Chapter 88 Throw out
Genesis's POV:
"What's wrong? You look terribly pale."
Eli held me with concern, checking my wounds up and down.
I pressed my lips together, suddenly having an impulse to tell him about my parents. Would he believe what I said? Would he help me find out who the real killer was?
"I'm fine." I lowered my eyes and shook my head, ultimately not saying the words.
I didn't know the truth about what happened back then.
Was it Christian or Jordan who ordered my parents' death? Or... was it a decision made by the entire Martinez family together?
Before I confirmed the truth, it was better not to tell him.
I would wait until I investigated everything clearly.
After the examination confirmed I had no other problems, Eli took me back to the Martinez villa.
As soon as I entered, I saw several burly men standing at the door. They seemed to be Jordan's men.
As soon as they saw Eli, they walked forward and restrained him.
"The Don wants to see you in the study."
This formation didn't look like good news. My heart immediately tensed up. Had Jordan seen the video?
I hesitantly followed. Seeing my worried expression, Eli raised his eyebrows casually.
"I'm fine. Just go to the room and wait for me."
I bit my lip and silently followed behind him.
I didn't expect the video incident to explode at this critical moment. It was too sudden.
I saw Eli being pushed into the study. Jordan held a whip and with a sharp crack, he struck him hard.
The crisp sound of the whip rang out. I couldn't help but tremble, watching as a long bloody mark was drawn across Eli's back.
"You bastard!"
Jordan wanted to strike again, but Eli was agile and quickly dodged his whip.
Jordan became even angrier. "You dare to dodge! I'll whip you to death!"
Eli dodged skillfully and questioned with dissatisfaction, "What are you doing? Why are you hitting people right away?"
Jordan heavily slammed the whip on Eli's body, breathing heavily as he scolded loudly.
"You dare ask me? You made such a big mistake! I wish I could shoot you!"
He pressed a switch and played the video on his phone for Eli to see.
Eli's POV:
Seeing the surveillance footage of me shooting Rebecca playing, my expression immediately darkened.
I had clearly destroyed this surveillance footage. How could it still appear in Jordan's hands?
"You knew Rebecca was Henry's lover, yet you had an unclear relationship with her and even shot her! You rebellious son!" Jordan looked at me furiously, but I became calm instead.
Since I dared to do this, I was prepared for it to be exposed.
I sneered. "Just a woman. So what if I killed her? Besides, she was a mistress shared by Christian and Henry. The order for her to seduce me that day was given by them together."
Christian had long been in cahoots with Henry. Naturally, I wouldn't be soft on them.
"What nonsense are you talking? It was clearly you..." Jordan wanted to say something more, but I interrupted him mercilessly. "It was clearly Christian who embezzled the family's money and couldn't fill the gap, so he set his sights on the drug business I was responsible for, wasn't it?"
Jordan fell silent for a moment, obviously already knowing about this.
I sneered mockingly.
At that time, I was in charge of a batch of drug business. Christian wanted to hijack my goods, so he sent that woman to seduce me, trying to extract information about the cargo arrival.
He just didn't expect that I knew their plan from the first day that woman approached me.
Not only that, I deliberately used her to send false information to Christian.
When Christian brought a large group to hijack the goods, all he saw was an empty dock and a mocking letter I deliberately left behind.
He was so angry he almost vomited blood, but could only swallow it hard!
"You!" Jordan pointed at me angrily. "It wasn't enough that you killed her, you also made her deliver false information to Christian, calculating against your own brother! Besides, Henry is my confidant. What you did is simply splitting the family!"
I reached for the ashtray on the desk and suddenly smashed it heavily to the ground. The loud noise silenced Jordan.
The anger accumulated in my heart over the years rapidly expanded, completely snapping my tense nerves!
I stepped on the scattered glass shards and slowly walked to Jordan.
I looked at him coldly. "Christian attacked me first, then I fought back. If his plan hadn't failed, you probably wouldn't have known he embezzled so much money, right? He can scheme against me, but I can't fight back?"
Although I had long known about Jordan's favoritism, seeing it displayed so nakedly now, I still found it extremely ironic.
Jordan's expression stiffened for a moment, and a flash of guilt appeared in his eyes.
Even so, he still stubbornly retorted, "You're brothers! If you weren't thinking about seizing Christian's power, why would he target you like this?"
If the occasion weren't wrong, I would really laugh out loud.
This was the first time I knew a person could be biased to this extent.
I looked at Jordan with a cold smile. "What kind of brother is he to me? My mother only gave birth to one child, me. He's just a bastard."
With these words, the entire study fell silent.
I had known this secret for many years, just never said it out loud.
After marrying my mother, Jordan wasn't faithful. He even had Christian with his lover before my mother got pregnant.
After my mother gave birth to me, she died. Jordan naturally brought Christian home and even announced he was the underboss!
How ironic!
All these years, I had coldly watched Jordan constantly protect Christian. Even when he tried to kill me several times, it was deliberately covered up.
Ever since I learned about this, Jordan was no longer my father. He was just the Don of the Martinez family, someone who would eventually be replaced by me.
My aggressive approach made Jordan step back two steps, his eyes full of shock.
"You... how do you know these things?"
When he brought Christian back to the Martinez family, I was just a baby. I shouldn't have known any of this.
But he forgot that even though my mother died, there were still people in the Martinez family who had received her kindness and told me everything.
Not to mention, he never really tried to hide this secret.
Jordan glared at me in exasperation. Perhaps only at this moment did he realize that the baby I once was had grown up, grown up enough to threaten him and his beloved bastard.
"Since you can't let go of these past events, then get out of the country!"
Jordan supported himself on the desk with one hand, breathing heavily.
"Go to Europe! The farther the better! Never come back! Otherwise I'll kill you!"
