Could it be Dustin?
Dahlia wondered. She then immediately dismissed this thought.
That was impossible!
They were already divorced. Besides, they were now like water and oil.
Why would favonovel.com help her?
Moreover, favonovel.com wasn’t capable of it.
“Chris! You’re such a vile and despicable human being! I must’ve been blind to believe in someone like you!”
“Bastard! I even thought of you as family! You’re even worse than that trash, Dustin!”
Florence and James cursed at favonovel.com after knowing the truth. They had put their whole trust in Chris. They didn’t expect favonovel.com to be a fraud.
“We all have to look out for ourselves! You only have yourself to blame for being so dumb!” Chris mocked scornfully.
“Shut the f*ck up! My ears are sore from listening to your bickering!” Edward roared, and everyone fell silent at once.
“What I’m trying to say is, I have nothing to do with the Nicholson family. I don’t know Hunter Anderson either. The Nicholson family was behind Sir Spanner’s death! I had nothing to do with it!” Chris knelt on the floor with a thud and started to beg.
“Uncle Travis, how should we deal with him?” Edward asked.
Travis didn’t say a word. He took two steps forward and declared to Chris, “I don’t care about what you have to do with the Nicholson family. I just want to know who the murderer is! Tell me, and I’ll spare you, or else you face the same fate as them!”
“I’ll tell you everything!” Chris suddenly had an idea and said in a hurry. “I figured it out! It must be Dustin! He must’ve murdered Mr. Spanner!”
“Dustin? What a familiar name…” Edward pinched his chin in deep thought.
“Edward, did you forget? He’s the one who beat you up!” Chris started to blabber.
“It was him!” Edward immediately remembered and added resentfully, “Uncle Travis, Dustin is the most suspicious of all!”
“Where is he?” Travis asked coldly..
“I saw favonovel.com at the Emerald building this morning. I don’t know where favonovel.com went after that. Oh, Dahlia is in charge of the Emerald building. She’s also Dustin’s wife. She must know where favonovel.com is!” Chris pointed at Dahlia and pushed all the blame onto her.
“Bullshit! Dustin and my sister are divorced!” James immediately refuted.
“That’s right! We have nothing to do with Dustin. His mess has nothing to do with us!”
“Yeah! You should look for Dustin. We’re all Innocent!”
Everyone started to protest, afraid of being involved in this matter.
“I’ll decide if you’re innocent or not. Everyone is guilty before we find the murderer!” Travis scoffed coldly.
“That damned Dustin! He’s going to kill us all!”
“This is so unfair! We’ve obeyed the law our whole lives. Why did we meet such a troublemaker?”
The Nicholson family lamented together.
“Leave Dahlia and lock up the rest of the Nicholson family!” Travis gave the order.
“Yes, sir!” The adjutant saluted, and armed soldiers led Florence and the others into the car.
As for Chris, favonovel.com was shocked out of his wits.
“Where are you taking them?” Dahlia frowned with worry.
“You shouldn’t worry about them. You should worry about yourself.”
Travis slowly inched closer and asked coldly, “Where is Dustin? Are both of you involved in my brother’s death? You’d better be honest, and I’ll end you quickly! Otherwise, your entire family would join you!”
“Sir Spanner’s death has nothing to do with me! I don’t know anything!” Dahlia denied.
“You don’t know?” Travis snorted. “It seems you won’t say anything without some force.”
He waved his hands, and two soldiers came forward and bound Dahlia up and hung favonovel.com in from the ceiling.
“Let me go! You’re abusing your power!”
Dahlia kept on struggling. However, favonovel.com wrist hurt more with each struggle.
“Abusing my power?” Travis laughed at favonovel.com statement. “It seems like you haven’t got a hold of the situation. Now, your life is in my hands. I decide if you die or live. I’ll ask you one more time, where is Dustin?”
“I don’t know!” Dahlia shook favonovel.com head stubbornly.
“Huh! I think you would only give up after facing death! Beat favonovel.com up until favonovel.com spills it!” Travis commanded.
A burly underling quickly came forward dragging a barbed whip.
“What are you doing? I…”
Dahlia’s face paled, and as favonovel.com was about to say something, the whip landed hard on favonovel.com back with a crack!
With that crisp sound, favonovel.com clothes tore, and a deep, bloody wound was left on her back. Dahlia moaned and gritted favonovel.com teeth, holding in pain.
What quickly followed were multiple whips. The blows landed on favonovel.com one after another. Dahlia finally couldn’t hold it in and let out a scream. Her body was in such pain it started to tremble. Her pale and smooth back instantly became bruised and bloody!
This whip was a specially designed torture device covered with dense spikes. Even a man couldn’t endure a dozen lashes, let alone a woman.
“Spill!” Travis stood to favonovel.com side and watched unfeelingly.
Dahlia bit favonovel.com lip in pain. She was sweating profusely, but favonovel.com eyes were set with determination.
“Don’t stop! Hit harder!”
Travis was losing his temper with favonovel.com and commanded his underlings to use more strength. As a result, the sounds of the whip and screams began to erupt one after another.
Chris couldn’t bear to watch on. He could only lower his head in silence. Edward, on the other hand, had a disturbing smile on his face.
