Chapter 1143
"Ahem." Luther subconsciously covered his thin lips with his hand to stifle his laughter.
Karl frowned. He knew it. Complaints were just inevitable whenever he called Michal.
"Mom, let me ask you. Has Cecelia ever been to our home and did she take a photo of an old photo?"
He got straight to the point.
"Yes, how do you know?" On the other end of the phone, Michal's voice raised a bit, "Mr. Gregory, you
wouldn't send someone to follow me, would you? What have you been up to recently? I haven’t seen
for such a long time. You used to work so hard that you never pay attention to your mother, now you
have a girlfriend, but you still never pay attention to your mother! I'll tell you what. If you do the same to
Julia, you're dead!"
"Ahem." Karl cleared his throat, and if he'd known he would not have put it on speakerphone.
Luther uncomfortably darted his eyes elsewhere. Michal sounded cheerful and spirited, and how could
she have given birth to such a dull and unsmiling son as Karl, but Michal's personality made him a
good match with Juanita.
He didn't realize that Cecelia had taken the photo at the Cole residence.
So who was the person in the photo?
"Mom, what I'm about to ask is important. Who exactly is the person on the photo?" Karl frowned.
"Oh, Mia Cole. you haven't heard of the name, I guess. She’s my aunt. For as long as I can remember,
my family has never been allowed to mention her. Anyone who mentioned it would get a good scolding
from my grandparents. So you don't know."
"She was such a beauty and she was even so gentle and knowledgeable. In the end, she married
Rodney, the military's commander-in-chief, and later died tragically because of hemorrhage during
childbirth."
At this moment, Karl and Luther both looked at each other.novelbin
The pupils of their eyes violently contracted.
So, that was it!
"Karl, you are well-informed, so what happened to the Heath family? Is Cecelia okay? The other day
Cecelia came to our home to pick up the invitations and suddenly mentioned Mia, so I searched with
her in the study for a long time and found the only remaining photo of Mia in an antique octavo box.
After she took the picture, she left. Just why would there be such an incident within the military."
"Mom, I'm not sure what's happened to the Heath family. I don't know exactly what's going on with
Cecelia now either. No one has been able to find out what's going on inside the military, since their
communication with the outside world has been cut off." Karl pursued, "You're saying that after Cecelia
took the photo, something happened to the military the next day?"
"Right. I saw the official announcement the next evening from the TV." Michal's voice trailed off, "Karl,
does the photo thing have anything to do with the military incident?"
"Maybe it's related."
"Karl, the Heath family and we are after all relatives. You need to help them. Especially Cecelia, I am
very worried about her."
"I know. I'm in a hurry. I'll hang up now."
"Hey, hey, hey, when are you going to come back and take a look at ..."
Before Michal could finish his sentence, Karl was already impatient to hang up the phone.
In the office, there was a steep silence.
It was so quiet that even the sound of the pendulum on the wall were clearly audible.
The sound of their breathing were deep and rapid.
They looked at each other, and their eyes were all clear.
