Chapter 1312: Chapter 1312: Why Did It Turn Out This Way?

The hatred from five years ago, so many brothers who endured life and death together perished, and the murderer was actually right beside us! His good brother even married his enemy’s daughter!

Recalling the past, a suspicion arose, and Grayson Quinn took a few deep breaths, "Did you know about this before you married her?"

"I didn’t know." Mason Nightshade admitted frankly.

Before his rebirth, he only discovered it a year after marrying her. After his rebirth, he had been investigating the details of the situation, trying to uncover the Mafia behind it. As long as he could find the true murderer, Aurelia Shaw and Balthazar Shaw could temporarily escape from this matter.

However, he was indeed unaware of Aurelia Shaw’s kidnapping, and the Mafia using her to threaten Balthazar Shaw.

"Grayson Quinn, calm down, I trust Major General Nightshade." Lennox Quinn said.

"Brother, you don’t understand, he’d do anything for Aurelia," Grayson turned to Mason, "About Godwin Nightshade, what about your father? Didn’t Balthazar Shaw indirectly cause your father’s death and Adem’s as well? Did you know about this long ago?"

Mason Nightshade remained silent.

Grayson felt a mix of emotions inside him. These matters he had been investigating, the pain he buried deep in his heart, Mason Nightshade had always known. Yet he knew the murderer all along and never told him.

"Grayson, calm down first." Lennox spoke, knowing his younger brother’s tendency to act impulsively. Seeing Mason as a brother, he would certainly feel betrayed.

"Bang!" Grayson slammed his fist heavily onto the glass coffee table, his hand was cut by the glass shards, and he stormed out, slamming the door behind him.

He didn’t know how to face Mason Nightshade anymore.

Nineteen lives!

Nineteen lives... for five years, he hadn’t stopped investigating for a single day, trying to find out who betrayed them. Who was the Mafia? He dreamed of avenging his fallen brothers.

But now...

Mason Nightshade had known all along.

Grayson slid down along the wall, crouching in the hallway, pulling his hair hard, his teeth chattering, the hand that bled clenched into a fist.

Why did it turn out like this?

...

The door was forcefully opened and slammed shut.

Lennox didn’t chase after him.

Grayson was emotionally unstable; it might be good to let him calm down on his own.

He looked at Mason, "What’s the story with Adem Nightshade?"

Balthazar Shaw and Godwin Nightshade, he had some understanding of this. But there were years between Adem Nightshade and Godwin Nightshade’s deaths, and Balthazar Shaw had no connection with Adem Nightshade. Did he leak the mission details to the Mafia back then?

Mason Nightshade provided an answer, "Decades ago, the government initiated a secret research project with two main participants, my father and Balthazar Shaw. Balthazar at that time was not part of the nation, and he didn’t want anyone to know he was involved, so his identity was always confidential to outsiders. Everyone thought my father was the sole leader.

When my brother took over the company, he also took over this secret research. Balthazar Shaw probably learned of it at that time."

But he hadn’t realized that those people actually kidnapped Aurelia Shaw to threaten Balthazar Shaw.

Five years ago, Aurelia Shaw was studying in M Nation, and the Mafia’s base was also in M Nation.

He seemed to have heard Aurelia mention she had been kidnapped before, and it turned out to be this incident.

"Don’t worry, Grayson just didn’t think it through for a moment. Give him some time, and he’ll be okay once he processes the news." Lennox patted Mason Nightshade’s shoulder.

Mason Nightshade smiled slightly, "Even Grayson reacted this way; the others in the unit who survived that mission back then would only react more intensely."
