Chapter 769  Vincent's Uncle

Day Eighty…

~~*****~~

Nathan couldn't trust Vincent. But if he possessed any information that could help them in searching for Old Man Xu then Nathan would try to gamble.

He left his study room, making his way to the living room where Vincent was waiting for him. Butler Li followed him.

Vincent rose from his seat when he saw Nathan walking toward him.

"Nathan," he called his name. The two met each other's gaze for a long moment. The tension filled the air.

"I didn't expect to see you here. Is it true? Do you know where to find our father?" Nathan asked Vincent directly.

Vincent was taken aback for a moment when Nathan said "Our father". 'Does it mean he is already acknowledging me as his father's son?'

"Yes. I found him. But don't get me wrong. I'm doing this not to help you, but because I made a promise to Jane."

Nathan's expression turned cold upon hearing that. "Stop bothering, Jane. Stay away from her."

"You have no right to tell me what to do," Vincent retorted.

"Shameless. You made her suffer. Now, you still dare to show your face in front of her." Nathan couldn't help but mock Vincent.

"I thought you were interested to know about your father's whereabouts. Instead of lecturing me about what to do, you should be asking me about the old man's condition." Vincent sneered at him.

Nathan swiftly closed their gaps, grabbing Vincent by his collar. "Tell me. Are you involved in my father's abduction incident?"

Vincent looked straight into Nathan's eyes and answered, "No. I have nothing to do with his abduction."

"The one who did it is Monica," Vincent revealed to Nathan.

Nathan was dumbfounded when Vincent revealed Monica's crime. 'What is he up to? Is he already discarding Monica, his number one accomplice?' After a while, Nathan released Vincent from his grasp.

"Go to St. Bernard Hospital. You will find your father there."

"Is that your sole purpose for being here?" Nathan narrowed his eyes at Vincent.

"No. I came here to declare war with you," Vincent said confidently, provoking Nathan. "I'll bring you down. And I will take everything from you and your father," he added.

"I don't care about your child's play. But if you touch my people, I won't back down. I'll fight you, Vincent." Nathan accepted Vincent's challenge.

"We will see if you can protect everyone. You are bound to lose someone, Nate." Vincent gazed at him meaningfully before turning around to leave.

Nathan just watched Vincent's back, having conflicting thoughts in mind. 'I will not let you win, Vincent. I'll protect my people… my loved ones.'

"Dad! Dad! I've finished packing!" Ethan's voice echoed through the house as he descended the stairs with his backpack. "Let's go and see, Mommy!"

Nathan's cold expression softened upon seeing the young boy running in his direction. He couched down and held Ethan's shoulders, saying, "I have a piece of good news for you, son. We've found your grandfather. Let's see him first before flying to your mommy."

"Is that true, Dad?" Ethan's eyes widened in surprise. "How did you find him?"

"Your Uncle Vincent told me. He was the one who found your grandpa." Nathan didn't hide the truth from Ethan.

"Uncle Vincent was here?" Ethan directed his gaze to the door.

"Yes. He dropped by. And he just went out." Nathan informed him.

Without saying a word, Little Ethan dashed outside the house to chase after Vincent. He caught up with him at the entrance gate.

"Uncle Vincent! Wait!" Ethan shouted his name, calling his attention.

When Vincent heard his voice, he stopped on his track and turned to look at Ethan. He blinked his eyes in amusement when he saw the boy running to him. Upon reaching his spot, Ethan immediately pounced on him, hugging him.

"Uncle Vincent! Thank you! Thank you for finding my grandpa!" Ethan expressed his gratitude toward Vincent. He gazed up, smiling tenderly at him.

Vincent could feel the warmth in his heart as he watched this young boy. He could see Ethan's happiness. The boy felt grateful to him.

Vincent smiled back at Ethan, stroking his hair. "No need to mention it, kiddo."

"I owe you this, Uncle. I know you are a good person. I hope you and my grandpa will reconcile. You are welcome to Sparks Mansion. Drop by and visit us anytime."

Vincent was at a loss for words. He didn't have any plans to reconcile with the Sparks Family. His quest for revenge would continue. However, for some unknown reason, Ethan's words touched his heart.

Vincent just smiled at Ethan faintly. "I have to go kiddo."

Ethan just bobbed his head, letting go of Vincent.

When Vincent disappeared, Little Ethan returned to his father. Butler Li had already prepared the car. The father and son duo wasted no more time as they headed to St. Bernard Hospital.

Half an hour later, they reached the hospital. They immediately looked for Old Man Xu. Butler Li was accompanying them. It did not take long before a doctor approached them, guiding them to Old Man Xu.

"The patient has sustained severe injuries from a brutal assault, and we need to closely monitor his condition," the doctor gravely informed Nathan and Ethan.

Nathan's fists clenched involuntarily as he took in the sight of the extensive bruises and violet marks covering Old Man Xu's face and body. A surge of anger and determination welled up within him. 'Whoever did this to my father, I will make that person pay,' he vowed silently.

 Old Man Xu's wound was a testament to the extent of his suffering at the hands of his abductors.

Ethan, sensing the gravity of the situation, turned to his father with concern etched across his face. "Dad, will grandpa be alright?" Old Man Xu's face was marred by the brutality he had endured, rendering him almost unrecognizable.

"Don't worry, son. Your grandpa will be fine. He is a strong man." Nathan turned to Butler Li and said, "Ethan and I will go to Country J. But I will be back soon. I will leave him in your care. Transfer him immediately to our medical facility." Nathan instructed Butler Li.

"Okay, Master Nathan. I will take good care of Chairman Xu. I will update you about his condition." Butler Li reassured him.

"Thank you, Uncle Li!" Ethan grabbed Butler Li's hand, giving him a grateful smile.

"Alright. Shall we go now? Your Uncle Axel is waiting for us." Nathan guided his son as they left the St. Bernard Hospital. He felt relieved now because they finally found his father.

Butler Li was left alone in the ward, watching over Old Man Xu. He shook his head as his eyes scanned the old man's injury.

"So cruel. They did this to an old man." Butler Li mumbled.

Butler Li's train of thought was disrupted when his phone rang. He frowned upon seeing the caller ID. Sensing the urgency of the situation, Butler Li immediately answered the phone.

"Yes, Vincent? What do you need this time?" Butler Li's tone had become serious.

"Uncle… I have to ask you another favor. Make sure that old man doesn't wake up. Continue to sedate him. He learned something he shouldn't disclose to Nathan. Can you help me with this?" Vincent requested.

Butler Li massaged his temples. "Sigh. I'm going to clean that woman's mess again. I told you to end things with her many times but you didn't listen to me, Vincent."

"The authorities have already handled her," Vincent replied.

"Okay. That's good to hear." Butler Li smiled with satisfaction. He never liked Monica.

"By the way, Uncle... this time I'm going all out. There is no turning back. Are you with me in this fight?" Vincent asked his uncle.

"Of course, I'm with you. You have my support. We've waited for so long for this moment. This is for you and your mother. After she died, I vowed to myself that I would protect you and take good care of you. I will never abandon you, Vincent. You are the only family I have left." Butler Li meant his every word.

"Thank you so much, Uncle. You played a great role in this. We are on this together... until we achieve what we want."

Butler Li was the one who was helping Vincent in the shadow. He got all the information needed from him. Butler Li, Vincent's Uncle was his greatest ally... his spy who served the Sparks Family for a long time.
