Chapter 229 - Revenge 229: She Is Already Involved

"Well, young man, you sure like to work things fast, huh?" Marcus said with a smirk on his face. Seeing Kyle at this moment made Marcus remembers the time he had when he was courting his wife. Frequently visiting her, pestering her to say the sweet word of yes.

Such times he wanted to look back and laugh at the stupid things he had done just to make his wife smile. He'd also be hating himself for making her cry at times.

Looking at Kyle made Marcus wonder what kind of tactics Kyle has on his mind. Would he do something stupid just to get his granddaughter's attention? Just thinking about makes him want to see that personally, and it might even make him laugh. 

Kyle a faked cough two times, and said, "I actually came to ask your granddaughter about something."

Hearing that made Marcus looks at him with his left brow rose up, "My granddaughter?" Marcus glances at Anna and saw that she is a little bit surprised that Kyle's business here is her. "Well, she's right beside you, you can ask her now or do you want me to leave you guys here?"

Though as much as he wanted to hear what kind of question Kyle has for his granddaughter, he does have some generosity inside him. He will let Kyle have his time with his granddaughter for as long as he won't hurt her.

Marcus was about to stand up and leave, but Kyle stopped him, "I think you should stand here and listen as I'm about to open up a conversation with Anna since it is more or less connected to you too."

As much as Kyle wanted to be alone with Anna, he still has to let Marcus know his real purpose on why he is truly here. Since he started to open up the case of his grandma Shine's death, he might as well find that person who did it and end it. Of course, he is not gonna do it alone, he will have Marcus Coleman to help him too.

Sensing that it's the matter about his late brother, Marcus stayed put on his seat. If Kyle wanted to talk about that case, then they should talk it out on his office. He wonders why Kyle is trying to involve his granddaughter into this. As far as he knows, the only people who knew that Kyle is working on this case are him, Elijah, and Kyle's friend.

Marcus doesn't want his granddaughter to be involved in something so troublesome. He knew that there is something his grandchildren are working on, and he did not ask about it because he knew that they will handle it since they are a child of a Coleman. There is already a case on Anna's plate, and he wouldn't let Kyle add more to it.

"Young man, if you are planning to involve my granddaughter into this, then you better shut that mouth of yours," Marcus said in a threatening voice. He and Kyle already agreed that this matter won't be mentioned to anyone until he says so.

"I am not trying to involve your granddaughter..." Kyle glances at Anna and continued, "She is already involved in this matter, in my guess for quite a while now." 

Anna frowned at Kyle when she heard that. She has no idea what he is talking about. 'I'm involved in something? What nonsense is he talking about.'

"I have no idea what you are talking about," Anna said as she kind of feels upset that Kyle is telling her and her grandfather that she is involved in something she has no idea about. She somehow felt that her grandfather will scold her after this conversation with Kyle.

Taking out the picture of the symbol in his pocket, Kyle showed it to Anna, "Lannie said that you asked her if she ever saw this symbol, and I am here to asked you what leads do you have on this symbol?"

Eyeing on the picture on Kyle's hand, Anna was surprised that Kyle knows about this and is asking her about it. That is the same symbol that she saw on the guy who was following her and her brother the other day.

After taking down the man who was following them, Anna and her brother saw that symbol on the side of his neck.

"I'm pretty sure that Lannie also said to you that she didn't exactly give me the that I needed, and no, I don't have any lead to finding who's group this symbol belongs to." Anna could lie about her trying to find the group of people who has this symbol, but she decided not to because of her grandfather who is observing them. It is better, to be honest about than to lie about it.

Marcus squinted his eyes when he heard that his granddaughter is actually involved in the search for the main culprit of his brother's death. Those people are dangerous people and he is not going to let his grandchildren to be involved with them. "Is this the case that you and your brother are working on?" He said with a hint of anger in his tone.

"Not exactly..." Anna said.

"What do you mean 'not exactly'? You are searching for information about this, right?" Just like what Marcus is thinking, he also thinks that it is best for Anna to not dig deeper into this matter. It's better for her not be part of something so dangerous.

"Not exactly because my brother and I are working on a different matter, but suddenly, this guy who has this same symbol on his neck followed us, and of course, in the end, brother and I took the man down. That's how I knew about it." Anna did not have any idea that searching for the people who were following her and her brother would be such a big deal to Kyle and to her grandfather.

'Just what is it that they are working on?' She asked inwardly.
