Chapter 410: Two Conditions

Just as Justin stepped out of the car, he saw Aeldric standing outside the mansion entrance, looking tall and victorious, a smirk playing on his lips.

Meira saw the old man and felt like getting back into the car, but the poor girl could only follow Justin forward.

"I knew you would be here—after all, your sister was missing you so much," Aeldric commented, his tone laced with sarcasm.

Justin glanced at Meira, who stood a step behind him with her head lowered. She clearly looked guilty, knowing Aeldric had used her to bring Justin here.

"You should go inside," Justin told her.

She looked at him, words of apology almost slipping out, but Justin said, "Make sure to rest well."

She nodded like an obedient girl and left, head lowered.

Once she was gone, Aeldric spoke, "Good to see you’re caring toward a stranger. I wonder what you’d do for your real sister."

Aeldric was well aware Justin would carry out a DNA test. The man didn’t even bother hiding it.

But Justin had many questions of his own.

"My boy, you must be wondering why I did it, right?" Aeldric asked, while Justin, as usual, remained silent—knowing the man would answer on his own. "Come, let’s have a nice talk."

Aeldric turned, and the two walked toward the garden, where they sat in chairs around a lavish outdoor coffee table. Aeldric settled comfortably and looked around the garden in delight, as if it had never looked more beautiful.

"I have a business to take care of and no time to waste on your nuisances. If you’re done being mysterious, don’t waste my time," Justin said, while Aeldric took his sweet time to begin the conversation.

"I was expecting you to ask me about your real sister," Aeldric said.
