Apart from himself, the people who were most afraid of having their identity exposed were Fletcher and the Thomas family. Verak knew very little about Elizabeth's background. Without knowing what Elizabeth would do if she became suspicious of him, he could only tell the truth to Fletcher.
Only Letcher and the others can minimize the risk.
The car sped back to the Thomas family mansion.
"Go to bed early." Verak casually told Daniel, got out of the car and quickly entered the hall. At this time, the Thomas family was enjoying dinner in the hall, with Fletcher standing by.
"Father, mother..." Verak glanced at the servants next to him and said, "I have something to tell you."
"Are you anxious?" Carmine asked, putting down the tableware.
"I'm very anxious." Verak knew clearly that Carmine was actually asking him whether the matter he encountered was difficult or not.
"You guys get out first." Carmine ordered the servants to leave.
After the servants left, the atmosphere in the restaurant suddenly dropped to freezing point. Thomas and his family stopped eating their dinner and stared at Verak with a serious and cold look.
"Say." Carmine said.
"I might...be recognized." Verak was also carefully checking Carmine's expression as he said it.
Hearing this, Mrs. Mela, Kellerman, and Julia all covered their mouths and shouted softly. Carmine's face became even more serious: "Speak carefully."
Verak told what happened without any concealment.
"I did tell him about my brother and Elizabeth before." Kellerman said, "I didn't expect that today would be such an unfortunate coincidence, and we would bump into each other directly..."
"Why didn't you tell me?" Carmine stared at Verak and asked Kellerman at the same time.
"This is my brother's private matter. He doesn't want others to know..." Kellerman took the initiative to attract fire and explained the reason.
Carmine maintained restraint, but his tone became more severe: "But you told him. He knows nothing and understands nothing. What's the use of telling him? Did he know that he would meet Elizabeth? He knew that he had
Isn’t it necessary to avoid Elizabeth?”
"This matter is not Kellerman's fault." Mrs. Mela defended Kellerman.
"Do you understand what is involved in such an important thing?" Carmine scolded.
They told Verak that the cause of Chris's death was that he died in bed while having sex with a female singer, so when Carmine was angrily denounced, he stopped talking at the right time and did not expose the truth.
Of course, they don't know that Verak actually knows everything.
"Julia, please go upstairs and rest first." Carmine sent Julia away who had nothing to do with this matter and could not play any role. "Kellerman, what is going on between Elizabeth and Chris?"
Specific contact?”
"I really don't know other than those things." Kellerman gradually realized the seriousness of the problem and his voice became more choked up. "Chris won't share everything with me, but now it seems that their relationship is definitely not as good as mine."
It’s as simple as you think.”
"Verak." Carmine looked at Verak, "Tell me what you think of Elizabeth."
Verak did not expect that Carmine would ask his opinion, but this was something that no one expected. He was the only one who had contact with Elizabeth and had the best say: "I think... between Elizabeth and Mr. Chris
They should be very close, and they may even have been lovers before, otherwise it would be impossible to recognize that I am not Mr. Chris just after having dinner a few times."
"When you finally left, did you feel that Elizabeth would take the initiative to continue to have contact with you?"
"It's hard for me to say this." Verak said truthfully about his feelings, "I deliberately stayed at the door for a while, and she did chase me. It can be seen that she had many questions to ask me. But when I finally left
, she didn’t keep up.”
"All arrangements for you will be terminated tomorrow. You don't have to go to work. During this period, you will continue to stay at home and don't go anywhere." For the sake of safety, Carmine decided to keep Verak at home first to avoid contact with him.
Contact anyone.
"...Understood, Mr. Carmine." Verak's mood was complicated.
Verak is not sure how long he will stay at home. In short, any longer time will seriously affect other arrangements and slow down his progress. But this is also the negative impact that he will inevitably bear after seeking help from the Thomas family.
"Fletcher, now go thoroughly investigate the relationship between Chris and Elizabeth. You know what kind of information I need, so be sure to find out." Carmine began to make arrangements.
"Okay, Mr. Carmine." Fletcher bowed slightly and glared at Verak before leaving.
That look seemed to kill Verak.
Verak knew that he had no good luck in the future. Because Verak did not tell him about Chris and Elizabeth, because Verak made his own decision and went to the charity dinner, and for many reasons that no one cared about before.
Regardless of whether he had acquiesced to Verak before or not, Fletcher would punish him.
"Verak." Carmine pointed to Verak again, "Colin was Chris's best friend during his lifetime. They have known each other since they were children. He may know more than Kellerman. You have gone out so many times, and there is no
Did you mention anything about Elizabeth?"
"I didn't mention it," Verak replied.
"Tomorrow you ask Colin to come home on the pretext that you want to travel, and I want to see him." Carmine said.
"Understood, Mr. Carmine." Verak responded.
The Thomas family is much more sensitive to this matter than Verak. In their view, if exposed, Verak will take a despicable life and die. However, they cannot accept that the huge Thomas family faces any danger.
"You should go and rest, I will take care of this matter." Carmine stood up, obviously no longer interested in eating.
"I'm sorry about this. If I hadn't gone to the charity gala, this wouldn't have happened..." Verak apologized to Carmine.
Carmine ignored Verak, took the clothes and went straight out the door.
Verak knows very well that even if this matter can be properly handled by the Thomas family, I am afraid that his future actions will be severely restricted. They will greatly weaken their trust in him and think that it is safest to leave him at home.
And this will also worsen Carmine's new views.
That is, if Verak lives for one more minute, the Thomas family will have to bear the danger for one more minute.
Because of this incident, they may consider getting rid of Verak as soon as possible, and then pretend to be Chris's death, staggering the time of Chris's death to eliminate the government's suspicion.
Verak regretted what happened tonight, but the matter has come to this, and there is no point in regretting it. Elizabeth's discovery had a great impact, and the Thomas family had an equally great impact after learning about it. All he can do now is to speed up
