    Chapter 843


    “Uncle Conall?! How can you yell at me like that?!” Annie stared at Conall in disbelief. “You’ve never


    raised your voice at me like this.”


    “She’s my daughter. Do you ever think about how I feel when you badmouth her in front of me?” Conall


    red at Annie furiously.


    Annie began to well up with tears, “And have you all thought about what I feel? I’ve never done


    anything wrong. Yet Conrad and Fia did that to me…”


    “Annie, shut up!” Finn finally could not bear to see his daughter misbehaving like this


    anymore.


    He knew very well that his daughter had fallen for Conrad and that she had been trying to wreck


    Conrad and Fia’s marriage.


    Had he not uncovered her scheme in time, forced her to resign from Maxwell Corporation, who knew


    what else she had up her sleeve!


    “Dad…”


    “I’ve told you! You are to return to Lumenpolis and stay put!” Finn gave her a stern order before turning


    to Joy. “Dear sister-inw, I’m afraid I’ll have to depend on you to keep an eye on her. She’s still young


    and immature so she is prone to making mistakes.”


    Joy nodded. “Staying in Lumenpolis could be a good thing for Annie. She could also provide.pany


    for Felicity.”


    The meal then ended on a bad note.


    When the Parker brothers walked into the study, Conall impatiently asked, “Be honest with me. What


    happened to Fia?”


    “Something did happen alright… For some reason, Fia was sure that Britney, Barbara’s sister, is


    actually Esme Manning in disguise. She almost pushed her down a bridge and drowned her.”


    Finn furrowed his brows and said, “We’re still investigating this. But the investigation has been going


    poorly because a certain organization has been pulling strings to conceal information and evidence.”


    “Hellish Training Camp,” Conall said in a sullen face. “Only Hellish Training Camp has resources to do


    that.”


    Finn asked in surprise, “Are you telling me that the Thomas family has ties with that camp?”


    “No, that’s not possible.” Conall shook his head and said confidently, “Hellish Training Camp is a secret


    organization. No one truly knows where its headquarters are. They rejected me when I wanted to do


    business with them so the Thomases can’t possibly be worthy enough to use their resources.”


    “Then why are they stopping us from investigating the case?”


    “We need to find out what kind of people Barbara’s sister has been dealing with. Perhaps she had


    gotten in touch with people who have ties with Hellish Training Camp. And not just anyone from the


    camp. It’s someone with a high position there.”


    “There’s a certain someone. He’s a son of the Hall family.”


    Finn revealed the person cautiously to his brother.


    Hearing this, a frown appeared on Conall’s face. “You mean that Hall family from Gryphon City?”


    Finn nodded.


    Conall probed even further, “The son of Mr. Hall who jumped off a building after his went bankrupt?”


    “Yes.” Finn confirmed his brother’s spection with a sullen face. “Brother, do you think this is all…


    connected somehow?”


    Conall said determinedly, “It doesn’t matter if they’re connected. We need to get to the bottom of this!”


    Conall recalled the time when he got hit by a motorcycle. The perpetrator said he was under the


    influence of alcohol so he could not control his bike. When he thought about it, Conall could not help


    but feel that it was not as simple as that.

    “Finn, if we can’t dig out anything about that Hall boy, we’ll interrogate his parents for information!”


    Conall’s eyes turned vicious and cruel. “If they want to hurt Fia, I’ll have their heads!”


    “Conall…! Brother…! This is all just spection. Besides, Barbara’s sister hasn’t harmed Fia. It was Fia


    who identally hurt her. She even dropped her charges against Fia.”


    Finn did not want Barbara toe pestering him about her sisterter. Even though they could not


    reconcile and be lovers again, he was hoping to remain as her friend. He did. not want her as his


    enemy.


    “If Fia suspects her, then surely there must be a reason for it! Fia is a kind and gentle girl. She wouldn’t


    suspect an innocent person for no reason!”


    “Conall, I think it’s because Fia was overly suspicious of everyone around her. Barbara’s sister is a


    mousy person. She doesn’t look or act like Esme Manning at all. Besides, Esme Manning is dead. We


    even retrieved her corpse and identified it to be her. The corpse’s DNA matches hers.” Finn kept on


    trying to persuade his brother to prevent him from doing something he might regretter in Fia’s name.


    Conall looked at Finn grimly. “Then why is Fia suspicious of her and her only out of so many people on


    the?”


    Finn sighed. “It’s all Conrad’s fault. Although he has a bad temper, Conrad is a capable man. And he’s


    extremely handsome too. So it’s not unusual to have many women chasing after him. This has made


    Fia mistrustful of people. Now, everyone looks like a bad person to her.” Conall red at his brother


    furiously. “What bullsh*t are you spouting at me, Finn?!”
