Chapter 686 - Safulli Group (1/2)
”So, you're saying I'm the problem?” Theo shook his head helplessly. ”I still need to know the situation first.”
”Not really. They indeed wanted to kill me from the start and your appearance became the catalyst.” Lorenzo shrugged.
”I see. For now, I want to hear the story from the start. If I don't know anything about this, I will remain silent.” Theo sighed and thought for a moment. ”By the way, is it alright if I ask Agata to hear this too? I'm kind of training her in this area, so… yeah.”
”It's fine. Felice knows about it too, so it's okay for your assistant to learn this matter. There are already a few people who have noticed the problem, including my father after all.”
”Then, why don't your father act?”
”He can't afford to make a move due to the backing. According to him, I need to handle this problem myself as training to be a family head. After all, I can't afford to ask for his help all the time when I succeed him.
”Also, he has made sure to cut the connection between this mastermind and their backer. In other words, he wants to train me by dealing with the mastermind.
”To be honest, he has gotten involved enough and it's my mistake that I'm in this situation. Although I don't want to involve others, I am afraid you have already become a part of this, so yeah… I would like to request your assistance.”
”Okay. I got the gist of it.” Theo nodded. ”Just cutting the connection between them alone is enough help from your father. You can imagine this support as the help you can get after using the War God Family when you rule over it.
”The rest will be up to you… And this should be the reason why the War God Family can produce talented people.”
”Yeah. I don't want to disappoint him.”
”Well…” Theo fell silent for a moment and Agata suddenly entered the tent even though no one called her.
It was Ava who asked her to go to Theo, so the others wouldn't feel suspicious.
”Okay. Please explain from the start.” Theo nodded to Lorenzo.
”Mhmm… Let… me… explain…” Suddenly, Felice's voice echoed inside the tent. It was so weak as they noticed she had just woken up.
”Ah, we're too loud, it seems.”
”Felice!” Lorenzo hurriedly grabbed her hand and checked her body. ”Are you alright? Do you need anything? I will bring it to you immediately.”
”Idiot Master…” Felice smiled and weakly raised her hand, putting it on Lorenzo's cheek. ”I'm fine.”
”I'm glad.” Lorenzo felt relieved.
”I should… explain…”
”No. You should have a rest. We will go somewhere else to talk about this.” Lorenzo shook his head, denying her request.
”If I… can't… Let… me listen.” Felice begged him with her eyes.
Even Lorenzo ended up gritting his teeth as his heart melted. He sighed, ”I understand.”
