A Crazy Night (Nathaniel and Christina) novel Chapter 741

Chapter 741 Cat Is Out Of The Bag

There could only be two reasons Azure sought him out. It was either for Nigel or for Yerek.

Timothy had lost count of how many times Azure came pleading for Nigel’s case. His patience was wearing thin from her repetitive and selfish act.

“You want me to provide a letter of forgiveness for Nigel?” Timothy’s voice was gentle, but his eyes lacked any hint of warmth.

Azure thought he was considering her proposal. Her spirit was lifted, and her gaze on Timothy softened with renewed affection.

“Yes. If you find the writing tedious, I can ask someone else to draft it for you. All you need to do is sign the letter,” Azure said.

A derisive smile crossed Timothy’s face. “What do you presume I could possibly write in such a letter?”

A cold prickle of dread stung Azure’s heart at his words, but before she could retort, Timothy ruthlessly tore through her façade of selfishness.

“Shall I write how Nigel has been vying for the Gibson family’s power, schemed the death of my wife, leading to my physical impairment and enduring mental torture for fifteen years? Or how Nigel abused his position, transferring assets in an attempt to secure his position, even contemplating murder when it

failed? Every single crime that Nigel committed was a life’s worth of atonement. Even if I were to provide this letter, do you think a judge would acknowledge it?” Timothy mocked.

Azure’s lips trembled, and she remained silent for a long while before she managed to choke out a coherent response.

“Even if Nigel is released early, he won’t pose any threat to you and Christina. The Gibson family will still belong to you,” she reasoned.

“The Gibson family has always belonged to Christina and me. You don’t even have the right to mention Gibson Corporation,” Timothy spat.

Azure continued to make her case and said, “Yes, I admit my selfishness contributed to today’s tragedy. Timothy, I can confidently tell you that Barnaby has agreed to acknowledge Nigel as his son. If Nigel wishes to compete in the future, it will be for the Stone family’s assets. He won’t interfere in the Gibson family’s affairs.”

Timothy looked at the woman derisively and remained silent.

“I really don’t blame you for not acknowledging me. But I did give birth to you. For the sake of that, leave me a way out,” Azure pleaded, wiping away the tears streaming down her face.

Timothy had grown numb to her pleas, and he was not stirred in the slightest. “Did you know Nigel asked to see me today? He said the same thing, only that he was trying to save Yerek, while you were trying to -save him.”

Azure stared at Timothy in shock. “Nigel? What did Nigel say to you?”

Timothy didn’t intend to keep it from Azure and said, “Nigel was worried his actions would endanger his only kin. He asked me to spare Yerek. As a trade–off, he told me who were the people involved in the plot years ago.”

At that moment, Timothy looked at Azure with a hint of amusement in his eyes. “Barnaby’s name was on that list.”

It was quite the paradox, Nigel and Barnaby both wanted to protect their son, yet their approaches were as contrasting as night and day. One was trying to save his son while the other was digging his own grave.

What a ludicrous situation!

Azure slumped onto the couch, her face ashen. “That’s impossible. Barnaby would never do that…”

Throughout the entire ordeal, she had suspected that only Nigel was the mastermind behind the scheme, with her and Yerek merely serving as clandestine accomplices.

Why would Barnaby want to conspire against Timothy and his wife?

Azure simply couldn’t wrap her mind around it.
