Chapter 1215 Persuasion II

Isana's breath hitched, she then looked at Lory with a glimmer of hope playing in her eyes.

"But to be fair, you have to give something in return..." Lory opens her arms with a cunning smile spread across her face.

Isana frowned she look at lory warily, "What do you want?"

Lory clasped her hands together on her knees, although Lory attitude was nonchalant and relaxed but her deep gaze made it difficult for isana to read her real mood which make her feel uneasy.

"Not much, just some information, of course, it has to be valuable information that's worth as much as your son well-being." there's a warning in Lory's voice.

Isana hesitated, her heart pounding rapidly inside her chest, honestly, despite everything that happened she didn't want to betray her husband and eldest son because her glory and well being also tightly connected with her family.

However she could not denied that her youngest son's well-being and future lay solely in her hands so what should she do? between her family and her young Son, which one should she choose?

"It's all up to you, after all the fate of your poor son has nothing to do with me," Lory shrug inddiferently, "Oh, maybe it would be good idea if your child became crippled therefore, his sentence would be lightened considering how he became disabled, I mean even the Hamilton family can't force to give maximum punishment to pitiful disabled man right? Oh, maybe your dear Son doesn't need to go to prison at all with his situation, he just needs to spend his entire life in a wheelchair or you can buy him a prosthetic leg to replace his legs, that's doesn't sound bad, right?!" Lory tilted her head and smiled sweetly as if she has giving a great solution, at the same time Isana face turned ashen as she imagined her young son become disable.

Lory could feel Isana's resistance wavering a lot that she only needed a little nudge to break Isana entirely. Lory got up from the chair and then walk to the table, unexpectedly her juice glass was remain on the table despite engulf with ice.

Lory waved her hands and the ice melted then she picked up the orange juice that had become cold orange juice. Lory took a sip from the straw and then back to her chair in casual manner.

Lory smacked her lips then continued "Maybe you want to discuss this with your eldest son or husband, maybe they have a better solution than me, I don't mind if you want to make a call..." Lory said in an indifferent tone before she took another sip but her eyes carefully watch Isana's expression.

Isana lift her cellphone to her ear but her movements suddenly paused, she pressed her lips tighly into a thin line at the same time her eyes moved left and right seemingly anxious.

Deep down Isana understands more than anyone the nature of her eldest son and her husband, even though on the outside they look warm, friendly and gentle, Isana knows how selfish, greedy and ambitious they are. Therefore her eldest son and husband would not sacrifice their benefit for anyone else, not even their own family especially Ron, who they consider to be a dead weight for the family future.

As the realization dawned on her Isana lifted her head, she bit her lips for a moment before she braced herself "What do you want to know?" her eyes glint with determination.

Lory eyes glint under her thick eyelashes "Well, for starters, I know someone is helping the Augburn family to establish ties with the underground guild and this person is influential enough that they can't refuse your family's request because of this person's orders, I wonder who this person is?"

Isana stared at Lory for a long time. After a while, Isana was finally ready to speak. "I... don't know for sure who that person is but he is definitely a foreigner."

"How do you know?" Lory eyes formed a question.

"Because...I heard the man speak with a Dolza accent," answered Isana.

Lory reiterated, "Are you sure?"

"I heard it a few times so I'm pretty sure!" Isana assures Lory she is afraid Lory will back away from helping Ron.

"Do you know this man name?" Lorry asked again.

Isana shook her head, "No, my husband usually avoids me when talking to that man, he never involved me with important matters....he don't trust me" she bitterly said.

Lory pondered for a few seconds before continuing, "Do you know what that man wants from your family, he won't help you for free right, neither will your family, so tell me what agreement your family has with this Man?"

Isana lowers her head then takes a sharp breath "I'm not sure, I guessed...it got something to do with The Hamilton family?"

Lory was stunned "How do you know?"

"Several times I heard that man's voice, he always bring out the Hamilton family name, I heard he talk about Ethan name" Isana glanced at Lory uneasily, worried whether this information was enough or not.

Lory was puzzled as to why all the information brought her back to the Hamilton family again, she didn't understand why they were so adamant about getting the Hamilton Family. It seemed she had to talk to Hugo about this.

"The man who speaks with a Dolza accent, could it be he's from the S.A.I.N.T. organization, can you guess?" Lory assumed the man was probably from that organization since S.A.I.N.T. organization's Headquarters is also in Wellington, the capital of Dolza.

Unfortunately, Isana shakes her head "I don't know, they never discuss important matters with me!" Isana grumble.

Lory rubbed her cheek then he throw another question, "Did the Augburn family got something to do with Ethan hamilton incident?"nove)lb/1n

Isana shook her head again "I...I don't know?"

Lory click her tongue expression her disatisfaction, seeing Lory reaction Isana become panic then hurriedly said"But...but I heard one time after Ethan Hamilton was reported to be in a coma, my eldest son and my husband were toasting in the study room, my husband said that now they will not only get Hamilton's company shares but also complete control of the Ellecant group, my husband said now no one can stop them!...then he said something about a good deal?"

"What kinda good deal?" Lory expression become solemn, from Isana she already reaffirm a few things thus she can make up more plan.

"I don't know - I don't know, like I said they never share important matters with me, this is all I know!" she cried in desperation.

Lory finished her juice and then put the empty glass on the frozen floor "Alright then" Lory raised from the chair.

Seeing Lory about to leave isana panics "Wait, what about my son?!"

Lory clenched her fist and there was a faint purple glint in her eyes that Isana only caught for a second before it disappeared. Lory released her palm and then let out a long heave she looked at Isana "It's done"

Isana was confused, "That's all?" She asked doubtfully.

"Checked it yourself! I always keep my promise..." Lory answered casually then turned around simultaneously Lory waved her hand soon after the ice covering the whole cafe including Isana's bodyguards melted away and evaporated into a white mist. Lory walked to the front door and left while everyone was still in a daze after being thawed.

Isana was dumbfounded watching Lory figure left after that she snapped back from her daze and then hastily took her phone and called the hospital "Hello, give my son a high-grade health potion, yes right now, quickly!" she shouted in urgency.

Lory got into the car, she leaned her tired head against the driver's seat. While waiting for the car steering wheel to adjust, Lory closed her eyes and took a deep breath. In the past, Lory didn't have the heart to take advantage of a mother's feelings from wanting to protect her child to gain information, as Fred said, she was too soft-hearted which made her action less efficient.

But after everything she went through including the years she spent in the cultivator's world, Lory interacted with Zhao Li Xin, Jin Hao, Bei Li Yan, Ming Yue Yin, Yang Xi Ying, Li Mo Zhen even Lao Min Na, from then on Lory learned to harder her heart in order to achieve the bigger goal.

Even so, a slight of guilt still managed to creep inside her heart though it's not for Ron only for Isana, the mother. The car engine started not long after the car sped off leaving the rumbling sound together with smoke and dust behind.
