Chapter 1689
Griffon nodded and lowered his head to kiss Taya's hair. "I'm sorry for worrying you," he said.
Taya lifted her head from his embrace and looked up at the man with a well-defined jawline. "I just saw Tara. Is there something you need to talk to her about?"
Griffon tensed up, surprised that she had seen Tara. After hesitating for a moment, he spoke softly, "She has a list of S members. I want to deal with her."
He actually intended to kill her, but he failed. Everyone around Tara was part of Erebus, and if he went after her as Griffon, they would suspect him. Fortunately, before he rushed out, he saw the identification badge on the other person and canceled his plan.
But he still had a question. Why didn't Tara or Mr. Ben tell Erebus about his identity? Or perhaps Erebus already knew and was just leading him into a trap. After all, Erebus was formed to take down the leader of S. Since they already knew who the leader was, why didn't they capture him?
Taya quickly believed him. "Did you get the list back?"
Griffon shook his head gently. "There's a person named Mr. Ben with her. He memorized the list. Unless Mr. Ben dies, I won't be able to get it back."
Taya wanted to ask who Mr. Ben was, but Griffon had a serious expression, as if he had encountered something difficult.
At times like this, Taya didn't want to bother him. After a moment of contemplation, Griffon bent down slightly and lifted her up in his arms. "I'll take care of my business. Don't worry. Let's go to Preston's mating ceremony."
Griffon always brought peace to Taya, never any worries. Even though he had a heavy heart now, he didn't want her to worry.
Understanding his intentions, Taya reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck. She obediently replied, "Okay."
Her gentleness had always been a soothing balm for Griffon' soul. Just a simple word from her could sweep away his troubles and make him fearlessly move forward.
Silas, who had witnessed this scene, lowered his eyelashes slowly, hiding his endless desolation. Edith, who had been observing him from afar, casually took a glass of champagne from a waiter and walked over.
