Chapter 796

Ludwik's eyes were bloodshot with guilt as he scanned Parker up and down, "Are you alright? I mean, physically?" "Last I heard from Tiana, she was frantic on the phone, saying you'd been shot multiple times..."

"Nearly kicked the bucket," Parker nodded, reassuring him, "But look at me now, all in one piece, right?"

"What in the world happened to you, where did you vanish to?" Ludwik pressed, his brows knitted in concern.

Parker turned to look out the window, recounting the tale of his fall from the cliff, how his uncle had rushed to his rescue, and the month he spent recuperating on Saltland Island, sparing no detail for Ludwik.

Ludwik clenched his fists, frustrated, "Justin, that fool."

"He got played by Jarvis too! When you eloped with Whitney at your wedding, that's when Jarvis and the Patrick family must have been plotting against the Lipperts. They saw me as a threat and used Justin to frame me by stealing the chip. It was also Jarvis who suddenly kidnapped Tiana and Cherry, forcing me to leave the lab for half a day.

That's when Justin stole the chip, and shortly after, I was ambushed by hitmen hired by Jarvis at the seaside brick factory, cornered..."

"Parker, I nearly got you killed," Ludwik slammed his fist on the table, filled with self-reproach, "You even called me, asking me to take charge because you couldn't handle it alone. I was negligent, all because of Whitney."

Parker didn't comfort him, just offered a serene smile, "It's all water under the bridge, Ludwik!"

"Thank goodness your uncle saved you, but how did he happen to know you were in Emperor City?"

Parker sheepishly ran a hand through his hair, "My uncle was acting on my mother's request."

"Wait, your uncle is?" Ludwik's tone sharpened.

Parker licked his lips, "Yeah, he's Phineas, the chairman of Inko Group."

Ludwik couldn't hide his shock.
