Mekhi found himself without words.
Nathan, who had refrained from punishing him for years, revealed an unexpected streak of cruelty.
Mekhi’s limbs quivered and he remained silent.
Seemingly attuned to Mekhi’s mounting fury, Nathan jested, “Can’t bear it anymore? You’re free to resign.
Leave now and return to thefort of your home.
”
He wanted him to resign voluntarily?
“Apologies, sir.
I’ll reflect on my performance andmit to more rigorous training in the future.
” Mekhi was seething with anger inside.
“Great.
” Nathan pulled open the drawer again and brought out another timer.
With the time duly set, he positioned it within Mekhi’s line of sight.
The ordeal went on.
Meanwhile, Noelle remained in a deep sleep, induced by two tranquilizers administered the previous night.
With Nathan’s ID card, Lucinda and Cyrus transported the unconscious woman to theboratory.
Shortly after they took their leave, Sally arrived at the Paynes’ house.
Her two apanying bodyguards shadowed her closely, causing her a little difort.
“Well, this is the Paynes’ house.
I won’t be in any danger.
Just wait for me in the garage.
I’ll be back shortly after a quick check.
”
Both bodyguards didn’t budge.
“Miss, under your brother’s orders, our duty is to protect you.
If any harm befalls you, we’re in trouble.
So, we’re staying put.
”
Sally red at them unhappily, but she didn’t say anything as she was also scared of Mekhi.
She proceeded past the winding alleys to NSL Fairy Land.
At the door, Abel informed her, “Miss, Mr.
and Mrs.
Payne are currently out.
”
“Any idea where they went?” Sally inquired.
Abel shook his head.
“They didn’t mention it.
”
“Did they mention when they’ll return?” she pressed.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.
Again, Abel shook his head.
“No.
”
Sally sighed.
Facing the two bodyguards, she exined, “You heard him.
It’s not that I don’t want to help, but without Lucinda here, there’s little I can do.
”
