Six years later, I and my four cubs blew up my ex-husband's house
Chapter 2701 He had other purposes
It seems that this unexpected event has actually brought them closer together.
As he gets older, the old man longs to see his children and grandchildren living in harmony.
At least the current strained relationship is slowly changing, which is what he wants to see.
Thinking of this, the old man stood up happily, "Ah Si, you've arrived? You've come to see your father?"
David raised an eyebrow and looked at him with a probing gaze.
Isa looked haggard, but still kept a straight face, showing no intention of giving Zhou Si a friendly look.
Zhou Si didn't care what they thought. He just looked indifferent and said sarcastically, "Yeah! Come and see if he's dead or not."
Upon hearing this, the old man's expression changed drastically, and the smile on his face vanished instantly.
David was furious. "I knew that little bastard was up to no good."
Zhou Si sat down casually on the sofa and sneered, "Even if I had good intentions, you still managed to get yourself killed!"
The investigation into the fire is almost complete, and guess what?
He looked at him with disdain and continued, "This fire is entirely your own doing!"
Upon hearing this, all three were taken aback, their faces showing surprise and confusion.
The old man was the first to come to his senses.
His brow furrowed, and he pressed on urgently, "Did you find out?"
His large face was full of confusion, and his voice was clearly doubtful, "You said I caused this myself, what do you mean?"
Zhou Si's gaze shifted between the three of them before finally settling on Isa before he spoke, "Why don't you step aside? I need to talk to them about this alone."
His tone was casual, but you could hear the uncompromising intent in it.
Isa's expression changed slightly, a hint of surprise and pretense flashing in her eyes, before she said fiercely, "Why should I leave? Is there anything I can't hear?"
Her tone revealed a sense of resentment and wariness.
Zhou Si, however, remained nonchalant.
He slowly crossed his legs, his languid posture carrying an undeniable determination, "You really can't listen to me."
As she spoke, her gaze lightly swept over Isa and looked at the old man, "If you ask me, she has to leave. It's not convenient for her to be present for this matter."
The Lants and his son were both shrewd and calculating.
Seeing Zhou Si's insistence on his stance, they couldn't help but guess some possibilities.
At that moment, doubts arose in both of their minds, and they both turned their sharp gazes toward Isha.
Isa was firmly locked onto by those two piercing gazes.
His expression suddenly changed, a hint of panic flashed in his eyes, which then turned into anger.
She demanded sharply, "What do you mean? Are you trying to say I did it?"
As soon as she finished speaking, her gaze immediately turned to her husband on the hospital bed. Her eyes instantly filled with tears, and her voice suddenly became choked with emotion. "After so many years of marriage, do you believe me, or do you believe this little beast?"
As she spoke the last few words, her voice was filled with grievance and resentment, and her finger trembled as she pointed at Zhou Si.
This clumsy acting was enough to make Zhou Si laugh.
A mocking sneer curled at the corner of his lips as he said, "I haven't even uttered a single word yet! Why are you getting so agitated?"
Besides, how do you know I'm going to say you're the one who harmed him?
Only someone with a guilty conscience would be so paranoid, right?
He suddenly changed the subject, his tone becoming lighter, "Couldn't I talk to them about something else?"
Isa's face turned ashen as she shouted angrily, "Who knows what you're up to behind my back? Will you try to smear me in front of them when I'm not around? Stop with your sharp tongue."
"Looks like you're actually quite scared?"
Zhou Si said with a mocking expression, "Since that's the case, then I won't say anything more. Just pretend I was never here today."
After saying that, he stood up and prepared to leave.
The movement looked quite crisp and clean.
Upon seeing this, the old man immediately stopped him, saying, "Wait."
Zhou Si looked at him.
The old man said irritably, "Since you're already here, explain yourself before you leave."
Then, looking at Isa, he said, "Go and get David his medicine first!"
Isabella's expression immediately turned sour.
That old bastard, all he knows is to side with that little beast!
Thinking back to the time she had been looked down upon and treated coldly, her anger flared up again.
He spoke without thinking, "You actually believe him? This little beast has been up to no good since he came back. He's trying to ruin Lantes and has torn our happy home to pieces."
My son William has been missing for so long, and there's been no news of him. I can't find him anywhere. He must have killed him!
This time, his father was burned, and he might be the one who did it.
You trust him so much that you entrust everything to him. Aren't you afraid that he will take the opportunity to exonerate himself?
Isn't he the one in this world who most wants David dead?
For the sake of the company's development and interests, aren't you afraid of being manipulated and devoured until nothing is left?
Dad, you've gotten old. How did you become so confused and foolish? You've lost all the shrewdness you had when you were young.
The most untrustworthy person in this world is this person!
Isa didn't hold back in her criticism, even including the old man in her insults.
However, there is some truth to what he said.
In fact, after the matter was handed over to him, the old man did have his doubts and privately had his people follow up on the situation.
However, based on the evidence from all sides, it seems that Zhou Si has nothing to do with it.
So the old man reluctantly gave up the idea and waited quietly for the result.
At this moment, Isha's indignant words displeased him somewhat.
He was about to say something when Zhou Si's patience ran out.
"You really want to hear that? Fine, if that's how it is, then I'll grant your wish. But after you've said that, are you sure you still dare to stand here?"
His eyes were filled with blatant sarcasm. "His office caught fire, which was an unintentional act of his own making. But if no one had planned it beforehand, how could the fire have started?"
It would be impossible to set a trap in advance unless one was very familiar with his lifestyle.
He didn't say it explicitly, but the implied meaning in his words already made Isa uneasy.
David and the old man might not understand, but she did.
This little bastard... he actually found out something?
The method used to place that thing this time wasn't sophisticated, but it was inconspicuous.
In addition, she knew David's bad habit of often throwing his cigarettes into the potted plants after smoking.
This is how the two combine to make calculations.
What she was betting on was this seemingly insignificant thing.
I'm betting that no one will notice the potted plant.
But now, it seems the deception has been exposed?
Isa suddenly became restless.
But she dared not show it on her face, afraid that the old man and David would notice something amiss.
What puzzled her even more was that Zhou Si could have said it to her face, so why did he have to kick her out?
Does he have other motives?
