Sonny was on the verge of breaking down completely.
He grabbed Nathanielâs arm and shook him.
âBoss, Iâm begging you.
Open your eyes and look at me.
Lonnie brought the inhibitor.
Youâre going to be fine.
Weâre your soldiers.
You canât die before us.
Wake up you idiot!
You havenât won Miss Lucindaâs heart yet.
Are you willing to leave things like this? Arenât you afraid that sheâll marry Kyson? Or Brinleigh? Or Dwayne? There are many powerful men in Cadiered.
You have so many rivals.
How can you die?
She doesnât even know that you were poisoned for her.
Boss, are you really willing to die like that? How can you bear to leave her now?
Please, wake up!â
Choking on his tears, Sonny tried to wake Nathaniel.
However, his boss didnât move, and his body was cold.
Sonny slumped onto the floor, resting his cheek against Nathanielâs hand.
âBoss, you rescued me from the border of Cadiered when I was ten years old.
You gave me a name, skills, everything I have now.
For years, Iâve followed you wherever you goâ¦â

He drew a knife from his pocket and said, âMy life is yours.
If you die, I will die with you!â
As he finished speaking, he pointed the blade at his chest.
âSonny, no!â
Lonnie shouted.
However, what he was afraid to see didnât happened.
The tip of the sharp knife halted a mere two millimeters from Sonnyâs skin.
A big hand stained with blood tightly grabbed Sonnyâs wrist as he looked up.
Upon waking up, Nathaniel blinked his eyes open.
Thanks to the injection of the antidote to the drug 023, he recovered significantly.
Resting on the lounge chair, Nathaniel turned his head to Sonny and offered a weak smile.
âHow could I have died so easily?â he wondered aloud.
âBoss!â Sonny exclaimed.
Although relieved, Sonny couldnât help but cry out.
âYou scared me to death! I thought you were dead!â Lonnie had also been frightened by the incident.
They both cried in front of Nathaniel like preschool boys.
