Eleanor sprang up from the ground, ran passed Nathaniel, and crouched behind the wall of menacing guards.

She then pointed a finger at him and accused, “Nate, you’re so in love with that woman that she has turned you crazy.

I love you so much, but you still choose her over me.

It’s heartbreaking.

But don’t worry, when you die, I’ll torture her to death and get revenge for you.

Her eyes were red and blazed with fury and spite.

Sonny stepped forward and took a defensive stance in front of Nathaniel.

The tension was palpable, and Tess relished in the moment.

“I heard you were given some kind of drug that made you weak.

If that’s true, your loyal sidekick has to fight off dozens of bodyguards with his bare hands while also protecting you.

Poor him, it’s too much for him,” Tess taunted.

It was the truth.

Nathaniel’s physical state was feeble, and he wouldn’t stand a chance against even one opponent, let alone a horde of them.

If things got violent, he’d just be a burden to Sonny.

Everyone fell silent for a while and then things suddenly took a turn.

Sonny scowled at Tess and blurted, “Whether it’s hard for me or not is none of your concern.

Dealing with these ten people is just a piece of cake.

Even if there were twenty more of them, I could take them on alone.

Tess dismissed him and fixed her gaze on Nathaniel, continuing her persuasive efforts.

“It looks like the rumors are true, so she’s been so cruel to you.

Why do you care about such a vicious woman? We’re family, and I won’t hurt you like she has.

I won’t let you die here today either.

Just work with us to take her life, okay?”

Nathaniel couldn’t help but smile at the thought of Lucinda’s beautiful face.

“Yes, she’s cruel and crafty.

She lavishes her love on Cyrus and others, but only shows me anger and violence.

Even so, I choose to stand by her side.

You’re no match for her.

Tess was enraged.

“Then you won’t leave this place alive!”

The bodyguards behind her brandished their knives and advanced menacingly.

Nathaniel remained composed, his dark eyes betraying no hint of fear or panic.

He stared at Tess and smirked.

“Do you really think I came unprepared?”

Sonny placed his hand on his lips and let out a sharp whistle.

Within seconds, the window was shattered from outside.
