When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 616: New Year’s Eve
On the forum, there are posts saying that this person carries dozens of lives on his back, his eyes never blinking while killing, once causing public panic.
He has retreated from the world for over a decade, and even the police can’t deal with him.
He’s become the world’s number one fugitive, with a bounty of millions for his head.
Soon, Dustin Shepherd called.
Adrian Lancaster answered, and he reported—
"President Lancaster, it’s been confirmed that Black Hawk is indeed Victor Lane."
This conclusion was within Adrian Lancaster’s expectations; ever since he saw that cap, he’s linked the two together.
"Hmm, what else did you find?"
"He hasn’t started a family, his parents died early, and he’s an orphan."
Upon hearing this, Adrian Lancaster’s brows furrowed slightly, meaning this person has no weaknesses.
Dustin Shepherd also conveyed another message—
"When he couldn’t afford to eat in his early years, Elias Young helped him out, so he repaid Elias Young’s kindness by doing many bad deeds for him."
Hearing this, Adrian Lancaster squinted his eyes.
Repaying a meal with gratitude like that? What’s this person’s psychology?
It seems to treat him better so he can be used, to handle such a killer, it just requires some technique to break through his psychological defenses.
"I understand." Adrian Lancaster asked again, "Is there any news about Claire Keller?"
"Not for now."
"Hmm, keep investigating, inform me immediately if there’s news." Adrian Lancaster was somewhat anxious, really hoping for this matter to have a resolution soon.
"Yes."
After hanging up, Adrian Lancaster quickly composed himself, when facing Faye Turner, he always shared good news, never bad, always gentle.
In these days, Elias Young and Brandon Lancaster were puzzled, unable to figure out how Black Hawk suddenly disappeared?
They’ve already sent people to search for his whereabouts, but still found nothing.
They don’t know if Faye Turner was in trouble... What exactly happened that day? It’s a mystery.
Brandon Lancaster always had people watching Adrian Lancaster’s home, but Faye Turner wasn’t seen coming out, recently going to the company alone, and his mood didn’t change significantly.
So, they are completely in the dark about whether Faye Turner and her unborn child are in trouble.
In two days, it will be New Year’s Eve, the last day of the year.
The snow has melted, bringing a feeling of new beginnings.
"Mrs. Rhodes, please fetch a cloak for Faye, we are heading out." Adrian Lancaster turned to instruct.
"Certainly, young master."
Adrian Lancaster took the red cape from Mrs. Rhodes and helped Faye Turner put it on, then wrapped his arm around her shoulder, "Shall we go?"
"Hmm."
Today, they’re going to shop for New Year’s goods, and the New Year’s gifts were already loaded into the car in advance, all meticulously prepared, even the staff at The Lockwood Old Manor have gifts. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
The Lamborghini drove out of the yard, Mrs. Rhodes stood at the door of the living room, watching the car leave with unease.
The lady had been staying at home these past few days, and it’s unknown what happened... She seemed deeply troubled.
By evening, when the Lamborghini stopped in the old manor’s yard, two cars were already parked in The Lancaster’s yard.
"Looks like your aunt and Brandon are back." Faye Turner’s eyes turned to him as she got out, feeling a bit uneasy.
It’s the first meeting of the brothers after the ’Black Hawk’ incident, definitely not ordinary.
"Let Grandpa have a good New Year first, then I’ll deal with Brandon." Adrian said, wrapping his arm around his wife’s shoulder, leading her inside.
Mr. Kerr took all the gifts from the car, following closely behind the couple.
"Grandpa’s absence and Uncle’s a little bit missing the New Year vibe."
This was the first sentence heard by Adrian Lancaster and his wife as they walked into the living room, spoken by Brandon Lancaster, his voice idle and seemingly aiming to stir things up.
