Chapter 310 – PAIN
Reunion?
Lexus grumbled in his heart when he heard how Ramon called this meeting a reunion. Seriously, he wouldn't even acknowledge that creature named Leon as his father, so don't call this a reunion.
With annoyed steps, Lexus entered the room and headed for another room which was the exact place where Leon was being held.
Before coming in, Ramon had already told Lexus that Leon was in a not so good condition.
Lexus understood what Ramon meant by the phrase 'not so good.' His older brother must have vented a bit of his anger on Leon and made him a little miserable.
However, Lexus didn't mind that fact at all, because he didn't have any emotional attachment to this man named Leon, who turned out to be his real father, whom he only met a few hours ago.
If only Lexus didn't have so much trust in Ramon and knew his brother very well, of course he wouldn't have immediately believed what he said, because the facts that Ramon had just conveyed sounded so foreign and too extreme to be true.
Argh! But that can be thought about later.
Lexus tried to push all the thoughts that bothered him and tried to focus on the problems at hand now, namely; find out where Hailee is.
If it was true that Leon was behind all of this and he was the one who had kidnapped Hailee and attacked the Tordoff residence, father or not, he himself would be the one to teach that man a lesson.
No one was allowed to play with his family and Leon was not a member of the family that Lexus had in mind. He's just a stranger.
"I'd better go inside myself," said Lexus when they arrived at the small room where Ramon kept Leon.
"Are you sure?" asked Ramon. He didn't think Lexus was in a stable mental state.
"You're worried he'll hurt me?" Lexus asked back with a scornful tone. He then closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then spoke again in a calmer voice. "I will get information from him. No one is allowed to hurt my future nephew."
After saying that, Lexus then opened the door and ordered the two guards who were in the room to get out, leaving him alone with Leon, who was now curled up in the corner of the room in a state that was anything but good.
Lexus did not even flinch when he saw his sorry and battered figure. There was no pity or any other emotional feeling that surrounded him.
Leon, who heard the sound of the door being opened and thought it was Ramon who came back to ask him to tell him where his wife was, was quite surprised when he saw Lexus walking into the room.
His son looked at him with a cold and expressionless face. It was hard to know what was really going on in his mind.
Leon then tried to sit down and followed Lexus's footsteps with his eyes until he took a chair and pulled it forward so that it was right in front of Leon before sitting down calmly.
For a moment, silence filled the room, until Lexus spoke up.
"I can't believe that I was born to someone like you," said Lexus in a disdainful tone. Him sitting on the chair and Leon sitting on the dusty floor, made him have to glance down to be able to see Leon's eyes directly, and this had a great effect on the man, he felt belittled by his own son.
"Is that how you greet your biological father?" based on the first sentence from Lexus, Leon could draw the conclusion that he already knew Leon's identity as his real father, so, there was no need to hide anything anymore, right?
Hearing those words, Lexus raised his eyebrows and snorted. "I don't even think of you as my father."
The man before him was completely different from the Leon he had faced at the party last night. And remembering about the party again, Lexus felt like going home and taking a shower, scrubbing his body clean because this man had hugged him so tightly.
As for that hug, it was beyond disgusting.
And also his mother's expression when it happened. And it was only now that Lexus realized why his mother had such a facial expression.
He had no idea that reality and the reasons for it turned out to be much darker and bleaker than he had imagined.
"No matter how much you deny me, you won't be able to deny the fact that I am your real father." Leon is still adamant about it.
The pain in his groin and leg was excruciating, especially since a doctor came and stitched up the wound without anesthesia. Leon would remember this pain.
"Alright then, biological father." Lexus shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly. "Now tell me where is my sister-in-law? You certainly know who she is. Your assholes people have entered the Tordoff residence without permission."
Leon laughed loudly, as if Lexus had just told the funniest joke he had ever heard. "If I didn't tell Ramon about it, do you think I would tell you?" he asked.
"So you don't want to tell your biological child?" asked Lexus, the expression on his face showing disappointment, but of course it was just a pretense. "Think of this as a first request from your son that you haven't seen in a long time, how about it?"
"Oh, Lexus, I would give everything for you because you are my son, but as for this matter, it is a private matter between me and Ramon." Leon also followed Lexus' game and showed a disappointed facial expression.
Lexus scowled. "I feel like an outsider."
"Of course not. Because I did all this only for you." Hearing that Lexus felt nauseous. The second Leon told where Hailee was, it was a sure thing that he would pull this man's tongue out and cut it off, especially if he uttered such words again. "I like your name. Lis initially rejected the name. Lexus."
That meant his name was given by Leon.
Lexus vowed to change his name once this matter was resolved.
Meanwhile, outside the room, Ramon was leaning his body against the wall, next to the door where Lexus and Leon were talking. He closed his eyes as the pain in his head felt like it was going to kill him.
The kind of pain he would feel whenever his body was drained or under too much pressure and for now, the cause was both.
Ramon groaned softly as the pain intensified and his vision blurred.
And Ramon knew what would happen next…
