Chapter 460 - Looking For Alan\'s Killer

After talking for almost two hours with Erick, finally Mr. David Clarke invited his guest to return to the house because it was getting late. He suggested for Erick to rest before having dinner together. When Erick entered the house, Nicholas stared at him without blinking with a thick aura of hostility. Nicholas really didn\'t like Erick.

"What\'s wrong with you, Nick?" Luis asked softly to Nicholas, who couldn\'t stop staring at Erick as the man disappeared from his sight to go up to the second floor with a maid who escorted him to his room.

"Me? I\'m fine," Nicholas answered quickly.

Louis smiled. "You\'re a bad liar, Nick."

"I don\'t like that guy. He\'s openly looking for trouble with me, Luis," Nicholas finally said honestly.

"How is he looking for trouble?" Luis asked again.

Nicholas then told what had happened a while ago before Luis and Mr. David came. Nicholas spoke very quickly and passionately. Hearing Erick speak, Luis just smiled. He knew that Nicholas was very close to his young master, and that was why he felt Erick\'s existence as a threat. Nicholas also didn\'t know the details of the real young master\'s problem, hence he didn\'t know who Erick really was.

"What is clear is that I will not let the young master be taken by that man," said Erick full of emotion when he closed his story.

"No one snatched the young master. You don\'t have to worry, Nick."

"But he clearly offered to be the assistant of the young master, Luis! I\'m sure the man must have bad intentions towards the young master," Nicholas replied back.

Luis massaged his head which suddenly hurt. "Never mind, Nick. You better take a shower now and get ready for dinner. It\'s getting late. You don\'t want to upset the young master if you\'re not ready for dinner tonight."

Nicholas\' eyes widened at Luis\' words. He spontaneously looked at the watch on his left hand. Without speaking, Nicholas immediately left Luis to go to his own room. Seeing Nicholas\' slightly childish behavior made Luis shake his head.

"The man you hate is the previous assistant to the young master, Nick. If only you knew that the young master you are serving today is not your real young master, maybe you wouldn\'t be like this," said Luis quietly. Because dinner time was already approaching, Luis suddenly went to his own room to take a shower. He also had to prepare like the others for dinner.

Luckily, Erick was assisted by a maid to go to his room, otherwise he might get lost. The Clarke family residence, which was very large and had many rooms, would surely make anyone confused if they didn\'t memorize it.

"Are you done?" Alice asked quickly as she welcomed Erick into the room.

"Yes."

"How is it? What were you two talking about earlier?" Alice asked again. Before when Erick was invited to have a serious conversation with Mr. David Clarke in the garden, he had already sent a message to Alice.

Without changing his clothes, Erick slammed his body on the bed and starting to talk. Alice, who was previously sitting in front of the dressing table, moved to a seat next to her boyfriend and listened to all of his stories seriously. Erick told everything that he discussed with Mr. David Clarke from the first time he found Jack, who was in unconscious, until finally Jack was as he was now, lived and behaved like his twin brother, Alan Knight Clarke.

"S-so the man named Alan is really Master\'s twin brother?" Alice asked in surprise, because all this time, she still had the belief that the man named Alan didn\'t exist.

"They were separated since childhood, Alice, so they didn\'t know each other at all. Even when Young Master Alan died, Mr. Jack didn\'t know. I feel sorry for Mr. David Clarke now. At his old age, he still has to try to protect his only grandson and looks for the killer of his grandson. Now I understand why Mrs. Anne insisted on staying in Luxembourg and doing all this," Erick answered quietly. He recalled what Anne had said earlier that she had allowed Jack to use Alan\'s identity and memory until Alan\'s killer was actually caught.

Alice clasped her hands together and brought them to her lips, forming a prayer pose while closing her eyes. "Help us, Lord, help us. Don\'t let any more tears come to us, let us be happy. Especially for Anne and Mr. Jack, they are good people, God. Unite their love, they have suffered too long."

"Amen." Erick immediately answered Alice\'s words.

Alice then opened her eyes slowly and smiled at Erick, who was now sitting opposite her. "Let\'s help them, Erick. Mobilize all the people you have to find out who had actually killed Mr. Alan, so that Mr. Jack can go back to being himself and for Mr. Alan to rest in peace up there. I\'m sure his spirit must not rest in peace as long as the killer is not caught."

"Yes dear, take it easy. I have also discussed this with Mr. David Clarke earlier. He would be happy if Mr. Jack\'s best people intervened. Now all we need to do is contact our people to come to Luxembourg. The sooner they come, the sooner we plan," said Erick with a smile. He was very happy because Alice always supported everything he wanted to do.

Alice suddenly got up from the bed and put her hands on her hips in front of Erick. "Fine, I\'ll call those guys now and you better take a shower. You need to freshen up.? I\'m sure you must be tired."

"Are you sure you want to contact them?" Erick asked in disbelief.

"Yeah, why not? They couldn\'t possibly dare refuse me," Alice answered confidently.

Erick smiled. He then took Alice\'s hands and kissed them lovingly. "Thank you, Alice, thank you for everything you did during these two years beside me. I don\'t know what would have happened if you hadn\'t been by my side."

"That\'s what a partner is for, Erick. I\'ll still do my best to help you. Come on, hurry up and go to the bathroom. I\'ll contact Mr. Jack\'s people in Switzerland."

Erick smiled again. Alice was very helpful to him, as she was always ready to do anything for him, including doing work that was actually outside of her duties as the secretary to the CEO. When Erick entered the bathroom, Alice was busy with her laptop again to contact around ten of Jack\'s confidants who were ready to do anything.

< London, England >

After expressing her intention to Leon to carry out a surrogacy program, Stefi became extremely sensitive, because Leon has rejected his intention. Leon chose to marry another woman if he really wanted to have children.

"Instead of me having to do a program like that, I\'d rather just get that woman pregnant directly without having to bother, I also get the advantage of being able to make love to her and have children from her without having to go through troublesome procedures at the clinic."

Crash!

Stefi threw the plates in front of her as she recalled the words Leon said earlier. Her appetite suddenly disappeared.

"You can\'t get pregnant with another woman, Leon, even if you have a child then that child must be mine. Whether it\'s born from my womb or from the womb of the woman I paid for. Whether you like it or not, you have to be willing to do the surrogate procedure, Leon ... I should ...be the only one who can be the mother of your child, Leon...only me..."
