Chapter 28 It’s him. Sean’s Back
“Take the three of them to the hospital.”
Aiden Roberts looked over his shoulder to a dozen security guards nearby and said, “They can’t die now without the boss’s orders. Leave them alive and at the mercy of the boss.”
“Yes, sir!”
A dozen security guards gathered around, picked up Carter Moore, Dylan, and Isaac, and marched them out of the office.
“And you two.”
Aiden Roberts then went behind the couch and tapped Hudson and Connor Scott on the shoulder, “What you just saw, what you just heard, you better keep it to yourself. If it gets out of your mouth…”
“Well, maybe someday, I’ll visit Brilliant Pictures myself.”
His sentence was very threatening!
Before Hudson and Connor Scott said yes or no, he turned and walked away.
Thomas Backer and Cameron Brown followed.
Hudson and Connor Scott were the only two actors left in the huge office. Hudson couldn’t help but ask, “Dad, what the hell is going on?”
“I have no idea.”
Connor Scott shook his head. He had witnessed the whole thing, but he was still confused.
“So, our partnership with the Moore Group…”
“The Moore family is over!”
Connor Scott stood up, looked down at the shredded contract at his feet and said grimly, “If it was just someone big in Hilshire, it wouldn’t have scared Luke Young and Carter Moore that much, even if the richest man Owen Sanchez showed up. So, that must have been someone important on the phone, maybe from the Crane Town or the Capital City!”
“A big shot of this caliber meddling in Hilshire, things are about to change for Hilshire.”
A big boss?
Bigwigs from the Capital City?
Hudson was terrified. For some reason, he suddenly thought of Sean.
To be more precise, he was thinking of Sean’s quaint black card and the image of Luis Sanchez rushing away.
Was there any connection between Luis Sanchez’s unusual reaction and the black card?
If it was.
That meant the black card must have been something special, something that even Luis Sanchez would have balked at.
He was Luis Sanchez!
Son of Owen Sanchez, the richest man in Hilshire. What was there in the whole of Hilshire, or who, that he feared?
Hudson was thinking of bigwigs from Crane Town and the capital City, too!
But Sean Mason…
Was that ugly guy really that cool?
“What are you thinking about?”
Connor Scott noticed something was wrong with Hudson.
“No, nothing.”
Hudson came to his senses and asked, “Dad, have you ever seen a black bank card? It was dark, with a strange sign and a string of letters…”
Hudson couldn’t see it from a distance, so he could only describe it to Connor Scott roughly from memory.
“Oh?”
Connor Scott frowned, thought for a moment, and shook his head, “I don’t remember it. Why do you ask?”
“I met someone today.”
Then Hudson told Connor Scott about Sean, “He’s the Moore family’s new son-in-law, Cecilia’s husband. I heard he just got out of prison for rape five years ago…”
“Five years ago???”
“Rape!!!”
While the speaker was careless, the hearer was attentive. Hudson was not involved in or aware of the incident five years ago. So, the words came out of his mouth like nothing.
But Connor Scott was different!
Connor Scott was there and he was one of the people behind the drinking. He knew the whole story, and of course he knew what happened to Nicola and Sean.
One was wrongfully imprisoned, the other returned to the Capital City and died on her knees in front of the Mason family’s gate!
Nicola’s grave was in Peace Cemetery, west Hilshire!This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
what a coincidence!
Same five years ago, same rape!
The Moore family’s son-in-law and Cecilia’s husband.
Cecilia was selected and thrown into Sean’s bed as evidence of Sean’s rape because Connor Scott, Morton Miller, the owner of the Miller Family, and Michael Taylor, the owner of the Taylor Family negotiated and decided so.
So, unbeknownst to outsiders, the Moore family, or even Cecilia herself, Sean was Phyllis’s biological father.
But Connor Scott knew!
To be on the safe side, Connor Scott had kept the incident of five years ago to himself and had never spoken of it to anyone else. Even his son Hudson knew nothing about it.
“Dad, what’s wrong?”
Connor Scott’s facial expression was so intense that Hudson was shocked.
“The man you’re talking about, what’s his name? What does he look like? How old is he? His height, his build, give me a description as detailed as you can!”
Connor Scott stopped and grabbed Hudson, his hands shaking.
“Dad, why are you…”
Hudson frowned and thought in shock and doubts, “Is Sean really a hidden badass? Not only did Luis Sanchez recognize him and run, but dad knew him, too?”
“Cut the crap and say it!”
However, Connor Scott just kept asking questions, and did not want to explain the meaning.
Hudson had no choice but to be honest, “His name is Sean Mason. He’s in his twenties, tall, athletic, big build, good fighting skills…”
“Sean Mason!”
Even though he was prepared, Connor Scott felt like he was struck by lightning when Hudson said Sean Mason. “It’s him. It’s really him!” he muttered.
“He’s out!”
His voice was not loud, but there was an indescribable alarm and bitterness in it.
Hudson asked, “Dad, do you know him?”
“Let’s go.”
Connor Scott still hadn’t revealed Sean’s identity to Hudson, but he pulled him along and said in a hurry, “Hudson, I need you to go home and pack your things for tomorrow…”
“No! Book a flight tonight to the Capital City with your mom! Go to the Capital City and find your uncle and brother! In recent years, they have developed the market in the Capital City and developed quite well.”
Hudson was stunned.
“Go to the Capital City?”
He asked with a look of incredulity, “Everything’s fine. Why are you suddenly sending me to the Capital City with my mom? Besides, you’re making it like an escape, you know? Dad, is there something you’re not telling me?”
“Listen to me. That’s the right thing to do.”
Connor Scott said gravely, “Don’t think about anything, don’t ask anything, and when you get to the Capital City, your uncle will tell you why.”
“But you…”
“Don’t worry, I’m fine.”
As they left the Moore Group and went downstairs, Connor Scott pushed Hudson into his black Mercedes and watched him disappear down the street, taking a deep breath. He turned to get in and directed the drive, “Take me to the Sea Lake Hotel immediately!”
Then he took out his cell phone, found the numbers of Morton Miller and Michael Taylor, and called them one by one…
