Blood drops did not stop the growling of the stern man. The man stood up, not caring about the pain in the back of his hand. Innocent glass becomes a momentary impingement. The white floor mixed with blood did not make him feel a little relieved. A few disappointments were deep in his heart. Not knowing what to do, he did the same thing again to make his hands bleed.
"Darion! Stop that!" exciting Zion. He could not bear to see Darion hurt himself. Darion kneels, Zion doesn't understand what's really going on.
"Master, forgive me," replied Darion. His face was lethargic, he was not excited.
"Absolutely, I'm a shaman who can tell you what's going on if you don't tell me?" Zion sighed.
"I sent a lot of people to help Jay Abroad."
"Then? You failed?" ask Zion.
"They all disappeared without a trace."
"Without a trace?"
"really. I checked their positions, but I found no trace of them."
"Well, Jonathan's really something huh..." Zion clapped her hands, she was astonished by the ability the demon possessed.
"I've asked the FBI for help, it might take a little longer."
"What exactly is he planning? And who was he fighting?" ask Zion. "Don't don't..."
"What's up, Young Master? Did you suspect anything?"
"I think he's targeting all of us. He'll confuse everyone. And when we're off guard, he's looking for a loophole to destroy us all at once" Zion said.
"He really is a monster" Darion said.
"Yahaagh! If that's the plan, what should I do now?" Zion ruffled her hair in frustration.
"There's one way" said Wilson, who overheard their conversation.
"Grandfather!"
"Be aware of the main purpose" Wilson said.
"Jonathan's main destination?"
"He wants revenge on Anna's family. I've been finding out about the problem, but I still don't know."
"dither. Didn't Jonathan target me and Jay?"
"Do you remember playing chess?"
"What does Jonathan's plan have to do with Grandpa's chess?" Zion grunted annoyedly.
"Basic stupid! Don't underestimate the game of chess! Chess is a shortcut to attacking your opponent."
"Huh? What does Grandpa mean? If it's chess, there's a king, there's a..." Zion remembered something instantly.
"Now do you remember how to play chess?" Wilson grinned.
"So she..."
"To catch the king must get rid of everything around him, then when there is a gap, it can attack them at once even the King can not dwell" said Wilson.
"King here means Grandpa is Anna's family. Jay and I were the ones around them and they were harassing Jonathan indirectly. So, Jonathan tried to give us a warning at that time to let us off guard. When we let our guard down and think of Jay, that's when Jonathan gets rid of us one by one by taking advantage of Jay's current condition. But..."
"But he had no other choice because he was getting more and more urged by his grudges" Wilson said.
"So, now... Anna! I have to do something."
"Don't be stupid! If you make a slight misstep, Anna will get hurt."
"I knew. But we have no other plan."
"Then, what's your plan?"
"From now on, I'll show my fangs to that demon," Zion's eyes flashed sharply. There was no fear behind his face.

Nathan walked while wagging his cute tail, he jumped into the lap of Anna who sat daydreaming. The girl was shocked, but she smiled for a moment. Anna gently caressed Nathan. Nathan closed his eyes feeling a warm sensation from Anna's hand. But something is back to him. The girl took a breath to calm herself down.
Robert accidentally saw his daughter sitting alone. At first glance, he looked at Anna in silence. The man hesitated to approach Anna. Since the scene of the accident that occurred at Anna's wedding, they do not talk to each other and prefer to be strangers. There were a lot of things he wanted to talk about with the girl. Her hesitation made Anna aware of Robert's presence.
"I know there's something you want to say. Say."
"It's nothing" said Robert. He has a big ego. Anna sighed, smiling amusedly.
"Father, this is why our relationship never improves, if one of us does not try to be honest with each other, Anna said. Robert was a little tense.
"Everything's happened. There's nothing I want to talk about anymore."
"Then let Anna do the talking."
"What's that?"
"Do you trust Joe's brother regardless he's Dad and Mom's adopted son?" ask Anna. Robert is a little tense.
"Why do you ask that? You don't trust your sister?"
"Dad, I used to believe in Joe's brother, but now I." said Anna to a halt. He looked around to make sure it was safe. The girl breathed for a moment.
"What's wrong? Don't say something complicated! I don't like people talking like that."
"Anna just wanted to say from now on please pay attention to Joe's every step. Anna doesn't want you to regret it later" whispered Anna. "He's not the brother Joe we've known all along" he said, making Robert think.
"You suspect your own brother?"
"He's not my brother! Remember, Dad, who he is and how he got into our family. Anna, I hope you haven't forgotten that."
"Are you jealous of your brother? All this time, he's always treated you well. And now, you're trying to poison me into saying something bad about him."
"Dad, remember I'm your real son! As it should have been, a father trusted his own biological son more," Anna took a breath. "I know you're different from Mom from the way you think. Therefore, I said this to Dad. Please think again!"
"alright. I'll obey you this time. But if your suspicions prove nothing, I will not remain silent, even though you are my son."
"I knew. Anna just doesn't want me to regret someday trusting someone who will destroy our family" Anna said.
"Tell me, I'll hear it!" exclaim Robert.
"Does Dad remember how Brother Joe got into our family?" ask Anna. Robert did not answer. He was silent for a moment.
"At that time, your mother and I accidentally bumped into little Jonathan crying. After that, he begged to help her. He said he had no place to live."
"So, Mom and Dad raised Joe's sister because of that?"
"No. I rejected him and left him alone" replied Robert. Anna commented with a faint smile, not expecting her father to have done that to Jonathan.
"Then why does Joe live here?"
"Have you forgotten that he saved you?" ask Robert.
"Sister Joe saved me? Because what?" anna's head was dizzy to recall. Somehow, he felt there was a missing piece that he did not know.
"You forgot that what actually invited him to stay here was of your own accord?" said Robert.
"Huh? I told Dad to do that?" Anna doesn't believe it. From the beginning, he let a little demon in who was trying to destroy his family. "That can't be me," her inner self.
"It looks like you have to go somewhere for you to remember" Robert said.
"Where is that, Dad?"
"Kids' garden."
"All right, let's go!" exclaim Anna.
"Where are you going?" jonathan suddenly came.
"Ka..Brother Joe!" anna's face was pale. He had no idea whether Jonathan had heard them or not. But in a moment, he thought of a ridiculous idea.
"What's this?" jonathan asked with a frown.
"Will you take a walk with me?"
"Where?"
"Kids park. Suddenly I want to go there," Anna said with a grin.
"Kids' garden? Why suddenly?" inner Jonathan.
