Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 948

Grandpa Brooks had checked out all the people who knew of his grandson and his wife. He found that the couple was kind and well-connected.

Even their business rivals had high praise for them, so it was impossible for them to have offended anyone at all.

It was even less likely that they had any enemies who would go to the extent of assassinating them.

Only at that time did his back suddenly turn cold when he recalled the incident.

However, he was only suspicious and had no substantial evidence.

Up until he found the car repair shop.

Three days before the accident, his grandson and his wife had gone to a garage to have their car repaired, and the person in charge of fixing their car was an old mechanic named Jack Lennon.

At that time, Jack Lennon was almost 50 years old and was very skillful. He was well known and had regular customers who were willing to have their cars repaired by him.

Grandpa Brooks’ grandson and his wife were introduced to Jack by an acquaintance. They heard that he was good and skilled, so they went to him to fix their car's engine problem.

Jack readily agreed to do so, and indeed, the car was repaired quickly. After the repair, the car had no issues.

The Brooks couple were very satisfied, paid him, and drove away with the car.

It was a holiday then, and they had planned to take a drive to visit Grandpa Brooks who lived in the countryside.

No one would have imagined that the car would be involved in an accident on the road…

The police also investigated the garage, but due to lack of evidence and the fact that the car had burned down made it impossible to prove that someone had tampered with the car, so the investigation was dropped.

However, Grandpa Brooks knew that someone must have tampered with the car.

That was because when he traced it all the way to the garage and met Jack Lennon, he understood everything.

Genetics was undoubtedly the most fascinating thing in the world. A person who was dead for decades had suddenly returned to the world one day and stood in front of him again.

Until that moment, he did not know that the infant child had not died.

Not only did the baby not die, but he had survived and became the most famous and skilled car mechanic in the neighborhood.

He hid in plain sight for so many years without a sound not because he had forgotten his hatred, but because he was waiting for the right moment.

The time for his vengeance had arrived.

The other party did not know of his identity and even took the initiative to hand over their means of travel to him.

How could he miss such a good opportunity?

Thus, he secretly tampered with the car's brake pads and did something that outsiders could not see.

The result was just as he expected, the Brooks couple died.

He had finally avenged his parents’ wrongful murder.

Although Jack did not kill Grandpa Brooks directly, he knew that this would be far more heartbreaking to the old man.

When Grandpa Brooks found Jack, he did not hide and even generously admitted that he had killed the couple.

He originally thought that Grandpa Brooks would kill him.

However, Grandpa Brooks did not. After all, he was an old man and made an impulsive mistake back then. He had since been repenting and blaming himself all these years.

Grandpa Brooks had thought about it many times, wanting to atone for his sins, but he never imagined that it would be in this manner.

Perhaps this was all fate. Grandpa Brooks made Jack Lennon an orphan, so Jack made him see his children and grandchildren die before him.

Grandpa Brooks nodded his head.

This time, they all finally understood why he had refused to take the jade out.

Gregory said sternly, "How about this, you give us the jade and we'll help you rescue your great-granddaughter? What do you say?"

Grandpa Brooks looked up at him and sneered.

"Do you think I wouldn't save her myself if there was a way? The man hid Flora away. I’ve searched for a long time but still couldn't find her, so how can it be so easy to save her?"

As soon as he said this, everyone was silent.

Nell asked, "Was Grant Lennon the one who just came to see you?"

Grandpa Brooks nodded his head.

"How did he contact you? Phone?"

"No. Every time he wanted to find me, he would send someone to put a note under the rock behind my house, so I’d know it was him."

Nell felt confused and probed.

"Didn't you ever suspect him? With your skills, it won't be hard to catch him. Then his life will be in your hands and you won’t have to worry about him not letting her go."

Grandpa Brooks laughed at himself.

"How could I not know that? But that kid’s determined. He won’t let her go even if he dies. He also said that if he dies, Flora will also die. At that time, the two of them will die together and become a perfect ghost couple. How can I agree to that? So I thought I'd wait until you guys left before giving it to him, but I didn't expect you guys to come back all of a sudden."

Nell pursed her lips and said frankly, "Grandpa, to tell you the truth, we'll take that piece of jade anyhow. Your great-granddaughter Flora's life is important, but Vickie’s life is just as important. We're not asking you to give up Flora to save Vickie, but we just hope you'll agree so that we can think of a win-win solution. How about that?"
