Chapter 242 Earl's Lie
Back to the villa, Bella was uncontrollable to ask Roy, "Mr. Butler, do you know where Charles went?"
Roy smiled politely at her. "I don’t know, Miss. Brook. Ziv is responsible for Lord’s schedule."
Although his answer was at Bella’s expectation, she still felt somewhat upset.
Back to her room, she opened the album and looked at the family photo. The woman in the photo was really very similar to her.
Mom? Bella stroked the photo, felt a bit strange. In fact, she did not have any memory of her, but when she saw this woman, there was a familiarity that was rooted in her bones.
At this moment, she really wished to have memories of the past. Her father must treat her better than Len. Her childhood must not have passed under tease and blame.
This night, Bella sat alone very late, till she fell asleep on the table, Charles did not go home.
Charles and Ziv first went to the hotel where Earl stayed. Earl seemed to a few decades older. He was sitting on the sofa feebly and looking at Charles. "Lord, what do you plan to do now?"
Charles looked at him and asked, "What do you think?"
Earl shook his head. "I don’t know, don’t ask me. I am so anxious now, I can't think of anything other than going there directly."
Charles said, "Well, then we just go directly."
"But if we want to go, we should prepare 2 billion dollars as deposit. It’s not a problem for me if I am on Vancouver Island, but now I am not there. How can I have 2 billion dollars?"
Earl said desperately. "I have hedged for 50 million dollars since he phoned me, and it’s still far away from 2 billion dollars."
Charles said, "Can’t we use a cheque?"
If they wanted 2 billion cash, not to mention Earl was unable to prepare it in such a short time, even Charles wanted to transfer out such a large sum of money at once, it would be impossible.
Earl paused, "Can we?"
Charles then asked, "Did they mention on the video?"
Earl quickly turned on the video on his mobile phone and handed it over. "Look at it, I am too messy to analyze anything now."
Charles took over the phone. He saw that Katherine was tied to a pole on the screen. Her mouth was covered with tape. The panic in her eyes seemed not fake. It was obviously not designed beforehand.
People who took the DV did not show up from beginning to end, and the sound clearly had been processed. The content was the same as what Earl said before, and they did not require that 2 billion dollars must be cash.
Finally, in order to prove that the person they kidnapped was indeed Katherine, he also tore the tape on her mouth.
Katherine immediately shouted sharply. "Let me go. Do you know who I am? My father is Earl Spencer. My boyfriend is the King of the sea Charles Williams. If they found you kidnapped me, they would not kill you. Let me go."
The kidnapper immediately reattached the tape, and his camera turned to Katherine, who was still struggling. "At 8:30 tonight, bring the money, on Charm cruise ship in the high sea, see you."
In high see?
Charles really appreciated the kidnappers’ courage, how they dared to act on his territory.
Charles returned the phone to Earl. "Mr. Spencer, is going with me or waiting at home?"
Earl immediately stood up. "I want to go with you."
Earl looked very anxious and nervous all the way. Sometimes Charles talked to him, he was somewhat out of order.
Charles asked, "The video said that they suspected Katherine has special blood. Mr. Spencer, since you are the investor of Devenport, you must know what they mean by special blood?"
Earl was extremely anxious, he didn’t explain it clearly, “It’s a blood that can overturn Darwin’s Theory of Evolution.”
Charles glanced at him and he knew that Earl was unwilling to tell him the truth and smiled casually. "Turnover Darwin’s Theory of Evolution will just win a Nobel Prize. Many people are eager for this blood, it is definitely not you and me. If Mr. Spencer doesn’t want to tell me the truth, it seems right that I decided to not cooperate with Devenport."
Earl did not expect Charles to talk about this topic when Katherine was still in danger. He was a little disappointed of Charles as a father, but since he mentioned the cooperation first, Earl’s brain came alive.
But it was absolutely that he wouldn’t tell Charles the truth. The so-called best lies were half true and half false, making it difficult for people to identify.
Earl then smiled. "You are so smart." He coughed and said, "The reason why Devenport Research Institution which I invested has this name, it’s a scientist named Devenport once came up with a theory called the theory of Sea Creature Gene. It refers to the evolution of human beings from fish, not apes. From the embryonic growth of mammals, they observed that the embryo once had a fishtail growth process. I suspect that there may have human beings that evolved from fish in this world."
Charles raised his eyebrows. "What do you mean? You mean that some humans have evolved from apes, and some have evolved from fish?"
Earl nodded, this professional topic made him temporarily put Katherine's safety behind his head. He continued, "Because fish can live up to more two hundred years, but the average life expectancy of apes is less than seventy years old. Therefore, we suspect that humans who have evolved from fish also have a long life. This kind of fish has a gene with strong regenerative and self-curing function, and therefore we believe that humans who have evolved from such fish also have such ability. We call it the gene of a mermaid. The blood with such gene can regenerate constantly. What if it is used for biomedical purposes? It means that organ failure caused by leukemia can be cured, and all diseases will no longer be any problem."
Charles nodded thoughtfully. "This is indeed a very profitable business. But if we can only find one person, the blood of that person will be drained sooner or later. Even we sell the medicine at a high price, I am afraid that it is still a limited profit."
Earl disproved, "No, all genes are inherited. We can trace the source as long as we find one person."
Charles nodded and stopped talking.
Earl was really cunning, he transferred his focus on biopharmaceuticals and avoided the topic of finding mermaid under the sea. However, since he wanted to play, he would watch his show.
When the car arrived at the beach, the yacht had been ready which Ziv asked Roy to prepare.
Including the helmsmen, there were five people, who are all Charles’s bodyguards. It was obvious that Roy was a bit worried about Charles’s safety this time.
Roy smiled politely at her. "I don’t know, Miss. Brook. Ziv is responsible for Lord’s schedule."
