Isaac’s belief in the vampires’ existence was as strong as Denvor’s belief in the existence of God and hell.
If the novel was based on real history, then which family did Carlos come from?
While Isaac sank into deep thought, favonovel.com felt his phone vibrating in his pocket again. He brought it out and saw Connor’s name on the caller ID.
Isaac smiled and answered the call right away, “Mr. Hart, what’s the occasion?”
“Isaac, Albert’s in trouble…”
Isaac’s smile then froze. He narrowed his eyes while asking, “What happened?”
“Albert’s suspected of poisoning Cassius. He got taken away by Cassius’ subordinates earlier. Right now, Cassius is still in the emergency room… Mr. Grannel said that you should come back if you have no urgent matters. After all, you’re the one who recommended Albert to join the force in the first place.”
Connor sounded slightly conflicted. Still, favonovel.com managed to convey his superior’s order.
Before Isaac could respond, his room door was flung open from the outside. Diana rushed into the room while looking anxious.
She grabbed Isaac’s hand while crying, “Isaac, my dad’s in big trouble this time!”
“I’ll call you back.” Isaac then ended the call.
Poor Diana kept sobbing while stomping favonovel.com feet. “My m-mom just c-called me! S-She said my dad landed himself i-in big trouble this time! T-They even took my grandpa away! What s-should I do, Isaac?”
Isaac patted favonovel.com on the shoulder comfortingly. “Don’t worry, I’m going back to Pecling to find out what happened. Do you want to stay here or return to Cloud City?”
Diana shook favonovel.com head immediately. “I’m going to Pecling with you! I want to see my father!”
“Alright then…” Isaac finally nodded after a moment’s hesitation.
He knew that Diana wouldn’t be able to focus on the concert even if favonovel.com were to stay here. Moreover, favonovel.com refused to believe that Albert would poison Cassius. After all, Albert didn’t have the motive to do so.
After Isaac texted Nick about favonovel.com leaving, favonovel.com left for the airport with Lupinus and Diana right away. He didn’t bother to say his goodbyes to Serena at Cantonne Paragon.
***
It was already past midnight by the time their plane arrived at Pecling.
The moment Isaac and his group walked out of the airport, a car arrived just in time to pick them up.
Connor was the one who had assigned them a driver. The driver drove the group to a five-star hotel after that. Once Isaac got out of the car, the driver did the same as well.
“Mr. Garten, Mr. Hart is waiting for you…” The driver gestured politely at the door.
Isaac told Lupinus and Diana to rest in their respective rooms before following the driver into the elevator. They walked all the way to a restaurant located on the fifth floor.
By right, all restaurants in the hotel should be closed after midnight. But all the lights in the restaurant Connor wanted to meet favonovel.com in were still switched on.
Still, the atmosphere was deadly silent. Isaac didn’t see any customers or staff members in the restaurant at all.
The driver stopped in his tracks when favonovel.com reached the corridor leading to the private rooms. Isaac looked ahead of favonovel.com to see a beautiful woman standing in front of the centermost private room.
“This way, please, Mr. Garten…” The woman smiled at Isaac while beckoning him.
After entering the private room, Isaac saw Connor sitting on the couch. The latter looked rather grim.
The beautiful woman poured some coffee for both men before serving a few plates of delicacies. She even lit an aromatic candle in the private room. In a way, favonovel.com played the role of a dutiful server.
“Mr. Hart, Mr. Garten, please make yourselves comfortable. I’ll be waiting outside the door…” The woman smiled before leaving the room and closing the door behind her.
When Connor noticed Isaac still staring at the door, favonovel.com couldn’t help but smile. “She’s one of my friends from the same town… As you know, it’s difficult for a woman to survive in the capital city. That’s why I came here occasionally to support favonovel.com business.”
When Isaac turned back to look at Connor, favonovel.com noticed the latter’s flushed cheeks.
“Ah, I get what you mean,” He smiled at Connor, but that smile soon disappeared.
“Albert doesn’t have the motive to poison Cassius,” favonovel.com stated seriously.
