Chapter 318 Gray in Action
Gray, the head of the Felix family, is a very serious and cold-looking middle-aged man with a rather calm temperament. His gray hair makes him look very vicissitudes of life. When he sits there with a cane, he looks like a college student. professor.
Mellen had met him before when he was in Graham City. Although he looked at him differently for some reasons at that time, he still regarded him as a junior like his son Kevin.
But now, after seeing Meren appear in the principal's office, this man stood up politely and nodded to him, a strange emotion flashing across his angular face.
It's not entirely because of Melen's current status as heir that he is so polite.
In fact, there are too many people who have risen and fallen in the wizarding world. If there is no long-term existence of a family behind them, it will actually be the same.
It's just that Melen is different from others. He has a marriage contract with his "illegitimate daughter" and is unclear about Mrs. Chelsea. No matter what aspect, Gray cannot ignore it, and of course it needs to be treated with caution.
But what surprised him was that after Mellen walked in, Browning, the principal, also stood up from his chair.
Although there is no further expression, this attitude is not in line with Gray's understanding of both parties...
"It's OK to launch an investigation, but it must be done carefully."
Seeing that Mellen didn't mean to speak for a while after saying hello, Principal Browning sat back on the chair and looked at Gray.
"If there is no trap behind the suspicion that can be easily seen through, it proves that the enemy is confident and has no fear of us finding any clues."
"I will consider hiring Detective Swinburne to lead this investigation."
Gray responded in a deep voice, the remaining politeness on his face because he had just met Mellen immediately disappeared, and his words contained anger.
"If you want to use this kind of thing to provoke a dispute between Felix and Lesomore, even if the person behind it is not afraid of being discovered by us, he must bear a strong price!"
"Now that you have made up your mind, I will instruct the people below to cooperate with you."
Principal Browning said calmly: "As long as you don't affect the order of the school."
Gray agreed.
After saluting to express his gratitude, he looked at Meren beside him who was silently listening to the conversation between the two.
"I heard that the heir can use the geographical advantage to screen suspicious people in the school?"
"This ability is very expensive."
Before Mellen could speak, Principal Browning spoke for him, "Besides, Iger's studies are very heavy and he is not suitable for participating in this kind of action."
"The Felix family would be grateful for even a small help."
Gray looked at Mellen without giving up and said: "Of course we will bear the cost issue."
His expression was very firm, as if he had to ask Mellen to take action.
Browning frowned when he saw this, and then looked at Mellen.
"What do you think, Egg?"
"I think I should first understand what you are talking about."
Mellen responded with a shrug.
It's not that he really doesn't understand, it's probably the trouble related to Kevin, but Meren hasn't paid much attention to this matter, so naturally he's not very clear about the details of the current conversation between the two.
"I guess you've heard about Kevin."
Before Principal Browning could speak, Gray, who was sitting on the chair next to Mellen, spoke, "But you may not know that it is not easy for the seriously injured Lambert to recover."
I actually know very well. Mellen thought to himself that Juliana told him that there was something wrong in it right away.
But facing the ex-husband in front of him, of course it was impossible for him to tell the truth, so he could only nodded silently.
"Normally speaking, Lambert's injury shouldn't have been so serious."
Gray said in a deep voice: "Kevin is not a temperamental person. In this school, even if he is angered and makes a move, he will not be able to kill him."
Mellen nodded again after hearing this.
He still believed this, because in his impression, that little Huangmao was not completely a playboy, and in some aspects his temperament could even be said to be pretty good.
"It is doubtful that Lambert was seriously injured, but what is more serious is that after the incident, someone blackmailed Kevin to do something on the condition that Lambert's injury was restored."
"What's up?"
"Tell me about the illegitimate daughter."
When he said this, Gray stared at Mellen, as if he wanted to see his reaction carefully.
But after hearing this, Meren just said "oh" and said nothing.
This made Gray, who had a tense face, a little confused.
Because Mrs. Chelsea claimed to have killed the illegitimate daughter, but the fiancé in front of her didn't show any sadness at all?
Could it be that he is a person with a cold nature?
Or is it that you don't want to show your concern for your illegitimate daughter in front of yourself, so as not to anger yourself?
"I came to Fort St. Grant this time just to find out everything behind this."
The suspicion in his heart did not affect Gray's words, "I don't intend to pursue the illegitimate daughter. But who is using Kevin behind the scenes must be found out."
Of course he couldn't just let it go after being cuckolded, but considering his relationship with the Lesomore family, it was not appropriate to make this matter a big deal.
And it can't cause a big fuss. After all, it's a scandal, and the main person involved has been killed by Mrs. Chelsea.
So even if he wants to pursue it, Gray will only pursue his ex-wife Juliana.
As for Mellen in front of him, even if he does not consider the identity of his heir, he still has to consider the entanglement between Mrs. Chelsea and him.
So when he saw Melen, even though he was a little annoyed with Wu Jiwu, Gray really never thought of venting his anger on him.
However, what surprised him was that after he said these words, Melen still just nodded without any change in his expression.
As the fiancé of an illegitimate daughter, is this man really indifferent to everything about his illegitimate daughter?
An inexplicable feeling of contempt arose in his heart, but on the surface, he spoke again, hoping that Mellen could provide some help in this investigation.
Melen was actually a little curious about some of the hidden secrets behind this matter. In addition, with the Felix family leading the way, he didn't need to do anything more, just to provide assistance, so he didn't refuse.
But he didn’t say he agreed, he just mentioned that he would consider it.
Of course, even if you really agree later, you still have to be paid.
However, we should always ask Julianna’s opinion on this matter first, so before that, Melen didn’t plan to say anything more.
The two parties then added friends and talked in detail after mentioning it. Gray then left with satisfaction, while Mellen turned his attention to Principal Browning.
There was a question that actually confused him, but it was impossible for ordinary people to know about it.
Now that he had just met Gray, he could no longer help his curiosity.
"Why does Kevin look nothing like his mother?"
Mellen asked.
