Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

---- Chapter 3204 Philip looked calm as he said, "Mr. Owens Senior, Ms. Owens, I'm truly sorry for what has happened. But as | said earlier, the identity of the killer could not be disclosed for now. You can go back and tell Guillermo. If he's unhappy, he can come to me directly." Lorenzo was so burning with anger. "General Turman, are you trying to protect the person behind this? Even if you stayed silent now, do you really think the Owens family won't find out who the killer was later? Skylar was killed inside Martial Tower, and there were plenty of witnesses on the scene." Philip shrugged.

"Frankly, you don't even need to investigate to find out who the killer is. It's quite straightforward. But go ahead and investigate it your way; | won't say a word. The reason is simple: our military owes that man. He killed someone in our territory, breaking the rules, yet | have to pretend | saw nothing It's that simple." Lorenzo gnashed his teeth. "General Turman, as the head of the military, how can you say such a thing?" Philip's eyes narrowed. "Mr. Owens Senior, you are aware that | am the head of the military.

So who gave you the audacity to speak to me like that?" ---- The sudden surge of killing intent emanating from Philip jolted Lorenzo violently. He hastily lowered his head and said tremblingly, "General, | didn't mean to offend. But | beg you to understand my urgency and my demands! The Owens family and Mr. Vazquez will not let this matter rest easily." Philip snorted coldly. "Whether Guillermo lets it rest or not is his business. All | can say is that this Nieves family lad was simply unlucky. The one who killed him has done our military a great service.

So, you will find nothing here." Lorenzo's face twisted with fury as he pulled Mikayla along. " Mikayla, we're leaving!" Mikayla protested anxiously, "But Skylar's body..." Lorenzo roared, "Let it rot right here! The Nieves family will come to collect the corpse themselves. And when they do, | doubt anyone will be able to hold back from demanding the murderer pay with his blood! Since no one here will give us justice, then we'll have Mr. Vazquez speak for the Owens family!" Skylar was his prized future son-in-law, a key figure in helping the Owens family rise to the status of a noble house.

Yet now, he was dead. The resentment in Lorenzo's heart was overwhelming. He did not care a whit about Skylar's life or death. His only concern was ---- the powerful Nieves family that Skylar represented Once outside the military headquarters, Mikayla quickly dropped her earlier act of weeping and sniffling; it had all been a pretense. She said coldly, "Dad, I'll notify the Nieves family. | am, after all, practically their daughter-in-law now.

If I'm the one to report Skylar's death, | believe the Nieves family will spare no effort to come to Chetvine and handle this thoroughly." Lorenzo was about to respond when he saw several cars screech to a halt at the building's entrance. Then, several people got out of the vehicles in a rush. The person in front was none other than Guillermo! Lorenzo was overjoyed and hurried forward. "Mr. Vazquez!" Guillermo waved his hand dismissively, his face grim.

"| already know everything, Skylar was killed by Andrew in the Martial Tower." Lorenzo and Mikayla froze on the spot, too stunned to speak Guillermo said with a slight snarl, "The Owens family should keep quiet about this for now. Everything will wait until after I've met with Philip!" With that, he ignored Lorenzo and Mikayla completely. Then, ---- with his people in tow, he strode into the military headquarters building.
