1259 1259: Eddie, El, Jiali
“Isn’t that obvious?! In the Centrals, the AO2 is the only one who dares go against the Hess family!”
When they spoke about AO2, those from the Hess family looked as if they had been poisoned and were looking nauseous.
AO2 had somehow become something disgusting to them.
“I will deal with this personally. If Ah Chuan is indeed the son of Jiamo, I will definitely invite him home personally.”
The elders agreed with the decision as well.
“Plus, if Ah Chuan is indeed the child of the Hess family, and if I find out who is the one who has been trying to kill him, I will give them a taste of their medicine.
“All of you should be aware that the only reason why the Hess family was able to grow to where we are today is because of Unity. For those of you here, all of the projects that you’re working on would have brought you unlimited fortunes, but when you aren’t making money, you wouldn’t have suffered much as well. This is because of the protection and tolerance that the Hess family has for their own kind.
“As you know, Jiamo is my little sister. If she didn’t give up on her position, she would be leading the family now, and Ah Chuan will be the next heir in line. Back then, Jiamo disappeared suddenly when our father passed away. The entire Hess family was in a chaotic state, and when I found Jiamo, she was already dead.
“I made an oath that if I find the person who did this, I will make them suffer. Plus, I will never be able to forgive anyone who is related to Jiamo’s death. This includes all of you sitting here today.”
As he was speaking, Eddie glanced at Jiali more than once.
Jiali looked calm the entire time, but due to how calm she was, it made her look suspicious.
The other elders looked worried and frightened. Even if it wasn’t their doing, they still wanted to return home quickly and ask if anyone from their family members was involved in the murder of Jiamo.
Those who were not a part of it or would not have had a chance to be part of it looked pissed. They hoped to find the enemy as soon as possible, but Jiali was the only one with an indifferent look on her face.
When the meeting was over, Eddie got Jiali to stay back.
The siblings stood by the huge window of the castle and looked at the crowd underneath them.
Then, Eddie asked, “You were the one who killed Jiamo. Am I right?”
“No.” Jiali gave a firm reply.
“I saw the conversation between Hawkins and Di Jinqian. I have the same assumption as her that you are the one who killed her. You even tried to kill her son, so you planned the accident that involved Zhan Lichuan.
Jiali gave a cold smile and asked, “Do you have any evidence?”
“If I do, I would have killed you as revenge for Jiamo. Well, you better hope that I will never find evidence of what you have done.”
“Big brother, other than me and Jiamo, who’s now dead, you seem to have forgotten about El.”
“El is the closest to Jiamo. He is the one who loved her the most. When Jiamo died, the light in his eyes disappeared. You think that it would be possible that it was him?”
Jiali shrugged her shoulders and said, “Who knows? Those that seem impossible may likely be the ones who did it.”
“What are you two talking about?”
While Eddie and Jiali were talking, El Hess’s voice appeared out of nowhere.
Amongst the siblings, El and Jiamo had the most beautiful appearances.
El was 186cm tall, and he had a lean body that was paired with a handsome face. All these years, he was not married and did not have a family of his own. This was why he looked much younger than his elder brother, Eddie, and younger sister, Jiali.
