Spoiled By Mr. Russell By Luminous Night Chapter 642
Spoiled by Mr. Russell
Nathaniel had a polite smile as he bent down, knowing that the man in the car had an air of arrogance around him. Henry looked at Nathaniel and blew out a puff of smoke directly at his face.
Nathaniel was caught off guard and began to cough repeatedly from the smoke. Then he heard. a light voice. âAre you alone?â
Turning his head, he coughed again before looking back at Henry, âYes, Iâm alone, but it seems my presence isnât welcome. In that case, it must mean that youâre uninterested in what I have. Seeing as Iâm disturbing you, Iâll leave.â
With that said, Nathaniel turned and left.
âHold up!â Henry snarled. At first, he thought Nathaniel was just playing tricks, but when he saw that Nathaniel got right into the car and started it, Henry panicked. He quickly unbuckled. his seat belt and jumped out of his car.
When Henry rushed over and grabbed the halfâopen window, Nathaniel was already beginning to drive.
âStop!â
The car let out a screech as Nathaniel braked to a stop. This almost sent Henry flying to the ground.
Once he stabilized himself, he shot a glare at Nathaniel.
At this moment, Nathaniel, who sat in the car, sneered. âIs there anything I can help you with, Mr.
Lodge?â
âSince youâre here to make a deal with me, stop being so pretentious and come down to chat!â Henry gruntled after letting go of the car.
A sardonic smile flashed across Nathanielâs face when he heard this. âIâm not being pretentious, but if youâre not keen, thereâs nothing to talk about. After all, Iâm not the one. needing any concrete evidence, and Iâm not the one thatâs a family patriarch, am I?â
Upon hearing this, Henryâs gaze turned cold as he stared at Nathaniel. âAre you threatening me?â
âI have no time for threats. Iâm just reminding you that everyone is equal in all sorts of transactions. You said that Iâm pretentious? Youâre thinking too highly of me. I wouldnât dare to be that way in front of you.
However, Mr. Lodge, I hope you respect me in turn.â
Henryâs eyes turned gloomy in the face of Nathanielâs words. He took two steps back, sighed, and relaxed a little before he said, âLetâs talk.â
After studying his face, Nathaniel opened the door and got out of the car. Only after standing in front of Henry did Nathaniel realize that Henry was not much taller than himself. However, Henryâs sinister demeanor created a tense environment.
There was a time when Henry would intimidate Nathaniel. Now that he was entangled with the wealthy and powerful, he felt less threatened than before. Sooner or later, the whole Tanner Corporation would be his so an upcoming patriarch of the Lodge family was nothing to him.
Nathaniel casually had his hands in his trousers pocket and raised his chin to look at Henry unabatedly. âMr. Lodge, Iâm delighted to meet you.â
âCut to the chase. Gary said that the evidence in your hands right now would help me. Is that true?â If it werenât because Henry had personally heard this from Gary, he wouldnât have taken the risk to come all the way here.
âI know what youâre worried about, Mr. Lodge, and I can help you with that under one condition.â
Nathaniel smiled as he knew he had the upper hand now. He was upâtoâdate with what was going on.
Although Jonathan currently held the title of the family patriarch, the power was still in Justinâs hands. If Justin wasnât overthrown, Henry would not be of much use, even if he got the title.
