly added, “Well, I got to pay my tribute then!”
Leo and Millie would definitely be despised at the funeral tomorrow, so he can also be there to support them.
Leo cracked a smiled and left without saying anything.
However, a back Audi slowly left after Leo in the corner of the street and someone in the car whispered, “The bait is set, Miss.”
At the same time, Kate hung up the phone indifferently and stared at the amazing night view of Emerdale in the Lawson Group
Building.
Well, all the neon lights couldn’t trigger her interest. Conversely, she got sadder.
“Kate.”
“Miss Lawson.”
The office door was then pushed open and two men came in.
If Leo was here, he can definitely recognize one of them.
Jaxon was one of them.
Well, Leo probably wouldn’t know the other one, but he can absolutely guess his identity.
This man was wearing a golden emblem which was the same to the the Cohen family emblem that Leo auctioned.
Kate turned around, glanced at them and didn’t say anything.
Jaxon didn’t mind and just smiled, “Miss Lawson, is everything ready?”
Kate remained silent and just nodded.
“Well, Miss Lawson is surly competent! I’m really impressed!”
Jaxon chuckled and turned to the man standing next to him, “Archie, congratulations! Miss Lawson will soon to be your wife!”
Archie smiled lightly.
“Well, she surly is skilled since she is going to marry into my family.
He then turned to Jaxon, “Well, the rich families in Emerdale aren’t as powerful as they appear to be. Why would you ask Kate to deal with an abandoned person of a small family?”
Jaxon wasn’t annoyed and just laughed, “Well, Archie, you can’t be so certain on that. You will know how shrewd he is when you get to confront him.”
“Well, are you interested? Do you want to join us? Our aim is to destroy the woman behind her? The more people, the merrier.”
Jaxon chortled and offered.
Archie smiled and while he was about to decline, the butler of the Cohen family called him.
His smile gradually disappeared after hearing what Robbie said.
“Did he really say that?”
“Yes, he declined our offer and said that were are nothing to him.”
“Son of a bitch!”
Archie shouted and hung up the phone and let out a complex smile.
“Well then, since I haven't found the person that I’m looking for, I will just stay here for a couple of days and have fun with you.”
Jaxon was excited, “Welcome aboard, Archie! We will definitely win!”
“Are you guys done?” Kate suddenly said and looked at them coldly.
“Well, the big picture is in place now, but I have to iron out some details. Leave me alone.” Kate sounded irritated.
Jaxon and Archie looked each other and left without saying anything.
After they left, the anger in Kate’s face instantly disappeared and stood in front of the French window alone, “Leo, do not blame me...”
