Chapter 225 Revelations Part Two!!
"It was also after that incident, our relation with the Wolner Clan started deteriorating,"
Alfred said grimly. The frustration and anger could be felt in his voice.
When Aurora heard this, her eyes fell on Shin, who was sitting quietly without speaking a word. Feeling Aurora's gaze, Shin also understood her thoughts.
Although he didn't want to remember his past. But things have come to this point. It's better this way. Moreover, there's Alice. He had been keeping her in the dark. So now it's time for her to know everything, too.
Reina stroked Alfred's back and said. "Calm down, dear."
Under Reina's comfort, Alfred took a deep breath and nodded.
Reina looked into Aurora's eyes with a sad expression and said.
"... When we got the news. We went to that location but we didn't find any traces of survivors. Claire's body was missing and Louis died in the blast."
Aurora, of course, knew this matter wasn't a lie. Because they had already cremated Claire's body and Niles did a great job hiding their traces. Moreover, the next day after the incident there was a heavy rain which must have hidden the rest of the possible traces.
"We thought everyone was dead. Only now did we find out that you were alive."
Reina felt the guilt welling up inside her. She couldn't save her friends and their daughter and she was even more ashamed because the culprits behind these brutal killings were her relatives.
"I really wanted to kill that bastard," Reina said with extreme hatred in her eyes.
Alfred on the side was also very angry remembering that person.
When Aurora heard their words, her cold expression was slightly shaken. She didn't ask why they didn't avenge her parents. Because it doesn't matter to her. It was her responsibility to take revenge and she won't stop until the end. She doesn't want someone else to take revenge in her stead.
Taking a deep breath, Aurora decided to ask the main question. Although Aurora wanted to know more about her parents and their college life. She first needed to determine one thing. Whether the people in front of her are going to be her enemies or allies.
Turning her head in Shin's direction, she said. "It's time to fulfill your promise. Tell me your relation with Wolner Clan?"
Reina and Alfred glanced at each other, wondering what this was about, and then simultaneously looked at Shin. Alice and Emily were the same.
Under everyone's gazes, Shin opened his mouth to speak.
"Fine, but I think Dad should explain it. Because he knows things in more detail."
Before anyone could question him, Shin looked at Alfred and said, "Dad, they are soon going to take action. We will face our past. It's time for us to make a decision and I think Alice and them should know about it."
Alfred's expression became serious as he looked at Shin and asked, "What are you planning, Shin? Are to going to take revenge on them?"
Hearing the word revenge, Aurora and Emily's eyes narrowed. Although Shin had said that their relationship with the Wolner Clan was quite bad. They didn't know how much hatred they had.
Shin nodded with a solemn expression and said, "If they want to do something, of course, I won't sit still. Previously, I didn't have the strength to face them. But now I can. Whether directly or indirectly, I will let them suffer."
Hearing Shin's words, both Alfred and Reina looked at him seriously. They also knew Shin wasn't joking. All these years, even if they wanted revenge, just with the two of them and their strength. They couldn't do it.
But now Shin has become a lot stronger. It's not just him. The members of his guild or also quite strong. Also, they are going to continue growing stronger. So they might really do it.
Alice also felt Shin's hatred and anger in his words. Which also aroused her hatred. She wanted to cut and torture all those people who wronged Shin.
But before that, they had to know what actually happened.
Alfred's heartbeat became faster and his expression sharpen. "Fine, if that's what you want, I will support you."
Inwardly in his heart, he said, 'I'm sorry, Mom. Things have come to this. There's no other way now.'
Shin let out a faint smile while Reina gave a small nod as a gesture to go on. Then his eyes glanced over at Aurora, Emily, and Alice. Taking a deep breath, Alfred started speaking.
"Before I tell you what happened between us to cause such hatred. Let me first explain our relation with the clan."
"I am Alfred Wolner. The son of the Patriarch of the Wolner Clan, Nicholas Wolner."
This news came as a shock for both Aurora and Emily. Because they had investigated some information about the Wolner Clan, but they never knew about the existence of Alfred.
Emily frowned and asked, "Doesn't Nicholas Wolner only have one son named Keith Wolner?"
Alfred wasn't surprised by Emily's words. But Shin, on the other hand and was a little angry as he mumbled. "As expected, after the banishment, they erased all our information."
His words caught Aurora and Emily's curiosity. Without letting them wait, Alfred spoke again.
"Nicholas Wolner had two sons. His first son, Keith Wolner, and his second son, Alfred Wolner. But after our banishment, all our information was erased from the clan."
"Anyway, Nicholas Wolner also had a younger brother named Reizer Wolner. A person with great ambitions." Alfred said the latter sentence with a hint of sarcasm and hatred.
Aurora and Emily noticed that but didn't as anything about that and just listened attentively.
Noticing that his mood was indeed wrong, Alfred calmed himself down and started speaking.
"Nicholas Wolner has always been a power-hungry man. He never cared about the family. What he wants are just tools and pawns. Even when my mother died a few years ago, he didn't care."
"His younger brother, as I said, is a man with big ambitions and to achieve them, he would sort to any insidious and cruel schemes. He also has two sons, his second son, Rafe Wolner. You should be familiar with."
