However, if Nathan were to pinpoint Ronan as the suspect and seek an international warrant for his arrest to bring him back to Cadiered, it would likely trigger a fresh wave of panic.


    Throughout his time in prison, Mylo gained insight into many matters.


    “I’m imploring you to trust me, Nathan.


    I’m now utterly alone, no longer recognized as part of the Payne family.


    I know I can’t match your prowess, and Ronan poses an even lesser threat to you.


    I won’t deceive you about the milk powder incident.


    I urge you to reconsider your approach and refrain from probing within the Payne family.


    And don’t even contemte investigating Norton.Têxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    He would never dream of harming his own great-grandchildren.


    Investigating him would inflict unbearable emotional anguish.


    ”


    Nathan remained silent, but his expression twisted into a sneer.


    It seemed like he was mocking himself.


    Without saying anything else to Mylo, he turned around and left the secret meeting room through another door.


    His silhouette remained erect and exuded a cold, regal demeanor.


    Kyson trailed behind him in silence.


    “Nathan! Mr.


    Payne! It can’t possibly be Ronan.


    He is no longer a threat to you.


    Please let him go! You promised not to meddle in his affairs anymore.


    You said you would let him live his life in peace.


    If you break your word and bring him back, I’ll haunt you even as a ghost! Speak to me, Nathan!”


    Mylo wanted to go after them, but the prison guard intervened, forcibly escorting him back.


    He couldn’t fathom Nathan’s thoughts or how much he believed his words.


    Mylo’s voice, teetering on the brink of desperation, faded as the iron door closed.


    In the corridor, Kyson turned to Nathan with a curious expression.


    “Nathan, do you believe what he said?”


    Nathan c@@ked an eyebrow in response.


    “If you were in my shoes, would you believe him?”


    Kyson casually slipped his hands into his pockets and said, “If a simr situation arose within the Shaw family, I would likely visit Mekhi in prison.


    However, he is known for his deceitfulness and slippery tongue.


    Therefore, I wouldn’t put much faith in his words.


    ”


    Nathan’s lips curled into a knowing smirk.


    “Exactly.


    ”


    Kyson was puzzled.


    Did Nathan not believe Mylo?


    “But I can’t im to understand Mylo’s character, nor do I know the circumstances that led to his imprisonment by you and his expulsion from the Payne family.


    But judging from his expression just now, he appeared genuinely honest, so I believe he spoke the truth.


    ”


    Kyson paused, his gaze drifting downward, his blue eyes reflecting a hint of uncertainty.


    “Or, how about looking into Norton’s vi? If we bring in all the servants for questioning at the National Security Bureau, we’ll eventually uncover the truth.


    ”


    Nathan nodded slowly, considering Kyson’s suggestion.


    “I’ll keep that n in mind, but let’s wait for Sonny’s investigation results first.


    ”


    Mylo had a point.


    The once unbreakable bond between Nathan and Norton had weakened considerably.


    He eliminated all of Norton’s informants and subordinates within the National Security Bureau, which had strained their rtionship.


    Any suspicion toward Norton now could spell trouble.


    The remaining bond between him and Norton might be severed.


    Nathan wouldn’t even consider looking into Norton unless he had exhausted all other options.


    With a sharp intellect guiding him and his lengthy stride carrying him forward, Nathan briskly left the prison.


    As they settled into the car bound for the National Security Bureau, Nathan’s phone chimed, signaling an iing call.
