Chapter 935 - Is Sophia Involved? (1/2)

Alaric was speechless at Mischa's words. His hands were clenched, and his c.h.e.s.t felt tight with anger. He couldn't blame Mischa for choosing to go to Provins to save Lisa. He understood how it felt like to be a man in love. Lisa, after all, had been Mischa's girlfriend for many years.

If he received any threats on Aleksis' life, Alaric would leave everything to save his wife.

He patted Mischa's shoulder. The man looked so sad, so Alaric spoke to him in a soft voice. He now sounded exactly like Alaric Rhionen, who coaxed little Mischa 35 years ago to stop crying when his parents were lying dead, and he asked the boy to come with him.

”Mischa ... you are innocent. Don't blame yourself for what happened to Vega. I will catch the culprit and avenge Lisa's death. No one can touch my family and escape punishment. I will go after them, even to the ends of the earth. ... ”

Alaric looked at Mischa with sharp eyes. His foster son stared back at Alaric and both seemed to make a silent promise to avenge Vega's abduction and Lisa's murder together.

Lauriel looked away while taking a deep breath. He was despondent and depressed. During his life for almost six centuries on this earth, only twice did he experience situations that were this heartbreaking.

Based on his knowledge, the longer they could find Vega, the less likely they will find her alive. He could not imagine how heartbroken his family would be, especially his children, if Vega ended up dying at the hands of her kidnappers.

He had also asked for help from all members of the Wolf Pack, and they were all ready wherever they were to wait for orders from him. If Lauriel got word that Vega was brought to Asia, Peach and Endo would search the entire continent to find her tracks.

He had Neo in Australia. They could also count on former Rhionen Assassins members who were still spread all over the world. All were awaiting orders.

”Alaric ... you have to see this!” Suddenly Nicolae went inside and showed the tablet in his hand. Lauriel and Alaric looked up and stared at him attentively.

”What is wrong?” Alaric asked. He stood up to approach Nicolae and looked at the tablet in his brother's hand. Instantly, his expression turned very murky. His hands were clenched into fists so hard that his knuckles turned white. ”Who is it?”

Lauriel got up and looked at the contents on Nicolae's tablet. His face also turned murky. His blue-green eyes flashed with anger.

”I recognize that person ...” he hissed.

In Darknet, there was a very interesting post that attracted many people's attention. There was a photo of a teenage girl passed out on the floor and an old man in his 60's who was tied to a chair beside her. The teenage girl was clearly Vega. Then ... who was the old man who was held captive with her?

The text in the photo was short:

'If you don't want Vega to experience what happened to Alexei, stop searching.'

Alaric turned to his father. ”Do you know him? Is he really Alexei?”

Lauriel studied the old man in the photo and took a deep breath. He still remembered Alexei's face, Luna's nephew, who was given the death sentence 35 years ago and got his memory taken away. After more than three decades, Alexei had turned old and wrinkled, but Lauriel could still recognize him.

He nodded slowly. ”That's right, that's Alexei. Caspar still sent people to check on him in Switzerland every now and then. Every year we saw his face grow older. This is indeed him.”

”That means that whoever kidnapped Vega must know what happened to Alexei! Do you think they have a grudge against him? Do they have a relationship with the Meier family?” Alaric asked again.

He had told Pavel to track Sophia's whereabouts. He was worried that his cousin had something to do with Vega's kidnapping because she wanted to take revenge on him. He was still waiting to hear from Pavel.

Eleven years ago, Alaric punished Sophia by kicking her out of the family castle in Yorkshire. He didn't return the Meier family's business to her for her evil deeds. Now Sophia had fallen into poverty and gone off the grid.

Sophia had long held a grudge against the Schneiders and Lauriel's family. She always assumed Lauriel was responsible for making her lose her only brother, Alexei.
