Chapter 1004
Otherwise, people would be the ones begging them, not the other way around.
Nina gently rested her forehead against Orion's and whispered in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry, Orion, Mommy's back."
"It's okay, Mommy." Orion replied slowly, his eyes shining brightly like stars.
He loved Nina so much and wished he could stay by her side forever. How could he possibly blame her? And now, his dad was back too.
Orion reached out his small hand to wipe away Nina's tears. Unlike other chubby kids, Orion was thin, with little flesh on his hands.
This made Nina think of the antidote Nash had received. She immediately turned to Nash and said, "You should have Father test that antidote right away to see if it's real."
If it was, that would be great. If not, they had not fallen for Dominic's trick, and they would not have lost anything. But after that, they needed to focus on treating Nash. Nash nodded. The next moment, he walked over to Nina and Orion, wrapped an arm around Nina's shoulders, and placed a gentle kiss on Orion's forehead.
"Orion, everything's going to be fine. It's just a minor cold. Daddy will be back soon."
Orion nodded again. Nash gave Nina's shoulder a reassuring pat before turning and leaving.
When Nash handed the antidote to Pharaoh, Pharaoh immediately took it to be tested, with Wilfred helping as well. Fortunately, it turned out to be the real antidote.
After hearing the good news, Nash quickly took the antidote and then rushed to find Nina.
Wilfred stood there, lost in thought, until Pharaoh's low, raspy voice broke the silence. "What's on your mind, kid?"
Pharaoh had been observing Wilfred, expecting him to make a move. However, Wilfred had stayed calm, doing nothing.
Wilfred could not miss the meaning behind Pharaoh's words. With a bitter smile, he replied, "As long as she's happy, that's all that matters."
As long as Nina was happy, everything else was secondary. He would keep helping Nash for Nina's sake, because Nina loved Nash.
As long as Nina was happy, that was enough for him.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Mr. Joker approached Micah. "Mr. Micah, there's trouble in the western region."
Micah's eyes darkened, and he immediately stood up. "Let's go."
When they arrived in the western region, it was already in chaos. "Mr. Micah, what should we do now?" Mr. Joker asked, looking at him. "Hmph, if there's a problem, we'll just deal with the ones causing it," Micah replied, a dangerous glint in his eyes.
A burly man with a commanding presence was holding a bottle of wine, exuding confidence and swagger. "Everyone, eat and drink to
your heart's content. The goes
are just beginning," he said loudly. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
There was some murmuring in the crowd, and someone couldn't help "Boss, I heard that guye
but ask, I
named Micah is on his way here. Aren't you worried?"
The burly man scoffed, his eyes flashing with disdain. "Hah, that Micah. If he dares to come here, he
won't be leaving alive. My only worry is that he won't show up."
Others in the crowd echoed his sentiments. "Yeah, our boss is the real deal! Who does this Micah think he is?"
The burly man grew even more self-satisfied with the crowd's praise.
Then, a calm voice interrupted, "Talking about me so enthusiastically... It seems I had to show up after all." Micah walked in slowly, a faint smile on his lips, though it did not reach his eyes.
