Chapter 1568: 1568. No room for negotiation
Adam Jones frowned with distress, applying ointnt for her while he said with concern:
“Next ti you hit soone, let the bodyguards handle it.”
Elly Campbell remained silent for a while before speaking:
“Have them bring Nathan Linstad in.”
Adam Jones looked at her with unease, nodded, and ordered soone to bring Nathan Linstad in.
At this mont, Nathan Linstad had already been beaten black and blue by Elly Campbell, his eyes swollen to slits. Through the gaps, he looked at the Jones couple in front of him.
Adam Jones’s emotions weren’t visible, but even without looking at him, Nathan could feel the overwhelming pressure emanating from him, even more frightening than the cold stare from Elly Campbell.
He was already terrified of being beaten by Elly Campbell, and now feeling the aura coming from Adam Jones, he instinctively took a step back.
Trembling, he hid behind the bodyguard, pleading in a low voice.
Elly Campbell’s eyes reflected an intimidating cold light, but in the next mont, she smiled.
Her face and eyes were expressionless, so when the corners of her mouth lifted, it seed particularly sinister, like a specter, scaring him out of his skin.
“I heard from your mom that you’re going to be sent to Yale University as an exchange student?”
Elly Campbell’s tone was slow, but every word she said felt like a verdict to Nathan Linstad.
He saw Elly Campbell’s pupils deepen, and the cold words ca out of her mouth, one by one.
“Do you think you still have a chance?”
Nathan Linstad’s heart trembled.
“Nathan, you only have two paths to choose from now. First, you say nothing, and I will ensure you and your family live forever in the mire with no way out. The second path, you confess everything, and I’ll only make sure you’re the one who can’t get out.”
She calmly delivered a lifeti judgnt for Nathan Linstad.
Nathan knew Elly Campbell wasn’t lying, not just because she had the status of Madam Jones, but just the na of the Campbell Family alone made Nathan realize his life was finished.
At this mont, he deeply regretted why he had thrown his life away for five million back then.
If he had just honestly gone to Yale for study, with a public fund position and a full scholarship, life wouldn’t have been too hard for him in the United States.
But he foolishly indulged in an unattainable figure, fearfully watching his future be dood.
He wanted to plead for himself, but when faced with Elly Campbell’s cold and uncompromising gaze, he was too scared to speak.
After a long while, seeing the impatience gradually erge on Elly Campbell’s face, he finally took the plunge and said:
“I’ll talk, I’ll talk, but after I confess, can I go back to school to study?”
He saw Elly Campbell smile, still with no expression on her face, just the corners of her lips slightly curled.
“Are you deaf? Didn’t you hear say you only have two paths to take?”
aning, there was no room for negotiation.
Elly Campbell picked up the investigation results her subordinates had given her earlier, lightly patted them, and said:
“Everything I wanted to know is in here. Whether you talk or not ans little to . I was just giving you a chance to make ands. Since you don’t want it, forget it.”
After speaking, she walked out without any hesitation, as she said, there was no need for Nathan Linstad’s confession.
