Chapter 1827 Apologized Unwillingly
Seeing that, Ashton went after her. He had just taken two steps when Nathaniel called him back. “Ashton! Remember that your life is mine, and I can take it away anytime! Don’t be too arrogant!”
Ashton paused midstride, but he didn’t turn back. After listening to the man, he continued chasing after Ramona.
If I were in his shoes, I would make the same choice.
After all, how many people in this world can have Nathaniel showing them mercy?
As soon as they left, Theodore and Desmond quietly made themselves scarce as well.
When everyone was gone, Nathaniel deflated. He propped his hand with the gun on the table, seemingly thinking about something or other.
“Are you feeling distressed now? It doesn’t feel good to hurt someone who only has eyes for you, huh?” I tactlessly teased him. In a rare moment, Nathaniel treated me with a hint of impatience. “What nonsense are you spouting?”
It was as though he couldn’t tell that Ramona had feelings for him.
Hmm, this is even better. It’s easiest for trouble to arise when feelings are fuzzy. Once there’s a rift and Nathaniel’s faction fractures, the risk will become much lower. Human life is of no value here, but I want Ashton to live!
“Then, just regard it as nonsensical talk. Drive me home.” Shrugging, I got up and left the crime scene.
Nathaniel couldn’t say no to me, so he chased after me shortly after.
When we reached the gate of the villa, a man in traditional attire walked out from the side all of a sudden and blocked our path.
“Mr. Jensen would like to see you.”
Those words were directed at Nathaniel, making it apparent that they were acquainted.
Since he knew this place and even exhibited such a pompous attitude in front of Nathaniel, his position among these people is definitely not to be underestimated.
“Did he say why?” Nathaniel asked.
“You’ll know when you arrive.” As the traditionally-attired man said that, he glanced at me and added somberly, “Mr. Jensen specifically requested that you bring Ms. Stovall along.”
