Chapter 756 Coming Clean

As soon as Neil left, Zephyr followed suit.

Very soon, only Neera and Chad were left facing each other in the huge living room.

Chad stared at Neera for a moment, and chuckled for a bit.

“You and your aunt can be so different sometimes.”

Neera felt a bit startled that Chad had started the conversation with such a remark. “What do you

mean by that?” She asked.

Chad smirked elegantly. Tenderness would appear in his eyes unconsciously whenever he talked

about Adriana.

“Your aunt has a gentle temper and behaves well. She abides by the rules when she works. Although she can be fierce, she isn’t as fierce as you are. She would probably be very afraid after tonight’s

incident, but it doesn’t seem like you are.”

As he said that, he looked at her with a gentle smile. It seemed like he was giving himself an

approval of sorts.

“It seems that you’re quite suitable to be my successor.”

Neera blanked out for a bit, and stared at him for another few seconds.

She could see that he wasn’t joking in his eyes. He was dead serious about it.

Suddenly, she was speechless.

“I don’t know you well, no, I’m not familiar with you at all. Matters of succession are a bit of a tangent in this conversation. Why don’t we get straight to the point? Tell me what you and Zephyr’s

true identities are.”

Chad nodded, and didn’t continue off–topic. He frankly told her Zephyr’s true identity.

“You’re right, Zephyr is indeed a killer. But he’s not just some ordinary hitman.”

Neera guessed right, and she felt affirmed.

“Why do you have an hitman with you?”

“I was lucky enough to save Zephyr’s life some time ago. So, he’s been by my side all these years.”

Chad explained.

So…. this is repaying his favor?

Neera furrowed her eyebrows. She didn’t know how to process the information.

Since the matter had come to this point, and he had no intention of hiding it, she wouldn’t hold

back then.

“You’re not just some regular businessman, are you, Mr. Gordon?”

Chad raised an eyebrow. “Well, on paper, I am indeed a businessman. But because of my family relationship, I am deeply involved in some things. It’s a whole thing.”

Hearing that, Neera had even more questions.

What kind of family relationship? What whole thing? She wanted to know more.

“May I ask, what kind of family background do you have? You’re not part of some mafia right? Won’t you put my aunt in danger if you are?”

Chad seemed to be amused by her question, and put his fist by his lips.

“You don’t have to worry about this. I’m not a part of some shady family. And I will certainly not

put your aunt in danger.”

He pondered for a moment, and thought about what he was going to say.

“Hmm… It might be a bit early to tell you this. But, I guess it’s a case of love me, love my dog. You’re Adriana’s niece, so that means I’m gonna treat you like my own niece as well. So, it won’t hurt to tell you I suppose. Have you heard of hermit families?”

“Hermit families?” Neera was stunned for a moment.

She heard a bit about these kinds of families before, but she didn’t know a lot about them.

Chad nodded lightly. “Yup. Other than the five influential families of Kingsview, there are also a lot of other hermit families hidden in plain sight. These families were passed down generation after generation, and they have a rich history and background. For example, the ancient medical skills you’ve learned are inherited from the ancient medical family. And the Gordon family belongs to the Bartitsu family.”

Neera was starting to get confused.

“No, hold on. I know about the hermit ancient medical family. But does the Bartitsu family really

exist?”

Seeing her face full of curiosity, Chad couldn’t help himself but laugh.

“Naturally, a lot of things are not what they seem in the world. Some things that you thought are non–existent have actually been there for hundreds of years. Plus, don’t underestimate such hermit families. Nowadays, the four oldest Bartitsu families are strong enough to take on a whole country. People from such families are capable of emerging in large numbers. Even Zephyr and his skills that you saw today are nothing more than mediocre to them…”

The more she listened, the more confused she became. Her brain could not compute all of this

information.

this

She felt as though it was all Greek to her. All of this was well within her knowledge blind spot.

Chad kept paying attention to her reaction. He couldn’t resist but smiled.

“I know you’ve never come in contact with such things, hence your inability to comprehend it now.

But no worries, you’ll understand soon enough.”

Then, he changed the topic to another important matter at hand.

“And, as for your aunt, I’ve never ever had any insincere feelings towards her. So I hope that there is no misunderstanding between the two of us. To her, you’re not just her niece, you’re almost like her biological daughter. Hence, I will also treat you like my own daughter. That is why I’m here today to come clean to you and tell you about everything honestly. I hope you can feel my sincerity.”
