Chapter 425: Chapter 424 Chapter 425: Chapter 424 Jackson Gill was montarily taken aback upon hearing this and turned his head to look…
Upon seeing the jade of the moon, he was slightly startled.
Where did this co from?
He rembered stealing it from Matias Gill’s sister’s neck…
Just as he thought of this, he felt sothing was amiss.
This jade…
Wasn’t the daughter who had gone missing from the first branch of the family wearing this exact piece of jade back then?
So, was Matias Gill’s sister actually the lost daughter of the Gill family, the direct princess of the first branch?
Jackson Gill’s eyes imdiately filled with panic.
At that mont, Austin Gill had already rushed towards him, completely disregarding his injuries, grabbing his collar and interrogating, “Speak, where did this moon co from!”
Jackson Gill paused.
He swallowed and then slowly said, “Big Brother, this, this…”
“What’s this? Speak!”
Austin Gill roared at him.
Seeing his furious deanor, and recalling the small crying face of Nara Gill when he had bullied her in the yard earlier that day, Jackson Gill grew fearful.
Although the first branch had lost a daughter and hadn’t made a fuss publicly, all mbers of the direct Gill lineage knew!
Moreover, they had never stopped searching for her all these years.
Austin Gill felt particularly guilty about this sister and was desperate to treat her with all his heart!
If the first branch found out he had almost forced himself on their daughter who had been lost outside, he was certain to be expelled from the Gill family.
If he were to be thrown out looking like this, where would he be able to live?!
Jackson Gill swallowed again and quickly said, “Big Brother, don’t be anxious, I was just about to tell you about this… I just forgot because of the pain, you see?”
Austin Gill imdiately let go of his collar, asking, “Did you find our sister?”
Jackson Gill nodded, “Yes, I have so leads. I wanted to show you this jade first… This jade…”
Austin Gill interrupted, “This jade is my sister’s, where did you get it?!”
Jackson Gill coughed slightly, “From a black-market store; I guess your sister was in dire straits and sold this jade. Sigh!”
Austin Gill was stunned upon hearing this, then furrowed his brow, “Is my sister living in such hardship? Then tell the shop owner’s na, I’ll go find them! No matter what, I have to find my sister!”
Jackson Gill looked down, “Alright, don’t get worked up. I’ve already sent people to look for her. But the jade has passed through several hands, and we still don’t have any news. Clance is also quite big, and though finding a person is easier than searching for a needle in the sea, it still takes ti…”
Austin Gill cald down upon hearing this, his eyes were reddening, “Right, I can’t rush. As long as we can find my sister, that’s all that matters.”
They’d been searching for fifteen years without any news.
He too had been alard at the sight of the jade.
It was as if his sister was right beside him, yet he had failed to recognize her…
He patted Jackson Gill’s shoulder, “This jade is extrely important to our family, I’ll record this rit for you! Don’t worry; I will definitely stand up for you on this matter! I’m going back ho now, and I’ll have my mom visit the Freeman Sect again tomorrow!”
“Thank you, Big Brother.”
Once Austin Gill had left, Jackson Gill’s face turned ominous.
…
At Matias Gill’s residence, Keira Olsen was looking after Nara Gill.
The girl was anxious, gesturing at her chest, seemingly trying to say sothing.
Keira Olsen inquired, “What’s the matter?”
She couldn’t understand sign language.
Nara Gill imdiately picked up a piece of paper and a pen and wrote: He stole my pendant!
Keira Olsen frowned imdiately, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you get it back.”
Nara Gill then nodded her head.
Then, she suddenly realized that her actions might implicate Keira Olsen, so with a troubled look on her little face, she wrote on the paper again: Will it bring you any trouble?
Keira Olsen patted her shoulder.
The children of the poor beco heads of household early on, Nara Gill is only around eighteen or nineteen, but she seed very composed. People who can’t speak are also not sensitive, you could tell Matias Gill usually doted on his younger sister a lot.
Keira Olsen said, “He stole your things, how could it trouble ? Don’t worry.”
Nara Gill breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.
Keira Olsen told Matias Gill and Nara Gill to rest and not worry about the Freeman Sect matter, then she and Lewis Horton went back to the villa.
The next day.
Just as Keira Olsen woke up, she received a call from Jas Olsen, “Sister, that Gill family really won’t leave us alone. Yesterday Austin Gill ca to find trouble and today Jackson Gill arrived, being carried in, insisting that you hit him. They’re hell-bent on slandering you! This is just endless…”
Keira Olsen interrupted his rambling, “It seems like I did hit him.”
“…” Jas Olsen was taken aback, “You actually hit him?”
“Right.”
Keira Olsen turned over and saw Lewis Horton’s face, which gave her a start.
The man was staring at her, and she didn’t know how long he had been awake.
Over the phone, Jas Olsen’s voice ca through, “Sister, although that Jackson Gill and Austin Gill are really annoying, couldn’t you have told before you hit soone? I would have gone to fight for you, and everything would have been fine, right? Why do you always take matters into your own hands?”
Keira Olsen, “Oh, I definitely will next ti. I just couldn’t hold back this ti.”
Jas Olsen, “…Master said not to co to the Freeman Sect, to avoid getting caught by them. Just stay at ho, and he will go and ask the Sect Leader to intervene and send the people away. But this ti it might be difficult because Jackson Gill’s injuries seem quite serious…”
“I’ll go.”
Keira Olsen got up to get dressed.
Jas Olsen, “What are you coming for? Don’t co…”
“Yesterday that Jackson Gill stole Nara’s things, and I didn’t know which hospital he was in. Since he’s going to the Freeman Sect today, I’ll go and retrieve it.”
Jas Olsen, “…”
After hanging up the phone, he grimaced.
Kate Freeman asked, “What happened? Did you tell him to avoid the trouble by staying at the Olsen Family for a few days? If we take care of everything on the Freeman Sect’s side, then…”
Jas Olsen, “Sister said she is coming over now.”
Kate Freeman, “…”
Chris Freeman imdiately looked angry, “Nonsense! Does she really think she can get away with it this ti, like she did with Austin Gill? Although Austin Gill is from the direct lineage, he had no fatal injuries, which is why Lady Gill let her off. But with Jackson Gill, it’s equivalent to being disabled, the seriousness is completely different! Legally, the first incident would be classified as a brawl, but the second is causing disability, which carries a different sentence!”
The rules of the Freeman Sect are also different.
Beating an elder, the most severe punishnt is expulsion from the sect.
Beating an elder to the extent of causing disability ans you’d have to bear all the injuries yourself and then be expelled from the sect according to the rules of the martial arts community.
Jas Olsen, “What should we do then? The Freeman Sect can’t expel my sister, right?”
Chris Freeman said, “Call her, and tell her not to co by any ans. Then send Uncle Three to the Gill family to apologize and settle the matter…”
“Apologize for what?! There’s no way she would apologize!”
Trevor Freeman’s resonant voice rang out from outside, and then he strode into the room.
