Oscar gave him a wry smile and changed the subject. âYour Aunt Luna is already waiting for us, letâs go.â
âOkay.â Charles did not bother with the question just now as he walked out of the room with a cold look on his face.
He could care less what his uncle and aunts were plotting against him. He just wanted to know who the mysterious bigshot hiding behind the curtain was!
âUh, wait a minute, Iâll come along! We must discuss such an important matter together!â Ted yanked Justin along and followed the two of them.
Now that Grandfather was gone and that mysterious bigshot was no longer able to support them, they must stick to Charles and Oscar at all times!
Otherwise, what would they do if the rest of the family schemed against them?
The group made their way over to the eldest daughter of the Harris familyâs home.
At the sight of Ted and his family, Luna immediately frowned and said in a displeased tone, âSince youâre already here, you better not simply interrupt us when we talk later. Otherwise, Iâll have you thrown out of my home!â
âWhy is it when I speak itâs considered interrupting but...â Ted instantly fell silent as she turned her stern gaze at him. His tone softened slightly as he said, âAlright, alright. Iâll play dumb, okay?â
Luna glared at him for a little while longer before she turned to Justin, who was standing beside him. Then, without saying anything more, she led the group into the house.
The living room was soon filled with people, with Charles sitting at the main seat right next to Luna. Although it was an outlandish sight, him being a junior of the family seated in the head of the familyâs main seat, nobody dared to say anything.
Luna did not bother to beat around the bush either, going straight to the point. âI donât know who the person is.â
Charles pursed his lips when heard this, but kept quiet.
âI didnât ask you to come over just because Iâm eyeing your assets under your name, but for the Harris familyâs sake.â Although this sounded formal, it was indeed her genuine intention. âIf the Harris family falls, everything I have will go down the drain as well.â
Oscar nodded along, further confirming her thoughts.
It was no exaggeration to say that everything they owned was given by the Harris family. If the Harris family lost its superiority, it was not as bad to the point that they would become an ordinary citizen, but it was certainly not much better than that.
Charles still remained silent.
Hence, Luna had no choice but to take the initiative and continued, âI donât know who that person is but Iâm not exactly clueless. I have some ideas in my head, but before I tell you everything I know, I must ask you something: Are you confident?â
If he was not confident in making a move and act recklessly, he would only end up aggravating the bigshot and accelerate the Harris familyâs demise.
âCharles, your aunt means well,â Oscar spoke up, âYou should understand that even your grandfather was incapable of opposing this person, you...â
Although he did not finish his sentence, everyone understood what he meant.
Charles leaned back into the sofa, his expression still as indifferent as before. âNo.â
He was not confident.
However, he would do everything he could to avenge Sophiaâs death, even if it meant risking everything he had and sacrificing his own life!
Lunaâs expression darkened when she heard his answer. âIf thatâs the case, I canât tell you anything.â
She was not against the idea of opposing this bigshot, but if they were to make a move, it must be one powerful blow that would kill them straight away so that they would not have the chance to counterattack.
âIf you donât tell me now, do you think he would just let our family off the hook just because I donât do anything?â The corner of Charlesâ lips curled up into a smirk. How could someone who had been in the business industry for so many years now still remain so naive?
Luna nodded without hesitation. âYes.â
âWhy donât you have a look at this?â Charles took his phone out and pulled up a few photos before throwing his phone in front of her.
Luna picked up his phone in confusion and zoomed in at the photo. Her expression turned solemn instantly, and she paled when she saw the next few photos.
âWhat... What is the meaning of this?â Her hand that was holding the phone began to shake.
âWhat is it? Whatâs on the phone?â Ted nudged forward and snatched over the phone to scroll through the content.
Charles said, âI still donât know what this person is trying to do, but I am certain of one thing: This person scheming against the Harris family is just using us as a stepping stool.â
âI donât know what theyâre thinking, but if I were this person, I would eliminate all source of the trouble after killing Sophia to prevent future troubles and retaliations, and the human experiment case is just this tool to do so.â
This was the first time he had revealed so much information to them ever since Sophiaâs death.
He did not go too much into details, but he knew that if he wanted to get information and details from his aunt, he had to analyze the situation for them.
The photos on his phone were everything Collin had found out during this period of time, mainly containing some strong evidence of this mysterious bigshot funding Jones Group and working together with Jones Group.
Although Ted was not the sharpest tool in the shed, with all the evidence presented right before him in addition to Charlesâ explanation, it was not difficult for him to figure it out.
Justin was frozen as well.
âAunt Luna, can you start talking now then?â Charles retrieved his phone and asked.
Luna brought her cup of tea to her lips and took a sip before she replied with a frown, âAlright then. Your Aunt Lena is on the way as well and she knows a little bit more than me, letâs just wait for her.â
They did not have to wait too long as Lena arrived not long after with a document folder in hand.
She did not say anything after entering the room but merely looked at her elder sister.
âJust give it to Charles and tell him everything you know about this person.â Now that Luna had run out of luck, she looked dejected than before and there was a trace of exhaustion in her eyes.
-
In the hospital room.
Sophia had reached her limits both mentally and physically. Not long after her infusion, she fell asleep deeply. It was not until sometime near midnight when she heard vague sounds of the door opening and footsteps.
It was probably just the doctor or nurse on night patrol.
Sophia was just too worn out and this was the first thought that came to mind when she heard the noises, so she did not bother to open her eyes to check.
ââ Something was up!
Every trace of exhaustion instantly vanished and Sophiaâs heart began racing against her chest.
âShould we get her out?â
Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around!
ï¤Chapter 459 Do I Need To Remind You Of Every Single One Of Them Sophia heard a man asking softly.
Her heart leaped to the back of her throat. Get her out? Where were they taking her?
The hospital had its own security team and night patrol security team as well, so how did these people get into the building so easily?
Aside from that, she was no longer Sophia White but an ordinary patient. What did these people want with her? Who were they?
