The mans face was strikingly attractive.
It was sharply chiseled with a prominent scar slashing across it, which somewhat diminished his natural good looks.
Nathan could never forget this face even in death.
Cory had been on the run for five years following the incident of the tainted milk powder.
He had sustained injuries and narrowly escaped capture by the National Security Bureau multiple times.
However, this time, he was apprehended with unexpected ease.
Nathan looked grim.
He was convinced that Cory was up to something again.
When Nathan caught him, Cory showed no surprise at all. Instead, he flashed a sinister grin and said, Nathan, its been a while.
We finally meet for real.
Nathans expression was stern as he said coldly, If it were up to me, I wouldnt want to see your face ever again.
Cory let out a mocking laugh.
His gaze filled with contempt as he snapped, But I always want to see you, Nathan.
A heartless man Like you should have died for Nanette.
Better yet, you should kneel at her grave and beg for forgiveness! Nathan responded casually, That woman doesnt deserve it.
His dismissive tone hit a nerve, and Cory erupted, screaming like an angry wild animal.
His eyes, blazing with rage, were locked on Nathan.
You aimed to torment those I care about to prolong my agony.
But now that youre in my hands, your plans are ruined.
As the relentless rain fell, the intensity in Corys eyes slowly diminished, replaced by manic laughter.
You must have realized I showed up deliberately to draw you out, didnt you? Nathan gave no response.
With a wide grin, Cory taunted, Now that you have a wife and kids, you should deeply understand the agony of losing those you care about.
Nathan, the pain Ive endured-I want you to experience it all over again! What a madman.
Gazing into Corys eyes, brimming with hatred, Nathan raised his gun, pressed the cold barrel against his head, and issued a stern warning.
Cory, Im warning you-if you touch them, Ill subject you to a fate far worse than death. Cory laughed a few times and looked at Nathan disdainfully.
You wont kill me.
If you even think about it, I promise youll never see your wife and children again.
I have nothing left to lose.
Taking down Cadiereds wealthiest lady and her young heirs would be worth my life.
So, tell me, can you risk pulling the trigger? Corys expression was fearless, almost triumphant.
Nathan remained silent as fury swelled within him.
But he couldnt risk it.
Without knowing Corys contingency plan, he had to prioritize the safety of Lucinda and their kids.
