The price of betrayal (Jack and Ashley) novel Chapter 553

"Nolan, no matter what you say right now, I can't argue with you. After all, you've clearly come out on top here and now. You've captured these people, tortured them, and even killed some of them. So, what's the point in telling me all this?" Megan said.

At this moment, Megan didn't dare to speak too harshly to Nolan. But she still couldn't help but feel he was being a bit too theatrical. After all he'd done, why did he feel the need to stand in front of her and make this speech? Wasn't it obvious that he was doing all this just to provoke her?

Nolan looked at Megan and said indifferently, "You were the one who kept talking about how powerful Mr. Norberg is, and you were also the one who kept insisting I was destined to fail. Honestly, I don't even want to pay any attention to all the nonsense you were spouting.

"So no, there was no point in telling you all this. But I want you to understand one thing, Megan—from start to finish, you couldn't have been more wrong. To me, you're nothing but a bug. The world you think you understand is utterly insignificant in my eyes."

Nolan's expression was indifferent, his tone calm, but the words that came out of his mouth were undeniably infuriating. It was as if he was saying Megan was nothing more than a frog in a well that he could effortlessly destroy with a mere flick of his hand.

Megan was visibly upset now. She gritted her teeth and said, "Fine, Nolan. Maybe I've underestimated you, but how can you be so sure you haven't underestimated Owen? We're talking about the Norberg family here. Do you even understand how powerful they are or what kind of influence they hold?

"Especially now that the Spirit of Life Serum is in Owen's hands. Do you even realize that, in just a day or two, the Spirit of Life Serum can unleash its full potential under Owen's control? No, you have no idea what kind of resources they're working with!"
