Chapter 8
Violet’s father, Robert Jordan, was the former top leader of the Brookspring National Security Bureau.
Now he was retired.
As for the relationship between the richest man in Brookspring and Robert, they were simply friends without any interest entanglement.
Vincent obviously had a good relationship with Violet’s family.
With a kind smile on his face, he asked Violet, “How are you, Violet? Are you off work? Are you tired from today’s work?”
“I’m not tired.” Violet shook her head with a sweet smile on her face.
However, she changed the subject immediately after she answered Vincent’s question.
She said in a serious manner. “Dad, Mr. Dunn, I met a strange man today while patrolling Brookspring International Airport.”
“Oh?” Vincent and Violet’s father both looked confused.
They looked at each other. Both of them had a look of interest in their eyes.
Violet’s father, Robert, asked with a touch of curiosity, “What kind of man was he that he could actually arouse my baby daughter’s interest?”
Violet sat down on the sofa and hugged her father’s arm.
Looking at the curious Vincent and Robert, she said, “It was a young man.”
Before Violet could finish her words, Vincent, who was sitting on the other side of the room, showed an ambiguous smile on
his face.
He asked in a teasing tone, “Could it be Violet has met someone she likes? Hahaha.”
Hearing Vincent’s teasing tone, Violet’s face turned blush slightly.
She wanted to deny it and asked directly and shyly, “Mr. Dunn, what are you babbling about?
“How could I like a stranger I just met once?
“Even if I like him, I feel like I don’t deserve him.”
“Oh?”
A look of clear surprise appeared in the eyes of Vincent and Robert after the two of them heard Violet’s words.
They thought in their hearts secretly in surprise, “What? Violet actually feels that she does not deserve that man?”
Who was Violet?
She was the daughter of the former top leader of the Brookspring National Security Bureau, the niece of the richest Brookspring, and would literally become a senior member of the Brookspring National Security Bureau in the fut
in
With an identity like hers in Brookspring, was there actually someone she could not match? Vincent and Robert were both more curious about who the man Violet mentioned was.
With admiration in her eyes, Violet recalled and told Vincent and Robert what happened when Gavin went through the security check.
O
At the time when the security alarm suddenly sounded, Violet stopped Gavin. After examination, she found that there was significant shrapnel inside Gavin’s body, so much so that even his survival was a miracle.
Upon hearing Violet’s words, Vincent and Robert’s shock became even more apparent in their eyes.
Robert asked immediately, “How could there be such a person? And he was a young man in his 20s? How did he get that shrapnel in his body?”
Hearing her father’s question, Violet looked at her father’s eyes with an extremely serious expression and said in admiration, “He got them in the Sunspire Resistance 10 years ago.”
“What?”
Vincent and Robert exclaimed at the same time with shocked looks on their faces.
“That’s impossible,” Robert said loudly and confidently.
He added in shock, “A person in his 20s, and he survived the Sunspire Resistance 10 years ago? In that case, he was only in his teens when he participated in the Sunspire Resistance. How is this possible?”
Robert continued confidently, “Violet, you’ve been deceived.”
When Violet was just about to explain that she could not have been deceived, suddenly, there was a slap sound in the room.
Looking toward the sound source, Violet and Robert found Vincent grabbing Robert’s hand.
Vincent’s movements caught the attention of Violet and Robert at once.
They were surprised to find that at that moment, Vincent’s face actually revealed a complex look of shock, excitement, fear, and even a touch of longing. His pupils were trembling violently.
Robert parted his lips anxiously and asked with concern, “Vincent, what’s wrong with you?”
Vincent cast his disoriented gaze toward Robert slowly before he asked, “Robert, have you forgotten the person who led the Frostpeak Dark Warriors to Sunspire back then? That person was only 18 years old back then.”
“Boom!”
Robert felt as if a thunderbolt had hit his heart instantly.
Violet could feel that her father’s arm, which was originally stable, actually trembled violently in her arms.
Before Violet could ask a question, Robert regained his voice and asked immediately with an expectant expression on his face, “Violet, do you know that person’s name?”
Robert’s voice became somewhat trembling.
Violet had absolutely no idea what was going on. She could only say mechanically, “I… I don’t know what his name is, but I remember that his marching bag seemed to have the letter ‘G’ written on it.”
With two whoosh sounds, Robert and Vincent, who heard those words, stood up directly from the sofa in shock.
The two of them looked at each other with shocked expressions on their faces, their voices trembling. They even muttered in a broken voice at the same time, “Is he still alive?
“He is back!”
On the other side, Zoe snuggled sweetly in Gavin’s arms. The two of them wandered leisurely along the streets of Brookspring, talking and laughing.
Gavin had a smile on his face as well. He had not experienced the feeling of being reunited with his family for a long time.
O
and he was very happy with his sister around at that moment.
But he certainly had not forgotten the information he had learned from the Harper family just now,
The Harper family and its partners had once approached the Taylor family to seek cooperation before destroying the Clifford family.
In that case, the Taylor family might have some clues about the enemies of the Clifford family.
Gavin asked his sister, “Zoe, do you remember Layla?”
Hearing those words, Zoe looked up at Gavin immediately in surprise.
She nodded her head continuously, and said happily, “Yes, I remember. I remember her.
“Over the years, Layla has helped me a lot, or else, I would not have been able to persevere to now.
“Gavin, are you going to look for Layla? Layla will be very happy if she knows that you’re still alive, and she won’t cry and be sad every day.”
Was Layla sad and cried every day? After learning about that, Gavin had a somewhat complicated feeling.
A young girl with see-through bangs and a ponytail appeared in Gavin’s mind. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
The girl always had an innocent smile on her stunningly beautiful face.
Every dusk, she took Gavin’s hand and walked on the Brookspring lawn, leaning against his shoulder and saying sweetly, “Gavin, I really want to grow up quickly so I can marry you.”
The past scenes were constantly recalled in Gavin’s mind. He could not imagine the scene of such an innocent girl, who always had a smile on her face, crying and being sad every day.
As soon as he recalled those scenes, his heart could not help but tingle.
Zoe parted her lips lightly and asked again, “Gavin, are we going to find Layla now?”
Frankly, Gavin quite wanted to see his fiancée from 10 years ago right away.
However, seeing Zoe’s tattered and grimy appearance, he decided to take Zoe to buy clean clothes and freshen before they went to visit Layla.

However, before Gavin could tell Zoe his decision, they heard a sudden roar of a motorcycle engine, accompanied by various strange cheers.
These motorcycles were surprisingly coming in the direction of Gavin and his sister.
Gavin could clearly feel that when they saw this group of motorcycle riders, Zoe’s arm, which was holding his arm, suddenly tightened. A touch of nervousness was revealed in Zoe’s complexion.
Gavin’s brows slowly furrowed.
“Screechhh
A series of brake sounds sounded. Around seven or eight motorcycles unexpectedly surrounded Gavin and Zoe.
After they stopped their motorcycles in place, the motorcyclists took off their helmets one by one and looked playfully at Zoe hiding behind Gavin as if they were looking at something dirty.
A young man, who looked 28 or 29 years old, had yellow hair. He was holding his helmet in one hand and pointing at Zoe with the other hand.
He said playfully, “Yo, hey, Isn’t this Miss Beggar?
“Who is this, Miss Beggar? You still could not help but sell yourself out in the end?”
“You’re bullshitting.” Zoe’s stubborn voice rang out. She gritted her teeth and said to the yellow-haired man, “He is my brother.”
“Yoo-hoo! He’s your brother? Hahahahahaha.” The man with yellow hair, along with the surrounding motorcyclists, laughed a mocking expression on their faces.
After that, the yellow-haired man added, “I can be your brother too, my little sister.”
He turned his head to Gavin and said, “Hey, brat. How much did you pay for this little beggar? I offered her 40 dollars to ask her to sleep with me once last time, but she didn’t agree.
“How much did you pay for her? I’ll give you double. How about you let me have her?”
“Snap!” A clear sound came just after the yellow-haired man said those words.
“Whoosh!” He and his motorcycle were lifted in the air together by Gavin and knocked out backward.
