Chapter 410: Interesting
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
‘I never thought that such an average person would have such an extraordinary identity. The whole of San Francisco thought of him as a joke and looked down on him, but not me. When I returned to the Larson family, he was the first person I looked for because I’ve always thought highly of him. It’s easy to determine just how impressive someone is. Just take a look at Finn Taylor. He’s been insulted and humiliated for three whole years, but has he ever wavered? No, he simply ignores whatever everyone else says. He won’t be easily shaken. Do you know how much willpower you need to endure that?’?
‘Let’s not talk about others. Just think about it. If you were embarrassed and scolded or beaten up every day, do you think you’d be able to hold it in until the day you have enough power to get back at your abusers? I know I can’t. I don’t know how many people in this world would be able to do that, but I’m sure the number is small. How interesting. So he’s the eldest son of Chicago’s Taylor family and Master Peregrine. I can’t believe he hid such a huge secret.”
Gremlin chuckled. “You don’t have to be so shocked. He might be powerful, but he has to remain alive for that to be of any use. What use would his power be if he’s dead? Haven’t I already said that the Taylor family doesn’t like him? His father and grandma are both dead, and it seems like his mother has already changed and is now on his side. I’m on his younger brother’s side. What I want is for you to join hands with us. Trust me; we’ll easily be able to defeat him. Once that happens, I assure you that your future is set.”
“You don’t have to tell me about all this. You should already know that we’re in the same boat—you’re against Finn Taylor while I’m against Yvette Larson. Since they’re married, I’ll have no choice but to stand on your side. But to be honest, I don’t have very high hopes for you because you guys are such failures. If I were in your shoes, I would’ve dealt with Finn Taylor a long time ago. How could you let an abandoned child become Master Peregrine? You’ve had plenty of time. What have you guys been doing? Didn’t you say that he planned this from the time he was six? You guys lost to a six-year-old kid! Gremlin? Or are you Sprite? I don’t know what your position in the Taylor family or Peregrine Hall is. No matter what, you managed to find me. That can only mean that you must be powerful. Still, it’s a fact that you’ve lost to Finn Taylor.”
Gremlin nearly exploded in anger.?‘I’m here to offer her a collaboration, not to be scolded.’?
“Do you think that I won’t dare to kill you?”
“Sure, you can go ahead and try. But before you do that, I have something to show you.” Hilary Stone then took out a photo. It was a photo of them with Finn Taylor; it had been taken just moments earlier. “Do you see this? I met Finn Taylor here earlier. This means that he knows that I’m here. Don’t you think that he would conduct his own investigations if something happens to me?”
It was purely a coincidence that she had run into Finn Taylor, yet he had inadvertently saved her.
“What do you mean? Did you tell Finn Taylor that you were meeting me here?”
“Of course not! Do you take me for a fool? I just happened to bump into him here. You should be thankful that he left before you came; otherwise, you’d be dead meat.”
“Dead meat? What a joke! His skills are no match for me. I could kill him if I wanted to.” 𝙛𝐫e𝚎wℯ𝗯𝒏𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄o𝚖
“Stop making things up. If you were really capable of killing him, he’d be dead, and you wouldn’t need to be working with me.”
“What? I really am capable of killing him.”
“Of course, I know that you’re strong enough to do that, but that doesn’t mean that you’ll dare to kill him. I’m sure that there’s someone more powerful behind Finn Taylor. I’m sure you’re not even anywhere near close to his level. Do you think I would be easily fooled just because I’m a woman?”
Gremlin was at a loss for words. He had never expected the woman to be so acute and analyze the situation so accurately.
Finn Taylor had Maximus Brugel backing him, and the latter was the most powerful man in the entire Peregrine Hall. Apart from Finn Taylor’s grandpa—whom nobody knew whether he was still alive or dead—nobody had ever managed to beat Maximus Brugel.
He had indeed thought of killing Finn Taylor in the past, but he had been taught a painful lesson.
Because it was better to keep some things under wraps, he naturally said nothing about what had happened, and Finn Taylor did the same. Of course, it was in Maximus Brugel’s best interest to keep them confidential too. Yet, that woman had managed to see through everything and learn of the truth!
‘This woman isn’t one to be trifled with. Who is she? What kind of grudge does she hold against the Larson family to be going to such an extent?’?
“I’m sure you’re not an ordinary person either. Which family are you from?”
“My whole family was killed off a long time ago, so don’t bother trying to look into my background. I have nothing to hide, and there’s no need to suspect me since we have the same goal. You want Finn Taylor dead, and I want Yvette Larson dead. It’s as simple as that.”
“How interesting. This is just a family tussle, but you’re talking about bringing down an entire family?”
“So you better know not to lie to me anymore.. My family background isn’t any worse than Finn Taylor’s.”
