“Sorry.”
Paige walked over and said apologetically. Before that, she really thought that the Davis family was the biggest person behind the scenes.
Mitchell is the head of the Davis family. With a little thought, he understood where this conjecture came from, and he couldn’t help but say, “The Davis family needs money. They don’t need to steal or rob, they just need the AS schizophrenia gene.”
The AS schizophrenia gene is present in their family, and the members of the Davis family generally have high IQs, so gaining wealth is not a difficult task for them.
The difficult thing is not having a good body.
“I was narrow-minded,” Paige walked over and respectfully handed Mitchell the teacup, apologizing.
“I can guess why you would suspect the Davis family, reasonable suspicion, nothing.”
Mitchell didn’t mean to blame her, and looked at her kindly, “But you believe Grandpa. Grandpa said the Davis family has never done anything like this, and they haven’t. Grandpa wouldn’t lie to you.”
Paige nodded firmly, “Yes.”
She had no doubts.
With Enrico there, she believed Mitchell wouldn’t lie to them.
Enrico sat there with an expressionless face. After a long while, he picked up the antique bronze ring again and lightly raised the corner of his eye. “You know this ring.”
Mitchell had reacted the moment he saw the ring.
Paige stood aside and quietly watched Mitchell.
Mitchell stared at the ring on Enrico’s hand, his expression suddenly becoming a bit solemn. “Enrico, Paige, listen to Grandpa. It happened a hundred years ago, and everyone who was involved is dead. Don’t investigate.”
“Grandpa,”
Paige called out to him, her gaze serious, “I’m not trying to find out for revenge or anything, but the Folsom family has countless wronged spirits, and there should always be a truth to comfort them, but now… the Folsom family doesn’t even know how many participants there were back then.”
This is a painful thing for the Folsom family.
In the past, there was nothing to investigate, and now, there is room to investigate, so why can’t they investigate?
“…”
Hearing this, Mitchell lost his voice. He lowered his eyes, as if thinking about something, his expression heavy.
“You know something, don’t you?” Paige looked at him.
The room was silent.
Enrico looked at Mitchell coldly, “How much do you know, and how much do you want to hide?”
Mitchell’s expression became even more complex. After a long while, he raised his hand, took the ancient bronze ring from Enrico’s hand, looked at the strange snake head with its tongue sticking out, and said, “Do you believe in curses?”
Hearing this, Paige was stunned for a moment, turned her head and glanced at Enrico, very puzzled, “Curse?”
“I know, you young people are atheists, but I, have personally seen curses.”
Mitchell looked at the ring in his hand, lost in thought, wondering what he was thinking about. “I saw a person who was cursed by a person who kept the commandments, and the result was that the whole person turned into a pool of blood.”
“Are you telling me ghost stories here?” Enrico sneered.
What era is this, and still cursing? How ridiculous.
“Who was cursed? And who was the keeper of the commandments?”
Paige asked in puzzlement, taking the magazine off the coffee table and flipping open the picture inside, pointing at the cloaked man and asking, “Is this the person?”
Mitchell looked over, and in an instant, his deeply wrinkled eyes were filled with horror, and his finger holding the ring began to tremble.
Paige realized that her previous assumptions were really wrong.
This was not a figure that made the 82 family members fear, this was clearly a man that even the heir of the Davis family would be afraid of.
The next second, Mitchell turned his head away and said with deep concern, “Paige, really don’t investigate.”
“…”
“I know you will think what I said is superstitious, but that’s because you haven’t seen it with your own eyes.” Mitchell said in a very serious tone, “Restarting the truth of a hundred years ago will restart the curse of a hundred years ago.”
“…”
“Many people will suffer from the calamity, and that’s not what you want to see.”
Mitchell squeezed the ring in his hand, “Give me this ring, I will destroy it, even if it is just a replica.”
“The curse from a hundred years ago?” Paige was unwilling, but she only got such a specious answer, “You mean the Folsom family was wiped out, and it was related to the curse? If it was a curse, then why did 82 people need to go together to massacre them?”
A curse? Just curse the Folsom family to death, why unite?
If it’s man-made, what does it have to do with a curse?
Mitchell couldn’t help but frown when he saw that he couldn’t convince Paige.
“Grandpa, tell us everything you know,” Paige pleaded, feeling that Mitchell knew a lot.
“You must find out?” Mitchell asked her.
“I must.”
Having come this far, and with so many people committing suicide one after the other, Paige admitted that she was increasingly curious to know the truth and find out who was behind the killings.
“Even if it costs you dearly?” Mitchell looked her straight in the eye.
“What?”
“You may lose people you don’t want to lose,” Mitchell said with a grave face and every word heavily accented.
“…”
Paige froze there, not knowing what to say for a moment.
“Bang!”
Enrico’s face was grim, and he kicked the side of the coffee table with a heavy foot. His eyes glared angrily at Mitchell, “Who are you trying to scare here?”
“Enrico…”
Paige frowned at him and looked at him, signifying that he should not treat the old man in this manner
Mitchell stood up, holding the replica ring in his hand, “I can only say this, I hope you will listen to what I have to say and stop investigating, otherwise, more and more people will die.”
After saying this, Mitchell lifted his foot and walked out.
Paige tried to stop him, but he didn’t stop and walked out of Rose Estate.
Paige stood there, putting her hand on her arm, and realized that her arm had become cold at some point. It might be because of the sentence – you will lose the people you don’t want to lose because of this.
For some reason, a chill crept up her back.
Then she was pulled into a warm embrace.
She looked up, and Enrico was standing in front of her, expressionless, looking at her. “You actually believed what he said?”
“I…”
Paige let out a sound, and realized that her voice was a little hoarse. After a long while, she said, “I saw how serious Grandpa looked.”
Serious… Every word sent a chill down her spine.
“A hundred years ago, Country A was in a state of chaos, with more people dying than being born. It was normal for strange things to happen in such an environment. He was just possessed,”
Enrico said coldly, lifting his hand to hold her cold face, “Don’t think nonsense.”
Paige leaned against his embrace, the coldness of her body gradually covered by the warmth from his body. She was lost in thought for a while, “It’s true, the more backward the time, the more there are claims of miracles and curses, but they are all false. I just don’t know why Grandpa is so convinced that he is afraid to tell us more.”
“It’s not hard to get him to talk, just find the key to turning someone into blood and water instantly,” Enrico said.
Paige was speechless, ‘You’re not thinking of doing an experiment like that, are you?”
