Chapter 57: chapter 57

*Flashback*His men dragged Luca Hale and made her kneel in front of him where he majestically sat in his throne.Frank said, "She is the spy, Boss.""I see," he blankly looked at her.Luca Hale glared at him.The subordinates also handed a small disc. "Boss, here is the evidence Luca Hale had collected against the Underworld."When Eric took a look at it, he raised his brow and looked at her."Not bad."It was rare for him to praise anybody. That just showed how she was thorough with her investigation.But the next moment, he already snapped the disc into two parts.Luca Hale narrowed her eyes."Don't think that you win because of this, Mafia King."He said nothing."Your ugly truth won't remain hidden forever, Eric Willson!" She gritted her teeth.Frank sneered. "I see the hatred runs deep. Why not? You are the Hale family's daughter after all. I see why you chose to become an officer...just like your parents."The mention of her parents dug out the deeply buried wound in her heart. She felt her chest ache as she remembered them."Yes.. just like Mom and Dad…" she raised her head and challenged Eric's indifferent gaze, anger surging in her chest, "my same parents who you mercilessly killed years ago!"Silence.A while later, there was a bullet hole in her chest and she laid on the ground in the pool of her own blood. Frank silently looked at her body.He never thought that Eric would have to kill the whole Hale family one day. Years back, it was Luca Hale's parents and now Luca Hale herself.One of the subordinates, brought all her belongings. "Boss, this phone was hidden in her bag."Eric took a look at it and found a certain woman's picture in it. He tilted his head and stared at that picture for a long time."Who is she?"Frank said, "Lucy Hale. Luca Hale's sister."Eric glanced at him but said nothing.He looked back at the picture and for the first time, he felt a strong foreboding.Something had tugged his chest as if somebody had pulled a string to delve deeper.He wanted to meet her.He had no answer to why he wanted to. Eric couldn't quite put his finger to it."I want to meet her," he declared.
