Chapter 378: Aftermath

Xavier School for the Gifted.

The kidnapping is over, but the effects of the incident are just beginning.

"Frost Electronics Executive Chairman: Winston Frost Mysterious Missing! ใ€‹

"Arkham Psychiatric Center in New York is on fire, casualties are being counted, and Christian Frost is suspected to have died!" ใ€‹

"NYPD's new director Gwen Stacy led a raid to arrest more than a dozen drug addicts, two of whom died of self-harm from drug overdoses, and it was revealed that Corlydia Frost was suspected to be one of the two! ใ€‹

Wave after wave of big news followed, and after reacting, the X-Men who immediately went to save people, Aยท The X-Men all went home empty-handed.

The school's internal infirmary is reserved for mutants and is inaccessible to ordinary teachers.

Edward and Emma lay on two beds, with Jeangree and Ilyana watching inside.

In the conference room next to it, the X-Men, Aยท The X-Men gathered here, and their faces were not very good-looking.

When something happened to the Frost family, for them, most of the similar things were: it is love to help, it is duty not to help, and if you don't help, your mood will not be too low.

But this time, Frost's events are too coincidental, the X-Men themselves are only good at dealing with mutant things, and it doesn't matter if they can't help, but Aยท The X-Men have always been falcons in the shadows, with a keen sense of smell.

Because of Iljana's relationship, Coulix helped investigate, but it was a step late, which added a bit of conspiracy to the matter.

Aยท The X-Men boss, Amanda Waller, is coming, so these guys are here waiting.

Infirmary next door.

Edward woke up slowly, Ilyana knew a lot, and went back to the corner to play with his phone with a few words of casual concern.

Jean Grey was a little more concerned and asked many comforting questions, but seeing that Edward's mental state was very healthy, she finally gave Ilyana a look, and left by herself, going to the conference room next door.

Ilyana's phone is a specific version of Edward's production, with a program installed to operate the "Demon Clone", ostensibly she is playing a game, but in fact she is manipulating the water demon Bazaar to arrange the problem of the border of hell.

Edward covered his head and rubbed his temples, "Seems to have something to say?" โ€

"You've seen everything you should have seen, and you want to leave?" Ilyana said without raising her head.

"In other words, if you don't know, you think you're driving." Edward stood up, walked to the window, looked out of the sky, had been kidnapped all night, and now it was dawn.

The sun is quiet, but it's a pity that Edward has no intention of appreciating "what do they mean?" โ€

"Are you going to pretend you don't know anything, or do you want to make direct contact?" Iljana asked.

The former pretended not to know, and the X-Men said that Edward was in a coma and didn't see anything, so everyone looked at each other and smiled when they met.

The latter has direct contact, that is, he knows about the X-Men and mutants, and in the future, things about mutants in the school can be appropriately opened to Edward.

If it was before, Edward would have chosen the latter, he arranged so much, itself was waiting for an opportunity to make contact, but now......

No time.

"I'm thinking about it, I'll give you the answer later." Edward said, "I'll go and make it easier." โ€

Iljana shook her phone, just as the screen was facing Edward.

Edward glanced at it, and it happened to be Bazaar exercising the authority of the Queen of the Borderlands of Hell as the Queen.

The queen of the borders of hell chose Basha as her stand-in and acquiesced in the Lord's presence.

The two tacitly looked at each other.

Edward took out his phone and looked at it casually, and found the news about Frost, he sighed, he knew all these things, but ......

The deaths of both are all related to a certain Martian, and there are traces of Winston's magic on their bodies, and the mirror beast that arranged for protection is not sure to kill Malafak, so they can only let it go.

In a lore game, Frost Electronic Technology is almost completely owned by some people, but only "almost".

There is one last possibility, but because of this, for this last possibility, some people are afraid that they will spare no effort to target Emma.

Edward stood by the bed in the hallway and stared at the sun while Edward watched on the blue bank and began to work on the "King of the Monsters" experiment.

Edward stayed for about ten minutes, and by the time he returned to his room, Emma Frost had woken up.

She was sitting on the bed, hiding her face with her hands and crying, Ilyana was leaning on the phone and frowning, when she saw Edward entering, she walked over and whispered to Edward, "Look for me over there, I have to go over, you can help take a look here." โ€

"Hmm."

"Pay attention to your mouth, Emma is in a bad mood, don't irritate her."

"I don't owe that much." Edward touched his chin.

"Yes!"

Iljana glared at him and left on her own.

Edward walked over to himself and sat down in the chair next to the bed.

"I thought about it for a moment, and we still have to talk."

"Can you wait?" Emma asked quietly.

"No, this matter is urgent, and it can't be delayed."

Emma looked up, and there was a hint of resentment in her eyes, and she didn't say a word, waiting for Edward to speak.

Edward fooled his hair twice, "You see, you're going to die if you're not careful, there's no time to grieve you, you have to make a choice." โ€

"What?"

"Do you still remember the thoughts I put together for you earlier? For the sake of the inheritance of the company, to deal with the three of you brothers and sisters, when he was a child, he did not hide the favor of Christian and Coritya, so they fell, because he was acting out his hatred for you and you also showed disgust for her, and you were safe. โ€

"I know I know, what are you trying to say?" Emma felt the urge to cover her ears.

The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the child wants to raise but the parent is not there.

There is no tragedy in the world like this, obviously she just knew her father's intentions, but she didn't even have a chance to say a word, and the two sides were separated forever.

"You see, your father can't take care of the company anymore, and there is no one to protect you.

Or, even when Winston was still managing the company, you voluntarily gave up your inheritance, because the atmosphere left the family, don't worry, don't get angry, force yourself to calm down, follow the train of thought I gave you, you think about it carefully.

If I hadn't stopped you after you ran away from home, what are you doing now? โ€

Emma forced herself to calm down, "Run away from home, and then, I will, away from family, away from everything, I don't have much savings, I will, part-time work?" โ€

"When your sister owns a company and you go to work with nothing, guess what you're going to face?"

Edward was smiling, but his smile made Emma's back sweat soak her clothes.

"Christian has been deposed by the scandal, Coritya has no inheritance because of drug abuse, and although you voluntarily gave up, you are still the only one who has the legal right to inherit."

"Think about your runaway again?"

If it weren't for Arkham's physician suddenly appearing in front of Emma, exposing Winston's concealment from him, and describing the matter so severely, Emma wouldn't have been stimulated into running away from home......
