Ranaway From Wedding, Fell into Tycoon's Love Trap-Chapter 931: How Did That Kid Know?

As Lily Turner searched downstairs, Easton Holmes was already on the phone with Fabian Holmes in the study, the atmosphere on both ends somewhat tense.

"What will it take for you to leave your brother alone?" Fabian’s voice was deep, yet intertwined with urgency.

Seeing that the call was from Fabian, Easton was already very certain of the purpose; his father was still siding with that brother, still favoring that brother.

What was so special about that brother? Why did their father favor and side with him so much? Was it because that brother was born to the woman outside?

What kind of magic did that woman have? Why did she, even after dying so long ago, continue to deeply attract his father?

"Leave him alone? Are you implying I’m picking on your precious son?" He was passive from the beginning, wasn’t he? If it hadn’t been for that kid’s active provocation, how could he have remembered such a person existed?

Upon hearing this, Fabian suddenly realized his previous wording was somewhat inappropriate, and hurriedly explained, "I didn’t mean that, I just want you to forgive your brother this time. After all, you’re his elder brother; wouldn’t you forgive him for Dad’s sake just this once?"

His tone and attitude softened at this point, even carrying a hint of pleading.

"For Dad’s sake?"

Easton softly repeated Fabian’s recent words, as if questioning, or perhaps expressing dissatisfaction.

"I..."

"I want to know how that woman died. Was it really my mom that killed her?"

Just as Fabian was about to say something else, Easton suddenly interrupted him, and the interruption was sharp, causing Fabian quite a headache.

Easton still remembered the incident years back when Amelia Linton took him to find that woman; he recalled his mom being very agitated, very angry. After opening the door, his mom rushed furiously toward the woman, and then the two women began grappling with each other.

Afterward, what happened he couldn’t recall. Seeing his mom and the woman grappling, he glanced at his father, turned, and ran away.

Since then, Easton had completely lost all good impressions of his parents, living at his grandfather’s house and never returning home, refusing them even when they visited during holidays.

Lily had no idea how the woman later died. He didn’t care about his parents, let alone a woman who had nothing to do with him.

"She committed suicide."

Fabian only mentioned that Ivy Shaw committed suicide, not elaborating further, fearing to provoke Easton’s displeasure and anger, without even explaining Ivy’s reasons for suicide.

Easton was no longer the little kid from back then; he could understand certain things now. Fabian’s explanation was simple, but he knew the matter wasn’t straightforward, "Her suicide was related to my mom?"

He knew his mom well enough; that woman was indeed the mistress. It would be unlike his mom to simply let that woman go.

"...Her suicide did indeed have some connection to your mom." Fabian hadn’t expected Easton to ask such a question and after a moment of silence, he spoke truthfully.

Already expecting this, Easton didn’t feel surprised; aside from confusion, he now felt anger. However, he didn’t vent his anger outward. At this moment, he only wanted to get to the bottom of things, "How does that kid know?"
