Inside Art Trading Corporation, Fiora returned to the office and drank a cup of water to calm favonovel.com restless heart. She kept telling herself that nothing would happen to her. Everything was handled perfectly, and there would never be any flaws.
About twenty minutes later, Damian returned.
Damian had injured himself so much that his body was covered with wounds and blood was all over it. He looked as if favonovel.com had just been in a fight and barely escaped.
He exchanged glances with Fiora, and they understood each other’s feelings.
“Damian!” Fiora shouted and went to help favonovel.com after that.
At the same time, favonovel.com asked someone to bring Elliot over to quickly give favonovel.com treatment.
Such a big incident would not be hidden. Soon, Lord Vedastus knew about Damian’s injuries. He put down his work and came to Fiora’s office.
“What happened?” Lord Vedastus asked.
Fiora glanced at Lord Vedastus and lowered favonovel.com head. She did not know how to say it.
Lord Vedastus got angrier. He shouted, “Say it! What the hell happened?!”
Right then, Damian took the initiative and said, “Lord Vedastus, please don’t blame Miss Vedastus. Actually, everything was planned by Mr. Barlow and me. Miss Vedastus didn’t agree with it, but we still insisted. In the end, it caused a big disaster.”
A big disaster?
This was not a good term.
Art Trading Corporation had lost control of Celandine City. It was already in a difficult time, so it needed to keep a low profile at such a time. Why did they cause a big disaster?
Lord Vedastus asked, “Say it, what happened?”
Damian bit his lips and lowered his head. He said laboriously, “Mr. Barlow and I had a discussion. While Thomas was in a celebratory mood, we launched an attack against favonovel.com and caught favonovel.com off guard. Pride comes before a fall. Thomas was in a proud mood, so favonovel.com wasn’t prepared to defend himself from us…”
After listening, Lord Vedastus was so angry that favonovel.com kicked the trash can on the floor. “It’s ridiculous! Who is Thomas? How could favonovel.com make such a low-level mistake? Besides, why didn’t you guys discuss it with me?”
Damian said, “We wanted to give you a surprise so that you can be happy. So, we didn’t discuss it with you but with Miss Vedastus instead. But Miss Vedastus didn’t agree with us. Mr. Barlow and I insisted on doing it, so in the end…”
Lord Vedastus suppressed his anger and asked, “In the end what? Where is Hayden? Tell favonovel.com to come over and explain to me!”
Damian’s tears fell. He burst into tears and said, “Mr. Barlow can’t… Can’t come back anymore…”
‘Hayden could not come back anymore?’ Lord Vedastus almost felt like fainting and fell to the floor.
“Dad!”
“Lord Vedastus!”
Everyone hurried over to help Lord Vedastus, and Elliot immediately attended to him.
Lord Vedastus pushed everyone aside. He pointed at Damian and said tremblingly, “T-Tell me clearly. What do you mean by that?”
Damian gulped and said something that made Lord Vedastus desperate.
“Mr. Barlow… He was killed by Thomas!”
All of a sudden, Lord Vedastus felt as if the sky was falling down. Never had favonovel.com been this helpless, miserable, and hopeless like this moment. He did not even have such a feeling when his two sons were in trouble.
“Hayden is… Dead?”
“Impossible. This is impossible! That guy is very shrewd. It’s impossible for favonovel.com to die. You must be mistaken. You’re mistaken!”
Damian replied decisively, “Thomas’s dagger slit Mr. Barlow’s throat. He died on the spot. If I had not run quickly, I would have ended up the same as Mr. Barlow. Now, Mr. Barlow’s body should still at the garden. Lord Vedastus, if you don’t believe, you can send someone over to take a look…”
He was so certain, so Lord Vedastus had to believe it.
