Chapter 831 - Tricking The Bad Guys (2/2)
Mischa smiled at London's words. ”Don't worry about it. We're family.”
Ah, indeed. They really are family now, thought London when he hung up the phone. Ten years ago, his family would never have thought of having close relations with people from the underworld, let alone to make them family.
”Jan, make sure Marc and Dave keep a close eye on my wife and child, okay. I don't want any unwanted surprises,” London said, turning to his assistant. The man nodded and swiftly contacted London Schneider's chief of security and coordinated with Marc.
Meanwhile, London decided to contact L at home. His wife was practicing her singing, because she would appear as a special guest at the gala dinner this evening to welcome the conference participants.
”Hey, what are you doing?” asked London in an intimate voice over the phone.
”I am practicing my singing. What are you doing?” L replied.
”I'm preparing a lot of things. I can't wait to see you at the gala dinner tonight,” London answered. ”You must not go anywhere without Marc's permission, okay? I need you to stay at home and only go to the gala dinner tonight with Marc or Dave together with their team.”
”Of course, I'm not stupid,” L. said. ”I'll take good care of myself.”
”I am glad to hear that.” London smiled to herself. ”I love you, L.”
”Hmm .. I love you too.”
After hanging up, London took a deep breath. Tonight, everything would end. He would avenge L and make the people responsible for her sufferings got what they deserved.
He had promised forgiveness to the assassin group through Mischa as long as they are willing to help him to trap John Wendell. And now they would also trap Danny Swann. The man deserved to be punished because he had the heart to kill L and Lily just for money.
If he couldn't hold back his rage, none of those people would be left alive.
However, London knew killing bad people would not bring back L's family who had passed away, and instead would make his hands dirty because their blood would be on his hands. Therefore, he was forced to back down and let the police handle their crimes.
With a flat, emotionless face, London came to a five-star restaurant where he entertained several important doctors from the conference, including John Wendell and his daughter, Caroline. He still had to be nice to them and make them let their guard down.
The gala dinner tonight was a really important event and everything would be revealed. He must be patient.
”Ah ... thank you, Sir, for having us. This is a very pleasant lunch. We learned more about the various Schneider Group pharmaceutical divisions,” said John Wendell in a friendly manner.
”We started opening a pharmaceutical division after Schneider Group began collaborating with RMI on various important projects. As you know, RMI has a strong pharmaceutical division because its subsidiary invented cancer drugs,” London said with a smile. ”The RMI leader is my brother-in-law. Maybe you have heard about him?”
”Gosh ... I didn't know that the gossip is true ...” Caroline pressed her lips with shock. ”I did hear that the Schneider family's eldest daughter is married to Elios Linden of RMI. But I thought it was just gossip ...”
”My sister Aleksis Schneider is indeed married to Elios Linden,” answered London. He was pleased to see Caroline and her father's reaction. They seemed really excited about wanting to be part of the Schneider family, considering this family's impressive connection.
”Whoaa.. Your family is quite imposing,” Caroline said, looking in awe.
”Ah, Caroline ... how many times have I told you. You don't need to call me 'Sir'. Please just call me by my first name,” said London, smiling.
The girl looked down with rosy cheeks.
”Ah ... that's right. Alright, Mis... eh, London ...” she said softly.
John Wendell looked at the interaction between London and his daughter with a satisfied face. He truly believed that the Schneider family heir was really into his daughter.
Ha. What a perfect husband for my daughter, he thought, smiling faintly.
