Claude frowned as he saw the gentleness in Lily's eyes. He immediately wondered if she truly cared about his grandmother or — No… something like that is not possible. Lily and Madam Luo are strangers. He shook his head. "I don't know what you are talking about."

Claude did not expect Lily to believe his words. However, she did not expect her to laugh either. What was so funny? He could not help but wonder if he said something amusing.

"I know about the order." Lily calmly said. "My husband… knows it too." She eyed Zhou Jingren for a few seconds before turning her gaze back to the younger man. "I only wanted to hear your side of the story. But if you refuse to do so… then I would be forced to believe those stories that I heard about your grandmother."

"What stories?" he frowned.

"They wanted us to kill her. Me and Jingren… We are here to kill her."

A gasp escaped Claude's lips. How could that be? Is it possible that Lily already knew the truth about the past? But…

"They told me… it was your grandmother who killed my grandfather. Out of jealousy."

"That is not true!" Claude slammed his hand on the table, causing the furniture to shake. "How dare you say something like that to my grandmother? She is not a murderer!"

"Well… I didn't know that." Lily said. "So… I talked to your grandmother to see… if she was really a crazy murderer who got PTSD for killing the man that she loved."

"You! Stop it! Stop spouting nonsense! That is not true!" Claude's eyes bulged with rage. How could his grandmother kill the man that he loved? How could Lily just say this nonsense in front of his face?

"Relax." For the first time since they arrived inside the room, Zhou Jingren spoke. "Your reaction only makes it look like you know your grandmother's crimes." His tone was calm — too calm. He eyed Zhou Jingren and immediately saw the icy gaze that he was giving him. Claude trembled.

For some reason, Zhou Jingren's eyes reminded her of a Lion. It was sharp, calculating, and brutal. He could feel the chill emanate from Zhou Jingren's body as if… as if he was warning him. One wrong word and he would definitely devour him.

"My grandmother didn't kill your grandfather!" he said. His eyes wavered for a few seconds. However, his memories of his grandmother immediately made him composed. "My grandmother would never do that."

"All criminals would say that they were innocent." Zhou Jingren said. "I could kill you right now and say that you shot yourself." He smiled. Seeing the fear in the young man's eyes, Zhou Jingren added. "But don't worry. I would not do that in front of my wife."

"Stop scaring him." Lily pouted as she playfully slapped Zhou Jingren's arms. "I wanted him to talk. Not piss his pants."

The interaction seemed light and funny. However, to the person in front of them, it was the opposite. "Where… Where is my grandmother? What did you do to her?"

Lily leaned towards him in response."You know what I think?" Lily raised an eyebrow. "You are hiding your grandmother. You are pretending that she was kidnapped so you could pin it to us. Then you will leave France and meet up with her."

"That is a lie!" Claude gulped, unsure of what to believe anymore. To be honest, Lily's reaction is slowly making him believe that they were indeed here to kill Madam Luo. But… but those people promised that they will not touch the older woman as long as she won't tell anyone about Lilian? "My grandmother would never hurt someone." He said, his voice low.

"Then? Tell us your side of the story." Zhou Jingren said.

"I don't really know the whole story. I don't think— "

"Tell us what you know," Lily said. "Or…we will use you to find your grandmother. I'm sure she would not abandon her favorite grandson, right?" Lily's face was full of smiles. It was the exact opposite of her poisonous words.

How could a person say something sinister and smile just like that?

"She said… she said Lilian saved her from the organization." He said. "As for the details… I don't know. But… but when I found out… I talked to Mr. Neeson."

"Neeson… like the Duchess' father?"

"Yes— Yes… and then… they brought me somewhere. I don't know where… alright? I was blindfolded. But I am sure that it was a very long ride from France. And — And I begged them."

"Them? Like the members of the Order?" Lily and Zhou Jingren eyed each other.

"Yes. That should be them. There were many people but Mr. Neeson is not one of them. They were wearing hoods so I can't see their faces."

"And? That did they do?"

"They… They asked me about my grandmother's illness." He shivered as she remembered how everyone in that dark place voted to kill him and his grandmother that night. "But… But… I told them that my grandmother had evidence of their existence."

Lily smiled. "But you don't." She pursed her lips when she saw the alarm on the young man's face. "Don't worry… I would not kill you."

"You— "

"Continue." Zhou Jingren interrupted him.

"I gave me a piece of news and some images of Mr. Neeson and Lilian… and some other guy. Two guys. I told them my grandmother has a lot of those. But…"

"But… you don't know where she put it?" Once again, Lily continued his words. It does not take a genius for Lily to realize that this young man made everyone in the organization think that he was useful. That he and his grandmother had evidence of their existence. He did it to spare his and Madam Luo's life.

He did it to survive. For a few seconds, amusement flashed in Lily's eyes. "And… they believed you?" Of course, they didn't. How could they believe a young man's words like that? The smile on Lily's face broadened.

The person who thought about this plan was quite brilliant, Lily thought inwardly as she connected all the dots in her mind.
