Chapter 2577
“Other than the Home Minister, the rest of the people refused to admit their doings. It seems like Lucius has a lot of confidence.”
Nollace squinted and thought for a while. “I guess we can only try our luck on the Home Minister.”
Since he was the only one willing to admit the guilt and take the blame, Lucius must have threatened him.
Yorrick patted his shoulder. “We have only three days. Try your best.”
After that, he turned around and left.
Nollace came to the room that detained the Home Minister. The middle–aged man inside looked haggard. Apparently, losing his freedom was not a pleasant experience.
When he saw Nollace, he was stunned for a moment, but he averted his gaze and remained silent.
“Are you sure you want to take all the blame, sir?”
He gnashed his teeth and said, “I don’t understand what you are talking about, Your Highness.”
“It’s okay. After all…” Nollace leaned on the door. “None of you are getting away with it.”
The Home Minister was stunned again, but he did not say anything.
“I heard that you love your daughter very much, right?”
“Your Highness!” The Home Minister shouted, “I told you that they have nothing to do with this!”
“It doesn’t matter. What matters the most is whether you really think your family won’t be affected if you become the scapegoat.” Nollace said, “Or do you think Lucius will treat your family like you did or save you from prison?”
The Home Minister was stunned.
Nollace looked at him and continued. “Do you have any idea what your family will have to go through while you’re serving your sentence in prison? Besides, this recording belongs to you. You’ve disrupted all his plans and led the police to him. Do you really think he’ll let you off the hook if you take the blame for him?”
The Home Minister pressed his lips thin and cold beads of sweat dripped down his forehead.
“Do you know that a female inmate was killed in prison? Are you sure that you won’t end up like her? Sir, think carefully. When a boat is capsized, only one can live while others need to die, including you.” Nollace looked at him one last time before leaving without turning his head back.
