“No,” Henry said firmly, “You won’t get a death sentence. The lawyer will fight to lighten yoursentence. After a few years, you can get your medical permit back and change the sentence to lifeimprisonment. With further negotiations, they might release you after another few years.” In thisway, the hospital can continue operating normally. This was the best way. Although they would stillsuffer a huge loss, at least Henry could protect his 20 billion dollars–worth hospital.
“But…” Nixon looked at him and his lips trembled. For a moment, he did not dare to disobey. Henrywas not negotiating with him. It
is an order.
After a moment of silence, Nixon suddenly fell to his knees. A man in his late forties let tearsstreaming down his face. “Mr. Fraley, I was wrong. I didn’t manage the hospital well. I deserve todie. But please, I beg you to let me go. I don’t want to go to jail. There must be another way!”
Henry’s plan seemed flawless and easy to execute. However, Nixon wasn’t an inexperienced youngman who was easily fooled. He was involved in a case where the military and important figures fromIverton were involved. They all came to supervise the case. Once he got in, Nixon knew it wasalmost impossible to get out. Even if in the end, Nixon didn’t get a death sentence, he would still rotin prison.
Meanwhile, Henry didn’t intend to help Nixon either. He either didn’t want to see Nixon live muchlonger, or he wanted to see Nixon rot in jail. He might look well–dressed and well–spoken, but hewas unscrupulous and could sacrifice anything for his benefit. Henry knew of his trait for more than20 years.
From the beginning, Henry already looked down on Nixon. And seeing him in such a state, he felteven more disgusted. But Henry wouldn’t have let him appear in front of him If it wasn’t a matter oflife and death.
Henry said patiently, “If we follow the normal legal procedures for this matter, you will be sentencedto life imprisonment. Take initiative to take responsibility and protect the hospital. Only then willMatilda and I have the strength to think of a way to protect you.”
He knew that Nixon had a relationship with his daughter. If he hadn’t smacked some sense toMatilda, she would have married him. Nixon also got to stay in the hospital because of Matilda.
Henry and Nixon had worked together for years, not knowing Nixon had backstabbed him. And tokeep him away from trouble, Nixon had the guts to drag Matilda into this mess.
“It’s the best of both worlds, Nixon. Of course, I won’t let you suffer for nothing. I’m old and my fatehas been decided. I no longer have the strength to care too much about these things.” Henry raisedhis eyes and looked out of the window. His gaze was distant as if he was looking at the entireFraley Group. “I won’t bring these things with me in life or death. The hospital, including everythingmy family has, will be handed over to Matilda.”

Henry sighed and added, “Nixon, you’re Matilda’s most trusted person. She needs your support forthe rest of her life. I can’t believe that in the end, I still have to rely on you.”
As Henry spoke, he looked at Nixon again. His eyes filled with warmth and anticipation. Nixon hadknown him for 20 years and managed a hospital worth 20 billion dollars for him. And this was thefirst time he had spoken so much to him. Even someone as cold and dignified as Henry revealed a
gaze
that looked like he valued his junior.
For someone like Henry to say such a thing, it was meaningful. It was as if Henry wanted to shareeverything about the Fraley family with Nixon. As for Nixon, it was a huge temptation of wealth andstrength. “Mr. Fraley, L… L
Since Nixon had already heard so much, he finally knew Henry’s true intentions. However, he did
not dare to refuse directly. He stammered and did not express his stance.
Henry’s face darkened. “Think about it first, and answer me in the afternoon.” He wasn’t afraid.Nixon would disagree. After all, this was his only choice to lure Nixon into complying.
Afterward, Henry got up and walked out. “Sir, I’ll send you
off.
Nixon stood up and went forward. But when Henry reached the door, he felt a stinging pain. “You…”Henry wanted to push him away in disgust. And suddenly, his eyes widened in shock. “How dare
You?”
Henry raised his eyes and looked at Nixon. Nixon’s gaze was strangely bright and sinister, like adevil. “You leave me no choice. If I can’t live, no one can!” As he spoke, his arm tightened aroundHenry’s neck. His thumb, pressing on the syringe, quickly injected the contents into Henry’s artery.
“Let… let go!” Henry’s face was abnormally red. The veins on his neck bulged as he struggled withall his might. He shook off Nixon and slammed himself against the door with a loud bang.
Henry instinctively covered the needle hole, and he felt chemicals mixed with his blood gushed out.“Ugh…” His breath caught in his throat. He took a deep breath and stumbled out. “Someone,
someone…
However, Nixon quickly stepped forward and grabbed the back of Henry’s collar. He pulled him.back and threw him to the floor.
“You beast!” Henry said weakly. He struggled to get up and felt a sharp pain in his chest. He fellback heavily. His eyeballs protruded, and the veins on his forehead were popping and throbbing.
Upon hearing the word ‘beast‘, Nixon exploded in anger. He went forward and stepped on Henry’schest ruthlessly.
“What right do you have to call me that? I may have come from a lowly background, but thatdoesn’t make me worse than a mindless beast! And what about you? How do you think your familystarted? How did you get your wealth? Operating illegally and trafficking organs. You forced me to

do those things! Then, you broke me up with Matilda and sold your daughter for your goal. Do youthink you’re a noble person?”
you want
Nixon’s breath was rushed as he continuously stomped on Henry’s chest and face. “I’ve chargedinto battle for you. I’ve done all the dirty work for you. You can sit back and enjoy the fruits of my
labor. So why can’t you see me as your equal? What right do you have to look down on me? Now tosacrifice me and make me a scapegoat to protect your wealth and reputation? In your dream, yousick f*ck! Do you think I’m a three–year–old child you can coax however you want? I’m no longerthe hothead from 20 years ago.”
Nixon’s emotions were burning. He disregarded the state of the man he stomped on. “You’re thechairman. You’re the real person in charge of the hospital and should be taking responsibility. Don’tworry, I’ll help you keep the hospital, and everything in the Fraley family, and take good care of it. I’lleven give you a glorious burial. You can die in peace! Hahaha…”
Nixon crazily trampled on Henry while venting his anger. After a while, he realized that the personunder his feet had stopped breathing at some point. His body was twisted, and white foam wascoming out of his mouth. His eyes were bulging, and he died with his eyes wide open. The clothes.on his chest were covered in footprints. If Nixon pulled open his clothes, he could see they werecovered in bruises. This kind of death was something Henry would expect. He died at the hands ofan inferior person and humiliated.
