Predestined Marriage
Chapter 321 No Breathing

Leonardo returned to his room and recalled what Violet just said.

It made perfect sense without loopholes, but he felt that something was wrong.

Leonardo thought that he needed to meet Nathan.

Nathan and Violet got married when they were young, but their relationship had gradually deteriorated over the years.

In his memory, Nathan was a gentle and meticulous person with the romance of an artist. He became famous in his early years, but he wanted to accompany Violet and thus didn't care his career too much. However, in recent years, he had been busy organizing exhibitions and participating in various activities. He didn't even return to the Emerson's for the Spring Festival.

Leonardo made up his mind and went downstairs to ask a servant about Nathan's phone number.

When he used to live with Violet, he and Nathan were on pretty good terms, but after he returned to Hoover City, the two of them gradually lost contact, and now they no longer had any contact. He dialed Nathan's number.

The phone rang several times before connecting.

"Hello?" Nathan's voice was very gentle, and Adams was like him on this point.

Leonardo said softly, "Uncle, it's me."

Nathan was a little surprised, "Leonardo?"

"It's me. Where are you now? Do you have time to meet and chat with me?" Leonardo hadn't seen Nathan for many years, but he knew that Nathan would not reject his request.

Nathan was silent for a moment before he said, "Of course, but I'm not going back to Hoover City."

"I'm in Country M, your home."

Nathan fell silent again.

Leonardo did not urge Nathan, but waited for his reply quietly.

"Alright, my exhibition ends this afternoon. I will go home tonight, but don't tell your aunt about this."

"OK."

Nathan would be back in the evening. The time was just right.

After hanging up the phone, Leonardo narrowed his eyes and recalled what Nathan said, "Don't tell your aunt about this."

He carefully analyzed this sentence with profound implications.

Without letting Violet know, Nathan was willing to have a chat with Leonardo.

However, Leonardo had never talked about anything from the beginning.

Apparently, Nathan knew what Leonardo wanted to talk about.

This was a tacit understanding between intelligent people.

In the evening, Leonardo and Nathan made a phone call and made an appointment to meet at a café in the city.

When Leonardo arrived, it was exactly six o'clock.

He ordered a cup of coffee and chose a seat by the window where he could see the parking lot at the door, waiting for Nathan.

After nearly half an hour, he suddenly heard a few screams.

Along with it came a burst of noisy footsteps and cries of alarm.

"Heavens, an accident!"

"How is he?"

"Call an ambulance."

Leonardo frowned slightly and didn't care about it at first.

Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, and rushed out.

He elbowed his way in the crowd and walked to the man who was hit by the car.

It was a middle-aged man. His white shirt was dyed red with blood. Only his collar was still snow white. He had been crashed so hard that it was difficult to recognize him. Leonardo squatted down and wiped the blood off his face. He could vaguely see his face.

It was Nathan!

Leonardo paused and then shouted, "Uncle? Nathan?"

The man lying on the ground moved his fingers, and then remained motionless.

Someone took out Nathan's wallet and saw the ID card in it. "This man's name is Nathan."

"Heavens, is he the painter?"

"My daughter has always wanted to go to his exhibition!"

At this time, the police had already arrived.

"Move aside, all of you. Move aside."

The policeman dismissed the other onlookers before walking over and said to Leonardo, "Sir, please get up. Don't interfere with our work here." Leonardo stood up with a cold face and expressionlessly retreated to the side.

A policeman stretched out his hand to check Nathan's breathing. Then, he said to the policeman beside him, "There's no breathing anymore."

Leonardo followed them to the police station, and the police informed Violet.

When Violet arrived, she was in a daze, "Where is Nathan? Where is Nathan?"

A policeman came forward to stop Violet and said, "Mrs. Wilson, I beg your pardon."

Violet saw Leonardo and directly walked towards him, "Leonardo, what happened to your uncle? How could this be?"

Leonardo raised his head and looked at Violet who was crying with red and swollen eyes. He said, "I'll accompany you to see him."

When Violet saw Nathan's corpse, she fainted.

Leonardo stood alone in front of Nathan's corpse with a heavy heart.

Even if Nathan wasn't the biological father of Adams, he was still Douglas' biological father.

Douglas and Nathan had a good relationship.

Nathan's death was under investigation. Whether the accident was caused deliberately or accidentally remained to be determined for the time being. Leonardo was cooperating with the police to deal with the matter.

By the time he finished, it was already midnight.

It was daytime in his home country.

Leonardo sat by the flower bed outside the police station and called Summer.

The phone rang twice before Summer picked it up.

Summer's soft voice came from the phone, "Leonardo?"

"I asked her about Adams."

"What did she say?"

Leonardo repeated what Violet said to Summer.

Summer was silent for a moment, but then she asked him, "Do you think so?"

It was obvious that Summer did not believe it.

But now was not the time to pursue that matter.

Leonardo said in a hoarse voice, "Uncle Nathan died in a car accident."

Summer thought for a while before she realized that Leonardo's uncle was Douglas's father.

Summer asked, "Have you told Douglas?"

"Someone has already told him." Leonardo's voice revealed a trace of exhaustion.

"It's midnight in Country M. You have to pay attention to your health. Go and have a rest." From so far away, she could only give him a word of advice. Just as Summer hung up the phone, Tim called her.

What Tim told her was also the news of Nathan's death in a car accident.

Tim heard it from Michael's subordinates.

Summer did not know that Nathan had an accident when he went to an appointment with Leonardo, so she only thought that it was just a simple accident.

Summer said, "Tim, you should go to Country M with them. Leonardo's father will also go there with Douglas. I can stay in Hoover City alone. But, it's not convenient for Leonardo to stay abroad alone."

Actually, Tim intended to follow Leonardo to Country M. Now that he heard this, he no longer had any worries and flew to Country M with Michael and the others on that day.0000000
