It Was You

Chapter 880 No Room For Retreat

"Dad, do you want me to be trapped in the same whirlpool all my life and bear this debt forever? Do you want me to be afraid of death and live on?" There was a hint of irresistible bitterness in Arthur's voice.

In the past 24 years, he had never forgotten his sister's death. He had been searching for so many years, but only one bit of the truth was so shocking. What was the hidden truth under the calm water?

Gabe's lips moved, but he couldn't say anything to refute. Or, in his heart, he had been hoping that one day, he would be able to reveal all the truth.

All of a sudden, Martin said, "I will investigate thoroughly the Lu Clan. No matter who hurt my parents that year, I won't let him go." Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Gabe kept silent for a while and sighed helplessly, "I knew it would come sooner or later. In that case, you can go to see someone and see if you can get some information about the past."

"Who?" Martin asked.

Gabe said in a low voice, "He is a professor of law at Capital University and the honorary vice president, Hugh Hu."

"Professor Hu? Is he also involved in this matter? " Before Martin opened his mouth, Arthur spoke first.

Hugh Hu was famous all over the world, as a great figure in the legal field. In the past few years, he was even more famous in the academic field. He was granted the Honorary Vice Dean by Capital University, and he was the first professor to obtain this honor since the establishment of Capital University.

Gabe shook his head and said, "I don't know if he was involved or not. But when I was collecting Martin's father's belongings, I saw a plan from Professor Hu. Martin's father seemed to pay great

attention to him and arranged a meeting with him. Unfortunately, he died before he met the professor. In the past few years, I have been paying attention toProfessor Hu. He has been studying the criminal psychology. What happened in the past was a secret, and there was nothing unusual about him, so I didn't disturb him. He probably didn't know that I knew about Martin's father. "

Martin frowned and said, "I know what you mean."

Gabe took a deep breath. He finally spoke out what had happened for so many years, and it seemed that he was finally relieved. Sometimes he had to bear too much, but he couldn't speak it out. Now that he finally spoke it out, he was no longer alone.

He didn't know whether it was a good idea or not to disclose the whole truth, because he didn't know how it would end.

Then, Martin and the others didn't say anything more about this. They just talked about something irrelevant, and then went back to the hotel. Arthur stayed to continue to follow up the investigation, and Lenny was worried, so he stayed with him.

Because all the staff worked overtime temporarily, Lenny considerately asked the hotel to send some night snacks here. This hotel was usually very cold, they seldom agreed to provide this kind of service. It was really thanks to Lenny that they could be treated differently.

However, the explosion was like a cloud hovering above everyone's head. Even if they ate the expensive midnight snack in the hotel, they were not in the mood to enjoy it carefully.

The investigation was still underway, and Martin began to open a branch road on the main road. No one had expected that this inadvertent branch road would be the fastest way to the truth.

In the suite of the hotel.

After a busy night, Martin didn't look tired at all. Every time he encountered something difficult, he would be extremely excited, which showed that Martin had a strong potential for crime.

He was like a man who had been stepping on the steel wire by the river. If he was not careful enough, he would fall off the steel wire, wet his shoes, and even throw himself into it.

After taking a shower, Cassandra came out and saw Martin standing in front of the huge French window. His back looked somewhat desolate and arrogant.

In her previous life, she had always wanted to escape from this man. She had never known that he had always been alone and helpless inside. Even if she had tried her best to find him, she did not know what kind of abyss that this unknown path would lead to.

Cassandra walked towards Martin. Hearing the footsteps behind him, the man slightly turned his head and looked at the woman. Sometimes, he even felt that everything in front of him was illusory, because it was so beautiful that he felt unreal.

Cassandra wrapped her arms around Martin's waist from behind. Her hair, which had just been washed, was still wet. The water drops flew down and swam into the man's clothes.

"What are you thinking about?" Cassandra asked in a hoarse voice.

Martin's back froze for a long time before he calmed down. He gently covered the back of the girl's hand with his slender fingers and lowered his eyes. "Before we got married, I had been investigating the cause of my parents' death. Now, more and more people were involved, and more and more people were hidden behind. Now that we have come to this point, I have no room for retreat, but I'm a little afraid now."

At the end of his words, there was an unprecedented loss in his usual cold eyes.

If there was only him, he would never care about life or death. But now, if he died, what about Cassandra alone?

How could she live her long life?

At that moment, Cassandra suddenly understood why Martin had sent people to follow her secretly from the very beginning to ensure her safety, and even specially trained a small team of men.

It turned out that he had been afraid of her danger from the very beginning, but in her previous life, she had regarded him as a dreadful monster and hated him to the extreme.

"Don't worry about me. I have the ability to protect myself. Besides, you have come to this point. If you stop for me, you will regret for the rest of your life. Moreover, if we don't find out who is behind it, we will be in danger and become the prey of others." Cassandra whispered.

Martin's pupils shrank slightly. What Cassandra said was right. The person behind the scenes had been hidden in the darkness, and no one knew when he would make another move. He was like an eagle lurking in the darkness, waiting for the opportunity to make a move. Now he was in the light, but the enemy was in the dark. After so many years of investigation, it seemed that it was time to alert the "snake".

If it weren't for Cassandra, everything would have happened as he expected. But now, he had to take care of Cassandra's safety.

Bonnie's death was a warning.
