Chapter 597 Self Defense

Nathaniel couldn't be bothered to waste any more words on them. He turned to Cecilia and said, “Let's go.”

Cecilia nodded. “All right.”

The two of them left with Elliot.

Adrian chuckled to himself. “What's with the act? Does he still think he’s the CEO of Rainsworth Group? What a

joke!”

They were oblivious to the storm that was about to engulf them next.

On the way back, Cecilia sincerely thanked Nathaniel, saying, “Thank you for standing up for Eli.”

“He’s my son. Obviously, | would stand up for him. There's no need to thank me.” Nathaniel’s voice remained

chillingly cold.

Cecilia felt as though he had swallowed gunpowder, and thus, she stopped speaking.

Nathaniel then added, his voice steady and calm, “Do you really believe that Eli didn’t deceive Felix into going to

the artificial hill?”

“Would Eli know how to do such a thing?” Cecilia asked.

She had always regarded Elliot as a harmless little rabbit.

Nathaniel fell silent for a moment, choosing not to show Cecilia the later part of the surveillance footage.

The subsequent footage revealed that after leading Felix to the artificial hill, Elliot didn’t rush off. Instead, he

stood not far away, yawning and smugly listening to Felix’s cries for help.

That look of his was nothing like his usual adorable silliness.

They soon arrived at Daltonia Villa.

When Nathaniel was about to leave for work, Elliot secretly found him. “Mr. Rainsworth.”

Elliot knew that Nathaniel had uncovered the truth. He feared that if Nathaniel told Cecilia, it would shatter the

good image he had maintained in front of her.

“What's the matter?” Nathaniel asked.

“Did you say anything else to Mommy?” Elliot watched Nathaniel’s expression closely, trying to gauge his

response.

Yet, the only expression on Nathaniel’s face was his usual indifference.

“Are you scared?” Nathaniel simply asked him.

Elliot's heart pounded with worry. “Please, don’t tell Mommy. I'll do anything you ask. | don’t want Mommy to

think I'm a bad kid.”

“When others try to take advantage of you, it’s not wrong to use certain measures to protect yourself. That's

called self-defense. In the future, you can cwithto the office and learn about the law,” Nathaniel said

slowly.

Elliot had always been worried that Nathaniel didn’t understand him. However, upon hearing. Nathaniel’s words,

he felt as if Nathaniel seemed even more towering than before.

“All right, 1 understand.”

“However, if you wantnot to tell Cecilia, you'll need to change how you addressin the future.”

After issuing his threat. Nathaniel climbed into the car.

Elliot watched as the car disappeared from his sight, his fondness for his father dwindling event further. Ugh! |

can’t believe he dared to use such a thing to threaten me. Hmph!

Meanwhile, Eric was already at the office, seated in the waiting room of Imminence Corporation, under the

fervent gazes of a group of women outside.

However, he was already used to it. He sat calmly, sipping on his third cup of coffee..

“Why isn’t he here yet?”

Eric had already waited for an hour.

The agent also found it odd, but after going out to check, he asked Eric to keep waiting.

Given the current prevalence of negative news online, the two had no choice but to swallow their pride and stay

put.

Mason reported the happenings there to Nathaniel.

Nathaniel asked him seriously, “How is he in real life?”

“Just average,” Mason lied, fearing Nathaniel’s anger.

“Go ahead and discuss with him.”

“Okay.”

Mason descended the stairs, making his way to the waiting room, where he first handed the contract to Eric.

Sign the contract first, and we can discuss the job afterward.”

After giving it a quick glance, Eric found no issues, and thus, he signed the contract company’s new product that

needs promotion. It’s also your first job. Do it well.”

It was the first tthat Eric had gotten an advertisement so quickly.

Upon opening it, he froze on the spot. &
