Chapter 628


    Lennon was taken aback.


    Out of all the brothers, Lennon respected Chad, his elder brother, the most. Chad was eight years older


    than Lennon and had taken very good care of thetter.


    Although Chad was no longer alive, Lennon still took good care of Nadine and Carlene. Otherwise,


    there was no way Nadine could havee to manage Fowler House.


    “Why do you ask, Naddy?” Lennon asked in confusion.


    Nadine took a deep breath and wiped a tear from the edge of her eye as she said, “Uncle Lennon, your


    eldest brother’s corpse currently lies inside our family residence. Even Grandfather’s corpse is still


    here. War Legate Draco hase here today because he’d like to retrieve his body.”


    “What did you say?! That’s nonsense!” Lennon furiously said, “I love you very much, Naddy, but you


    should never say something so outrageous, understood?”


    Nadine shook her head. “I’m telling you the truth, Uncle Lennon.”


    “I won’t say anything about your father’s corpse since I myself couldn’t find it, but I watched as your


    grandfather’s corpse was buried with my own two eyes. How could he possibly be here in our home?”


    “Uncle Chase has duped us all,” Nadine cried


    “What? What are you saying, Naddy?” Lennon asked curiously.


    “What’s going on, Naddy? Don’t start any strife within the family right now. My father and Uncle Chase


    are very close,” Louis interrupted


    “What’s going on, Naddy? Why would you make such a severe usation against your own uncle?”


    The other Gardners chastised Nadine, who merely looked at Adrian before shaking her head.


    “You’re all wrong! The truth is my father was War Legate Achelous of Wyvern Peak, and Uncle Chase


    was the one who got him killed. I saw my father’s corpse lying inside Grandfather’s vi with my own


    eyes–apletely dried–up corpse!


    “Meanwhile, Grandfather’s corpse is in the study, sitting down. The one we thought got buried at the


    time wasn’t Grandfather, but a double,” Nadine replied.


    “What did you say?!” Lennon and the others were shocked by the revtion.


    “Your father’s War Legate Achelous? How is that possible?”


    “I never knew my eldest brother had such a high rank.”


    “You’d better not spew nonsense, Nadine.


    The elder Gardners continued to admonish her.


    Yet, Nadine merely said, “If you don’t believe me, you can check Grandfather’s study. I’ll ept any


    punishment if I’m lying!”


    Lennon’s body trembled, while the other Garders were dumbfounded.


    Judging by Nadine’s expression, she doesn’t seem to be lying.”


    Lennon was stunned, while the other Gardners thought this could not passibly be true.


    At that moment, Adrian said, “Nadine’s telling the truth, Mr. Lennon. Your eldest brother, Chad Gardner,


    was War Legate Achelous of Wyvern Peak. I’vee here today to retrieve his corpse so that he can


    be buried at Heroes Cemetery.”


    “Wh–Where’s your proof?” Lemon looked at Adrian in a daze.


    At that moment, Lennon felt his mind inplete turmoil.


    Adrian then said, “The reason V War Legate Achelous died was that someone revealed his location


    andid down an ambush for them to be assassinated. On top of that, the man who betrayed him was


    Chase, your second eldest brother.


    “After Chad died, Chase took his body away, which I still haven’t figured out why yet. However, what I


    can tell you now is that Chad’s corpse is currently within the Gardner residence.”


    Lennon was stunned. Nadine grabbed his hand as she said, “War Legate Draco’s telling the truth,


    Uncle Lennon, I don’t know what happened in between, but I can tell you for sure that my father’s


    corpse is in our home.”


    Lennon was startled, but Nadine grabbed his arm and said, “War Legate Draco’s telling you the truth,


    Uncle Lennon. If you don’t believe him, we could go into Grandfather’s study to find out the truth.”

    “But Uncle Chase has given strict orders that no one is to enter the house or they will die a horrible


    death,” Louis said.


    “she’s right!”


    “Chase forbade us from entering, so we’d be breaking the family rules if we go,” Lennon’s sisters said.


    Nadine looked at her aunts and asked, “Have any of you ever stopped to think why Uncle Chase


    refused to let us inside?”
