Chapter 160 Clues Began to Emerge Bit by Bit

At the Suburban Manor

"Mark, I found it. Have a look." Caleb then handed a stack of documents to Mark and said, "This person is named Ken Qin. The Qin family has some influence in the East. That nurse admitted that it was this old man who gave her the medicine and asked her to inject for your father."

Mark eyes darkened, giving out terrifying light.

"By the way, he is the leader of the Crimson Dragon Society. Generally, he would not get involved in the organization's affairs unless for major events. Ordinary people rarely see him, let alone know that he is the real leader of the Crimson Dragon Society." This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

"Crimson Dragon Society?"

"Yes. Eagle was annexed by a domestic organization before. That organization was the Crimson Dragon Society."

"The old man attacked us?" Mark stared straight at the photos on the document. This old man looked like an ordinary businessman. He didn't expect that he would be the leader of the Crimson Dragon Society.

What happened between him and Nelson? Why did this old man have to put him to death?

Suddenly, something occurred to Caleb. He took out his phone, found a photo and handed it to Mark. "This man is Lawrence Xiao. He said he is the grandson of Ken, but according to the investigation, Ken only has one son. His son and daughter-in-law died in a car accident many years ago, even the baby in his daughter-in-law's belly was dead. By rights, he couldn't have a grandson. Unless he has an illegitimate child."

"The most important thing is that the surname of Lawrence is Xiao, not Qin. But the surname of Ken is Qin." Generally speaking, children would have their father's last name, and of course, some would have their mother's. However, the surname of Ken's daughter-in-law was Wang, it was impossible for her son to have another surname.

If they had blood relationship, how could one have surname of Qin, and the other's surname was Xiao. It didn't make sense.

Then Mark turned to look at the photos on the phone, felt that he had seen them before. As he enlarged the photo, a figure popped up in his mind all of a sudden. "I have seen this person before. He's Jessie's elder brother."

"Elder brother?" Caleb was surprised. When did Jessie have an elder brother?

Hearing that, Mark nodded and said, "He is a child of the Xiao family and has been looking for Jessie for more than ten years. But I think this Lawrence is suspicious. The way he treated Jessie was not like what a brother would think of his sister."

It was more like love between men and women!

'The child of the Xiao family?' Caleb wondered. However, the Xiao family had all members died already a decade ago!

Why this Lawrence came out all of a sudden?

"No, the house of the Xiao family was on fire more than ten years ago. All of them were dead. No one survived! Mark, have you ever asked someone to check on Lawrence? Was he a fake one? Also, since Lawrence was Ken's grandson, is there any relationship between them?"

Jessie had lost her family recently. If someone pretended to be her family to create a warm feeling, he was really worried that Jessie would be deceived.

After all, people were easy to lose their mind when they were the most vulnerable and weakest.

Mark raised his eyes. That's right. Why didn't he investigate Lawrence?

Perhaps, he was just like what Caleb said, approaching Jessie on purpose.

Perhaps the missing of Jessie really had something to do with him.

"Caleb, do a thorough investigation on this man. If you hadn't told me, I would have not noticed it. There must be something wrong with this man." No matter he was the child of the Xiao family or the Qin family, there must be something going on between him and Ken.

Caleb nodded and said, "Okay."

Mark sighed disappointedly and weakly leaned against the back of the chair. With his eyebrows furrowing tightly, he said, "Jeffery told me that half of the research in MR has been finished. Once the experiments succeeded, the world would be in a mess, and the consequences would be unthinkable."

When the time came, not only would they be attacked, but the whole world would be dominated by those weapons.

With his eyebrows deeply knitted, Caleb was worried and anxious.

"Damn! They never quit! Their research base was blown up last time. How long has it been since then? They have done half of the research? They are crazy!" Caleb felt angry. They were really pushy!

"What should we do now?"

"I don't know. This time, their location is even more confidential than before. We can't even find a bit of signal."

They had even used a satellite detector, but there was no signal at all. However, wherever there was communication and electric current, the MR would be detected, but it seemed to have disappeared.

Although they knew its existence, they could not find its trace.

After taking a deep look at Mark, both Caleb and Mark were lost in thought.

Someone knocked the door.

"Mr. Mark, a man named Mr. Xiao wants to see you. He is waiting for you at the mansion."

"Mr. Xiao?" Hearing that, Caleb and Mark looked at each other at the same time. Caleb asked, "Is that Lawrence Xiao?"

With his eyes growing dark, Mark asked, "Did he say anything?"

"Yes. He said he was Mrs. Jessie's elder brother and wanted to see you."

"Okay, I'll be right there. Ask him to wait." His subordinate responded and left the room.

With knitted eyebrows, Caleb asked in confusion, "Mark, what do you think he's coming for? Why did he go to the mansion?"

"I don't know." Mark lost in thought. They just found a little clue, but he came to them suddenly. Did he notice something? He suddenly stood up and said, "I'll meet him and see what he's up to."

Caleb stood up too and said, "I'll send some bodyguards to protect you at the mansion, in case something bad happens."

Without saying anything, Mark turned around and strode out of the study.

Sitting on the sofa, looking at the huge mansion, and glancing at the file bag beside him, Lawrence had a mixed feeling.

The Lan family was one of the richest families in X City and even in the country. If Jessie and Mark were married because of love, he was willing to quit and wish them happiness.

But they were not.

That year, Jessie was forced to marry into the Lan family because of Irene and Daniel. Nobody except herself knew how reluctant she was.

Besides, Nelson, that sly and wicked father-in-law, and her father, who cared nothing but money. She was living a life that was worse than death.

The more Lawrence thought about it, the more distressed he felt, and he believed that Jessie should completely end her past life and start a new life.

"Mr. Lawrence, it's been a long time." With his hands in his pockets, Mark gracefully walked towards the sofa and sat down. Mark said, "What do you want to say? Go ahead. I don't like to beat around the bush."

Seeing that there was no sign of being sad or haggard on Mark's handsome face, Lawrence could not help but feel somewhat angry.

For him, Jessie had been missing for so many days. He didn't even find her, except that he had sent someone to look for her for the first two days. Looking at the man who didn't take her seriously and didn't love her, he really couldn't understand why on earth did Jessie love Mark that much!
