Chapter 493 A Person With A Story (1/2)

Moore pondered for a while. 'If that was a person that made Zed act with discretion, then he must have a similar social status to Zed.

If that was the case, would Leo be in danger?'

Moore had seen Zed's bodyguards around him. All of them had topnotched fighting skills that the ordinary bodyguards were far behind to catch up with, so he thought it would be such a threat.

Moore made a mental note to discuss with Jean about letting Leo stop doing that job.

'Since Zed has never given up looking for the real culprit, we don't need to waste the effort now.' Moore shook his head and sighed under his breath.

On the other hand, Jean started to get worried after noticing the silence that enveloped both Zed and Zack right after Zed's words. She walked over and composed herself before breaking the silence. ”What were you two talking about just now?”

Both Zed and Zack turned abruptly and looked alarmed. After seeing Jean and Moore, the two of them relaxed a little bit.

Zed looked at Jean with a confused expression and asked,”Why are you here? Did you both fly? How could you two walk without a sound?” Zack chuckled to help lighten up the mood.

Ignoring this joke, Jean fixed her eyes on Zed. ”If we let you know we were here long enough, how can I get to know the one - wait, what was her name? Christina? Who is she?”

”So you heard,” Zed said, who looked at Zack with the same alarmed expression. Zed sighed and smiled bitterly at Jean. ”Christina was a friend of Magnolia and Jesse, who played together with them since childhood. Zack went to see Magnolia lately, and they talked about their past. That is why he mentioned her name.”

As soon as Zed finished, he gave a secret wink at Zack, making sure that it was not deliberate.

Zack understood Zed's intention immediately. He turned to Jean and gave her a reassuring smile. ”Yes, that's right. Back then our neighborhood was really fun. There were more than a dozen of kids that were near my age. We hung out, did mischievous things, and messed around when we were young. Recalling then, we did have a good time together.” Zack nodded at this.

”However, we are all grown-ups now, and busy with our own business. We rarely contact each other. Frankly, I really miss the innocent and carefree times we once had. The times where there weren't any worry, no competition or scheming against others for whatsoever reasons…”

Jean stopped listening as Zack trailed on about the advantages of their carefree past. She noticed how intentional it was for Zack to shift the topic. Because of that, Jean was more certain that they knew the person behind the scenes of the video incident.
