Chapter 515 Who do you want to protect?
William pursed his lips, took the file bag, and opened it suspiciously. Vivian had been staring at him
with her eyes since he entered the door.
It was undeniable that she was happy when he said he trusted her.
But when she saw Mr. Hamilton throw something over, her heart was nervous for no reason.
Was that file so important that it would puncture the shaky trust between them at once?
Vivian bit her lips, and her palms were filled with sweats.
When William saw the thing inside, his face changed suddenly for a moment. But he quickly calmed
down and sealed the document bag again as usual.
"Grandpa, I trust Vivian. I will investigate into this matter personally." He said firmly.
The stirring words did not ease the tension in Vivian's heart at all. Because of his tone, she knew the
seriousness of the situation from his word. This document was important.
"William! I think you are crazy!" Mr. Hamilton slapped the table fiercely in anger.
William's eyes swept over the group of people in the room.
He saw Mr. Hamilton was angry, his father looked serious, his younger brother was frowning and a bit
annoyed, and his wife was trying hard to calm herself down but still could not hide her nervousness.
William walked to Vivian and held her hand. "Is everything okay? I'm sorry I am late."
"William!" Mr. Hamilton yelled.
William lowered his eyes, "Grandpa, the Lu family does not rely on those vain things, but on excellent
descendants."
"The impact of this thing can be big or small. I will take care of it. I will find out who is behind it and I will
make him pay for it!" William's figure was extraordinarily tall at this moment.
Mr. Hamilton's eyes were hale and hearty with a bit of coldness. And his lips pursed with a little white.
William did not care about his expression, got up, and took Vivian away.
Mr. Hamilton's face was gloomy.
Oven got up and stretched his arms. "Grandpa, William is right. You are old, so you should do what you
should do as soon as possible. Although William is not in J city, he will never let you feel disappointed
in taking up the responsibility of the Lu family. It is getting late, let us go to bed.”
Mr. Hamilton's face was even uglier, and he looked at Oven with a cool look like a dead man, which
made Oven's heart slightly shocked.
But he was used to his temper, so his face did not change at all. He quickly got up and walked away.
"Edward, you should search for Pine Garden carefully. From today onwards, no one is allowed to visit
her." Mr. Hamilton said loudly.
"Dad, you are going to ..." William’s father stared at him with wide eyes.
Mr. Hamilton put his hands behind his back, "Didn't he say he wanted to clear the woman's name? So Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
before his so-called truth is found, Vivian must be closely guarded. I'd like to see how capable this brat
really is."
William’s father pondered for a while and did not know what came to his mind, but he soon acquiesced
to Mr. Hamilton's approach in silence.
And at this time, Vivian had been brought to Pine Garden by William.
"William ..." Vivian felt like a cold sweat all over her body, so when the wind was blowing, her whole
body was cold.
William shook his head and held her even tighter, "It is very late, and it is too cold outside, you should
go back to rest."
"William, I know you believe me, but now I also want to help you. There is something fishy about this
matter, I just thought of something, so I must tell you." Vivian anxiously grabbed William's arm.
William looked at her suspiciously.
Then she said, "There was another person besides me who had been to Mr. Hamilton’s study today.”
William narrowed his eyes, and his expression became a little cold.
"It ... is Oven! And he has also come to the Pine Garden." Vivian hesitated for a second and then told
what happened in the front yard in the afternoon.
William looked stunned and uncertain, and it could not tell whether he believed it or not.
Vivian's expression was apprehensive, and she looked at William with a somewhat excited expression.
She just suspected and was not sure whether it was Oven or not. But since Mr. Hamilton had checked
her place, it meant that their people had been checked and excluded from suspicion.
So Oven's suspicion became even bigger.
Vivian's eyes were full of hope. She knew Oven was his brother, and the two were very close. She did
not know how much she weighed in his heart, but she had to gamble once.
William's eyes were darkened and she couldn't tell what he was thinking.
Vivian's heart gradually sank.
Finally, when the bright light in her eyes was about to disappear, William spoke. "Were there other
people there?" William said in a warm tone.
Vivian gave an awkward smile, and the corners of her mouth were a little ugly, "You don't believe it,
right?"
Before William said anything, she added, "No, there was no one else there, only me, so my words can
not be proven." She almost thought he was certain that she was lying.
William felt depressed as he hugged her in his arms, "I believe you, don't be anxious and don't be
afraid."
He kissed her forehead, "Wait for me, I will definitely give you justice."
"William..." she pulled at the corner of his coat.
William’s expression was gentle, "Go to sleep, the baby also needs to rest."
Vivian let him go and could only watch him leave.
The room was silent, and the cold made her shiver a little. Lying in bed, she could not fall asleep.
A sleepless night.
In order to protect privacy, there was monitoring in the Old House, but there were many dead ends. But
the place Vivian said was in front of the main building, so there should be some.
However, the most important thing right now was to find the remaining half of the document.
The Lu family had many enemies, but who would try to bring down the Lu family intentionally?
When he was waiting for people to assemble the monitoring videos, he went to Mr. Hamilton's study.
"Edward said you were looking for surveillance?" Mr. Hamilton took a sip of tea.
In the middle of the night, he drank tea to sober his mind, so it seemed that he made up his mind to be
deadly consumed.
William responded, "Vivian said there were some doubtful points. And although the study does not
have monitor, people who enter and exit the main building still could be found."
Mr. Hamilton stopped before he said, "Don't waste you time. All monitors were under inspection and
maintenance this afternoon, so they were off."
William looked up suddenly, "Grandpa, really?"
"William, you are presumptuous! Do you suspect me of making fun of the Lu family's fortune?" Mr.
Hamilton became angry and fierce.
William narrowed his eyes, "I just wonder if grandpa is trying to protect someone?"
Mr. Hamilton's pupils shrank, but his expression remained unchanged.
But that momentary change was still caught by William’s eyes.
Sure enough, he guessed right!
