The Dark Side Of Fate Chapter 699
"Where is my room?" He asked with a deep voice, and Uncle Lucas widened his eyes.
"Yes, Uncle, he is a man. Meet Erik Stepanov," I said, and my mother gasped.
"All will be explained soon. Right now, I need to see Larry." I said, Walking in quickly.
Tamia and the others continued while Leo, Marcel, Theodore, David, Devin, Dominic and Vino remained.
I linked Kappa Levi to bring us T-shirts and shorts. None of us wanted to go to our rooms yet. We had a lot to discuss.
"What about me?" Erik asked again.
"A room is being prepared for you. Meanwhile, A kappa is bringing some shorts and t-shirts; feel free to change," I said, and Dominic and David snickered. Erik raised an eyebrow.
"You mean if I find my size," he corrected me, and I bowed my head to avoid laughing.
"I am sure the room will be ready in no time," I said, and we headed to the lounge.
We got there, and Levi arrived with the shorts and T-shirts. We didn't bother to find something for Erik because we knew none would fit. Luckily for him, an Omega came to take him to his room before we finished changing.
I asked him to return once he had changed his dress. The last part didn't sound right because everyone laughed, but I knew the amusement was over.
"Did you say Stepanaov?" My mother said, and I nodded. Then I asked them to pay attention while telling them all we had learned. Uncle Lucas and my mother were in shock.
"So I was right all along," Uncle Lucas said, and I nodded.
"Right, about what?" My mother asked.
"He hinted that Larry couldn't have planned the uprising all alone," Marcel said, sounding bored, and Uncle Lucas laughed.
"So what are we going to do now?" Uncle Lucas asked.
"Larry was Yuri's right-hand man. They planned the uprising together and almost succeeded twice. They had to be meeting in private. I need to know the places Larry has met with Yuri so I can fish him out," I said, and my mother frowned.
"Don't you think he would have abandoned those places?" she asked. And David interrupted.
"I doubt that," David said, and she was attentive.
"Joan Clayman is on his team, and we had dismissed everything Larry tried to tell us on the day of his sentencing. We believed he was in the shadows until now. Yuri won't expect us to ask Larry questions now, and the hearing in the King hall, which has nothing to do with him, would further boost his confidence. Even after the spies and traitors have been arrested, he wouldn't think we would ask Larry for specific locations he is comfortable with," David said, and he had a valid point.
"Finding his location will not be discussed at the hearing, and I doubt Joan Clayman would know where he is. She is too close to us for him to be that careless. They haven't worked closely as Larry worked with him." Vino said, and just then, Erik walked in.
He had washed off the temporary dye on his hair and removed the contacts. For a man his age, he had a beautiful face, and his small frame did not hurt his looks at all. The beard messed him up a lot. He looked good as a man but horrible as a woman.
"Excuse my manners," He said apologetically, knowing he had poorly behaved initially.
Erik walked up to Uncle Lucas and my mother and extended a handshake with a boyish smile. He took my mother's hand and kissed the back of her hand with some charm.
"She is taken," Lucas said, sounding a bit annoyed. My mother was blushing at his charm. If only Jake had been around, Erik would have gotten some beating.
Erik sighed and turned his attention towards me.
"I heard some of the things you discussed, and you will be right to ask Larry about Yuri's known locations if Larry is still alive. They often met privately, and Larry used his office to secure some properties for Yuri. You can start from there. He might not know where he is, but you should get the information on the properties he purchased for Yuri. It will lead somewhere," Erik said.
