God Of War Dad

Chapter 247: A Life For A Life



Ten days!

Within ten days, if Sean couldn’t uncover the truth about the incident five years ago and find solid evidence, he wouldn’t have a legitimate reason to act against Pierce Porter!

Facing Fergus Archer, Sean’s chances were slim!

Even if he wasn’t killed by Fergus Archer, the situation would at least result in mutual injuries. The wounded South Forest Beast King and General Wolf of the North would be like two crippled tigers. Prince Roscoe would take the opportunity to eliminate Fergus Archer, and Prince Ashby would naturally take the opportunity to eliminate Sean!

Even more!

Prince Ashby had full confidence in Fergus Archer’s strength, believing that Fergus alone could legitimately eliminate Sean!

After all!

Prince Roscoe knew that Sean had one foot in the Bright Realm, but Prince Ashby didn’t!

This was Prince Roscoe’s advantage!

In Prince Roscoe’s view, even if Sean and Fergus Archer were at the same level and both touched the threshold of the Bright Realm, Sean was unlikely to kill Fergus Archer alone!

So…

To put it bluntly!

Prince Roscoe wanted to use Sean to trade injuries with Fergus Archer!

And then…

He would send someone to assassinate Fergus Archer, allowing Prince Ashby to send someone to assassinate Sean. The final result would be a life for a life!

Sean’s life for Fergus Archer’s life!

As long as the huge threat of Fergus Archer was eliminated, Sean would lose his value, and Prince Roscoe would close the power gap between him and Prince Ashby. As for Sean’s life and death, would it still matter?

Would the truth about what happened five years ago still matter?

Sean had died. Did the truth from five years ago still matter? After Sean went to the capital, Prince Roscoe could naturally see that Sean was a man of integrity, resolute in his actions, like a runaway horse, impossible to control, and might even bring disaster upon himself!

So!

Prince Roscoe had never thought of making Sean submit; he only wanted to use him! After he didn’t need him, he would discard him directly! Understanding this, Pierce Porter secretly breathed a sigh of relief while wiping the cold sweat from his forehead!

Prince Roscoe dared to compete with Prince Ashby for the throne, proving himself to be a cunning, ruthless character. In his eyes, everyone was just a chess piece on his board…

After leaving the Porter villa, Sean and the others took a car back to Jade Restaurant. Sean let Tim Lewis ride in his luxurious Bentley as well. On the way, Tim Lewis, looking pale and grim, asked cautiously after some hesitation, “Mr. Mason, did I…?”From NôvelDrama.Org.

“Did I really say those things to you?”

He was almost depressed to death! Sean had directly accused Pierce Porter in front of everyone, making him the scapegoat. Although Tim had suspicions, they were only doubts, and he had never mentioned them to anyone! Now, Pierce Porter would undoubtedly want to grind him into dust!

“Of course, it was you,” Sean said without turning his head. “If it wasn’t you who told me, would I have made it up?”

It sounded quite reasonable.

“But I…” Tim Lewis frowned, muttering quietly, “I don’t remember any of it…”

“That’s not important!” Sean’s voice deepened, and he continued, “What you need to do next is to use all the resources and connections at your disposal to find out the truth about my grandfather’s sudden death, and gather evidence!”

“But…” Tim Lewis’s face darkened even more. “It’s been five years. It might be difficult to find anything now.”

The death of Williams Mason not only involved the Mason and Porter families, but also the struggle for power between Prince Ashby and Prince Roscoe. Investigating the truth in the midst of their conflict was akin to snatching food from a tiger’s mouth and pulling chestnuts from the fire. One misstep could lead to disaster!

“You’re wrong.” Sean shook his head, unconvinced. “Now is the best time to uncover the truth!”

“Oh?” Tim Lewis was puzzled. “What do you mean, Mr. Mason?”

Sean explained, “You said before that the person who conspired against my grandfather was most likely Prince Ashby, but Prince Roscoe could also be a suspect, and the two brothers are at odds with each other for the throne.”

“So…”

“No matter if it’s Prince Ashby or Prince Roscoe, the Mason family or the Porter family, whoever the murderer is would want to cover up the truth. On the other hand, whoever is innocent would want to expose the truth, deepening my hatred for the other party, using me as a pawn, a sharp knife, a long spear, to take revenge and eliminate their rivals!”

“Isn’t that right?”

Upon hearing this, Tim Lewis was stunned, his eyes lighting up as he realized the truth. Excited, he said, “Mr. Mason, you mean that one of the two parties will try to stop us from finding the truth, while the other will secretly help us and, if they have evidence, might even provide it to us willingly?”

“I understand now!” “Mr. Mason you are truly wise and insightful!” With that, Tim Lewis gave Sean a thumbs-up, admiring his brilliance.

This was human nature! To strike at one’s weakest point, one’s enemies would often attack where they were most afraid.

Previously in Hilshire, Old Mrs. Mason had deliberately called Sean, pointing the finger at the Porter family. Now, Sean viewed Pierce Porter as a suspect. If Old Mrs. Mason knew any inside information or held any evidence, Sean didn’t believe she could resist handing it over to fuel his rage against the Porter family.

The Mason family was to be annihilated. But before that, Grandfather Williams Mason’s vengeance must be sought! After all, the sudden illness and death of Williams Mason five years ago marked the beginning and origin of a series of tragedies. Behind it all, perhaps, lay even more hidden conspiracies unknown to others.

“We must act quickly!” Sean reminded them. “It’s best to uncover the truth before Fergus Archer reaches the capital!”

“Rest assured, Mr. Mason!” Tim Lewis nodded. “I’ll do my best!”

Upon returning to Jade Restaurant, Tim Lewis left with members of the four great families, while Sean handed his black supreme card to Spirit Wolf, instructing, “You will go in person! Help me purchase some medicinal materials to aid in my cultivation; starting today, I will have a closed-door medicinal bath!”

In the path of cultivation, although talent and bloodline were crucial, external assistance was indispensable, such as some precious medicinal materials. After being properly prepared, these materials could be absorbed by the human body through medicinal baths, greatly enhancing the cultivation speed and reducing the risks involved in the process. This was also the reason why royal children and members of great families could have a better chance of becoming dark energy masters.

Spirit Wolf was naturally an expert in this field. “Alright!” Spirit Wolf took the supreme black card and left.

Watching Spirit Wolf drive away, Pupil Wolf looked back at Sean with concern. “Against Fergus Archer, do you not have confidence in winning?”

Sean exchanged a glance with her and shook his head. “It’s not even about ‘confidence’.”

With that, he strode into Jade Restaurant. Pupil Wolf’s pupils suddenly shrank, and she stood there, her face filled with even more worry. No confidence? In all these years following Sean, she had never seen him lose!
