Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!

Aron suppressed the pain he felt inside.

It seemed impossible for Aron and Morty to speak nicely to each other this life. After all, the death of Morty’s mother was always a pain in Morty’s heart.

Aron suddenly seemed weak and defeated.

He sighed and said, “I wasn’t sure what happened to Laurence. My order for Tracy was for her to pretend as a successor of the Close family. She had to do something to gain their trust. Perhaps killing Laurence was one of it.”

Morty thought Aron was going to be furious, but Aron calmed himself after he got enraged. Morty felt strange.

Morty paused and frowned.

“Why did they want Laurence dead?”

“Maybe they didn’t want Laurence to join our side?”

Morty scoffed at what Aron said.

“And you believed that?”

Aron shook his head and said, “Nobody knows why Close family asked Dr. Miller to come out with Laurence, an experimental human. Samuel told us that it was because the Close family wanted to draw the other countries to their side, but no one could confirm what they’re up to. We’ve only known that the successor of the Close family exists, but no one had ever seen them before. Other than Nick and Martin, the other successors seemed to be hidden in the dark. After Tracy released the news, Nicole’s people stopped it before my people even get to it. So, I didn’t know many details of the operation.”

Morty frowned hard.

“Nicole’s son went missing. Why can’t she do that?”

“I wasn’t blaming her, but Tracy isn’t the one she should be watching.”

“Then who she should watch?”

Morty felt like he was getting near to the answer, but Aron stopped talking.

“They are all people you can’t go against regardless of who it is. So, Morty, you have to work really hard if you wanted to stay in my position. Samuel passed all his assets to Nicole, but recently, he had been transferring his assets overseas. He was worried that people would get envious of his possessions. Why can’t you think of the obvious reason when Samuel already thought of it?”

It was what Aron did all the time. He won’t make things clear, but instead, he wanted Morty to figure things out himself.

Sometimes, Morty wondered if Aron would still train him like he did if he was dumb.

“Can’t you tell me directly?”

“No.”
