God Of War Dad

Pupil Wolf’s eye technique was renowned for its use in interrogation and lie detection! It had never failed back when he was in the military!

Sean glanced down at Old Mr. Lewis and asked, “What is your name?”

“Tim Lewis.”

When Old Mr. Lewis answered the question, only his lips moved, no expression on his face. At first glance, he looked like a robot.

Sean continued, “What is my name?”

“Sean Mason.”

“And my father?”

“Parker Mason.”

“When did you last see Parker Mason?”

The advantage of the eye technique in hypnosis was that the answer obtained was always the truth, extracted from the subconscious of the hypnotized person. The disadvantage, however…

The questioner had to ask questions step by step, continually pressing on. You could never jump to the question you really wanted to ask.

For instance!

If Old Mr. Lewis was fully conscious, Sean could directly ask him, “What do you know about that incident five years ago?”

One question could make Old Mr. Lewis spill everything he knew.

Efficient!

But not necessarily accurate!

After all!

It’s hard to predict human minds. When it came to Old Mr. Lewis’s own interests and those of the Lewis family, he would undoubtedly weigh in his heart what could be said and what couldn’t, and his answers would be influenced!

That was why Sean didn’t hesitate and had Pupil Wolf use the eye technique on Old Mr. Lewis right away!

He just wanted to hear the truth!

After all, there was plenty of time. He could guide the process slowly, ask slowly.

“Five years ago.”

Without any hesitation, Old Mr. Lewis blurted out, “When your grandfather Williams Mason suddenly fell seriously ill and was hospitalized, I visited him at the hospital. In the hospital corridor, I ran into Parker Mason.”

A flutter in Sean’s heart prompted him to press on, “Did you talk?”

“We did.”

“What did you talk about?”

“I asked him about Williams Mason’s condition. He said it wasn’t good. The hospital had issued a critical condition notice. Chances were slim. Three days later, Williams Mason died.”

“Did you see Williams Mason at the hospital?”

“I saw him only from a distance at the door of his ward. At the time, Williams Mason was in a coma, closely guarded by the Mason family. Outsiders couldn’t get close.”

From the time his grandfather Williams Mason was hospitalized to his passing away, there was only a brief week. Sean had been at his bedside the entire time, so he knew the situation very well.

Indeed, outsiders couldn’t get in.

Remembering the scene of Williams Mason critically ill, Sean’s face suddenly darkened. After a moment, he continued to ask, “Is Parker Mason still alive?”

“I don’t know.”

Old Mr. Lewis said, “After that time, I never saw Parker Mason again.”

“After Williams Mason’s death, the old lady took control of the Mason family, and purged the Mason family members who were loyal to Williams Mason. Later, you were arrested and imprisoned, your mother Nicola Wright died kneeling in front of the Mason Manor, and Parker Mason also disappeared, as if he evaporated from the earth.”

“The rumor has it that he was likely secretly executed by the old lady.”

“But!”

“I think it’s more likely that Parker Mason escaped.”

Hearing this, Sean’s face abruptly changed.

He immediately asked, “Why?”

Old Mr. Lewis said, “Because Williams Mason’s death was odd. His true cause of death should not have been a severe illness, but intentional murder.”

As he was under the influence of the eye technique hypnosis, these words came out of Old Mr. Lewis’ mouth in a casual, serene tone without any waves.

However!

When it reached Sean’s ears, it stirred an indescribable storm in his heart!

His grandfather did not die from illness!

It was murder!

Williams Mason’s illness came just so out of nowhere, and his death was pretty unexpected. As for his real cause of death, both Sean and Parker Mason had doubts at the time but couldn’t find any evidence, so they could only silently bear it in their hearts!

Sean never dreamed that he could get such an answer from Old Mr. Lewis!

Obviously!

Old Mr. Lewis must know something!

So!

Sean impatiently pressed on, “What was so strange?”

“The strange thing is, before Williams Mason suddenly fell ill, he seemed to have anticipated in advance that his time was limited.”

Old Mr. Lewis said in a flat tone, “About a month before Williams Mason fell ill, I sought his advice due to some troubles in my cultivation.”

“He looked troubled at that time.”

“And!”

“Before I left, he hinted, intentionally or not, that if anything happened to him, I should try to help, protect you and your mother if I could do that without harming the interests of the Lewis family.”

Sean’s heart pounded!

Was Grandfather worried about us before the incident?

In the Mason family!

Besides his parents, Grandfather Williams Mason was the person who loved Sean the most. Otherwise, given the old lady’s disdain, contempt, and hatred for Nicola Wright and Sean, Sean couldn’t have peacefully been the young master of the Mason family for twenty-one years until the incident five years ago!

To put it bluntly, Williams Mason was Sean’s guardian angel!

Suppressing the sorrow and excitement in his heart, Sean asked, “What did you do when the old lady attacked our family?”

“I did nothing.”

Old Mr. Lewis said, “At that time, when the Hilshire incident occurred, the old lady purged dissenters with a ruthless hand, reorganized the Mason family, and killed many people.”

“I saw it all but was powerless.”

“I was cowardly, weak, useless. I was afraid that I and the Lewis family would be implicated. Nicola Wright knelt outside the Mason Manor for three days and three nights, and I didn’t even have the courage to persuade her to leave.”

“I failed Williams Mason, betraying his trust in me.”

“I’m not worth it…”

When he said these words, Old Mr. Lewis’s usually calm voice suddenly became choked up, and his voice started to tremble slightly.

It wasn’t that he broke free from the control of the eye technique and regained his senses, but rather, it was guilt and remorse from his heart.

After all!

Williams Mason had been kind to him, his debt was something he could never pay back!

This indirectly proved that he did intend to help at the time but was simply unable to, deterred by the old lady’s ruthless tactics!

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to help!

But he didn’t dare!

Sean’s gaze was cold, chillingly so!

However!

He didn’t vent his anger on Old Mr. Lewis. In such a situation, it was only right if they didn’t help. The fact that Old Mr. Lewis didn’t help the old lady was already being helpful!

After a pause, Old Mr. Lewis continued, “Williams Mason must have sensed the danger since he arranged his affairs in advance.”

“So I think.”

“Since he could hint to me a month in advance, Parker Mason, as his son, must know more than I do. It’s impossible that he didn’t have any defenses, allowing the old lady to do whatever she wanted to him.”

“With Parker Mason’s strength at the time, nearing the late stage of dark energy, he should have been able to protect himself given that he was on guard.”

These were all Old Mr. Lewis’s speculations.

But they sounded reasonable!

Sean took a deep breath, couldn’t help but think, “If Father is really still alive, where could he be?”

“Where has he been these five years?”ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

I must find out where my father is as soon as possible!

“Boss.”

At this point, Pupil Wolf, who was standing nearby, suddenly spoke up, “Considering his age, he might not last much longer under such self-confinement.”

“It’s about time.”

Being under the control of the eye technique for a long time is something most people can’t handle. It could even be deadly.

Sean nodded, gathered his thoughts, and asked in a deep voice, “One last question.”

“Who murdered my grandfather?”
