<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Chapter 927 I Am Not Involved</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">At a tall building in Rainsworth Manor, Nathaniel and Nichs stood together.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Did you already know about Ethan’s actions?” Nathaniel asked.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nichszily leaned against the railing, looking at the overcast sky outside. “I wasn’t involved this time.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">That was an indirect admission.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nathaniel had long known that his younger brother wasn’t as gentle and kind as he appeared, but he still found it hard to believe that brothers would turn against each other.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“You’ve already taken control of Orion Corporation. What more could you want?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">What more could he want?</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nichsughed. “I want a lot more. The thing that dissatisfies me the most is that you married the woman I love and act as if you don’t owe me anything!”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Hearing this, Nathaniel hardened his resolve. He raised his hand and grabbed Nichs by the cor, tightening his grip.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The two of them looked identical, but Nichs had been frail and sickly since childhood. He was no match for Nathaniel, even though Nathaniel couldn’t see now.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Some distance away, Jocelyn witnessed this scene and was ready to step forward, but Mason blocked her.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Ms. Wright, it’s best to let our bosses settle their own matters,” Mason said.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nichs’s cor was tightly gripped, making it hard for him to breathe, but he didn’t show any fear.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Go ahead, kill me. But don’t forget, Cecilia has always truly loved me. If I die, she’ll never forgive you.” His handsome face twisted slightly.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nathaniel lowered his voice, “Stop hanging around those lowlifes, or I really will kill you.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">With that, he shoved Nichs away.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nichs staggered back several steps, coughing violently.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nathaniel didn’t stay any longer and left.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">As soon as he was gone, Jocelyn rushed over to support Nichs. “Mr. Nichs, are you okay? Let’s go to the hospital.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nichs waved her off in refusal.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“No need.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">His breathing gradually steadied, and the coughing subsided.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Jocelyn knew him well. If he said he didn’t want to the hospital, then he definitely wouldn’t go.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After reprimanding Nichs, Nathaniel took Cecilia and Elliot back to Daltonia Vi.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After dropping them off at home, he left under the pretense of work.</font></font>This text is ? N?velDrama/.Org.
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">An hourter, in a dimly lit basement. Ethany on the ground, spitting blood. His body was covered in wounds.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">For the past day or two, he had endured torment unlike anything he’d ever experienced.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">When Nathaniel walked in, Ethan saw a glimmer of hope and immediately crawled to Nathaniel’s feet, begging, “Mr. Rainsworth, I was wrong. I beg you, have mercy and spare me this time. I’ll serve you for the rest of my life.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nathaniel nced behind him, and his men immediately dragged Ethan further away, restraining him roughly.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Who else was involved in this besides you?” Nathaniel asked.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Ethan certainly wasn’t about to implicate Francis and lied, “Nichs.”</font></font>
Nathaniel had already spoken with Nichs. He knew Nichs well enough. If Nichs had been involved, he would’ve admitted it.
“So you’re not going to tell the truth?” Nathaniel’s voice was soft, but to Ethan, it sounded like it came from hell.
“I’m telling the truth. Nichs ordered me to do it. He’s afraid that once your health improves, you’llpete with him for the position of Orion Corporation’s heir.”
Ethan stubbornly stuck to his lie.
A few minutester, his screams filled the basement.
Having gained no useful information, Nathaniel walked out. He turned to Mason and asked, “Have you found Francis yet?”
