1260 1260: Talks of the Past

Eddie looked at El, and the look on his face was much more gentle than before.

“I was just asking if Jiali was the one who killed Jiamo, but she denied it. She said that the ones who seem less suspicious might turn out to be the real culprit.”

El did not say a word. He walked toward his siblings, and suddenly, he raised his arm and gave a tight slap on Jiali’s face.

Jiali was pissed as she screamed, “What is wrong with you?! How can you just believe everything that he said?! He said that I killed Jiamo, but does he have the evidence? Plus, who took over her position once she was dead?!

“The Hess family is the second richest family on earth! We earn a total of 40 trillion every year. We earn more than the GDP of the other countries added together. Who wouldn’t want to be in the seat of the head of the family?!

“Why would I kill her? Just because I looked down on her for marrying a man from Country Z? If that’s the case, I shouldn’t have killed her! She’s the one who didn’t marry the man from the Hills family according to what our father wanted! I would have wanted her to be alive so that I could witness how bad of a life she’s having!! Why would I want her dead?!”

El looked at her coldly as if he hadn’t heard what Jiali had asked earlier, “You went after her children?”

El’s words made Jiali stunned.

They were discussing who killed Jiamo, but El suddenly changed the topic to Zhan Lichuan.

Seeing how El was about to kill her, Jiali sneered and denied it. “I did not!”

“You better wish you didn’t and that your son was not involved as well. You should also pray that I don’t find anything, or else, I will ruin everything that you care about. Your son and your gene lab. None of them will be able to get away with this!”

“Are you out of your mind?!”

This time, it was Eddie and Jiali.

Jiali was shocked because El was going after her son and the lab.

As for Eddie, he only cared about the gene lab.

This was the secret weapon that the Hess family had for a brighter future. They were about to succeed!

“El, they are two separate things! I was interrogating Jiali as well if she was the one who killed Jiamo. If she is indeed the murderer, I will never let her get away with it, but the gene lab is something that the entire family depends on. If you expose the gene lab, you will ruin all of the efforts that the entire family has put into it. Forget about Jiali, none of them from the Hess family will allow you to get away with it.”

“Then, tell me. Did you get Hawkins to go after Zhan Lichuan?! Were you the ones who caused his paralysis?!”

Jiali’s eyes flickered with fear, but she was still denying it, “No! I already said that it wasn’t me!!”

However, from the look in El’s eyes, was there anything that she could hide from him?

Jiali stared at El, and she was indeed afraid of her second brother. Then, she warned him, “El, I’m warning you! If you dare lay hands on my lab, I will ruin you!!”

Jiali then let out a cold laugh as she said, “If you dare expose the gene lab, I will then tell the rest of the world about your love for Jiamo. The one that is between a man and a woman. I still have pictures of how you tried to get physically close to her and those loving looks in your eyes when you looked at her. The second young master of the Hess family actually fell in love with his own younger sister. Do you think that you would still be able to face the world?”
