Chapter 1815
"What do you mean?"
Wisdom made every effort to evade Zion's gaze. Even though he had always been strong and calm, anyone could tell that he was nervous just by how he kept drinking water regularly.
Zion approached Wisdom slowly. He stared at Wisdom and grabbed the cup from him. Then, he looked Wisdom in the eyes and questioned, "What were you thinking when you did that? Are you familiar with the thief of the kidney source?"
"Yes."
Wisdom finally looked at Zion.
His eyes were sad and apologetic, but he didn't try to hide it any longer.
"Why? Give me a reason."
He believe that Wisdom was not a terrorist, and he was certain that Wisdom would never assist others in harming his own family.
Wisdom was his older sibling. He had accomplished a great deal for his younger siblings, as well as for Zion over the years. Thus, Zion knew Wisdom like the back of his hand.
After all, no one could keep up a perfect disguise for this long. Wisdom was part of the Ye family, and everyone could tell how affectionate he was towards the members of the Ye family. In fact, Zion would be the first to dismiss claims that Wisdom collaborated with terrorists if they arose. However, he was in dire need of an explanation right now.
Wisdom adjusted his glasses and muttered softly, "I owe her my life, and I had to repay her. I know I shouldn't involve you and Evangeline in this issue. However, she insisted on my help, so I couldn't
do anything."
Zion didn't say anything else. He put the cup on the table and got up to leave.
Wisdom suddenly felt a little uneasy.
"Zion, you can scold me or hit me. What are you trying to tell me by not saying anything?" "Nothing. I'm going to see Evangeline."
Zion didn't turn around or even look behind. Instead, he just went out like that. However, if someone looked at him carefully, they could tell that he was quivering.
Wisdom wanted to chase after him. However, he realised that was in no position to do so.
Zion walked out of Wisdom's office and leaned against the corridor wall. He immediately felt as if he had lost all of his strength. He would have collapsed in front of Wisdom if he hadn't held on to his will just now.
He couldn't accept nor face this truth!
What should he say once he met Evangeline?
Was he supposed to tell her that the kidney had been stolen? Furthermore, her brother was one of the accomplices!
Zion was the one who decided to get Evangeline the transplant operation. He even planned to acquire kidney resources from the Dark Mantle to help her recover. He did his best to plot everything, but he did not anticipate this outcome.
His mind was completely messed up, and he had mixed emotions. He slid onto the chair and stared blankly in one direction, yet he was clutching a strand of long hair in his palm.
He had discovered it on Wisdom's shoulder and took it with him.
What was the identity of the other party? He was hoping to prove it with this strand of hair, but he was nervous.
He had no idea what he was terrified of. However, it made him nervous and uneasy.
He gathered his strength after sitting outside for a long time. Then, he returned to his room with the strand of hair in his hand.
He actually had a lot of equipment here because of his job.
He fiddled with the strand of hair for some time before the DNA sequence was generated. He double- checked the corresponding DNA against the computer data and was taken aback when he saw the information being displayed.
It turned out that the other party was Trevor Malthus' daughter, Maren Malthus.
Zion couldn't help but recall the last mission in which he had inadvertently hurt the hostage.
Someone had touched his gun at the time. Moreover, he and Maren's brother, Creed Malthus, were in the same team.
Creed has previously eluded Zion's suspicions. After all, they had been living together for so long. Also, they had gone through all of life's ups and downs. They were comrades who were willing to put their lives on the line for each other on the battlefield. But how could something like this occur?
But now that Maren had stolen the kidney, Zion couldn't help but overthink everything.
He frowned slightly. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
In fact, Trevor had always kept a low profile.
He had been working in the same position for a few years and had handled things perfectly. Besides, Carlson still favoured him.
Anyone would be suspicious if there was a spy in the military region. However, Trevor was the least suspicious one.
However, now that his son and daughter were involved with Zion, Zion had no choice but to think about it seriously.
Zion got off the computer but retained the hair sample. He was ready to leave when he noticed Wisdom hammering on the door.
He was stunned.
He didn't know how to deal with Wisdom. Hence, he just stared at him and remained silent.
Wisdom's lips curved into a bitter grin.
He whispered, "Let's find a place to talk."
"Okay."
In fact, Zion had always convinced himself that he didn’t have to worry about it, but he couldn't convince his heart to do so.
He could accept it if anyone else had done it. However, the culprit was a member of the Ye family, and he was the brother whom Zion had grown up with. Hence, he couldn't accept the truth.
Wisdom had already removed his white coat and replaced it with a casual outfit. He looked youthful and attractive.
Zion trailed close behind him. He was a little depressed as a result of this incident. Thus, he excused a chilly and dominating aura.
As they walked along the corridor, they immediately attracted a lot of attention.
"Oh my god, are they twins? They look so alike."
"One of them is so cold, but the other is so cheerful. It's really eye-catching. I really want to get to know them!
Several nurses and women were enthralled by them, but Wisdom and Zion didn't give much thought to them. They walked out of the hospital without giving them a second glance.
Next to the hospital was a coffee shop. Wisdom brought Zion there and requested a private room before walking up.
Zion didn't say a word throughout the entire
trip.
Wisdom ordered two cups of coffee after entering the private room. Then, he asked the waiter to leave while he locked the door.
Zion stood there silently watching all that was going on. He stirred his coffee and lost all desire to drink it. Then, he looked around but couldn't think of anything to say.
The atmosphere was a little awkward and unpleasant.
When Wisdom returned to the table, he noticed Zion staring at the coffee cup as if he had nothing to ask. However, his indifferent demeanour made him uneasy.
"Do you hate me now?"
"Well, not really."
Zion didn't raise his head.
"You are my brother and my family. I can hate anyone, but I can't hate you."
Wisdom paused for a moment, and then he said with a wry smile, "Don't you hate me? What would you do if someone else did this today?"
"I ll kill them."
Zion raised his head, and his eyes were gleaming with murderous
determination. Hence, Wisdom could tell he wasn't joking upon noticing his fierce eyes.
It was also at this moment that Zion realised his feelings for Evangeline.
He didn't know when he had fallen in love with her. Fortunately, it was not too late, but what should he do in this situation?
