Chapter 398 Becoming Unfeeling
As if he had expected those words from me, Nicholas smiled and took out a name card from his pocket.
I took it over and saw that the text on it was: Nicholas Cadman. General Manager of Nifty Group, Anglandur.
Once I registered the information on the card, my eyes widened in shock. I had come across the name Nifty Group on the news before. They were a powerful company, almost on par with the Shaw family.
“You’re from Nifty Group?” I questioned, looking at him in disbelief.
Instead of answering my question, Nicholas asked, “Now, do you think that I have the capability of helping you out?”
My eyes darted back to the card as my heart skipped a beat. Truthfully, I never thought of doing anything to Michael’s company, but since the Shaw family was treating me so heartlessly, I found no point in being nice to them.
“All right. Deal!”
If I wanted my child, I had to agree to it. Only by working with Nicholas then could I make myself stronger and be powerful enough to get my son back.
“I’ll be going to Anglandur the day after tomorrow. Come with me.”
The moment Nicholas heard my agreement, a smile reappeared on his face. The confidence in that smile convinced me that he had the power to acquire Michael’s company.
“To Anglandur? I’m not going to go there. If I go to Anglandur, I’ll have even lesser chances to see my child.”
My child was in the Shaw residence. If I were to leave the country, I would be further from him. By then, not only would I be unable to see my child, but I would also be unable to receive any news about him.
Therefore, I could not and would not leave the country.
Frowning, Nicholas said in a solemn tone, “Is there a point for you to stay here? Will the Shaws let you see your child if you stay here? If you come to Anglandur with me, you’ll meet a professional training team there. I’m asking you to help me take over the Shaw family’s company, so you’ll have to learn the ropes of the corporate world. When you return to the country again, it’ll be the time for you to get your child back.”
I then mulled over his words. I knew he was right, but I could not bear to leave the place and part with my child.
Hence, I hung my head in silence as the two conflicting thoughts fought in my head.
Just as I was hesitating, Nicholas added, “At the end of the day, whether you stay or leave is up to you. However, you must know that your child will never return to you if you don’t leave for Anglandur with me.”
He spoke in a monotone, but his words still managed to catch my attention.
I, too, was fully aware that it was meaningless for me to stick around. Lincoln’s actions had shown me how merciless the Shaw family could be to me.
Thus, I took a deep breath and raised my head to meet Nicholas’ amber eyes before nodding.
