Chapter 615 Isnt She Rather Special?
Chapter 615 Isnt She Rather Special?
"Me?" Davis stood up and neared Tia Alstreim under the gaze of her father.
He adjusted up to her height and grinned as he sent her a Soul Transmission.
"Davis Loret?" Tia Alstreim repeated with a question but in truth, she was letting her father know his name.
"Yes, Davis Loret."
Davis chuckled as he didn’t bother about her actions, "What’s yours?"
There was nothing they could do just by knowing names.
"I am Tia Alstreim."
She worriedly pursed her lips, "Why did you wink at me?"
"It’s because you’re cute..." Davis laughed, not realizing that he rather came off as a creep.
Tia Alstreim suddenly turned around to her father and said, "Father, it’s this person. I am sure of it!"
Davis’s smile froze, wondering what she was sure of... When he lifted his head and looked at Edgar, he found a grin on his face.
"Let’s continue our conversation, shall we?" Edgar Alstreim held his daughter’s hand brought her back to the table under Davis’s confused gaze.
Meanwhile, Davis rapidly had his mind spin to understand what happened just now. This little half-aunt of his just said that it was him and it prompted his grandfather to continue the conversation.
How was she so important that his grandfather listened to her words instead of leaving as he initially decided to? Even if Edgar Alstreim was a doting father, it shouldn’t be at this level, right?
Davis thought hard and arrived at a rather delusional conclusion, based on the million transparent threads he saw wrapping around his half-aunt while using Karma Laws. If it wasn’t his hallucination but rather a real representation of her uniqueness, then her curiosity over them, in the beginning, made sense.
Davis’s eyes imperceptibly flashed in realization!
After all, this half-aunt of his was the one who spotted them first!
Davis cast a glance at his mother and confirmed that she was still following her words of not talking to her father. He felt that he should rather praise her determination and sacrifice.
He returned to the table and sat, his gaze looming over Tia Alstreim in all seriousness, making her flinch.
She became scared and held her father’s sleeves as she bit her lips, but she did not display her fear on her face.
Davis smiled eerily and cast a glance at Edgar Alstreim, intently observing his reactions.
"Isn’t Tia Alstreim rather special?"
Edgar Alstreim’s expression changed for a split second before it disappeared. His reaction then became normal as he smiled, "Yes, shouldn’t you know?"
Davis became taken aback, wondering what he meant.
"After my first daughter went missing, Tia is my only hope left. She is indeed special..." Edgar Alstreim let out a silent sigh.
’Oh, so that’s what it is...’
Claire and Logan believed in his words.
Claire even silently shed tears that her father didn’t think of her as a dead child but a child who is still missing. That meant he still hasn’t lost all hope on her contrary to what she believed after seeing that he had made a new family.
Her father hadn’t still given up on her!
She was so moved that are had the urge to throw herself into her father’s embrace but suppressed her feelings to the best of her ability!
Even Logan felt a little moved.
But Davis wasn’t ill-informed enough to completely buy it even though his words might be true!
But since his maternal grandfather dodged his question and rather gave him an opportunity to ask about the important things, he grasped it.
"Oh... Your first daughter is missing? I heard that she was dead?" Davis displayed curiosity on his face.
Edgar Alstreim revealed a complex expression on his face before he placed his palm on his daughter’s head and shuffled her hair. He gave off a deep sigh and uttered.
"Others may believe that she is dead but I do not!" He angrily spoke, "I believe that her life tablet was intentionally destroyed by someone! And I do rather have a guess of who it is but have no way of proving so!"
"How do you know that someone intentionally destroyed it?" Davis questioned with an interesting expression on his face.
"I found shreds of evidence of tampering on the life tablet and there’s a deleted record of someone entering the Life Tablet Hall. Tell me, if this isn’t enough, then what is?"
"You could have used this to prove that your daughter is still alive but you failed?"
"Hmph! By the time I completed reporting it to one of the family elders, even the other records in the Life Tablet Hall were wiped clean. How can I prove that she is still alive then!?"
Davis blinked, "Well, your first daughter entered a danger zone and didn’t return. Chances are that she is already..."
"Shut up!" Edgar Alstreim angrily bellowed.
Davis smiled and didn’t speak anymore. He was just trying to rile up his grandfather so as to gain more information.
"Haha, don’t be so hasty... I meant to say that your first daughter might’ve escaped the one who tried to plot her death and is living a happy life somewhere else..."
Edgar Alstreim harrumphed, not noticing Davis’s lips imperceptibly curve.
"If that is the case... Then I’m happy for her but the reports at that time clearly stated that she didn’t come out of the danger zone. That danger zone is looked after not only by the Alstreim Family but also by the other two major powers forming the Tripartite Alliance. The Towering Cloud Hall and the Falling Snow Sect."
"It is impossible to change the records unless the three of them work together in tandem, otherwise, it would be exposed and the three Grand Elders of the Tripartite Alliance who are in charge would have to leave their life by taking responsibility."
"If possible, I wanted that danger zone record to be fake but I already confirmed that she truly did not come out of the danger zone."
Edgar Alstreim closed his eyes and sighed.
Claire saw her father suffer and her hand subconsciously moved towards him. She badly wanted to say that she was here, just in front of him. But she then suddenly froze, taking her hand back as she placed it on her thigh.
Edgar Alstreim didn’t notice with his eyes being shut and feeling nostalgic memories about his first daughter but Tia Alstreim did!
She looked at Claire and scrutinized with narrowed eyes.
She then grasped her father’s arms, asserting dominance that she would not hand her father to some random woman. Her blazing eyes seemed to tell that Edgar Alstreim, her father belonged to her and her mother alone!
Claire became flabbergasted but didn’t say anything.
Edgar Alstreim thought that his daughter was consoling him. He became heartened and smiled as he shuffled her blonde hair.
"I even tasked one youth from the family to locate her but it seemed like he died upon a few minutes of entering the danger zone, along with every other youth of the family. I guess you should know about this already since you rather seem to have a way around our information network to gain intelligence..."
Davis froze as he had his grandfather speak.
’That one youth? Which youth? I killed them all!’ Davis inwardly sweated, thinking that he had killed a rather important person to his grandfather.
But the next words he heard, made him relax.
"However, I bet you don’t know this..." Edgar Alstreim chuckled, "That youth I tasked turned out to be a mole from those people who destroyed the life tablet."
"I didn’t know that..."
