Chapter 690 - Alarics Advice (1/2)
Aleksis was sad to see her brother's gloomy expression. ”That's good progress. Lily will be healthy soon. Time goes by really fast when you have children, really.”
London nodded in agreement. ”Later, when Lily is healthy, I'll take her to Singapore so she can get acquainted with her two cousins.”
”Actually, we plan to go to Germany in two months... We can meet there too,” Aleksis replied. She then sat on the sofa, next to her husband who no longer looked angry. Aleksis patted Alaric's hand gently and turned to him while discussing their flight plans back to Europe. ”We're going to Europe to meet Alaric's foster children and give them their immortality potions. Isn't that right, Sweetheart?”
Alaric nodded.
”In two months, the children will be old enough to travel. The long journey can be comfortable for them,” he replied.
”Oh... that's very good! Let me know the exact dates so I can welcome you in Berlin,” London exclaimed happily. ”I really want to introduce L and Lily to you.”
”Of course.” Aleksis nodded. ”By the way, what did you want to ask when you were contacting Alaric via Virconnect just now?”
London immediately felt bad. His purpose of contacting Alaric was to ask for information regarding L's family murder, but he had unintentionally offended his brother-in-law's feelings. He was too ashamed to trouble him now.
”Does this have something to do with that singer?” Alaric asked, staring intently at London.
Because he had asked about it straightforwardly, London couldn't move in the end. Leaving aside his hesitation, he finally told Alaric and Aleksis everything that had happened then asked for their opinions.
”Hmm... murders that are carried out so openly are usually only done by the mafia or people who deliberately want to spread fear. We used to do it smoothly. Most of our victims were made as if they were in an accident or committed suicide.” Alaric then shrugged, ”A murder of a family of judges so openly, it should be either done by amateurs or they deliberately did it to make a statement. My guess is the mafia.”
”Hmm... I'll find out whether L's father had ever handled cases related to the mafia during when he was alive.” London nodded.
”You can contact Mischa to ask for help with that. She still has a lot of connections in the underworld,” Alaric said. ”He'll be more than happy to help.”
”All right, thank you...” London nodded. ”And... sorry for earlier.”
Alaric just snorted lightly.
The Virconnect connection was then turned off.
In Singapore, Aleksis could only shake her head at her husband's attitude.
”You know, people will make comments like that without us being able to prevent them. It would be better to be more relaxed about our children...” Aleksis commented. ”You can't possibly kill people who offend Ireland and Scotland now, can you?”
”Why can't I?” Alaric replied in a monotone voice.
