Chapter 697 Tom’s Secret
“I think his name’s Tom Forrest. I’m not sure where he’s escaped to,” Kelvin said. “Tom Forrest? The
name sounds familiar.” Je rry was momentarily stunned. He was rubbing his chin when he exclaimed, “I
remember it now! I received a call from Lacey today, and she seemed to have mentioned Tom Forrest!”
“What? How would she know Tom?” Kelvin asked, surprised.
“She said that Tom was the one who made your nephew blind.” Jer ry remembered everything.
He told his two sons the details of the incident.
“I guess it’s true. Tom is the son of Kael Forrest, the Kael Forrest of Greenton from West City!” Kelvin
nodded and said.
“That’s right. Lacey’s death has a lot to do with Tom!” J erry said menacingly. “F uck! We let him get
away! Tom must die!” Zane looked grim.
“I understand that the two of you want revenge. However, you must keep it a secret. You can’t let
anyone know about our recruitment of the expert martial artists,” Jerr y said.
“Don’t worry. I’ll definitely send a few experts to obliterate Tom silently! Oh right. Dad, do you know
where Tom’s at?” Kelvin asked.
“I heard that Tom was severely injured and that Caspian brought him back to a hospital in Southlake
City,” Je rry responded.
“There must be quite a lot of soldiers near the hospital. You two must be cautious. when carrying out
your tasks.”
“Don’t worry. We have a lot of experts in Skyarch Palace. It’ll be a piece of cake to get rid of Tom!”
Kelvin said smugly.
In recent years, the Andrews family had continuously recruited expert martial artists and established an
organization called Skyarch Palace.
“It’s better for you to exercise prudence. Didn’t you two say that Kael has a weapon called the Peerless
Treasure Blade? His son seems to be very powerful as well,” Je rry exhorted.
“It’s true that Kael is very powerful, but it was only because he had the peerless. treasure blade. Now

that the blade is in our possession, there’s no way that Tom would be better than his father,” Kelvin
said.

“In any case, it’s better to be vigilant in everything. Your every move should be inconspicuous. Also,
Xavier must be killed as well!” Jer ry instructed.
“Xavier? Didn’t they say he’s been imprisoned? Besides, he’s on our side. Why would we need to kill
him?” Kelvin asked, surprised.
“At first, Lord Caspian planned to hand him over to the relevant departments in Churron. However, in
the end, Lord Caspian unexpectedly brought him to Southlake City for trial. He might expose us, so he
must be killed!” Jer ry said through gritted teeth.
“Okay. We have our men in the Inspector General’s office. We can intercept from inside and kill him!”
Zane said.
“You’ll be in charge of this task. You must deal with him as soon as possible!” Jerr y said.
“Got it!” Zane nodded.
Meanwhile, at Southlake Hospital, Miranda was too exhausted and she fell asleep on the edge of the
bed.
Tom and Aria were not sleepy. They found the atmosphere strange!
“Let me ask you something, Tom. You’re so good at fighting. Have you ever practiced martial arts?”
Aria asked all of a sudden.
“I’ve never practiced martial arts. I’m just stronger than most.” Tom was stunned for a moment before
answering swiftly.
Aria’s sudden question caught him off guard.
“Stop fooling me. How could you be so powerful if you’ve never learned martial arts before?” Aria did
not believe Tom’s words.
“You might not know about this, but great strength can do wonders!” Tom said. with a smile.
A few months prior, Greenton was destroyed by a group of expert martial artists. Tom managed to flee
to Southlake City under the protection of his father.
He had been staying with his distant relatives. He kept his identity hidden to avoid suspicion.
“Do you have a powerful mentor teaching you?” Aria asked again.
“No. I’m self-taught.” Tom shook his head.

Obviously, he could not simply expose his background.
“I don’t believe you. How could you possibly reach this level yourself?” Aria sized Tom up.
“Let’s not talk about me. What about you? How did you get into Task Force Rose? “Tom asked, quickly
changing the topic of discussion.
“This is classified information. I can’t tell you.” Aria shut his question down.
Everything about Task Force Rose was confidential. Earlier, she had to reveal her identity as she had
no other choice.
“By the way, you mustn’t tell anyone that I’m a member of Task Force Rose,” Aria said coldly.
Tom nodded. Then, the two had nothing else to talk about anymore.
Caspian was awoken by the ringing of his cell phone.
It was a call from Sylvia.
“What’s the matter? Why are you calling me so early in the morning?” Caspian asked in a displeased
tone.
“Lord Caspian, the interrogation department called. Xavier’s dead!” Sylvia said.
“What? He was fine, so why did he suddenly die?” Caspian asked, shocked.
“I heard from them that Xavier was weak and sickly. As soon as the torture started, he couldn’t take it
and died all of a sudden!” Sylvia said.
“How could this just happen randomly? Perhaps someone wanted to kill him to silence him? Have you
investigated clearly?” Caspian said with his brows knitted.
“We’re investigating,” Sylvia replied.
“Okay. Report to me once you have updates,” Caspian said before hanging up the phone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt this moment, Willow had also woken up.
“Who’s bothering you so early in the morning, hubby?” Willow said drowsily.
“Who would it be other than Sylvia?” Caspian said.
Hearing this, Willow did not question him further. Sylvia must have some official affairs to report to
Caspian.
Then, both of them got out of bed, washed up, and walked out of the bedroom.
At this moment, Sherry was already busy in the kitchen.
“Why didn’t you sleep in longer, Sherry?” Willow asked.
“I’m worried that you youngsters aren’t going to have breakfast, so I got up to make you something to
eat.” Sherry had a happy smile plastered on her face.
“You don’t have to get up so early. From now on, leave breakfast to me and Caspian,” Willow said.
“Both of you already have so much on your plates. You two can get more rest if I’m the one to prepare
the meals,” Sherry said.
“Willow, I’m sure Mom is bored. Since she wants to, let her be in charge of it,” Caspian stepped forward
to say.
Caspian felt at ease knowing that his mother and Willow had a harmonious relationship with each
other.
Breakfast was ready, and everyone ate together. Cecilia and Zoey happened to have woken up as well.
“Caspian, when will I be starting school in Southlake City? I’ve already missed several days of classes,”
Cecilia asked while eating.
“Due to the war in Southlake City a while back, school has just resumed classes. I’ll arrange it as soon
as possible,” Caspian replied.
“That’s good, then. I’m just afraid that if I waste too much time, I won’t be able to keep up with my
studies.” Cecilia nodded.
“I’ll definitely help you make the arrangements for school,” Caspian said.
“Caspian, there are ruins everywhere in Southlake City, Southlake Corporation was also destroyed by
the bombs. When can we rebuild Southlake City?” Willow asked.
