NovelsBestChapter 950 Raymond Is Very Angry As soon as those words left his mouth, the room got thick with a deadly vibe.
Aria was so freaked out she almost screamed.
Right then, the bodyguards stepped in, holding her up and trying to get her to the second floor.
Nathan sat down slowly, his voice cold as ice, "If she steps out again, you're dead." Both bodyguards shuddered and quickly hustled Aria upstairs.
Aria's mind was spinning. She couldn't wrap her head around the fact that Nathan actually wanted to kill her.
As they shoved her into the room, she managed to stammer, "Has Nathan lost his mind?" Nathan was downstairs and didn't hear her, but the bodyguards still went pale. "Ms. White, you better stay put. Mr. White's been in a foul mood lately. Haven't you noticed a lot of the White family members are missing?" Aria's heart skipped a beat. "What do you mean?" One of the bodyguards glanced around before whispering, "Even Mr. Jerry White got shipped off to sisland." Aria's legs turned to jelly, and she almost hit the floor.
At that moment, she truly believed Nathan had changed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe used to hang on Jerry's every word, but now he had taken over the White family with an iron fist, wiping out anyone who crossed him.
Most of the White family was either dead or exiled, leaving just a few behind.
Nathan's rise to power was brutal, and he radiated a violent energy.
The bodyguard added, "Ms. White, if you want to cout, don't stir up any trouble. No one dares to mess with Mr. White now." Nathan needed someone to unleash his rage on. Anyone who pissed him off was as good as dead.
Aria shivered and nodded, slowly closing and locking the door herself.
Back on her bed, she felt a chill run through her. Even though summer was near, she was freezing. The phone in the room rang, and a familiar, sultry voice cthrough, "So, did Nathan let you out?" Aria stammered, unable to form a full sentence, "Nathan, he..." Tessa's voice turned impatient. "You're useless, Aria. I can't rely on you." Aria, scared, said, "No, he's really terrifying now. I..." The call abruptly ended.
Aria panicked. Pleasing Tessa was her only shot at meeting that man.
But now, Aria didn't dare to provoke Nathan, especially after sensing his murderous intent. She just wanted to stay in her room; her life was more important. Over the past week, the chaos in the White family had becthe talk of the town.
At that moment, Paul was sitting by Raymond's bed. "Raymond, what do you think?" Over the past week, Raymond had been a good sport about taking his meds. All his wounds had scabbed over, and he could already get out of bed.
When Paul knocked on the door earlier, Raymond thought it was Selena. Seeing it wasn't her, a flicker of disappointment crossed his face.
Paul acted like he didn't notice. "What do I think? I think he's always been a nutjob." Raymond leaned against the bed, holding srecent documents from the Montague Group.
Paul got up and opened the curtains. "The White family's has settled down. What about the Montague family? I heard Elbert's been cozying up to Mr. Scott, who's been in Silver Bay City for days, and you haven't done a thing. Are you really gonna let Elbert snag the CEO spot?" Raymond looked out the window, his eyes flickering.
Every day, when the sun hit that spot, Selena would show up.
Just as he thought this, there was a knock on the door.
Paul was about to open it when Raymond, who was sitting on the bed, threw off the covers and got up, pulling him back to open the door himself.
Paul stumbled a bit from the pull. If he hadn't been quick, he would've fallen.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen the door opened, Raymond saw Selena standing there, trying to hide his eagerness. "Why are you here again?" Selena was holding a tray and saw Paul standing nearby.
Paul had planned to sit down since he had just arrived and had sstuff to discuss with Raymond.
But when Raymond turned back to the bed, he gave Paul a look that said he could leave.
Paul instinctively checked the time. He'd been there for less than three minutes and had just sat down. He pretended not to see Raymond's hint and sat on a nearby chair. Selena set up a small table on the bed, wiped a spoon, and fed Raymond a spoonful of soup.
Paul couldn't help but comment, "His chest and head are hurt, not hism hands. And the doc said the wounds have scabbed over, so he can get out of bed now." Selena paused, thought it over, and said, "Then you can eat by yourself." Raymond's expression turned icy, and he shot Paul a look of pure displeasure.
Out of politeness, Selena asked Paul, "Mr. Adams, would you like sfruit?" Paul sat upright in the chair, his tone flat, "That's not for you to ask. You used to be the hostess of Manston Manor, but not anymore."
Raymond was fuming. A week ago, he'd borrowed Selena's private jet, and her attitude had softened a bit. She'd been coming over once a day, and their relationship was finally starting to thaw. If Paul made Selena stop coming, Raymond would definitely cut ties with him!
