Chapter 1112 The Tricks Up Their Sleeves
Peter didn't believe that Ben would go down on his knees and beg Nathan for mercy.
The former firmly believed that Nathan would be the one at Ben's mercy instead. Ultimately, Nathanwould have to beg the Lindberg Family for help.
That was why Peter left proudly with his subordinates after saying his piece.
Everyone had an odd expression on their faces after Peter left.
Some could not understand why Nathan would reject the offer and the opportunity to be a part ofthe powerful Lindberg family.
Many were worried for Nathan too, especially Penny and Grace.
They knew Nathan was the one who beat Gerard to a pulp. So naturally, when they heard that Benwas here to avenge his son, they were worried.
After all, just as Peter put it, The Holt's of
Brimmopolis were powerful figures to be reckoned with.
Nathan could see the worried look in Penny's eyes. He simply grinned and assured, "Relax. It's justthe Holt's from Brimmopolis. I've said that Ben will be here tonight to apologize for their mistake,and so he will."
Penny grinned helplessly in response.
She thought that Nathan had merely said it in the heat of the moment in an attempt to bluff Peter. Itdoesn't matter if Ben apologizes or not. Nathan would be lucky if Ben doesn't come to seekrevenge.
Deep down, Penny and the others were troubled by their thoughts, however, they put on a bravesmile and continued with their celebration in the restaurant.
Nathan got Colin to a corner side and whispered, "I don't think the Logan's nor my maternalgrandmother whom I have never met would want to acknowledge me as part of their family out ofthe blue. This is really suspicious. Go look into this matter and replace out what is the Lindberg Familyup to."
"Understood," Colin replied politely then he set out to complete his task.
Colin returned an hour later and approached Nathan.
Colin reported, Tve looked into the matter. Recently, The Lindberg family is working closely with achief in Africa. They invested in a series of projects, including mining for oil and diamonds. This istheir first project together hence there is lack of trust for each other. That is why they agreed toexchange hostage."
Nathan frowned, "What do you mean by exchanging hostage?"
Colin clarified, "To put it simply, they will hold one of each other's family member as a hostage. Thechief would send his grandson to the Lindberg Family as a hostage. Similarly, the Lindberg's has tosend a family member to Africa to act as a hostage. That way, if either party goes back on theirwords, their heirs would be
killed."
Nathan frowned and asked, "So what does that have to do with me?"
Colin replied, "By acknowledging you and your daughter as a member of the Lindberg's, they couldthen send your daughter in as a hostage."
Boom!
Nathan's fierce gaze shot towards Colin, who lowered his head immediately as beads of coldsweats formed on his forehead.
Nathan asked, "Is this confirmed?"
Colin replied, "I've verified the claims, and it is definitely true."
Nathan scoffed, "No wonder the Lindberg Family reached out to me even though they havedisowned my mother decades ago. They didn't even pay their respect when my mother passedaway. Yet, they want to take me in to the family after all these years. The Lindberg's are all born witha silver spoon so of course, none of them would be willing to be held as hostage in Africa. But howdare they mull over sending my daughter?"
Nathan decided then and there that if those devils dared to lay a finger on them, he would make theLindberg Family pay a hefty price for it.
