Chapter 1571


    “That’s absolutely the right thing to do. After all, you do like children very much,” said Anne, ncing in


    the direction of the study.


    The person who was there earlier had just left. He probably wanted to see what kind of topic they were


    talking about that was unfavorable to the atmosphere.


    Anne, however, was a trained assassin, so, of course, she was sharp enough to notice it.


    Anne reached for the fruits on the fruit tter, and when she handed it to Ashlynn, she deliberately said


    softly, “Did you find anything else?”


    “I took advantage of the time Corentin was in the shower at night to check his phone, but I didn’t find


    anything at all. However, both Paul and Owen really exist. I can recognize them even if they have been


    turned to ashes,” said Ashlynn.


    “If Corentin realized he had been exposed, you won’t find anything in his phone. He would’ve long


    gotten rid of everything,” said Anne, “you have to be careful of Corentin at all turns. After all, you have a


    child in your belly.”


    Ashlynn lowered her head, nced at her t lower abdomen, and said, “It’s fine. Corentin really wants


    this child very badly. I’ll be fine. It’s just that…what kind of rtionship do you think Corentin has with


    the toxins?”


    “I need to look into it,” said Anne, “I’ll go to my grandpa’ster to see if there are any clues there.”


    “Be careful.”


    “Don’t worry.”


    Anne did not stay for lunch. She said she was going to have lunch with Elder Lloyd, and Corentin did


    not make anyments.


    Anne went to the Lloyd family’s chateau. Elder Lloyd was very surprised by Anne’s arrival. He hardly


    had time to bond with his granddaughter, so he was in a rather good mood.


    Also, Ashlynn’s pregnancy, in particr, made him very much look forward to the future development of


    the Lloyd family.


    After lunch, they sat down in the room for tea.

    Elder Lloyd asked, “You’re not here just because you want to see me, the old man, right?”


    “You knew about Anthony and Iing over here a while earlier to investigate the source of the toxins,


    right?” asked Anne.


    “I’ve heard it from Corentin.”


    “We found out it has something to do with him. I initially wanted to ask him directly, but I’m afraid he’s


    not going to be happy about it, so I can onlye and ask if you know any inside scoop. I believe my


    uncle won’t do anything bad. I’m just afraid he would be used by Tommy. Tommy is Anthony’s cousin.


    He is also the founder of an assassin group. He’s ruthless, It’s bad if Uncle is used by him. Ashlynn’s


    pregnant now. She certainly will be frightened.” Anne told him about what was at stake.


    Elder Lloyd’s eyebrows were tightly knitted. “Is there such a thing?”


    “Yes. I’m very worried about my uncle. It would be fine if it has nothing to do with him.”


    “I’ll ask himter.”


    Anne left after spending more than an hour over there.


    She got into the car, and after the car left the Lloyd family’s chateau, she took out her earphones and


    stuffed them into her ears. She then clicked on the monitoring application on her phone, then the sound


    of Elder Lloyd calling Corentin could be heard…


    “What’s the matter with you? What have you done behind my back? Why would Annee to tell me


    that you have something to do with that virus? Corentin, you wouldn’t have done some heinous acts


    behind my back, would you? Listen to me. Our family is founded on underworld dealings, but there are


    some things that you just can’t be involved in! That better be the case. Otherwise, even I can’t keep


    you safe when the timees! Where’s your associate that has been found out? What? Died?”


    Anne could only hear Elder Lloyd’s words, but she could deduce from the content how Corentin shifted


    the me.


    Only Owen was shot at that time, so how could both of them be dead?


    Corentin must have ced all the me on Paul and Owen while making sure his hands were clean.


    Indeed, that made reasonable sense and was justifiable. After all, those were his associates in the


    past. Also, the bar was opened by his associates. There was no need for his associates to report to


    him about everything they were going to do at every turn.


    The only thing that Anne could be certain of at that time was that Elder Lloyd truly had no clue.
