1292 1292: Dead For Love
He laid on the ground and seized. He tried to speak, but other than the foam that was coming out of his mouth, there was nothing else that came out.
He pleaded with his eyes, but El gave him nothing but a cold glance. His eyes were stone cold.
Jinqian could see that Eric’s eyes were filled with remorse.
If he was given a chance after experiencing such horror, he definitely wouldn’t have killed his own daughter in exchange for more information about the experiment.
However, what’s the use of being regretful?
Eric continued seizing and finally died.
Du Yanzheng quickly asked, “What about my father? Since you already arrived and knew that they were going after my brother, why didn’t you save him?”
El did not answer the question that Du Yanzheng raised.
Due to how Du Yanzheng looked like Du Bo, El was obvious with his attitude towards both his nephews.
He loved Jiamo, and Du Bo was his love rival. Why would he rescue a love rival?
Jinqian was thinking about it when the video was fast forward. Du Bo ran into the room that belonged to him and Jiamo. Seeing how Jiamo laid dead on the ground, Du Bo cried in pain as he held onto his wife.
It was obvious that the moment he saw Jiamo who was dead, Du Bo had lost everything in him.
Zhan Lichuan and Du Yanzheng watched how their father held onto their mother’s body and was crying his eyes out.
Zhan Lichuan gulped as he could already guess how his father ended up dead.
The ending was as what Zhan Lichuan had assumed.
Du Bo stopped crying. He rubbed away the tears on his eyes and told El that Du Yanzheng had run off with his younger brother, headed West. He was hoping that El would be able to watch over them and send them away. He also mentioned that if the brothers were not in trouble, no matter what they did in the future, he would have to stop them from returning to the Hess family.
“Aren’t you going to watch them grow up?”
Du Bo shook his head. His eyes looked lifeless. There was nothing wrong with his eyes, but he looked as if he was blind.
“I don’t think so. El, thank you for always being there for Jiamo, along with taking care of a useless man like me. With you protecting Xiao Zheng and Xiao Mo, they would definitely end up better than how they would be with me. Jiamo did not get to live a good life while she was with me. Now that she’s there, I’m sure that with her personality, she would be able to live a good life. I’m worried that she may feel lonely and I have to be there for her.”
El was pissed, “I am her brother and I have been doing a better job at taking care of her.”
However, Du Bo smiled instead, “You may be her brother, but I am her husband.”
With that sentence itself, it was enough to shut up El’s mouth.
“I… I will be leaving both the kids to you. They are both wonderful children. Jiamo changed SE2 on Xiao Zheng and modified SE9 on Xiao Mo. None of them will turn out bad. You would only have to make sure that they don’t get harmed by those from the Hess family.”
El was shocked as he was feeling pissed, “Are you crazy?! How could you inject such things into your children? Don’t you know that there are major side effects?”
Du Bo laughed instead, “Due to how we’ve used their gene as the sample of the whole experiment, the benefit of having their genes modified would surpass the side effects of it. Since both Xiao Zheng and Xiao Mo’s genes are different, there would be all sorts of problems with it. It would be different for the both of them. They would at most have resistance towards certain drugs. Nothing else serious will happen.”
El said in a cold tone, “Fine! They are your sons, after all, and not mine. Why should I be worried?”
“Thank you, El.”
El kept a cold look on his face and did not bother answering.
After that, Du Bo placed the gun against his head and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
When the gunshot was heard, Jinqian saw how both Du Yanzheng and Zhan Lichuan trembled.
Although they already knew what their father would do next, Jinqian could still feel that something changed emotionally when they saw how their father laid in a pool of blood, next to their mother.
The video finally ended.
El wasn’t bothered with what they had in mind as he muttered to himself, “After your father’s death, I went searching for you. I wanted to help you, but your father was the one who said that I should only help you when you were in trouble. They didn’t want the both of you to return to the Hess family.
“I knew what he wanted. The Hess family was a mess, and even if I tried my best to protect you, I would never be able to ensure that the both of you would grow up safely. When the two of you got separated, I could only send my men to protect you from behind.
“After that, Master Du and the rest of the Du family found you and took you home. One of you became Z, who dominated the Centrals, while the other became the Director of AO2. You have already acquired the abilities to fight the Hess family, and I am glad.”
Du Yanzheng and Zhan Lichuan looked at El, as they didn’t think that their uncle would know all about this.
Plus, their uncle had indeed helped them all these years.
Although he didn’t do much, he still followed their father’s last wishes and ensured that they grew up without any trouble.
Otherwise, with El’s abilities, they would have died multiple times.
The brothers both had an unique look in their eyes.
“Now that the two of you are getting stronger and even better than me, there’s nothing for me to do now. In fact, I have done nothing much for the both of you.”
“Please don’t say that. Thank you for protecting us as we grew up,” Zhan Lichuan quickly said.
“Thank you, Uncle. We can never forget how you have protected us all these years.”
After getting acknowledged by Zhan Lichuan and Du Yanzheng, a smile appeared on El’s face.
“As for Eddie, Jiali and Hawkins, I have already sent all the evidence of their crimes over to the police station and the rest of the media. As for the Hess family, their roots are rotten and it would take a long time for the entire family to be cleaned and polished.
“Even if they are in jail now, they would still be able to live their lives inside, since the Centrals are different from the rest of the countries. Only if they disappear or end up dead will you be at peace for the rest of your lives.”
El continued, “But both of you are smart men and I don’t have to wonder if there’s anyone out there who may harm or disturb the both of you.”
El placed documents on the table and said, “These are the rest of the things that your mother left behind, including her men. I will be passing it on to Ah Chuan and you two shall split it amongst yourself.”
