Avenger's coming back

Chapter 123 Eric's Guess

"How do you deal with that newspaper?" Eric asked Ellison suddenly as he looked up at him.

"Ahem!" Ellison suddenly coughed unnaturally, and then returned to normal. "As you said, it's banned." Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

"Yes." Eric answered and put the documents in his hand on the desk. With a sneer in his black eyes, he said, "It shouldn't be Claire only to take part in this matter."

"Is there anyone else?" Lily asked doubtfully.

Hearing this, Eric turned to look at Lily and asked, "If you are the owner of that newspaper, will you release the same news for two days in a row, and occupy such an important position?"

Hearing that, Lily frowned, thought it over and then shook her head.

"You won't, will you? We are not particularly famous people, there is no need to do so much trouble." Eric continued to analyze, "Obviously, there must be someone else involved in this matter. And today's headline is either 'someone' who bought it with money, or someone must have a certain power. Otherwise, the same kind of news would be published for two days in a row. The fans would not only be tired of it, but also would not buy it. Who would be willing to do such a bad business?"

His analysis were right. Lily nodded and asked, "But who is he?"

"Who do you think is more likely?" Eric turned his head to look at her again.

Looking into his eyes, Lily was also confused. But it was hard for her to guess.

The interaction between the two ignored the existence of Ellison at all, and he was relieved to see that they didn't pay attention to him at all. Eric was so smart. He guessed that there was someone else.

"Did you find anyone else in the investigation?" Eric suddenly turned to Ellison and asked.

Ellison was stunned by his sudden glance and paused for a while. But he immediately calmed himself down and said, "It is highly possible, but I haven't found any evidence yet. The disk is the disk at the party that day. Except for Claire, I haven't found anyone else suspicious."

"Really?" Obviously, Eric didn't believe that.

Only two words made Ellison felt bad. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind. An almost invisible smile appeared on his lips.

"Eric, according to your speculation, who else would pay for it? And the intention is obvious. He wants to smear you and Lily, making your reputation worse. He is probably your common enemy." What he meant was quite clear.

"You mean Frank?" Eric turned to look at him.

"Or what?" Ellison threw up his hands and threw the question at him naturally.

Eric frowned and tried to figure out what he meant.

"Think about it." Seeing that he didn't say a word, Ellison began to analyze the situation. "If your reputation is ruined, who will benefit most? It's such a simple question. Don't you know? What's more, under the condition of competing with AF Company."

Eric nodded his head, as if he had a point. Only the two of them could do such a stupid thing.

It was not until Ellison saw Eric believe it that he felt relieved. It was almost like Noble's sensitivity to the problem.

Ellison suddenly felt sad. He was clearly the second. But among the three brothers, he was at the bottom of the food chain. In some aspects, he had completely under their feet.

"By the way..." Abruptly spoke Eric, looking at Ellison.

"What's wrong?" Hearing his words, Ellison suddenly got nervous. As expected, he couldn't do anything wrong!

Seeing his reaction, Eric was confused and asked, "Why are you so nervous?"

"You talked like that, and my heart trembled with nervousness. How could I not be nervous?" Ellison said half jokingly.

Ignoring his tease, Eric continued, "How is the investigation on AF going?"

Hearing this question, Ellison was not as nervous as before. He replied indifferently, "It's going too slowly. Hailey hasn't come back these days. It said that it's difficult to obtain evidence. After all, it's an international company and it's listed abroad. We need time to investigate."

"We have to finish it as soon as possible. It's getting closer and closer to the bidding. If we can't find any evidence before the bidding, we have no choice but to watch Angus making money and then going back to his country." Said Eric.

"I trust Hailey. Although she is a shrewish woman." Speaking of Hailey, a touch of embarrassment flashed across Ellison's face.

"Yes." Eric nodded. Since she was the one he had chosen, he should trust him.

As for the conversation between the two people, Lily did not interrupt. She just listened quietly and frowned. Nobody knew what she was thinking about.

"Girl." Eric suddenly turned to her and asked, "What are you going to do with this matter?"

"I haven't decided yet." Lily answered honestly. She hadn't thought about it yet. Claire was so stubborn, but… She wouldn't let her go so easily.

"Lily, pay more attention to Lucia these days. It seems that Lucia will take more actions." "She seems to have been looking for something, and it seems to be on your mother, so she constantly makes trouble for your mother in the dark. However, because your mother has been protected too well by Kerr, she has never had the chance to contact her."

"What is she looking for?" Lily asked with a frown.

"I don't know that." Ellison shrugged his shoulders and said, "I investigate her because she has something to do with all the things that have happened to you. I didn't expect that she even didn't want to let go of her mother."

Lily smiled coldly. No wonder in her previous life, she forced her mother so much and even destroyed her. But what was she looking for? What was so important that made her do anything?

"You can ask aunt Tina sometime to see if she has something special that Lucia wants." Eric said to her.

Lily nodded. "I'll find an opportunity to ask."

Suddenly, there was a flash of impatience in Eric's dark eyes. He put the material in a paper bag and put it in front of Ellison. "Brother, ask someone to give this material to Lucia anonymously."

Ellison raised his eyebrows and smiled. "Are you drawing a snake out of its hole?"

"No, I won't." Eric said with a sneer, "I just want them to know that their behaviors are watched by someone, they will certainly get confused. In this case, they will have to stop all their actions and wait

for the time to change. At least, they will not take any action for a long time, or they will quicken their actions before others get the evidence."

Ellison understood what he meant. He couldn't help admiring him. It was completely a psychological tactic!

Hearing what he said, Lily looked at him differently. His thinking was not like a child's thinking at all. She would be ashamed of herself, a grown-up!

In fact, she somewhat agreed with his behavior, so she didn't say anything against it.

"Besides, ask someone to watch them secretly." Eric said to Ellison again.

"Eric, do you think I'm a helper?" Ellison resumed his carefree manner as usual.

Eric glanced at him, "This is fate. You are destined to be taught by brother and me."

"Hey, at least you should call me brother, OK? How can I have a brother like you?" Ellison shouted with dissatisfaction.

"Can you beat me?" Eric raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you think you can beat Noble?"

His words hit the nail on the head. In terms of strength, he couldn't beat any of them. So if he failed, he was doomed to be exploited. It had nothing to do with age!

So why did he call brother? What's the meaning of this address!

"Well, I don't talk to you." Then he stood up and went on, "I'm going back to the manor with girl. You can handle with the rest."

"Got it. Got it. Let's go." Ellison waved his hand impatiently and said, "I'm worried to look at you. How could you ask me, as your brother, to be your helper?"

But Eric didn't want to waste his time on him. He threw the key to him and said, "Give me another key. This car is too eye-catching."

"Do you know how many people want my car? How could you say that?" Ellison glanced at him scornfully. "It's a luxury car with big license plate. A lot of girls follow it immediately. In this way, you don't have to accost them. You are so..."

"I don't need it." Eric interrupted him, "Give me a key to another car."

Ellison rolled his eyes at him and lifted his chin, hinting him to look in the hallway. He said, "The keys of all the cars are in it, and you can take whichever you like."

"Thanks." After saying that, he took Lily's hand and went out.

Compared with his casual greeting, Lily said goodbye to Ellison politely, "Brother, thank you."

"We are a family. You are welcome." He replied.

Among the pile of car keys, Eric picked one up casually, and led Lily out.

"Eric, I don't think you should treat second brother in this way. Look, he is so nice to us. He helped us so much." Lily said, tilting her head.

Eric smiled. He stretched out his hand and rubbed her hair. "He is always like this, looking for trouble. If one day you really don't ask him for help, he will feel uncomfortable. Do you know the situation when Hailey was in his house last time? He couldn't resist it, but he has no complaints in his heart and is willing to be like this."

Hearing this and thinking of the situation of that day, Lily couldn't help but nod her head. A person like Ellison was really suitable to find someone like Hailey.
