Chapter 710 - Let Me Take Care Of Lily (1/2)
”Jan, you have to investigate who John Wendell is and why he...” London's voice stopped when he saw Jan's expression. ”What's wrong? Why is your face like that?”
Jan shook his head slowly. ”I just remember reading the name Wendell somewhere. I just checked the reports you asked me to collect. I've already found out who he is.”
”Then?”
”Danny Swann had a childhood friend named Caroline Wendell. Before he found Miss L, this Caroline was his girlfriend.” Jan opened his tablet and showed a picture of Danny with a woman. They both looked very intimate in the photo. ”I can conclude that the Wendell family wants to marry their own daughter to the young master Swann, so they think the only barrier, Miss L, must be removed.”
”What information did you get about this Caroline Wendell?”
”She is also a medical student, two years his junior. It seems that the girl always follows Danny. She always went to the same school as Danny Swann, from middle school, high school, to university. That's why they became close and started a relationship a few years ago. If I'm not mistaken, they planned to get married after Danny graduated as a specialist. The Swann family had their own hospital in London. But it seems their relationship ended a few months ago, when Danny Swann contacted Miss L.”
Mischa shrugged while smiling. ”Well, you've got your answer.”
”Ughhh... those bastards!” London felt furious. He could surmise that wealth was the reason for either the Wendells or the Swanns to kill L and her family. ”I want them to pay for what they did.”
”Unfortunately, Rhionen Assassins has retired. Otherwise, I'll be happy to help you,” Mischa uttered. ”Your sister would kill me if I gave even the slightest hint to Master to revive Rhionen Assassins.”
London could only smile bitterly. He certainly wouldn't use the ways of people of the underworld. With the present situation, expecting the police to investigate this case and bring the mastermind to justice would prove to be quite difficult.
This case was deemed expired and the bad guys were left to deny all the statement from the assassins who had been tortured by Mischa to confess.
At this time, according to him, it would be best for him to handle it himself.
”Jan, try to find out what the Swann family's business is and give me the report tomorrow. We'll destroy their business and make those filthy people unable to touch even a dime of the wealth they've been striving to get. I also want you to investigate further whether Danny is involved or not. I want everything done before the wedding.”
”Yes, Sir.”
They finished their drinks and finally decided to go home.
”Thank you for your help, Mischa. If you have time, I hope you'll come to my wedding next month. We will hold the event in Stuttgart. I believe it's not far from Bucharest,” London said as he escorted Mischa to leave.
The man just nodded.
”Thank you for the invitation. I'll try to come. By the way, On October 3, Master and Madam will also celebrate their wedding anniversary in Targu Mures. Your wedding date is quite close to theirs,” he commented.
”Ah, that's right. No wonder my sister said they're going to Europe this week. Their wedding anniversary is next week.” London then remembered about Aldebar's gift to his brother-in-law, the four immortality potions for his foster children. He wanted to know if Mischa already knew that. ”Did you know that Alaric received some special gifts from Uncle Aldebar?”
Mischa nodded and smiled. ”I did. I am very grateful. Master gave us time to think carefully, and we'll all meet to make the decision next week.”
”Ah, all right. I hope you guys are willing to join our clan. I'm happy to have more family members,” London said. Of course. If Alaric's four foster children received the immortality potion, the number of clan members would increase. At present, they were very few in number because members who were married to outsiders weren't many, and they also didn't like having children.
