To Love You Again

Chapter 659 - Suspicion Arose

Guan Gu Ri flipped the next page.

There were the pictures of his third brother when he was still a little kid, and another child who had similar features with his third brother.

They were not blurred, unlike in the news channel.

Guan Gu Ri froze and stared at the picture.

He would never forget the appearance of his third brother when he was still a little kid.

The chubby cheeks and shy smile.

Those warm and creamy chocolate brown eyes, filled with a bright light.

On the other hand, the appearance of the other child, although similar, had slightly stronger features.

Thin, and had the eyes that looked like he had gone through many hardsh.i.p.s with no hope.

But unlike his third brother's soft brown eyes, he had a pair of striking golden eyes.

Silence stretched for a very long time.

Guan Gu Ri's face changed to shock, then horror, then graveness. His hand trembled.

A ridiculous thought occurred to him.

What if they were true?

This evidence doesn't seem like they were faked. They were actually so accurate and hold value that made Guan Gu Ri's blood turned cold.

Guan Gu Ri seemingly heard his second brother's plea to believe him. Was his second brother really right...?

Guan Gu Ri wanted to deny all of it. But his heart and sixth sense was telling him to not ignore this.

His heart clenched. If these were really true....

"Where is Guan Gao Huan?"

There was one thing that they could do right now.

One thing that could prove whether this file was fake or not.

"We are still tracking him, Headmaster."

"Locating him is the utmost priority now."

"Yes, Headmaster."

The door suddenly opened.

Guan Gu Ri and the head butler turned to look at the doorway.

"Headmaster! Second Young Master is finally--"

A butler ran inside the room, but before he could finish, a voice came from behind the butler.

"Eldest brother."

The man that they were looking for since early in the morning was standing on the doorway.

A sleek car was speeding fast on the highway. It honked and took over the cars in front of it.

The drivers who almost got into an accident due to the illegal overtaking of the speedy car cursed at whoever was the crazy guy who drove it.

Inside the car, the driver was sweating. His irate boss on the backseat yelled loudly on the phone, putting him on edge.

"What do you mean, you can't find out?! Start with that bastard Guan Xixin! No, start with deleting everything being broadcasted in the news, bribe those channels if you need to. If they can't give any information or don't have signs of backing down, then teach them a lesson and kill them!"

Guan Gao Huan's angry veins were visible on his neck.

He had been trying to keep himself together on the presidential floor since earlier. All of his pent-up frustrations due to this unexpected bomb that was suddenly thrown at his way had been threatening to erupt since earlier, and now that he had gone away from everyone, he could barely hold in his rage.

He wanted to kill all the bastards related to this incident, whether or not they were truly guilty!

"Master, I am afraid that we can't move in for the kill recklessly this time. All eyes are still on you, Master. If someone dies who is related to this matter at this time--"

"Then make it seem like an accident, you fools! Those bastards must have offended a lot of people, you can just lead the trail to them!" Guan Gao Huan ran his hand through his hair angrily.

"...."

There was silence in the other line, obviously disagreeing. After all, the coincidence was too much, and it would only make the situation worse.

The cool air-conditioning breeze from the interior fan on his sweaty skin made Guan Gao Huan recover a bit of his rational thoughts.

He took a deep breath.

No, his butler was right.

Killing people right now would not solve the matter. It would really just make things worse.

He heaved another trembling sigh.

"...No. Just threaten them, or torture them to find out who did this. However, you have to start with Guan Xixin. "

"We still cannot find him, Master. But we are tracking him now."

"Then hurry up! Our priority right now is to stop any of this news to leak further to any social platform. Did the Guan Empire do something?"

"Yes, they are fast. They released a statement to defend you and put a block on the news channels with legal power about privacy infringement and potential slander. But this might be temporary. Furthermore, the word of mouth among the public is still hard to stop."

"You useless... Ha!"

There was a brief silence.

Thinking for a while, Guan Gao Huan spoke again.

"Hype up some news or something controversial to the people. We have intel on a certain politician's misdemeanor, haven't we? Release it to divert the public opinion. Make it big so that this matter will be forgotten and buried."

"Yes, Master. Right away."

The call ended.

Guan Gao Huan tossed his phone away to the side. He took off his coat with simmering anger.

"Damn it! Damn it all! And just right before I got the Guan Empire!"

He pulled on his hair out of frustration.

His eyes were red with rage.

He had been on the high horse since yesterday after that old man had left. He was very confident that? he would get the highest votes, and he really did.

He was crowned as the new chairman.

Everything should be going perfectly to their places. Guan Gao Huan should be having a party to celebrate his success right now.

But like a joyful event that got its light and music cut off in the middle of the party, the news came, halted his happiness and destroyed everything.

With a single mistake, everything would go down the drain. If people started suspecting him and investigated the evidences, they would surely find them suspicious.

It was inevitable.

Because he had erased every single evidence. And it could backfire on him!

Now, what to do?! It was not like Guan Gao Huan could create other evidences in a short period of time and put it in the hospital archives. It would be too late. And like his butler said, too many eyes were watching him.

Even if he did manage to create them, once people investigated deeply, they would be able to determine the alterations.

Guan Gao Huan bit his lips. He tasted the metallic taste of blood.

How was there a record about him in the first place? When he was sure that he had destroyed everything five years ago?!

So why?! Why did something like this happen!

Who was it?!

Guan Xixin's figure entered his mind.

That son of a bitch who had suspicions regarding his perfect mask was likely the one who did this. He was not even in the conference room for the succession trial since morning. He must be preparing it and waiting for the right time!

It must be because of this!

Dammit!

"There's no doubt...." Guan Gao Huan muttered. "It must be that bastard Guan Xixin... But how did that bastard get all this information? I made sure to erase all the traces from five years ago. He should not have found one... So how could he do it?!"
