In the dead of night, Nova felt a chilling sensation creeping up from the soles of her feet. She had always harbored suspicions about Nelson, but she never anticipated how sinister he could be. His actions seemed to eclipse even Louise's misdeeds, casting his villainy in a new light.
"I seek vengeance against Louise," Nova said, "but my revenge won't be built upon harming the innocent."
Nelson furrowed his brow slightly, his viewpoint starkly contrasting with Nova's. He shrugged, "What does it matter if an inconsequential person dies, as long as the goal is achieved?"
Nova regarded him with the eyes of someone observing a stranger. "Do you truly believe that a human life holds no significance?"
Nelson couldn't understand why her reaction was so intense.
"Ava Adkins has already been killed! The mother and daughter have suffered enough. Shannon has been struggling with the agony of losing her beloved daughter for five years. Don't you think your actions are cruel?"
Nelson frowned, his gaze flickering slightly. It seemed like he realized he had gone too far, and his tone softened. "Nova, I was just too eager to help you seek revenge. Besides, Shannon hasn't died, and if you don't want her to, I promise you, she will be saved, okay?"
Nova pressed her lips together as she looked at him, but in her heart, she was already considering distancing herself from this man. "Mr. Nelson, you're too terrifying... I'll handle the revenge myself!"
Nelson suddenly became flustered, eagerly grabbing Nova's hand. "Nova, please listen to me. I didn't mean to. It was a lapse in judgment this time. I promise to consult you beforehand next time I take action, okay?"
Nova stared at him for a while as if trying to gauge the sincerity behind his words.
Nelson didn't want to lose Nova. She brought him many things; she led his company to rise step by step and successfully opened up foreign markets in just a year. He needed Nova. In the future, when Brian passed away, they would take the Francis Group to new heights together.
