Chapter 61
"What''s wrong?" The father and son''s faces changed.
"There was a team of construction workers who parked a truck right outside our residence, but the
vehicle was left behind without anyone spotted in sight. Then, we found Jerrick, the manager of
Mount Rochwick''s tourism department, to be bloodied and insane."
"What?!"
Felix sprang up from his chair and said, "Let''s check out what’s going on!"
When they got to the Jacob Residence''s main entrance, they were greeted by the sight of a huge
truck that was parked just in front of the main gate. In the meantime, Jerrick was seen sitting in the
corner, curling up while hugging his knees. After all, he had been sharing the same space with
William''s dead body in the dark container, which was believed to have rendered him insane and
mad. As soon as Felix and Trevis walked out the door, they asked, "What happened?"
With a pair of soulless eyes on his face, Jerrick pointed at the container with his shivering finger. "M-
Mr. Jacob..." Upon hearing Jerrick''s words, Felix stepped forward to open the container''s lid. After a
creaking sound from the door, Felix staggered backward like he had been hit with several bullets,
his face turning pale in that instant. When everyone else sensed the man''s reaction, they all
instantly knew something was wrong. Thus, they all peeked at the container''s interior to see what
was going on, only to find William''s mutted and amputated corpse lying in a pool of blood. At the
same time, the truck''s container was filled with an unpleasant and sickening smell that could make
anyone''s hair stand on end.
While some of the witnesses were so disgusted that they immediately puked there and then, Felix
grieved and shouted at the top of his lungs, "William!" After all, William was his favorite and
youngest son among his children, so it broke his heart to see him die such a horrible death.
"William..." Felix staggered, nearly losing his footing as he was about to faint.
"Dad." Trevis quickly got a hold of his father and told him to pull himself together. "You need to calm
down, Dad. We need to find out who murdered William."
When Trevis'' words got to his head, Felix opened his eyes wide and strode toward Jerrick, grabbing
thetter by his cor and questioning him. "Tell me! Who the f*ck killed my son?!"

Meanwhile, Jerrick appeared to be much calmer now as he replied with a shaking voice, "I-It''s a
man known as... Mr. Nicholson, but I don''t know much about him."
"Mr. Nicholson?" Felix pressed on with a menacing look on his face. "Why did that guy kill my son in
such a horrible way?!"
Jerrick answered, "Mr. Nicholson had his men dig up two skeletons from Mount Rochwick, but when
Mr. Jacob trampled one of them, that guy went nuts and killed him."
Skeletons? Mr. Nicholson? When Felix heard those two words, he was stupefied and shocked. He
then shoved Jerrick aside and looked at Trevis. "Take William''s body to the House of Mercy. After
that,e see me in the study."
"Alright, Father."
Upon telling his son what to do, Felix made his way back to the study with a hunched back and sat
on the chair in a preupied manner. At that moment, he seemed as if he had aged by ten years
after the surprising event of his son''s death. He then set his eyes outside the window, his mind
flooded with endless sorrows and worries. Did someone from the Nicholson Family dig up Xavier''s
and his wife''s remains? Is the Nicholson Family''s descendant back for revenge? At the thought of
that, Felix knitted his eyebrows and murmured to himself, "Wait a second. Was the Summers
Residence''s destruction rted to the Nicholson Family? Because if it was, we''re going to be in
huge trouble..."
A few momentster, the door was pushed open, whereupon Trevis walked in tearfully. "Dad,
William''s body has been delivered to the House of Mercy."
Felix nodded, still grieving over his bereavement. "Compile the names of those who are going to
attend William''s funeral. I''m going to honor him with a grand funeral in five days." He then took a
deep breath and pulled himself together. "By the way, are you sure that the Summers Family was
wiped out only because they got on the wrong side of Ares? Could there be something else we
don''t know about?"
"No, there wasn''t anything else." Trevis shook his head. "I didn''t hear any news about that either."
"What about thend upon which Summers Residence was built? I heard it was bought over by..."
Felix paused for a while with a horrified look on his face. "Mr. Nicholson." Although he initially paid
no attention to that matter because he thought the buyer was just nothing more than a rich man who
was interested in the piece ofnd, he couldn''t help but feel his hair stand on end at the thought of
Mr. Nicholson.
"Dad, what do you think about Mr. Nicholson? Is this guy trying to plot against US?
Felix nodded and replied with a cial look on his face, "That man is probably just a nobody, so let''s
not worry about him. If he ever dares to show up again, I''m going to skin him alive to avenge
William!"
In the meantime, Kingsley instructed Leroy
to contact an architecturepany for the construction of Nicholson Family Cemetery right after
giving his parents a proper burial. When everything was done, he got into his car and held onto the
steering tightly, his fingers shivering like crazy. While his parents'' remains had been found, he
realized he was also one step closer to discovering another murderer. Just wait and see, Jacobs!
Overwhelmed by his anger, Kingsley turned red in his eyes as he began to think about wiping out
the entire Jacob Family, but suddenly, his phone''s loud ringtone interrupted his train of thought.
