Chapter 483 - Joker (2/2)
Valerie, who was sitting at the passenger's seat, looked at Vincent immediately when she heard Tyler's words.
Vincent jumped up in his seat as he was afraid that Valerie would misunderstand him, ”Not me! I swear I am not part of Joker!”
”Who?” Mo Xi asked.
”Xu Zi Fang. Xie Xiu Ling's husband.”
Everyone was stunned by the revelation and Vincent's hands slipped from the steering wheel this time around.
Valerie smacked him immediately, ”Do you want all of us to die?”
”Sorry!” Vincent said hurriedly as he regained his control on the steering wheel.
”Zi Fang was involved in the accident about ten years ago, but Donovan doesn't even know about Poker at that time. How could Zi Fang be selected by Donovan?”
”Zi Fang is the very first Joker. He was selected by Donovan's mother. In actual fact, the person who truly started Joker was Donovan's mother. Donovan's mother secretly got Zi Fang to become Joker without letting anyone else knowing about it. However, unlike Donovan, Donovan's mother wasn't able to keep her mind free of greed at the end. Donovan's mother ended up committing a lot of evil deeds and Zi Fang wasn't free from her hands either. Zi Fang wasn't part of Poker like the others, so he wasn't afraid of being captured as long as Donovan's mother doesn't tell others about his existence. However, he still knew everything about Poker and had a lot of information about them. Because of this, when Donovan's mother wanted too much, she was afraid that Zi Fang would tell others about her and Poker, and so she got people to kill Zi Fang. Zi Fang managed to escape from everything and started to have a peaceful and normal life. Years later, he met his wife and then they got married. He thought that he could finally have a peaceful life. However, he couldn't, and he was met with an accident that turned him vegetative.”
Tyler then continued, ”One of the reasons why Zi Fang turned vegetative was that Zhou Dong found out that Zi Fang had betrayed Poker and helped many people escaped in secret. Some day after Donovan's mother passed away, Zhou Dong found things that she had hidden from everyone while he was going through Donovan's parents' things. He also found leads and things that Zi Fang had done in secret. Zhou Dong was furious that an outsider knows so much about Poker, and he was afraid of the consequences, so he got people to hunt him down and eventually, he found Zi Fang. Zhou Dong then sent people to knock him down, but that accident didn't kill Zi Fang like Zhou Dong wanted. When Zhou Dong heard that Zi Fang didn't die in the accident, he tried multiple times to make him die. However, none of it worked because Zi Fang had people like mine, that made sure to not let such things happen. Donovan's mother doesn't know about Zi Fang's men and so there was nothing that could lead to Zhou Dong finding out about them. Hence, Zi Fang's men were able to continue keeping him alive though they were not able to do something about his vegetative state.”
