The meaning of his grandfather’s words staggered Fitz, and his body went numb.
It took more than half a minute before he finally recovered.
On the other end of the phone, Lord Thorne noticed that his grandson hadn’t responded, “Fitz, are you listening to me?”
Fitz just reacted and blurted out, “I’m listening, grandpa, My mom and Zara are back!? Really!?”
“Yeah!” Lord Thorne said solemnly, “Would I joke with you about this kind of thing? Come back soon!”
Fitz hurriedly said, “Yes grandpa, I will head back now!”
After speaking, he immediately hung up his phone and spoke to his assistant, “Stay here and continue to coordinate with the
people on this project.
I have something I have to take care of.”
He then quickly ran out to his car.
While sitting in his car, Fitz’s hand gripped the key in the ignition, but at this moment he suddenly hesitated.
He sat there, frozen in place for a short period of time, his mind a chaotic mess of confusion and contradiction.
He didn’t know whether his mother and sister had returned in good health, and whether their return was good or bad.
He’d always had a very good relationship with his mother and sister, and his feelings ranged from sour to excitement, however,
there was another uncontrollable idea in his mind.
That thought was telling him, “Fitz! It’s definitely not a good thing for your mother and sister to come back! Think about your
grandpa, that old guy is addicted to money and power, the only reason why he’s been friendly with you and your father and
showed weakness is that he is now infamous and guilty.”
“If your mother and sister suddenly come back safe and sound like a normal person, then the world’s contempt for your
grandfather will naturally be eased! After all, there is a big difference between people who are dead and people who are alive!”
“Once the two of them return safely, the people’s hatred and anger towards your grandpa will naturally dissipate significantly, and
gradually over time it will be completely forgotten!”
“In which case, your grandfather will be able to return to the public’s view and restore his position as the Banks Family Patriarch.
When that happens, you and your father will be abandoned by him again!”
“Besides, he will no longer harbor guilt towards you and your dad! And you’ll both lose all the advantages that gave you!”
“What’s more, since your mother and sister escaped from your grandfather’s clutches, they will certainly never forgive your
grandfather in their life.
They may even fall out with your grandfather openly or even become enemies.”
“What will you do then? Your grandfather will no longer feel guilty about you, but your mother and sister will regard him as an
enemy, and will even have all kinds of confrontation with him, or publicly attack him.
At that time, you will be implicated!”
“No one will pass on the position of Patriarch to the enemy’s son, or the enemy’s brother...” Thinking of this, Fitz suddenly
became upset!
At this moment, his inner balance shifted, and he subconsciously took out his mobile phone and called Lord Banks, who was
anxiously looking for Zayne’s whereabouts.
Lord Banks was upset at this time.
His eldest son, Zayne, had been missing for more than 12 hours since this morning.
Within these 12 hours, he hadn’t found any valuable clues.
Zayne, just like his younger brother James, seemed to evaporate directly from the world.
