Francis goggled at Nathan in shock.
The Cross family is wealthy beyond belief, and Madam Helen even asked the Lupins to help her get rid of Nathan.
Despite that, he said that he wants to punish the Cross family. Is he really able to do that?
Nathan gave Francis a cold look. "Your behavior over the past few years is unforgivable, but it seems that you still have some morals in you. I will give you one more chance."
Francis forced himself to ask, "What is it?"
Nathan replied calmly, "I asked Dr. Rothschild from the North Army General Hospital to operate on Zayn, and I need your cooperation on that matter."
Francis exclaimed in surprise, "Is he the 'Unmatched Talent', Rupert Rothschild?"
"That's right. Helen instructed you to order a doctor to kill Zayn, but now, I want you to secretly arrange for Dr. Rothschild to operate on him and save him. You can choose whether you should go down the wrong path by following her instructions or turning over a new leaf by listening to me."
Francis had a hesitant expression. He's forcing me to side with him!
But Madam Helen is the one calling the shots in the Cross Family right now!
If she ever found out that I betrayed her, I would face a miserable death.
Then again, if I refused Nathan right now, I probably would die too.
He suddenly had an idea as he deliberately tried to ask Nathan for more information. "Master, the head of the Lupin family, Preston had recently joined the ranks of Madam Helen. Are you sure you can go against them?"
Nathan smiled coldly. "That question is trivial. Decide for yourself whether to stick by her side or mine."
After a long pause, Francis clenched his teeth and pronounced, "Whatever. I'll probably die, anyway. I choose to stand on your side."
Nathan replied with a satisfied smirk, "Good. Go ahead and arrange for Dr. Rothschild to operate on Zayn.”
