Chapter 1249 Indirectly Caused Their Death
Natalie inhaled sharply, her entire body stiffening.
He found out!
Sean let out a chuckle. “Don’t worry. Since I’ve looked into this case for you, it’s not surprising for me to
find out about Stanley, as his parents were the only ones killed by that faction leader that year. One of his
parents was a doctor of cardiology, while the other was a bioscientist. Those were exactly the talents that
The Dark Organization needed. That faction leader approached them a few times to invite them to join
the organization, but they rejected him.”
“And then he killed them?” Her expression turned solemn.
He did not deny it. “Something like that, but it’s a little moreplicated than that. After being rejected by
them for the fifth time, the faction leader flew into a rage and started sending men to kill them. The
couple found out and went into hiding, but he still managed to find them and killed them in the end.
Speaking of which, their death was indeed rted to your best friend’s family.”
“What?” Natalie stood up in bewilderment.
It was rted to Joyce’s family? How could that be? Joyce said that they didn’t expose the whereabouts
of Stanley’s parents. How could their demise be rted to them?
Taking in the look of disbelief on her face, Sean sipped at his coffee again. “It’s the truth. Stanley’s
parents were good friends with Joyce’s parents for many years. They trusted thetter the most. That
was why they kept in touch with them while in hiding. Stanley’s family was also able to hide for so long
thanks to their help and protection.”
“So Joyce’s family helped Stanley’s family. How could you say his parents’ death was rted to her
family?” Natalie clenched her fists tightly.
Smiling, he replied, “Of course, it was. Even though Joyce’s parents helped Stanley’s parents, the faction
leader must have investigated the Rivers family due to the nature of their rtionship with the Quinn
family. No matter how discreet they were in helping the Quinns, he would surely grow to be suspicious of
the Riverses. When he discovered that the Rivers family would disappear for a few days once in a while,
he suspected it had something to do with the Quinn family right away, so he sent his men to spy on the
Rivers family for some time. That was how he found out where the Quinn family was hiding.”
Natalie gasped, the color draining from her face. “How could this be…”
Joyce’s family didn’t tell the faction leader where Stanley’s parents were, but they revealed it
inadvertently and caused their death indirectly.
While she was feeling unsettled, Sean took a bit of his sandwich and continued, “When the faction leader
discovered the Quinn family’s whereabouts, he killed the couple. By the time Joyce’s parents arrived,
they were already dead. Stanley was hiding in the house at that time, and he witnessed the whole thing.
That was why he thought the Rivers family exposed their location, and he hated them from the day
onward.”
That was what had transpired.
Upon hearing that, Natalie slumped to her seat as she realized things were truly over between Stanley
and Joyce.

Even though Joyce’s family did not let slip the whereabouts of Stanley’s family, they did it unintentionally.
In other words, they indirectly caused his parents’ death.
Natalie initially thought that the Rivers family had nothing to do with Stanley’s parents’ death, but reality
had proven otherwise.
Suddenly feeling exhausted, she massaged her temples. At that moment, she could not bring herself to
say another word.
ncing at her from the corner of his eyes, Sean said, “By the way, that faction leader is no longer in the
organization. He bought a beach overseas and is living in retirement there. This is his picture.”
He took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to her.
Natalie took it over. Lowering her head, she saw a bald old man around the age of sixty.
He was topless, wearing only a pair of colorful beach shorts. In the photo, he was seen lying leisurely on
the sand, closing his eyes, and basking in the sun.
