1230 1230: Their Beloved Mother

“What I know now is that they are heavily focused on experimenting with different chemical serum and also rare medications. Some of the drugs that the Medical Federations have were designed by those in the laboratories belonging to the Hess Family. As for human trials, none of my men were able to be involved in any of it.”

Then, Du Yanzheng turned towards Zhan Lichuan, “Did you find out what happened to the Hess family back then?”

“The Hess family is an eastern family. 300 years ago, they moved to the Central and kept a low profile. It looks as if they aren’t involved in anything, but in reality, it is the opposite. They even tried to invest in AO2. It’s just that I didn’t allow them to.”

Seeing how his brother owned the richest company in the world, Du Yanzheng turned speechless.

“What’s wrong?” Zhan Lichuan paused and asked.

“Nothing much. I just feel that the little boy that had been crying on my back a few years ago has finally grown up. You’re so powerful now, and I can no longer catch up with you.”

“You’re powerful as well. You have completely conquered the third realm with your martial art skills. You even ran for president and I heard that you’re the most popular pick.”

Du Yanzheng broke into a laugh before saying, “That’s enough. Get to the main point.”

Zhan Lichuan continued, “Our mother is called Giamo Hess. She’s the daughter of the 12th head of the Hess family. She could have inherited her father’s position and become the 13th, since there has always been gender equality when it came to that position. They would only allow those with abilities to lead the family, as long as their children carried the family’s last name.”

Du Yanzheng furrowed his brow, “But I remembered that we were only living in a small place. It definitely wasn’t a huge house.”

“That’s right. It’s because our mother was kicked out of the family 34 years ago.”

Du Yanzheng raised his brows in suspicion. He was 32 years old this year.

“The Hess family didn’t like our father?”

“That’s not possible,” Zhan Lichuan denied. “According to my grandfather, our father lived in the Hess Mansion for quite some time. They were living there together for about 6 months, but after that, the both of them were kicked out of the mansion together. When our mother got kicked out, she was stripped of her rights to inherit the position as the head of the family. Ever since then, they stayed at houses that weren’t far from the Hess Mansion.

“This would then prove two things. First, the Hess family did accept our father. Our mother was the head of the family, and once they got married, we would then carry the last name of the Hess family. So, even if they were bothered by our father’s background, it shouldn’t have caused much problems since he was from the Du family.

“Second, when our parents left the Hess Mansion, they still stayed close by. This meant that they were not hunted down in the beginning. However, when you were born, they suddenly moved to another house. When the Hess family came for our parents, it was when the head of the family had died.”

Du Yanzheng nodded his head, “So they were worried that our mother would seize her right to the position, and they wanted to kill her.

“If that’s the case, the person who would kill our mother would be the one that benefited most from her death. In other words, the current head of the family may possibly be the one that killed our parents.”

Zhan Lichuan added, “His name is Eddie Hess. Not only is the Hess family becoming more mysterious with his guidance, they are also getting richer. This man is a powerful one. If we want to know what really happened back then and find the person who killed our parents…

“We can only wait till they come for us, or try to force them to reveal themselves by suppressing them financially. This would be the only way for us to learn the truth about our parent’s death.”
