Chapter 498 - Elder Valdez found out about Jasper
"Yes, she knew everything. In fact she saw the video how her aunt was killed brutally. Do you think, Sophia would let it go without the proper revenge for her aunt?" Raymond asked.
Of course NO. Sophia is more connected to her aunt than her own parents. How will she let them go freely.
"Sophia joined military and your guess is right. She is indeed targeted by Braxton's. But there is another thing you should know." Raymond told.
Elder Valdez nodded his head….
He is already in deep thought. Did Raymond got close to Jean just because there is another ulterior motive or is it just because she is his cousin.
Raymond is a good person. Elder Valdez knew that but he couldn't help suspecting when Raymond started explaining everything about Sophia and his sister.
"Do you know Diana? I think you heard of her. She is called as pillar of this council" Raymond asked Elder Valdez.
"You are also from council…" Elder Valdez widened his eyes in shock when he asked Raymond.
"Yes, I am a council leader" Raymond chuckled.
Elder Valdez couldn't help but gape. "Council leader? Isn't it a unspoken rule that the potential child of council founders are elected as Council leader? That means…" he mumbled to himself.
Even Raymond is shocked….
Looks like his granduncle is totally aware of everything related to council…
"Yes, my dad is a council founder. So I am elected as Council leader" Raymond nonchalantly replied.
"In fact Jean should be elected as one because Jeff is not up to the mark. We are waiting for the right time…" Raymond smirked. Anything is worthless when compared to the expression on Elder Valdez's face.
"That means Jonathan Grey...no.. No. It is my daughter right? Sophia is one of the council founder…..Raymond tell me I am wrong" Elder Valdez asked horrified by the sudden surprise.
"No Elder Valdez, you are not wrong. Sophia is indeed a council founder. In fact she is the DIANA I am talking about. However there is no such rule that only council founder's children are allowed to become Council leader. To be frank we are just postponing Scott's promotion because he shouldn't know about any of these" Raymond said.
Scott cleared his throat, silently gesturing that he is still here. Raymond but in tongue and apologized him with his eyes.
"You will explain this to me later Raymond. How dare you….." Scott warned him but his warm tone made Raymond chuckle.
He knew that Scott is not at all interested in this rankings and other stuff. He already has strong hold in council…..
Meanwhile Elder Valdez sat rooted in his chair. The almighty iron lady of council is actually his daughter....
How many more secrets should he bear in this old age. He had enough since two weeks…
His heart should be really strong that he didn't get heart attack by now…
"Br….Braxton's….are they aware of this? Do they know that Sophia Valdez is the Diana." He asked his voice shivering.
"You should thank god that they don't know it. According to them Sophia Valdez is long dead. That is the reason she faked her death…." Raymond spoke.
"But once they find it the consequences will be adverse. You don't know how she made them shiver to death." Raymond continued.
"So even after faking her death and giving birth she still participated in council's works" Elder Valdez asked.
"Yes, she did and that is how she is killed. But the difference is enemies never knew that she is the Diana. They were there to kill Jonathan who is one of the council leader at that time. Once they find out Sophia is Diana, everything will come out and Jean, Jeff and Jasper will be exposed" Raymond told. He didn't forgot to spell 'Jasper' loud and clear.
"God! This is very dangerous" Elder Valdez sighed. His mind is still taking some time to proceed what have happened. So, he basically forgot what he heard.
"Wait! ! Who is Jasper." He asked after digesting all the news.
Raymond and Scott couldn't help but chuckle. Extremely genius persons like him will have less EQ.
"Well, take a guess grandfather. My mother in law is really full of secrets...I wonder how my wife will take all this shocks" Scott sighed half chuckling.
Elder Valdez felt his heart skip a beat. One grandchild became two. And now two turned into three.
"How old is my third grandchild" he asked. Taking all these shocks he no more had energy to react.
"Hehe...Jasper is just twelve. Sophia gave birth to him just six months before she died" Raymond chuckled.
"He is giving me hard competition with his sister. He is too sly and even before Jean could realize that he is her sister, he is already her favorite. If that brat comes I will be doomed" Scott sighed.
Now Jasper will also be coming here. Along with Jeff he will surely monopolize their sister.
"Did I see my grandson before?" Elder Valdez asked as his voice quivered.
"Yes, you saw him grandfather. He is the same boy you saw with Enrick and Iris. He is staying with them….your daughter is really very close to Richards family." Scott said.
"This weekend Iris is coming to country D. We will ask them to leave him here…." Raymond chuckled.
"So Rick and his sister are close to Jasper. But do he know about his maternal family" Elder Valdez asked.
"Well, he knew everything about his maternal family. He is just for you to welcome him" Raymond said.
"Then he will stay with us from now on" Elder Valdez chuckled happily.
He is going to have three grandchildren….
"Grandfather, but Jean don't know about any of these. We just have to wait till she give birth. But she will be very happy if Jas comes here" Scott said.
They talked for a while before going outside to talk about the marriage arrangements…
