Chapter 201
Wesley gritted his teeth in pain when he got thrown to the ground.
âNashâ¦â
Felicity turned to the edge of the cliff and yelled.
However, all he heard was the echo of her voice.
Nashâs arms circled a branch that was jutting out from the sides of the cliff, and about as thick as his arm. He heaved a quiet sigh of relief.
He used his arms to brace himself as he swung his feet against the cliff, using the momentum to propel himself upward.
He did a front somersault and landed on the edge of the cliff.
Felicity got another shock when she saw Nash reappear. âYou⦠arenât dead?â
Nash hurried toward Felicity. âAre you disappointed?â
Felicity chuckled. âYes, just slightly!â
Wesley lay on the ground, staring dazedly at the starry sky.
Felicity looked at Wesley. âYouâre the one who fired the gun, right? Youâre Wesley Walker!â
Wesley closed his eyes and did not say anything.
Nash asked in a low voice, âWho ordered you to assassinate the Lewis family?â
Although Nash had already guessed the Klein family was behind all of this, he still wanted confirmation.
Besides, Wesley had tried to save him when things took a dangerous turn. Nash had not been. expecting that to happen.
However, Wesley showed no sign of wanting to pay Nash any attention, and he gave up trying to get an answer from him.
The two led Wesley to the old townâs entrance to wait for Angelica.
Half an hour later, Angelica arrived with the man who had been making offerings to Wesleyâs first love.
When the man saw Nash had been captured, he shook his head and sighed. âKarma will always find its way back to you. What was the point in doing what you did?â
After all, he knew that Wesley was his sisterâs first love and that he had never gotten over her.
He simultaneously felt glad for his sister and sorry for Wesley.
Wesley did not say anything.
The man sighed once more before he turned to Nash and asked, âWill he die?â
âYes, he will!â
Nash said with utmost confidence.
Herman and the rest of the Lewis family would not be able to rest easy if Wesley remained alive.
The man smiled sadly. âIn that case, could you pass his ashes to me? I would like to have him buried alongside my sister!â
Wesley was startled when he heard that.
Nash hesitated before replying, âI donât think itâll be a problem as long as heâs willing to work with me and answer my questions!â
The man glared at Wesley when he heard that. âYou committed a heinous crime, which would have prevented you from having the right to be buried with my sister. I hope to see you behaving well!â
Wesley lowered his head.
At Sagen Inspection Headquarters.
Wesley was led into the interrogation room.
Nash, Felicity, and Angelica sat in a row at the interrogation table.
âI hope you will answer our questions honestly, Wesley Walker!â
Felicity had a solemn expression on her face.
Wesley nodded. âAsk away. I will answer anything and everything you ask!â
Felicity seemed ready to begin questioning him, but before she asked any questions, she closed her mouth again, an awkward look on her face.
She had no idea what she should ask.
âAngelica, why donât you question him?â
Felicity got out of her chair and allowed Angelica to take her place in the center.
Angelica turned toward Nash. âWhy donât you do the questioning, Mr. Calcraft?â
Nash said, âMy question remains the same as before. Who instructed you to harm the Lewis family?â
Wesley gulped and asked in a hoarse voice, âCould you give me a cigarette?â
Felicity retrieved a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from the drawer and lit one up for him.
Wesley smoked half a pack of cigarettes before finally saying, âMy employer gave me 1.5 billion dollars and ordered me to kill a man named Herman Lewis!â
Nash said cooly, âYouâre skipping out on the important details!â
Wesley continued, âI donât know who my employer is. He prepared three billion dollars to have Herman killed. Half of the money was given to Cain, and I got the other half. If Cain slipped up, I would have to kill Herman and then Cain to make sure he remained silent!â
Nash asked, âYouâre the one who supplied the medication that Herman was injected with, right?â
No random person could get their hands on these biochemicals.
Wesley had escaped from Sky Blade Group, which was an international organization for
mercenaries. They had probably purchased these biochemicals in the past.
âYes, sir!â
