Chapter 527
It had been an excruciating hour for those waiting outside. After putting on a facade, Sydney and Olivia finally found excuses to leave.
Meanwhile, Duncan had suddenly received a call from one of his subordinates. He walked some distance away to answer it.
âBoss, the person sent to retrieve the mobile phone from the scene. has been taken away by Walterâs people!â A gloomy voice came from the other end of the phone.
Duncan pushed his glasses and calmly said, âDeal with it immediately.
âIron Kick George broke through and became a stage seven great- grandmaster six days ago!â
âStage seven?â Duncan clenched his fist before replying calmly, â Please ask Boris to take action!â
After ending the call, Duncan returned to the vicinity of the ICU while
wearing an expression of deep concern.
Hubert was apologizing profusely and admitting to his mistakes.
while holding onto Harrisonâs hand.
âHarrison, as your big brother, it was my fault in the past. You must
forgive me! Brother, letâs leave the past behind us. Our father in
heaven wouldnât want to see us fight each other!â
The brothers set aside their grievances and embraced each other After years of rivalry, this incident had finally ended.
Lauren and Hera exchanged a smile. They had been involved in all sorts of conflicts for so long, and it seemed to have finally come to an end after this event.
Hera pursed her lips and said, âNash has been inside for a long time. Could it be that even he canât save Kai?â
Her cousin was still lying on the hospital bed. She did not know if Helena could handle the emotional blow if Nash could not save him.
Just as Hera expressed her concern, the doors to the ICU opened.
A pale-faced Nash walked out. He was followed by the hospital director and Casey, who were pushing a gurney with a white sheet covering the body on it.
Nash expressed his regret, saying, âIâm sorry. I did my best.â
Walterâs vision went black as he fainted on the spot. Too small and powerless to assist her grandfather, Queenie fell with him. The Watson familyâs bodyguards immediately went to take care of them.
Duncan lowered his head and said mournfully, âMr. Watson, please accept my condolences.â At the same time, he was glancing at Nash secretly from the corner of his eye.
Nash looked extremely haggard, and Duncan considered taking
advantage of his state of considerable energy depletion to have him. eliminated. However, he ultimately shelved that thought.
Nashâs true strength was unfathomable, and with the presence of skilled individuals like Melody by his side, even Boris might not be
enough to kill themâ¦
Duncan approached the stretcher and attempted to uncover the white cloth to confirm the situation. However, Dean stopped him and
pushed his hand away, saying, âThe appearance of the deceased is somewhat terrifying. Itâs better if you donât look.â
Duncan responded with a deep voice, âKai and I were as close as brothers. How could I be concerned about such things?â
Saying this, he lifted the white cloth, only to see that Kaiâs body was wrapped in a sheet. His pale face was covered in gruesome wounds, and his vacant eyes stared menacingly at Duncan.
Duncan let out a breath and took a step back. He swallowed a
mouthful of saliva and reached out to touch Kaiâs exposed right hand. Kaiâs right hand was discolored and stiff to the touch.
He could not be any more dead.
Duncan let out a sigh of relief and said sorrowfully, âKai, may you⦠rest in peace.â
Walter walked toward the stretcher with assistance from his
bodyguards. He gazed at his deceased grandson with tears.
streaming down his face. He lamented, âKai, itâs all my fault. I let you
down.â
Queenie cried bitterly, her grief deep. At this moment, other members of the Watson family had also arrived. They were deeply moved by Queenieâs intense sorrow.
Duncan turned away, a sly smile playing on his lips as he walked
away slowly.
Nash walked over and sat next to Hera. He leaned on her shoulder
heavily and murmured weakly, âIt was really hard to earn this two
billion.â
Heraâs eyebrows twitched as she asked, âAre you saying⦠Kai isnât
dead?â
