Chapter 1193
Griffon furrowed his brow and agreed, “Go ahead.”
Carol spoke slowly, “Your father didn’t commit suicide, and your older brother also died from taking the wrong medicine. That’s all I know. I believe with your abilities, you should be able to uncover the truth.”
After Carol finished speaking, she hung up the phone. Griffon stared at the black screen, lost in thought.
Gloria killed his own mother, but kept Griffon by her side to torture him and get revenge on his father…
Griffon’s father, upon learning of Ashley’s death, died in the fire while trying to save others. Gloria risked his own life to rescue people.
No matter how he thought about it, Griffon couldn’t believe that Gloria would go save his father. At most, she would save his older brother. But Gloria never denied it…
Could his father’s death be related to Gloria? And what about his older brother…
He suddenly remembered that Tara had once said that she was the only one who knew the truth about his older brother’s death.
Illegitimate pup, cousin, father and older brother’s deaths, all of
these things piled up and gave him a headache.
He raised his fingers and pressed them against his temples, rubbing hard, but the pain wouldn’t go away…

Upon waking up, Taya instinctively reached out to hug Griffon, but found nothing there. She ran her fingers over the soft bedsheet, feeling the coldness.
She opened her eyes and didn’t see Griffon. She quickly turned on the bedside lamp and checked the time. It was four in the morning and he hadn’t come back to rest.
Taya got out of bed and searched upstairs and downstairs, but couldn’t find him. Finally, she found him sitting on a wooden chair in the garden.
As far as she knew, he had quit smoking a long time ago. But at this moment, the man sitting in the flower garden was holding a slender cigarette between his long fingers.
Amidst the swirling smoke, a half-lit face appeared, like an eagle lurking in the darkness, emitting an aura that made people afraid to approach.
Taya didn’t go over to disturb him, but stood silently in the distance, keeping him company…
