Sean couldn’t help but think of the rumors surrounding Julian and Diana when they were young.
Back then, Diana was said to be just a stand-in, and Julian had once deeply hurt her.
However, those were past misunderstandings. His parents had long overcome them.
Now, if there was any unhappiness, it could only be because…
Daddy didn’t love Mommy anymore.
Daddy wanted to abandon his pregnant mommy.
The more Sean thought about it, the more he felt that this was a possibility.
With Lucas having nothing urgent to attend to, he noticed Sean’s surprised expression, and instantly felt like he had
a gossip partner.
“What’s the matter? You seem so surprised. Do you know Julian?” Lucas asked.
“No,” Sean denied once again, continuing to feign innocence to lower Lucas’s guard. “I’m just curious. Why would
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe professor punish someone for not cherishing their wife? Isn’t the professor just a teacher? Aside from teaching,
are teachers supposed to care about whether their students cherish their wives or not?”
“The professor I’m talking about isn’t a regular teacher,” Lucas clarified. Since Lucas had abandoned the idea of
framing Sean for a murder he didn’t commit, he had become more patient with Sean. “He’s my boss.”
“Your boss?”
Lucas didn’t elaborate further, and skillfully changed the subject. “He’ll be your boss too in the future. If you join us,
I guarantee you’ll soar to great heights. Also, your family will become prominent figures in Richburgh. No one will
ever question your existence. As for Julian Fulcher, he won’t be the professor’s student anymore. The professor
couldn’t stand how Julian treated a pregnant woman, so he decided to give him a lesson.”
This statement worried Sean even more. He furrowed his brows, pretending as he gently probed, “His wife is
pregnant?”
Lucas nodded. “Yes. His wife’s friend passed away recently, and she’s been feeling down these days. Our boss
wanted Julian’s wife to come out and relax. Julian not only failed to accompany her, but he didn’t even go to the
airport to see her off.”
This angered Jim, leading to the subsequent decision not to allow Julian to come to Jacroaof.
Sean felt that this wasn’t something Julian would do, so he continued to ask, “But you… I mean, our boss, the
professor, in your words. What is his relationship with Julian Fulcher’s wife?”
“Hehe…” Lucas chuckled. “It’s not much of a relationship. It seems to be just a concern for a pregnant woman. Our
boss cares a lot about her.”
After saying this, he glanced at Sean, signaling him not to ask any further.
“Just complete the tasks on time. If you do well, I’ll let you go and return to the normal training of the training
squad.”
It seemed Sean was still not allowed to leave. He had to continue staying in this interrogation room, enduring a
humiliating way of life.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLucas believed this was how he could break and control Sean’s genius and spirit.
Sean understood Lucas’s intentions to some extent, but he couldn’t help feeling disappointed. He didn’t want to
continue living like a dog and eat in such a degrading manner.
He wanted to go out, have regular meals, undergo normal training, and receive proper treatment for his injuries.
However, he was now more concerned about Diana. This time, she was pregnant with twins, and her health wasn’t
as good as before. She needed someone to take care of her.
If her mood wasn’t exceptionally bad, Diana wouldn’t have come to Jacroaof alone.
Which of her friends had died? Which one would make her so upset?
The only person that Sean could think of was Nina, his godmother.
Did his godmother pass away?
Sean wanted to search the internet for information, but feared that Lucas would find out.
He had to continue finding a way to extract the information he wanted from Lucas.
“Which friend of Julian Fulcher’s wife passed away?”
