Chapter 843
“Uncle Conall?! How can you yell at me like that?!” Annie stared at Conall in disbelief. “You’ve never raised your
voice at me like this.”
“She’s my daughter. Do you ever think about how I feel when you badmouth her in front of me?” Conall glared at
Annie furiously.
Annie began to well up with tears, “And have you all thought about what I feel? I’ve never done anything wrong. Yet
Conrad and Fia did that to me…”
“Annie, shut up!” Finn finally could not bear to see his daughter misbehaving like this
anymore.
He knew very well that his daughter had fallen for Conrad and that she had been trying to wreck Conrad and Fia’s
marriage.
Had he not uncovered her scheme in time, forced her to resign from Maxwell Corporation, who knew what else she
had up her sleeve!
“Dad…”
“I’ve told you! You are to return to Lumenpolis and stay put!” Finn gave her a stern order before turning to Joy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Dear sister-in-law, I’m afraid I’ll have to depend on you to keep an eye on her. She’s still young and immature so
she is prone to making mistakes.”
Joy nodded. “Staying in Lumenpolis could be a good thing for Annie. She could also provide. company for Felicity.”
The meal then ended on a bad note.
When the Parker brothers walked into the study, Conall impatiently asked, “Be honest with me. What happened to
Fia?”
“Something did happen alright… For some reason, Fia was sure that Britney, Barbara’s sister, is actually Esme
Manning in disguise. She almost pushed her down a bridge and drowned her.”
Finn furrowed his brows and said, “We’re still investigating this. But the investigation has been going poorly because
a certain organization has been pulling strings to conceal information and evidence.”
“Hellish Training Camp,” Conall said in a sullen face. “Only Hellish Training Camp has resources to do that.”
Finn asked in surprise, “Are you telling me that the Thomas family has ties with that camp?”
“No, that’s not possible.” Conall shook his head and said confidently, “Hellish Training Camp is a secret organization.
No one truly knows where its headquarters are. They rejected me when I wanted to do business with them so the
Thomases can’t possibly be worthy enough to use their resources.”
“Then why are they stopping us from investigating the case?”
“We need to find out what kind of people Barbara’s sister has been dealing with. Perhaps she had gotten in touch
with people who have ties with Hellish Training Camp. And not just anyone from the camp. It’s someone with a high
position there.”
“There’s a certain someone. He’s a son of the Hall family.”
Finn revealed the person cautiously to his brother.
Hearing this, a frown appeared on Conall’s face. “You mean that Hall family from Gryphon City?”
Finn nodded.
Conall probed even further, “The son of Mr. Hall who jumped off a building after his went bankrupt?”
company
“Yes.” Finn confirmed his brother’s speculation with a sullen face. “Brother, do you think this is all… connected
somehow?”
Conall said determinedly, “It doesn’t matter if they’re connected. We need to get to the bottom of this!”
Conall recalled the time when he got hit by a motorcycle. The perpetrator said he was under the influence of
alcohol so he could not control his bike. When he thought about it, Conall could not help but feel that it was not as
simple as that.
“Finn, if we can’t dig out anything about that Hall boy, we’ll interrogate his parents for information!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmConall’s eyes turned vicious and cruel. “If they want to hurt Fia, I’ll have their heads!”
“Conall…! Brother…! This is all just speculation. Besides, Barbara’s sister hasn’t harmed Fia. It was Fia who
accidentally hurt her. She even dropped her charges against Fia.”
Finn did not want Barbara to come pestering him about her sister later. Even though they could not reconcile and
become lovers again, he was hoping to remain as her friend. He did. not want her as his enemy.
“If Fia suspects her, then surely there must be a reason for it! Fia is a kind and gentle girl. She wouldn’t suspect an
innocent person for no reason!”
“Conall, I think it’s because Fia was overly suspicious of everyone around her. Barbara’s sister is a mousy person.
She doesn’t look or act like Esme Manning at all. Besides, Esme Manning is dead. We even retrieved her corpse and
identified it to be her. The corpse’s DNA matches hers.” Finn kept on trying to persuade his brother to prevent him
from doing something he might regret later in Fia’s name.
Conall looked at Finn grimly. “Then why is Fia suspicious of her and her only out of so many people on the planet?”
Finn sighed. “It’s all Conrad’s fault. Although he has a bad temper, Conrad is a capable man. And he’s extremely
handsome too. So it’s not unusual to have many women chasing after him. This has made Fia mistrustful of people.
Now, everyone looks like a bad person to her.” Conall glared at his brother furiously. “What bullsh*t are you
spouting at me, Finn?!”
