Chapter 58: The Niece of the Director of the Institute of Medical Sciences
After two days, William held a press conference to announce that he had found his niece, who was also the daughter of the late director Walter, who had been missing for ten years.
Although Lucasta was very afraid of crowds, she could not help but follow William’s wishes because, as he said, this was the fastest way to notify everyone that she still existed.
Furthermore, he wanted her to be recognized by the upper class to start great strides in the future.
Outside the press conference venue, reporters hunting for news were present early.
Everyone wants to take the first photos of the official appearance of the daughter of the late head of the Institute of Medical Sciences and the late famous actress Sharon.
The moment the luxury car stopped, the lens simultaneously pointed to the back door.
Security forces tried to keep their distance, separating the crowd to make way for the main character.
Lucasta clung tightly to William’s arm and looked down at the red carpet as she walked.
In her ears were the buzzing sounds of cameras, chaotic whispers, and somewhere there was also a very loud whistle.
William carefully helped his niece up the steps and pulled out a chair for her to sit down, himself sitting right next to her.
Lucasta’s eyes were glued to the vase of fresh flowers and the microphone in front of her, not daring to look down at the forest of people below.
– Thank you everyone for accepting the invitation to come here today. I am delighted to announce that I have found my niece, the crown jewel of the Wollny family. She’s Lucasta.
After speaking, William took Lucasta’s hand and helped her stand up so the reporter could take photos.
With his encouragement, the blonde girl tried to take a deep breath and raised her head, smiling wryly because inside she was not happy, just worried.
– So the huge assets that you are responsible for managing will be transferred to her, right? – A female reporter’s voice suddenly rang out.
– Of course, I will contact a lawyer and everything will be handed over to Lucasta because she is an adult. Actually, managing that amount of assets also makes me very tired. I’m glad because I’m about to be relieved of a burden.
William’s humorous statement made everyone laugh at the same time.
After just an hour, the electronic articles were posted and the entire press conference was broadcast on television.
Today, gray clouds are covering the city, the scene is completely opposite to the bustling atmosphere in front of everyone but is extremely in tune with the cold heart of the poor girl and the man she is thinking about.
The image of Lucasta in a stylish dress, smiling at the media quickly caught Samson’s eyes while he was loitering in front of the apartment building.
However, the elderly man next to her was the one who attracted his attention the most.
Thirty years have left traces of time on that man’s face, but how could Samson not recognize that man as the one who turned Vincent into ash?
That year, Samson received a punch from Harvey and brought Maris back to the deep forest, letting go of his hatred.
However, when he saw that evil person still living leisurely and happily, the hatred in his heart suddenly burned, he just wanted to strangle William immediately.
– Lucasta, why are you… why are you… his niece?
Samson’s fist tightened, his whole body trembled, and his eyes gradually turned crimson.
He did not expect that he would fall in love with his enemy’s niece. Why does the holy, lovely Lucasta share the same blood as that doctor?
– Samson, your work is done. It’s time for you to return to your lonely life. You can’t harm her only remaining relative.
He tried to suppress the anger rising in his head. The faint smile did not make his face happier but only increased his sadness. He knew from this moment, he had lost her forever.
He pulled back the black cloth that covered his head and quickly left the rich neighborhood.
If he hadn’t seen what was happening on the big screen today, he would have thought she was in the apartment on the fifth floor.
At first, he planned that if he didn’t see Lucasta appear today, he would secretly climb up there to check on her situation.
However, he worried too much, the noble status she had just received would be enough to protect her, bringing her a glorious, comfortable, and safe life.
Lost in his thoughts, his directionless feet took him to a deserted alley. When he realized he was going the wrong way and was about to turn back, a familiar face suddenly appeared, causing him to stop walking.
The girl hid herself in a baggy shirt and quickly wrapped the veil that had just fallen off, then pulled her small suitcase and walked quickly.
– Oh my god… ghost… ghost… – She screamed when she saw the man wearing a black cloth suddenly appear in front of her.
Samson slowly took off his black headscarf, revealing his handsome face with wounds that had not yet fully healed.
Every step he took forward was every step the girl took backward.
– You’re the one who gave my sister a glass of watermelon juice and asked her to bring it to the room on the third floor at the Black Roses Hotel. – His voice was cold, without any emotions.
– No… no… it wasn’t my idea… I… I was forced. The girl trembled and shook her head repeatedly.
– Tell me, who is the person who ordered you? If you don’t say it, today is the day you leave Earth.
When Samson heard footsteps in the distance, he immediately grabbed the girl’s shoulder, and in the blink of an eye, both of them were present at the abandoned house where he was staying.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
The scene of desolation and horror with patchy walls covered with moss and a musty smell made the girl’s tongue stiffen and she couldn’t even open her lips.
– Speak or… die.
He quickly took off his black gloves, revealing a white hand with long black claws, making the girl even more frightened.
If she knew that the object William needed to deal with was a monster, even if he gave her more money, she would not dare to participate in this mission.
– I’ll say… I’ll say… please… don’t… don’t come here…
A cold smile flashed across the corner of the vampire’s bright red lips and two fangs also quickly appeared.
It has been a long time since he revealed his true form in front of humans.
He didn’t expect that when the physical pain faded away, the pain in his heart could still make him lose control and turn into this.
– Who? Don’t waste my time.
– He is… the director of the Institute of Medical Sciences, William Wollny.
– What?
– Right. It’s him. He paid me and only asked me to find a way to make her go to her room, I don’t know anything about the rest. Please spare me, Mr. Vampire.
The girl burst into tears as soon as she finished speaking. She just wanted to change her poor life with a simple mission, but she didn’t expect to get into trouble like this.
Jimmy’s death on the way out of the hotel made her panic and flee her rickety house that night because she feared she would be next.
She knew it was done by William’s henchmen to cover up clues.
Today, suddenly seeing a blonde girl appear next to him as his long-lost niece made her wonder what kind of mission she had gotten herself into.
Therefore, to ensure her own safety, she can only run far away, across the border, and never look back at this luxurious but scary city again.
While the girl was crying and begging to be spared, Samson seemed to hear nothing but Lucasta’s calls of his name.
His adorable little girl has already entered the wolf’s mouth.
Currently, Samson still cannot guess what William wants. After all, why did he want to kill Lucasta time and again and then suddenly take her back and announce it to the media around the world?
– Go.
After finishing speaking, he quickly walked into the empty house because he realized the sunlight was appearing as the gray clouds slowly dispersed.
The girl had to struggle so much to be able to stand up and stagger away because her whole body kept shaking.
– Lucasta, it seems we are still related to each other. I miss you.
The handsome vampire’s sad sigh made the space even more gloomy.
He took the bottle of dried blood, poured it into a glass, mixed it with water, and drank it all in one gulp.
His nails gradually turned white and shortened, his eyes returned to ruby color, and his fangs also disappeared.
It wasn’t until dusk fell and Samson guessed Harvey was on his way home that he changed his clothes neatly and quickly moved to the luxury apartment complex.
His job now is to find a way to approach Lucasta and tell her the truth about who is behind those intentional accidents.
– Harvey.
The familiar call made Harvey startled and turn his head. He silently thanked God that Samson had appeared.
This friend will never understand his mood these past few days. His cold-blooded heart felt like it was hanging on a power line, extremely uneasy.
– This bastard, quickly follow me.
The corner of Samson’s lips curled up in a smile, then he obediently followed Harvey into the elevator.
In his long, hopeless, and boring life, being able to be friends with Harvey and Aurora’s clan was his blessing, a comfort that warmed his heart on a cold winter day.
– Drink fresh blood.
Harvey said as he took the bag of blood out of the refrigerator and poured it into two glass glasses.
While he was about to go to the sofa to enjoy it, Samson drank it all in less than a few seconds.
– A noble vampire who has been corrupted by humans, without any noble temperament at all. – Harvey exhaled and leisurely walked into the living room.
– It’s because you don’t love humans yet that’s why you say that. Samson is no longer shy, his words seem to say that he loves Lucasta.
– Our lovely girl suddenly turned into a phoenix. So when are you planning to return to the forest?
– Not returning.
Ignoring Harvey’s eyes widening in confusion, Samson slowly sat down on the sofa, conveniently took the remote, turned on the TV, and found the news that was broadcasting.
