Chapter 811 Asking Her Blessings
Day Eighty-Five...
~~*****~~
[ At Syphiruz Mafia Headquarters... ]
Axel brought Butler Li to their headquarters to detain him. Nathan couldn't let him go since he was still worried about Vincen's scheme. It was best for them to be more cautious. Detaining Butler Li was beneficial in keeping him in check.
Violet, Chantha, and Joker were gathered inside the office. They were still talking about the mission to find Axel when one subordinate barged into the room, alerting the three branch leaders.
"Branch Leaders!!! Good news! Boss Axel came back! He is back!"
The moment Chantha heard the words, she hastily stood up and grabbed the man's shoulder.
"Are you serious? Where is he? Tell me!" She shook his body as she demanded answers.
Violet tapped her sister's shoulder. "Hey, Calm down."
"He is walking toward our prison cell, bringing someone," The subordinate informed her.
Chantha didn't wait any further as she dashed out of the office. She just stopped when she caught a glimpse of the man she had been missing for days.
"Axel!" She called upon his name with so much longing.
Axel, who was escorting Butler Li in the hallway, suddenly halted on his step when he heard Chantha's voice. He turned around only to see his beloved woman running to him.
Axel let go of Butler Li as he caught Chantha in his arms when she threw herself into him. Chantha gave him a rib-crashing embrace.
His heart was pounding in his chest as he felt her warmth. He felt guilty for worrying her. Before he knew it, Chantha's body trembled as she began to sob.
"Shhhh! Please, don't cry. I'm sorry." Axel apologized as she rubbed her back.
Chantha began hitting his chest. "I was worried sick. I thought something bad happened to you. I... I can't lose you. I don't want to lose you!"
Axel just kept hugging her. "I'm sorry, Chantha. Our Supreme Leader gave me a special mission. Because of that, I needed to deceive our fellow colleagues, including you. I had to capture the mole." He explained to her.
Axel just chuckled, patting Joker's back.
"So, Butler Li is the traitor. How did our Boss accept this?" Chantha sounded worried about Nathan.
Axel fell silent for a moment, sadness evident in his eyes. "Of course, he was hurt. He has been deceived by Butler Li for more than two decades. Butler Li was like a family to him. But Butler Li has no choice. He sided with his nephew, Vincent... the leader of King Stallion Mafia."
"I'm glad he didn't poison Nathan and Chairman Xu." Violet heaved a sigh of relief.
"According to Butler Li, he didn't want to kill anyone," Axel replied. "However, because of him... Nathan's woman suffered a lot at the hands of Vincent and Monica. That is something Nathan can't let it slide. Phantomflake's misery started when Butler Li helped Vincent steal Nathan's identity. They used Phantomflake to enter Nathan's life."
Everyone fell silent at Axel's remarks. "Sigh! Vincent is winning! Jane is now marrying him. It's all over the news! How is our Boss doing?" Chantha asked Axel worriedly.
"He is coping up. Don't worry. Our Supreme Leader is strong. He will not give up." Axel believed in Nathan's capability. "Everything will be fine. I trust Phantomflake's judgment. She is not the type of person who will let her enemy win."
Chantha, Violet, and Joker nodded in agreement. They could still remember when Phantomflake defiantly faced their Supreme Leader. Instead of surrendering to him, she bravely stabbed her heart in front of Nathan.
"Sigh. They've been through a lot. I just hope they will get a happy ending... being together." Chantha expressed her concern for Nathan and Jane.
"Hey, Axel... did you find out? Who is young master Ethan's biological mother? Is it Helena or Monica?" Violet brought up another topic.
Everyone gazed at Axel expectantly, anticipating his reply.
"We are still investigating this. But Butler Li already confirmed that Monica was not Ethan's biological mother."
"Oh my gosh! I knew it! Young master Ethan is very different from Monica. I can't see any resemblance between the two." Chantha snapped her fingers.
"So true. I agree with you." Violet also supported her sister's last remarks.
"Truth will come to light! We will uncover it!" Joker blurted out.
As they continued the conversation, Axel suddenly grabbed Chantha's hand in front of their comrades.
"Alright. Let's change the topic. Allow me to announce something." Axel turned to Violet, Chantha's twin sister.
"Because of the hectic schedule and the complicated things that have been happening lately, I failed to inform you about my relationship with Chantha. Violet... I hope you will give us your blessings. I want to marry your sister."
Violet: "..."
Joker: "..."
