His Stunning Doctor Wife novel Chapter 431

"Are you Fade Chen?" Old Zhan approached first when he saw Fade.

Fade nodded and said, "Yes, I am Fade!"

There was no expression on his face and his tone was flat. He was gauging Harald Zhan's attitude toward himself.

He didn't know the reason Harald was here. Was it to avenge his son, Lazzaro Zhan's death or for some other reasons?

Old Zhan seemed to have read Fade's mind. He glanced at Fade and said, "Mr. Chen, are you trying to gauge my attitude toward you?"

Since he didn't beat around the bush, Fade didn't want to hide his intentions either. He nodded and said, "Indeed! During the Martial-Arts Contest, Lazzaro and Horatio Zhan colluded with a foreign mercenary group in order to force the warriors of South Hanover City to join their organization. Horatio mentioned that Old Zhan had no idea about this matter. Therefore, I would like to know your opinion on this matter."

Old Zhan smiled slightly and declared, "I really didn't know about this matter, Mr. Chen. Do you believe me?"

Staring at Old Zhan, Fade paused slightly before continuing. "It doesn't matter whether I believe you or not. I killed Lazarro because he threatened my friends and intimidated the warriors."

"There's no use crying over spilled milk. If you have a sense of what is right and wrong, I will be very respectful to you. However, if you want to avenge your son, I don't mind fighting either."

Fade's words were clear, without any ambiguity. He stared at Old Zhan once he finished speaking as if he was waiting for his reply.

Old Zhan did not say a word when he heard this. He rubbed his hands on the armrest of the chair. His eyes rotated gently as if he was considering what kind of attitude he should have toward Fade.

Around five or six minutes later, Old Zhan finally raised his head. He looked at Fade with a smile and turned to the middle-aged man beside him. He said, "Many heroes emerge from obscurity when they are in their youth. Mr. Chen is so young but he already has such fame. He is really no ordinary man." Seeing this, Fade narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Old Zhan without saying a word.

Old Zhan then continued, "It's true that Lazzaro is my son, but after all, we haven't seen each other for decades. Also, as soon as he came back, he did such a heinous thing in the name of the Zhan family. I am heartbroken by his actions."

"As the ruler of the Zhan family and also as a former soldier, I can't tolerate any form of collusion with foreigners that threaten the domestic security of our country. No matter who he is, I will punish him severely for such a matter," Old Zhan shouted sternly.

Looking at Old Zhan's expression and tone, he seemed sincere. Nonetheless, facing such a cunning fox, Fade would not be careless and believe his words so easily. Although they had not seen each other for many years and did not have a close relationship, Lazzaro was still his son. Fade had slaughtered his son.

After shouting for a while, Old Zhan continued, "I heard about Lazzaro and knew that he had made such a huge mistake. The ramifications of his mistake have not been felt yet. I have come today to make up for this mistake."

"Oh!" Seeing Old Zhan's attitude, Fade believed that he did not hold a grudge against him for killing Lazzaro. "May I know how you are going to make up for this mistake?" Fade asked.

Old Zhan replied, "I heard that the two masters of the foreign mercenary group haven't been killed yet. They are on their way here to take revenge on Mr. Chen."

"That is true!" Fade nodded.

Old Zhan said, "This is what I will do. This was my son's doing, so I will help fight against the two masters."

"Then, I shall thank you in advance," Fade paid obeisance by cupping one hand in the other before his chest.
