The Rise of the White Lotus-Chapter 570: Wheres the child?

"That's what Red said," After Ethan Lu exited the conference room, Lyrick Jiang came up from behind and relayed the reports he just received.

"I'll go to her myself." Nodding his head, a sharp glint flashed across Ethan Lu's eyes. Just the beginning of their all out investigation and the pieces were slowly coming together.

The more Ethan Lu hear about the result in each of his men's side, the more Dylan Lu's presence to him grew stronger. If Dylan Lu was truly involved in this, then Ethan Lu was afraid he could not let Dennis Lu apprehend his son as Ethan Lu would do it himself.

"But..."

"No buts. Ready the car, we'll go now." Without turning to Lyrick Jiang behind him, Ethan Lu affirmed. Hence, Lyrick Jiang could only bow his head and execute the order.

Same as Ethan Lu, Lyrick Jiang could smell the disaster that was about to occur in the Lu Family. Everyone knew the capabilities of the Lu, however, after Edward Lu's reign, tons of things happened and changed.

Still, now that Ethan Lu was the family head, the dreading tension that has always in the family was slowly building up. Extreme schemes were being done behind the scenes. Lives of others were being used just to bring down Ethan Lu.

With that thought, how could Ethan Lu forgive them? Granting that his family wasn't touched, yet a person like Ethan Lu would never in his life accept this type of scheme.

They could embezzle money from the company, sabotage Ethan Lu's plans, and so on, and Ethan Lu would repay them fair justice. But, having other people drag into this scheme, take someone as hostage were the biggest no no.

'Dylan... Lin... which of the two...?' As Ethan Lu headed back to his office, his mind gravitated who could be the person orchestrated this.

Regardless of the two, Ethan Lu had to make his move before Louis Lu does. Even if he needed to go extreme, he couldn't let this go out of hand than it already was.

When Ethan Lu arrived in his office, he stopped in the entrance momentarily. Inside the office, Dennis Lu was sitting on one couch while reading a magazine that was placed on his lap.

"What do you want?" Cold and unwelcoming, Ethan Lu closed the door behind him as he went straight to his desk.

Dennis Lu cleared his throat as she closed the magazine. Returning it on top of the small table, Dennis Lu set his eyes on Ethan Lu. "Do you know Avah returned?"

Upon hearing the woman's name, Ethan Lu's right brow arched. Hence, Ethan Lu turned his head to Dennis Lu as he leaned on the edge of his desk. "What about it?"

"So, you knew?" Seeing the lack of reaction from his nephew, Dennis Lu asked vaguely.

"Know that she returned or the fact that she was your mistress?"

"Is that what she said?" Arching his brows, Ethan Lu slightly raised his chin up as he crossed his arms across his abdomen.

"Where's the child?" After his meeting with Avah Tong, Dennis Lu was already suspicious why on earth she decided to meet him.

Obviously, he knew the woman and what's between them were nothing but a give and take relationship. Dennis Lu never loved Avah Tong and vice versa.

He supported Avah Tong's needs financially, and she satiate his lust. Therefore, it was not a surprise that they wouldn't get in touch again after the whole incident with Ethan Lu years ago.

However, she returned and was looking for a child that Dennis Lu knew should be with her. Actually, although Dennis Lu didn't love her, there was no doubt that the child was his.

Dennis Lu didn't want his illegitimate child to be an embarrassment in the future. His blood still runs in his veins. Thus, even if the child was the fruit of his infidelity, he would support yhe child willingly.

But now, he came to know that the child has been missing for years now. How could he not be enraged and Ethan Lu was the first person who came in his mind.

Despite that, there was a small part of Dennis Lu that doubt Avah Tong's words. The reason he confronted Ethan Lu.

"Uncle, do you really think I'd hide the child? For what?" Ethan Lu stared straight at his uncle. "Do you think I'd hide my cousin to spite you? Perhaps, you thought, I want that woman in my life again?" Tilting his head to the side, Ethan Lu asked sarcastically.

"Then, what happened that night?" Since Ethan Lu made sense, Dennis Lu clenched his jaw.

"Just like what you heard... and then a missing child. If the kid is not in your custody, he's not under my wing either." Slowly, Ethan Lu straightened his posture. "If I were you, ask the people who knew about this affair of yours — maybe, ask Auntie or... your dear son." Ethan Lu emphasized Dylan Lu's name which made the corner of Dennis Lu's lips curved downward.

Ethan Lu wouldn't be surprised if his cousin was involved in this. If Dylan Lu was, it only meant that he had been scheming behind while facading as some prince uninterested in the Lu's power struggle.

Just then, a knock was heard from the outside before it slowly opened, revealing Lyrick Jiang. "Director Lu," he greeted with a slight bow upon seeing Dennis Lu's figure. 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮

"Master, everything is ready." Lyrick Jiang informed politely and Ethan Lu nodded his head in understanding.

"I have to leave first, Uncle." Gesturing his uncle out, Dennis Lu humphed as he stood.

"Ethan, I won't let you off if I know you're involved with this." Dennis Lu warned as he stomped his feet out of the office. However, when he reached the door, his tracks stopped hearing Ethan Lu's emotionless words.

"Same. Uncle, stopped your corruption right now and focus on the development of the company as an executive director. I'll be cleaning the family — I won't be lenient this time." Despite saying this piece of threat, Ethan Lu contradicted it as he was surely being biased for warning him for the last time.

Dennis Lu just scoffed before he resumed on his tracks and left the office.

Ethan Lu heavily exhaled before he gestured Lyrick Jiang for them to go. "Let's go,"
