Chapter 454

Meanwhile, after sending Cameron back, Elijah was just about to leave when he bumped into Daniel, who had just returned.

"Have you found him?" he asked.

Daniel walked to the kitchen and poured out a glass of water. He threw his head back and downed the entire glass before saying, "No, but my men are on the lookout. He won't be able to leave Highside."

Elijah nodded. "What about William?"

"He hasn't returned yet. I heard he took Jethro away, though."

Hearing that, Elijah was silent for a bit. "Now that things are almost resolved, does he still intend to keep Leanna in the dark?"

Daniel put down his glass and drawled, "Miss McKinney had also asked me a similar question, but I think he won't."

"Is it because of Louis?"

"Perhaps that's part of the reason." Daniel made a rational guess.

"What about the other parts?"

"Someone who has been considered dead for many years suddenly makes an appearance, and it's in the form of another person. No one can get over that so easily."

William wouldn't have stayed here for long if it weren't for Leanna. When everything was over, he would leave immediately.

Lloyd would truly disappear from the face of this planet.

Elijah frowned. "But you also know that things are different now. Leanna has a right to know; we can't keep hiding it from her."

"I know that, but what use is there in knowing? Are you able to convince him?"

Elijah pursed his lips and said no more. Even though William appeared to be a composed and polite gentleman, they all knew that he had put in a tremendous effort for the sake of revenge. There were even some actions of his that could be safely described as cruel.

The Lloyd in the past had already died in the explosion.

Daniel stated, "As for all those things you mentioned, we can't be hasty. We haven't even caught Leroy at this point, so let's take things one at a time."
