...
A few days later, news of Conrad's death came back.
In the hall of the villa that originally belonged to Conrad, Conrad's three sons and three grandsons were all present.
Only the married daughters and granddaughters are not here.
As Conrad's confidant, Ye Yunhen was also present.
"Is the information accurate?" asked the older middle-aged man standing nearby.
The person who brought the message nodded and said, "We have already compared the DHA and confirmed that the other party is indeed the head of the family."
Upon hearing this, no one present showed any sadness.
Instead, everyone fell silent.
They both have plans for each other.
Only Blake was immersed in grief and disbelief.
"How could this be! Why would an avalanche happen out of nowhere?"
"Also, why did Grandpa go there?"
As soon as the question was raised, everyone's eyes turned to Ye Yunhen, Conrad's confidant.
Logically speaking, Conrad wouldn't have traveled such a journey alone.
Well, one's trusted confidants must follow suit.
Ye Yunhen said calmly, "I asked the family head for leave some time ago, and I don't know the family head's schedule after that. If you don't believe me, you can check my whereabouts."
He left after Conrad left, although he returned later.
This also greatly increases the probability of removing him from the list of suspicious individuals.
The crowd remained silent, clearly pondering the truth of Ye Yunhen's words.
Finally, Rayleigh, the eldest son, spoke up, "Although I don't know what Father went to the Huazhong University of Science and Technology Research Institute for, I know that Father and the institute have had a cooperative relationship for many years."
Upon hearing this, everyone's attention shifted from Ye Yunhen to Lei Li.
Fearing that people might misunderstand, he explained, "Don't misunderstand. The reason I know these things is because I've taken on some things for my father over the years, and that's how I found out."
"As for the avalanche that Ak mentioned, the government has concluded that it was caused by an explosion at the research institute, which is most likely an accident."
The research institute is quite important in R City, so such a major accident is naturally taken very seriously.
Therefore, the entire city mobilized to deal with the incident within days of it occurring.
Otherwise, news of my father's death wouldn't have come back so quickly.
“Since the government has said so, then there’s no problem,” Sandy Att, the second son, said slowly.
"The next step is to send someone to bring my father's body back as soon as possible so that we can give him a proper farewell."
Rayleigh nodded in agreement upon hearing his second brother's words.
.
Blake returned to his small courtyard, dejected and distraught.
Ye Mohan and Gong Yixue, who were playing chess in the courtyard, exchanged a glance upon seeing this and immediately guessed what was going on.
However, this speed is indeed very fast.
It was good that the news of her death came before it even ended.
But that's good, it saves them time.
"Brother Blake, what's wrong with you?"
Only then did Blake notice the two men's presence and realize that he had invited them.
"I'm fine, it's my grandpa who's in trouble."
Gong Yixue feigned ignorance and asked, "Patriarch Ate? What happened to him?"
"Dead."
Gong Yixue said, "I'm sorry."
Blake shook his head. "It's alright, you don't know anything about it anyway."
Gong Yixue felt slightly guilty.
After all, Blake wasn't a bad person at heart.
This must have been very painful for him.
"Please accept my condolences," Gong Yixue said politely.
