Chapter 376 - Biggest mistake (1/2)
Old man Zhao was in a great panic. This was not what he wanted. He didn't want to anger this man at all. When old man Zhao heard about Sei being the world's most dangerous hacker called Monster, he decided not to ever mess with him. He knew right from that very time that Sei was more than just a dangerous being and his prediction was proven to be right years later. Who would have thought that the boy that his own pathetic and idiotic son disowned and even planned to kill would grow up to become so powerful that he could even hold the world in his hands?
If old man Zhao could go back in time, he wouldn't have listened to Zhao Meng, his idiotic son whose mind was poisoned by a mere useless mistress. But he couldn't go back and nobody could change the past. All Old man Zhao could do was try to make amends for all the things that happened before, to try and build a bridge between his grandson and the rest of the Zhao clan but, unfortunately, Sei was extremely stubborn and never gave him a single chance to get close to him. Sei was like the blazing red majestic sun that no one could ever approach. He tried every method for many years but not even once did he succeed on luring him out.
This was the first time he succeeded and the old man was truly happy. But looking at Sei at this moment, old man Zhao's heart broke. This was not the outcome he wanted. He didn't expect Sei to rage to the point that he seemed to have lost his humanity.
Why? Why did it come into this? Where did it go wrong?
Just as the heart broken old man questioned where it went wrong, his eyes landed on the girl in army clothes and his eyes widened in disbelief. He saw the blood all over her and he felt like everything was over. Old man Zhao finally understood why his grandson suddenly went berserk, and this caused his heart to sink as the last shred of hope left him. 'Why? Didn't I tell them all not to touch her?' Looking at the bloods all over her, old man Zhao could only bow his head down in disbelief. It was all over for him, now. There was no going back anymore...
However, just as the old man was about to give up his dream of getting his grandson back into their family, something suddenly popped in his brain and the great hopelessness and despair in his eyes slowly dissipated as a small flicker of hope lit up inside him. He then started to walk towards the girl.
The old man closed in on her and on his signal, the two frozen men, whose eyes were locked onto the monster just a moment ago, let go of Davi.
That moment, Davi's eyes fell towards this gray-haired old man and the moment she saw those familiar silver-gray eyes, she somehow could already tell that this old man was Sei's relative by blood. In the next moment, her assumption was proven to be correct when the old man spoke.
”Young Miss, I'm Zhao Jianhong. I am Seiji's biological grandfather.” He suddenly said and before Davi could even react, the noble looking old man, who was still oozing with elegance and power despite the obvious desperate look in his eyes, suddenly bowed his head to her as if he was asking a favour from a mighty queen.
Davi was stunned at what he did that she didn't know how to react. W-what's going on? Why was Sei's grandfather bowing his head?
Before Davi could even find a word to say or make a move, the old man raised his face and looked at her in the eyes.
Old man Zhao had finally realized just who this woman was in his grandson's life. She was indeed right to call her another Helen of Troy. Kidnapping this woman would be the cause of the downfall of the Zhao clan at this point. He didn't know that this woman was capable of turning a monster into an even greater monster. He realized that his biggest mistake and the cause of this unfortunate turn of events was that he didn't know just how important this woman was to Sei.
