Chapter 699: Chapter 700

“It seems like you’ve been staring at my photos a lot lately.

It’s been years since we last saw each other.

I’m sure I’ve grown to be more gorgeous than you last remembered.

And yet you recognized me at first sight.

”

She walked over to the chair and sat down.

Then, she gestured at someone in the doorway.

Abel stepped into the room and ripped the tape off of Levi’s mouth.

A few of his facial hair came out with it, and he winced in pain.

“I’m your uncle!” He glared at Lucinda.

“How dare you make collude with Cyrus to abduct me? Is this how you treat your elders?”

Lucinda leaned forward and cupped her chin, and then flashed him a smile.

“I’m sure this isn’t your first brush with my… defiant attitude.

In all honestly, you should be grateful for the way I’m treating you right now.

You may be my elder, but we both know that you are without morals and deserve no ounce of respect from anyone.

”

Levi narrowed his eyes.

“I am without morals? I’ve never meddled in the family’s affairs! How dare you call me immoral?”

“Oh really? Why don’t you take a look at this, then?”

Lucinda nodded at Abel, who then held up Kyson’s statement in front of Levi’s face.

“Uncle Levi, I’m not interested in dragging this out and making things harder than they should be.

Just answer the question.

Is Kyson telling the truth?”

Levi peered at the document and read Kyson’s confession carefully.

His face changed with every word he read.

“Oh, my God! This has nothing to do with me! Why would I want to kill you? I was very fond of you when you were younger, do you remember? I used to carry you around all the time! Besides, Kyson is the director of the Secret Investigation Department, whereas I am just another ordinary civilian.

How can I possibly order that man to do anything, let alone kill someone?”

“Is that so? But I heard that your son, Nikolas, is currently working for the military.

If not you, then perhaps he is the one involved in this matter? Should I ask Graham to look into it for me?

“No! It has nothing to do with my son!”

Lucinda banged her fist on the table.

“Why would you say that?” she snarled.

“Kyson admitted everything.

Do you think I would believe any of your bullshit? I know you told Nikolas to give orders to Kyson.

Let me guess, you did all of this for the inheritance, right?”

Levi stared at Lucinda with a solemn expression and said nothing.

“You resent the fact that my father is breaking tradition by leaving everything to me, his daughter, so you joined hands with other good-for-nothing relatives to get rid of me.

You were planning to snatch the entire family fortune afterward, weren’t you? Who else took part in your little scheme? Is Uncle Norris involved, too? What about Florrie?”
