Chapter 1349
Yates didn’t respond, just stared at him icily, as if telling him that he just had to follow his order, no more
chatter.
Sheldon, not one to squabble with an older man, pulled out his cell phone and dialed the butler right in
front of him.
The butler was really old, and he had his grandson answer his calls.
Sheldon asked the butler about Vanya. The butler rambled on and on, much to Yates’ annoyance.
Fearing Yates’ wrath, Sheldon finally exclaimed, “Hey, Greg… Can you hear me? If you can, tell me
why my grandfather adopted Vanya!”
Greg’s voice was shaky and unclear, “What… I can’t hear you…”
Sheldon looked at Yates, “Should we drop it?”
Yates grabbed the phone, his voice cold, “If you don’t speak up, I’ll send someone to wipe out your
entire family!”

“I am Vanya’s father!” Yates replied.
“Oh, it’s you,” Greg said, “The master said if you were the one looking for him, he’d tell you.”
Sheldon was stunned. Had Greg been pretending to be stupid?
Yates’ voice was icy, “Speak!”
Greg, who was just following orders, had been instructed by Sheldon’s grandfather not to speak of
Vanya’s past to anyone unless her biological father came asking.
Sheldon’s group, always curious, had made Greg pretend to be senile to avoid any slip-ups.
Now that Vanya’s biological father had come calling, Greg relayed everything as instructed.
Sheldon’s grandfather was a friend of Pauline’s sister. She had left her child in her sister’s care. But her
sister fell ill and couldn’t look after the child, so she handed her over to Sheldon’s grandfather and gave
him all of Pauline’s money.
Pauline resented Yates. After all, he had killed Pauline’s first love in secret to win her over and tricked
her into thinking her first love didn’t want her
Pauline was unaware of the truth, and believed her first love had left her and slowly fell for Yates. But
Yates couldn’t marry her.
By then, Pauline was pregnant, but Yates forced her to break up with him and married someone else.
In her anger, Pauline left him.
After giving birth, she encountered an enemy of her family. The enemy, whose origins were unknown,
was after her family.
Pauline didn’t want to endanger her child, so she left her beloved daughter with her best friend while
she and her sons stayed on the run.
When Yates came looking for her, he found Pauline had been tortured to death.
A deep sadness spread across Yates’ aged face when he learned the truth. He had thought Pauline
had given up their child out of spite, not out of desperation.
After knowing that Pauline was driven to such a state by the Siren Organization, Yates hated the

If it wasn’t for Eleanor, he would turn Bernard into a bio-human and throw him into a blender!
Yates’ fists clenched, veins bulging. Seeing this, Sheldon instinctively defended Bernard.
“That was the work of the original Siren Organization. Bernard had nothing to do with it…”
The original Siren Organization was called Darkness, a long-standing organization that had committed
many atrocities. But Bernard wasn’t even born back then. How could he be blamed for everything?
“They are all the same!” Yates roared.
Just thinking that his granddaughter was married to such a man, Yates was filled with rage.
“He may be like the rest, but he’s Eleanor’s husband. Don’t you plan to spare him for Eleanor’s sake?”
Yates scoffed, “If it wasn’t for Eleanor, do you think he’d still be alive?”
Sheldon frowned, “He’s still your granddaughter’s husband, and Eleanor is carrying his child. Once the
baby is born…”
Yates interrupted him coldly, “Are you saying the Pine family hasn’t suffered enough at the hands of the
Siren Organization, or that the Laurence family doesn’t hate the Pine family enough??
Sheldon was speechless. By rights, the Pine family should hate the Laurence family and Siren
Organization, but for some reason, he didn’t feel as much hatred as he should. Could it be that his guilt
towards his sister outweighed his hatred?
