Chapter 77
Keeping the smile on his face, he asked, “Are you sure you want me to break now?”
Needless to say, Fernando was extremely worried as he roared, “Hurry up and step on the brakes! Or else, I will shoot you...”
Before he could finish his threat, Nathan already stepped on the brakes without warning.
Nathan and Penny were secured since they had their seatbelts on. However, Fernando and his two friends did not fasten their seatbelts when they had gotten onto the car earlier.
At such a high speed, when the driver stepped on the brakes, the huge inertia threw the trio towards the front.
Amidst the screeching sounds of the brakes, the BMW spun a few times on the road.
It hit a road barrier at the side and flipped into the drain with a loud bang.
Everyone in the car was tossed around and the airbags instantly inflated themselves.
Since Nathan and Penny had their seatbelts on and more airbags were present at their seats, they were rather unscathed.
However, things looked extremely bad for Fernando and his two companions. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
They were instantly knocked into unconsciousness.
Fernando himself was thrown to the front and he shattered the windscreen, flying out of the car. By the time the car stopped, he was left with his last few breaths.
Meanwhile, Nathan was an extremely strong man. The moment he stopped the car, he unfastened his seatbelt with the speed of lightning and snapped the necks of the two remaining men.
After which, he got down the car and walked towards Fernando.
The man was rather determined and survived through his will. With one side of his body bloodstained and crushed, he still attempted to crawl towards the gun beside him.
However, before he could even move anymore, Nathan stood in front of him.
Raising his head, he saw Nathan who had a murderous aura emanating from him. His cold expression was enough to make one’s hair stand on end.
Nathan asked him with an unsympathetic voice, “Let me ask you. Did Joseph Myers send you to kill me?”
“Will you let me go if I told you?” Fernando groaned weakly.
He shook his head and answered, “No, but I will give you what you want.”
Fernando laughed bitterly and revealed, “Joseph Myers promised me ten million in return for me killing you and kidnapping your wife.”
Nathan raised his leg and snapped Fernando’s neck in half.
After which, he returned to the car and shook Penny who was slightly unconscious, “Honey? Honey?”
Penny’s eyes fluttered open gradually. Flustered, she hugged Nathan and cried in his arms.
Stroking her hair, he comforted her gently, “Don’t worry. Everything is alright now. I’m here.”
Nathan dialed Colin Dunne’s number after everything was settled.
Within a short while, Colin brought a few plain-clothed men in a dozen of Jeeps.
Nathan asked him to clean up the mess while he took one of the Jeeps and drove Penny home.
The latter was still in shock and emotional, and she did not realize that Colin Dunne and his men behaved rather differently. She thought that they were merely Nathan’s friends.
At home, Benson and Leah made dinner and were watching TV with Queenie.
As they saw Penny return, they also noticed her pale expression. They immediately approached and asked her what was wrong.
Afraid to worry her parents, Penny forced a smile and covered up the truth, “It was just a small accident. The car was damaged, and I was a little shocked.”
Benson and Leah took her word for it. They quickly comforted the couple and made sure that they were not injured.
The family sat down for dinner.
Nathan ate a little before placing down his utensils. He excused himself from the table, on the pretext of having to settle the car accident.
After which, he put on a jacket and walked out of the house.
There were two Jeeps parked outside the villa at Riverside Garden.
Colin Dunne and a few other North soldiers had been waiting for him.
Opening the car door for Nathan himself, the latter stepped into the car and asked, “Where is Joseph Myers now?”
“Sir, Joseph Myers is at Moon Mansion waiting for the arrival of you and Ms. Smith,” Colin Dunne reported in a low voice.
A tinge of murderous intention flashed across his face as he instructed, “Drive to Moon Mansion.”
“Yes, sir!”
