Chapter 462 There is No If
"Now that the balance is broken, not only the Dragon Club but also our Lafayette family will suffer
losses. Therefore, I really want to find out who is behind this and see who did another kill.
Unfortunately, we haven't found too many results until now."
Archie frowned.
"You didn't even find it out?"
Speaking of this, Pierre looked slightly disappointed.
"No. There are also people who are even cleverer in this world. Over the years, I always thought that
even if the Violet Group couldn't hide the truth, they couldn't be underestimated. But I didn't expect..."
He sighed. Since he said so, no one doubted him.
They looked at each other, and then Archie said, "Okay, let's do as you say. If there is any news later,
please inform us."
Pierre nodded.
He suddenly looked at Natalia and smiled.
"Now that you're done with your business, can you take time to talk about ours?"
Everyone was stunned.
Only Natalia frowned coldly.
She stood up and said coldly, "We have nothing to talk about."
It was as if Pierre had expected her reaction, so he wasn't surprised and only smiled lightly.
"I know you are angry. Not only about your mother, but also about my wrong judgment this time, which
caused Archie to get injured.
But I was not intentional to do this, and a very important reason was that we didn't know each other
before, so there were many misunderstandings.
Now that we have this chance, wouldn't it be better for us all to get to know each other and be honest
with each other than to be hostile to each other?"
Natalia glanced at him. Although she was still angry, she had to admit that he was right.
No matter how she treated them, it was necessary for them to sit down and understand each other.
She turned to look at Archie and saw that he also nodded to her secretly, so she sat down again.
Seeing this, Pierre smiled gently and ordered the scar-faced man to leave first.
Then, he ordered someone to make the best tea. Finally, he slowly looked at Natalia and said slowly,
"You and your father look very much alike."
Natalia snorted. She didn't look at him. Obviously, he still had some opinions on him.
Pierre didn't mind at all, but said lightly, "So, you still don't know your father's name, right? His name is
Jack Lafayette, and he is my elder brother. In the past, he was also a famous young talent in this land.
He was handsome and romantic that so many rich young ladies admired him."
Although Natalia seemed to have some opinions about him, when it came to the topic of her biological
father, she would be more or less interested in it as a normal person.
Therefore, although she pretended not to care, she had already pricked up her ears and listened
carefully.
Pierre also knew why she was awkward and did not mind. Then he continued, "I don't know how much
you know about his relationship with your mother, but let me tell you about it."
He sighed and said, "Your father loved freedom, didn't love to be tired by the world, and never liked this
mandatory marriage of the family.
Therefore, when he met your mother at school, he fell in love with her completely. He had also tried
very hard to break the shackles of his family and be with her.
However, this rule had been passed down for hundreds of years. How could it be easily broken?
Moreover, the vermin had been planted. Unless it was combined with the other half of the person who
planted the vermin, it would take effect in the body. It could not be easily removed.
"Your father knew the consequences, but he still resisted fearlessly. He really loved your mother."
As Natalia listened, she gradually became a little moved. The coldness on his face disappeared,
replaced by curiosity and inquiry.
Then he continued, "When he and your mother were separated, there was really nothing he could do NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
about it. He knew that he was not the one who could be with your mother for the rest of his life after all.
And if she continued to stay with him, it would kill her.
That was why he was disheartened and went far away from home. In the end, he died on the African
battlefield. You know the situation in Africa at the time was so chaotic that even our Violet Group didn't
dare to be involved, while he was over there incognito as a junior soldier with a suicidal attitude. He
had completely given up the hope of life. How could he not die if he wanted?"
Natalia looked at him in silence, at the regret and sigh of relief that showed on his face.
"It's a pity, he thought he could protect your mother like that, but he didn't expect her to suffer from
depression because of his death, and she passed away after a few years. This is perhaps the saddest
thing about a couple of lovers, but the good thing is that you are grown up now, if they are aware in
heaven, they should feel relieved to see you."
Natalia frowned and asked, "Didn't think that my mother would die with his death?"
Pierre smiled. "How can there be so much foresight in this world? If there were, there wouldn't be so
many regrets."
As soon as he said this, the room fell into silence. Everyone did not know what to say for a moment.
Then he continued, "Your father didn't know of your existence when he went off to war, I think if he had
known of your existence he would have stayed a little longer and not chosen that way to die."
Natalia sneered. "Since everything has happened, how can there be so many ifs?"
Pierre choked for a moment and then burst into laughter.
"You are also right, but now that you have grown up, there are some things that belong to you that I still
need to hand over to you, so come to my house when you are free and I will talk to you about them in
detail then."
Natalia was somewhat indifferent and she did not look at him, only saying in a cold voice, "There is no
need, let's talk about this matter later."
Although she was curious about her biological father, she still did not fully accept the fact that the
Lafayette family had become her relatives.
Therefore, she kept some vigilance and rejection of his proposal.
Seeing this, Pierre didn't insist and only said, "It doesn't matter. You can think about it slowly. Don't
worry, I will keep everything that belongs to you for you, and no one dares to covet or take it away.
When you think it over, come to me and I will definitely return it to you."
Natalia did not speak. After a moment of silence, everyone stood up.
