Chapter 374 - Movement Part 4
In the Lange Family Mansion, Laust's father, Endo Lange, slammed his table and glared at the butler. "You are so freaking useless!"
The butler only closed his eyes, not saying anything.
Endo Lange wanted Theo's information and there was still no news about him after more than a month, making him angry.
However, the butler seemed to have understood why Laust wanted to mend the relationship between him and Theo.
Although Theo didn't have an information network like them, concealing his whereabouts was still possible, albeit things like this would soon be found out sooner or later.
And he had predicted what Endo Lange wanted to do after this.
"I already saw everything about his personality. Do you think he will forgive us?" Endo glared at the butler. "I want him dead. I don't care how much money you use, I want to know his whereabouts!"
Yes, this was what they should do to get Theo's information. Only by using their connections and money could they 'ask' all Real Estate agencies about Theo's personal information, especially after the government stated they wouldn't be involved in Theo's matter.
"I understand." The butler politely bowed his head before leaving the room.
To his surprise, two people had been waiting behind the door as they entered together.
Those two were Ben Lange and Sihan Raskaka.
Ben politely bowed and said, "Father. I have returned home. I am bringing someone with me."
When Endo saw Sihan's face, he subconsciously muttered his name. "Sihan Raskaka."
"I am glad that Father knows him. This will make it easier." Ben smiled and pointed his hand at Sihan. "I'm sure Father knows he is Theodore Griffith's bully and Theodore Griffith must be targeting him to kill him. That's why I brought him to you. We can use him as bait to lure him out, allowing us to ambush him."
"Hm?" Endo stopped for a moment as his expression became serious, understanding this information. If he could use Sihan, he might be able to lure Theo out.
"He only has one demand. It's for our family to guarantee his safety. In other words, we will jump in before Theodore kills him." Ben smiled.
Ben Lange suddenly recalled what happened two days ago.
He and Sihan met face to face for the first time. In fact, he didn't expect to have Sihan meet him.
"So, what does the winner of the Grand Gaia want from me?" Ben smirked as he didn't plan to waste any time for pleasantries.
Sihan seemed to share the same sentiment. He stated, "I offer myself to be your bait. You must already know my relationship with him. As long as you can kill him, I am satisfied."
"Ho?" Ben's expression turned grim as he looked around, confirming there wasn't anyone nearby. "Let's cut to the chase. What do you want? I don't think killing him is all you want, right? I'm sure you don't want to die, else why do you even bother to come to me?"
Sihan nodded with a calm expression.
When he saw that reaction, he muttered inwardly, 'Hmm. This Theodore Griffith… has helped my brother overcome his matter and change for the better. I should repay him, no? Maybe I should provide some time for him by slowing Father again?
'No, I'm sure that father will send someone strong this time, so I may need to commission the Daemon group again to eliminate them. I can put all the blame on Sihan as well, since I can say he traps us.
'This way, Father will think twice about harming Theodore Griffith in the near future. This should be enough to let him become a Hero Rank Expert. At that time, I believe he should have enough strength to escape and lay low for a while.' Ben nodded with a serious expression as if telling Sihan his decision.
"I can bring you to my father, the current master of the Lange Family. However, I can't guarantee you that he will agree."
Sihan nodded without hesitation. "That's enough. I believe we share a common goal."
"Then, I'm looking forward to our cooperation." Ben smiled.
Recalling this scene and seeing his father's expression, Ben thought this was indeed a perfect opportunity not only to help Theo but also to weaken his father's power.
"What do you think about it, Father? I believe this is a perfect chance for us to strike Theodore Griffith. Besides, I'm sure you want to use the family's money and connection to know his home, right? Instead of doing that, I think it's good to go along with this plan. It's free." Ben smiled.
"!!!" The butler seemed to understand what Ben tried to do. Ben told him that he wanted to repay Theo's kindness for changing his brother for the better. And if that were true, Ben would be planning to make this plan fail, delaying everything for about two to three months.
After that, Endo needed to use money and connections to resume the current plan. However, due to the multiple failures, that plan would face many problems, delaying it even further. At the very least, they could give Theo around six months.
This should be enough to repay Theo's kindness. As long as Ben could talk it out with Theo, they should be able to resolve the misunderstandings and direct Theo's anger to Endo.
Seeing all these plans made him remember the time he served their mother. If only he could smile right now, he would have put on a genuine smile, feeling happy about the brothers' growth.
Unfortunately, he needed to put on a stern face as the butler stepped up. "Master. I believe this plan is good. It doesn't cost us any money either."
"You are too lenient. Have you forgotten that he has failed once?" Endo slammed his table and glared at his butler.
However, the butler didn't back down as he faced his master with a solemn expression. "It's normal to see failures when you grow up. And us, adults, should be cleaning it up. That's why… If Young Master failed this time…"
The butler released his killing intent as the ground started to crack and the windows began to tremble. He continued, "I shall be the one who does the next plan myself."
"…" Endo suddenly fell silent and closed his eyes. He thought for a moment and checked his butler's expression.
After several considerations, Endo finally opened his mouth. "Two months. I won't give you more time than that."
"Thank you, Father. I will do my best not to fail your expectations…" Ben politely bowed to him.
