INTERVIEW (II)

"BUT I want you to," Luo Yan said with a smile, purposely trying to get a rise from the other. "You see, your father invited me here to investigate what happened 20 years ago. He believed that one of his children planned what happened and deliberately burned the house to kill Richard. And you're one of those children, are you not?"

"Stop!" Charles shouted. "I will never do something like that! I—Richard is my brother. I wouldn't hurt him the same way I wouldn't hurt my father."

"Hmm… but your father didn't seem to think so," Luo Yan said. "How old are you back then, 15, 16? You must be quite diabolical if you turned out to be the mastermind."

The other violently rapped on the desk with his fist. The impact immediately caused wounds on his knuckle. "Don't try to even suggest that I would dare do so! Richard is the only one who treated me like a real brother. If I were to off any of my siblings, then, I'd rather kill Edward."
