CHAPTER 862 THE TRUTH ABOUT PHANTOM

Leo and Karl were standing on the floor of the hospital.

The sun is warm at midday.

But the light shone on them without the slightest warmth.

Leo was silent for a long time, not knowing what to say for a while.

He could never have imagined that Karl and Aurora's marriage would end up like this.

All the truths he had learned before were true, but not all true.

Regardless of whether Karl marries Maisy, and regardless of whether Aurora has the ability to bear

children, the two will eventually move towards the ultimate end of the marriage.

A brutal truth was unexpected and justifiable.

This is the only way to explain the oddities in Karl and Aurora's married life.

From the very beginning, the two were enemies to the death!

Karl looked at Leo with calm eyes and said, "Now, can you understand why I look at you with such

displeasure?"

Leo is silent.

This was an inter-clan feud between the Walker Clan and the eight royal families, and he didn't want

anyone else to be involved in it.

If he put aside Leo’s status of son-in-law, Karl does not hate Leo, not at all.

Even the admiration in his eyes for Leo was not hidden in the slightest. It was not difficult to imagine

that if Leo had not happened to become his son-in-law, they would have been great rivals or

confidants.

"But why choose to settle in this way?"

After a long silence, Leo laughed bitterly, "There are many ways to retaliate in the world, why only

choose this kind of two-loss one?"

"Two-loss?"

Karl grinned, "How so?"

"I don't believe you got married out of a sense of spite!"

Leo's eyes became sharp as he stared at Karl and said, "And my mother-in-law is not a fool, you can

remember her and it is impossible for her to forget you, why would she be foolish enough to fall into

your trap?"

This question seemed to have struck Karl, and for a long time he fell into silence.

Suddenly, the corners of his mouth rose and he grinned, "Yeah, why?"

"You're right, I didn't marry Aurora by wishful thinking and full of hate."

Karl said with emotion, "I used to resent my father why he fell on a woman. I married Aurora with full of

resentment, and only later did I realise that the path of my marriage with her had taken an unexpected

turn."

"An accident? What kind of accident?"

Leo asked in surprise.

"I'm in love with this woman."

Karl looked at the blinding sunlight, as well as the blue sky and white clouds, and smiled lightly.

At these words, Leo's heart raced and he froze for a long time, his tightly clenched fist suddenly

loosened.

"I'm in love with her."

Karl looked at the sun and grinned, "I don't know if she was in love with me, maybe she was. Several

times I wanted to kill her while she was asleep, but I didn't do it in the end, I couldn't bear it."

"People's feelings change. You and Lydia slowly came to this day from enemies?"

Karl looked at Leo with a smile and said in a very calm manner.

Leo did not say anything, except, his eyes were slightly red.

He admits that hearing this has moved him in an inexplicable way inside.

Not only for himself and Lydia, but also because of his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

"I only thought of revenge and even laid out everything, but I only neglected one thing ---- my state of

mind."

Karl sneered and said frankly, "You should have understood how I felt at that time. What would it be like

for a woman who is high and mighty to fall in love one day? You saw it, and so did I at that time."

"I fell inexorably, even thinking to myself, screw the family hatred, so what if she's the daughter of an

enemy, I love her enough to tolerate everything about her."

"But you still hurt her."

Leo said.

"Yeah, I still hurt her, she left S City, converted to Buddhism and lived in seclusion. Do you think I

won?"

The smile on Karl's face turned bitter as he asked at Leo.

Leo was silent for a long time and shook his head.

"You lose."

"Yeah, I thought I had won, but really, I still lost." copyrighted © content.

Karl couldn't help but laugh, but a tear slowly slipped down his face as he did so.

"From the moment she married me, she won. She had long since seen that I was a descendant of the

Walker Clan, that my father and indeed the whole family were headed for extinction because of her

mother, yet she still married me without a second thought."

"To atone for sins?" Leo asked.

"To atone for sins."

Karl said with certainty: "What kind of cause sows what kind of fruit, and she used herself as bait to

help me and take revenge on her. Only now did I realize that it was destiny."

Leo was astonished.

Karl gave him a look and said, "This destiny began when my father married her mother, otherwise, do

you think her mother could have killed my father?"

"......"

Leo was silent, his heart full of frustration.

Yes, could the other side have won if one side hadn't allowed him to do so?

Karl's father loved Aurora's mother, so on the night of his wedding, he let her off the hook and allowed

her to kill him, causing the Walker Clan to fall apart.

Aurora married Karl, she allowed that. From the beginning, she knew that Karl wanted to take revenge

on herself, but she did not stop it, but made it happen.

"I hope that by Lydia's generation, all grudges will be ended."

Karl looked at Leo and said seriously, "No more scourges for the next generation!"

After saying this, Karl seemed burned out and walked away from Leo.

Leo understood something, and a flash of pain appeared on his face as he cried out.

"Father-in-law! You're not a Phantom, but you have to be on the side of the Phantom, don't you?"

Karl stood still, his body trembling.

But he did not turn back, but continued righteously on towards the front.

Leo's eyes were red and his fists were clenched so tightly that he was unaware even of his nails being

embedded in his flesh.

Tears fell from his eyes, and Leo's face was filled with pain and resignation.

Pained by a dark future!

Resigned to the harsh reality!

He asked about Karl's relationship with Phantom, but Karl told the story of his and Aurora's ----

seemingly oxymoronic answer, but it explained the cause and effect of the whole thing.

Karl has a cousin.

After the demise of the Walker Clan, he and his cousin became the only survivors of the Walker Clan.

They carry the rise and fall of the Walker Clan on their shoulders!

So the Phantom was born, gathering the strongest people in the world, conducting scientific

experiments, and raising their strength in order to one day take revenge on the eight imperial families.

Phantom is the Walker Clan!

One day, they will return, and by then, his father-in-law will be the first to bear the brunt, fighting for the

Walker Clan and shedding every last drop of blood!

Leo will certainly prevent it, and so they will be on opposite sides.

One is Lydia's father.

One is the lover of Lydia.

When two tigers fight, one is bound to get hurt.

Did Leo kill Karl with his own hands, or did Karl kill Leo with his own hands?

Leo does not know.

But what he knew was that, either way, Lydia was the one who suffered the most.

Leo went limp and sat down on the floor.

Looking at the vast and endless sky, for the first time, a feeling of powerlessness towards fate grew up

in his heart.
