Chapter 360: Chapter 333: No Difference Between Boyfriends and Girlfriends (2nd update)

"Little Grace."

Sophia Fox dried her tears and looked at Ella Stephens who entered the room.

Ella stood forward, stared straight at Pierce Stephens, "Family leader, you surely have seen my dad’s contributions to the Stephens Family. If indeed someone from the Stephens Family had taken his life in the chaos, we in Building 10 will never let them off. Since someone dared to attack my dad, they must pay the price. I request your permission, family leader, to bring in a forensic doctor to find their fingerprints."

As long as someone started it, there must be traces left to follow.

Pierce’s gaze turned cold as he stared at Ella.

Ella’s words clearly stated that Adam Stephens and their side had conspired against Kenneth Stephens behind the scenes.

Though this was quite possible, the fact that Ella said it out loud clearly told everyone in the Stephens Family that those against Kenneth were directly linked to Adam.

"Who in the Stephens Family are you suspecting?"

The pressure exerted by Pierce forced Ella to keep her head low.

Ella had some difficulty breathing, in front of Pierce, she was just a weakling.

Being oppressed by dominant forces wasn’t surprising.

"There had been conflict with us in Building 10 recently, everyone must have noticed. Since it is just a suspicion, we need the forensic doctor to confirm it."

Even with her head low, Ella was still insisting.

"Little Grace is right, Pierce... it’s a must to get things clear. If outsiders targeted our family members, we certainly can’t let them go."

Carl Stephens suppressed the rising Qi in his body, and spoke weakly.

Pierce spoke calmly, "I will further discuss this matter, first we need to deal with Kenneth’s funeral."

"Can’t bury him. Nobody is allowed to touch my dad before the evidence is out."

The voice of Ella suddenly quieted down.

Pierce raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a stern gaze.

Then he turned to Carl, "After you all left, the Fisher Family left as well, right?"

Carl’s face turned.

The Fisher Family abandoned the Stephens halfway through, this thorny issue pierced deeply into Carl’s heart, making him uncomfortable.

Ella and Filbert Fisher’s engagement was still being maintained, but the Fishers had left them alone in the face of unfavorable circumstances.

Cowards!

Carl was extremely angry with the actions of the Fisher Family.

But in front of Pierce, he dared not show it.

"It’s not the Fisher Family. They followed us from the start."

Pierce looked at Carl with narrowed eyes, "Your secret dealings with the Fisher Family led you to Mountain County, where only your group ran into trouble. The Fisher Family are the prime suspects."

"It couldn’t be the Fisher Family," Ella refuted with a clear voice.

Everyone turned to look at her.

Her dad had died, yet she was still defending her fiancé!

River East Village.

Foster Mansion.

Fred Foster was quite uneasy in the presence of a lady like Charlotte Richardson.

Adam Stephens had just received a call and he looked back into the room.

"I know, I will take Alex with me to handle it."

Yvette Foster was standing aside, introducing David Foster’s family.

Lindsay Foster and Hans Foster were both very uncomfortable.

Especially under the gaze of Charlotte, they didn’t know where to put their hands and feet.

Not only was Charlotte a wealthy lady, but she was also an ancient martial artist. The passage of time added an invisible authoritative force to her.

Due to her sternness, as she rarely smiled.

"Mr. Foster, thank you for looking after Chloe these past two years."

"It was my duty. Besides, I didn’t care for her as well as I should have, I am truly sorry."

"Being able to do this much is already commendable."

Robot 003 was standing aside, scanning Charlotte from time to time.

So that he would not mistake her for the enemy the next time they meet.

"Mr. Foster, where did you buy this robot from?" Charlotte reached out and touched the 003 robot. As soon as she touched it, she knew that the material was of high quality. Such a robot, even with a high price, might not be available.

"It was salvaged by Chloe from a garbage dump and surprisingly, it still works."

"..."

Again, it was Chloe.

Charlotte looked over at Chloe.

Chloe was talking to Hans about recent cultivation issues.

Hans had been practising what Chloe had taught, and he found his body much lighter than before.

Chloe casually took his pulse and told him, "The situation is very promising, keep it up."

Hans Foster: "..."

There’s a difference between a normal person who exercises daily and one who doesn’t, right?

The techniques she taught, indeed resemble some kind of martial arts so that’s why they’re useful.

*

"Alex."

"Father."

Adam Stephens comes in, Alex moves his gaze away from the Foster siblings and follows his father outside.

Adam says, "Someone in the Stephens family suspects we killed Kenneth Stephens."

"We did kill him."

"Indeed, we did but we can’t openly admit it."

"Father, what does it matter if we admit it? It was he who attacked us first, we only defended ourselves. Between martial artists, it’s either you die or I survive, it’s the rule of the strong. Why doesn’t it apply when it comes to them?"

Adam smiles, "I have been too cautious. Now is the best time to settle some bothersome matters."

"I will stand by your side."

Adam looks at Alex, patting his shoulder encouragingly, "Let’s go back to the Stephens family first."

*

Charlotte Richardson also received news from home.

Her first reaction upon learning about Kenneth’s death was to go see Chloe Stephens.

After a brief silence, she takes a deep breath and says, "I will speak about it with them."

After hanging up the phone, Adam comes over stating that he needs to go back to handle some matters with Alex.

Yvette Foster doesn’t ask, but she can guess what’s going on.

"I’ll go back with you," Charlotte says.

Adam doesn’t object.

"I’ll stay and keep Chloe company; call me if anything happens."

Everyone returning to the Stephens family, if anything happened, there would be no one out here to help which would be very passive.

They just came and left, Fred Foster who was inside comes out, "Have my in-laws left?"

"Something urgent came up at home, they had to leave."

Fred Foster sighs in relief, "Yvette, your mother-in-law seems very capable."

"She indeed is very capable."

"Having such a mother-in-law must make your life in the Stephens family difficult."

"Dad, we don’t live together, so there’s really no issue."

"Do you not live together?" Fred Foster asks, "Isn’t everyone supposed to live under the same roof in a large family?"

"After each family member of the Stephens establishes their own family, they build their own homes, it’s different," Yvette replies.

Fred seems to semi-understand.

*

Charlotte took the same car with Adam and the others.

The atmosphere in the car was somewhat quiet on the way.

"I just saw the captain of the Slaughter Squad; his relationship with Chloe seems to have gotten better."

Adam frowns.

Hadn’t that kid promised to stay away from Chloe?

Why is he sticking to her again?

Could it be a coincidence?

"The way he looks at Chloe, they are no different from a dating couple."

Alex sits quietly on the side, not getting involved.

However, when he hears Charlotte’s last words, he can’t help but be surprised.

Chloe and that evilly handsome man together?

Are they really okay?

Adam’s frown deepens, "It could be a coincidence."

"The way they talk to each other, it doesn’t seem like a coincidence."

Adam remembers that after dealing with Kenneth, Chloe had left alone for a while. So, did she deliberately leave to meet Len Hawthorne?

Adam couldn’t help but feel both amused and exasperated.

He could guard against outsiders, but he couldn’t stop his own daughter.

Dating?

Even if Len Hawthorne was a few years older, he could be Chloe’s father.

Actually, it was just a matter of a few years, but Adam didn’t want his daughter to get close to such a dangerous person.

Adding his rumoured star of calamity nature, Adam was even more worried about Chloe having contact with Len Hawthorne.
