Chapter 422 I-It Was Young Master Nolan
“Y-Young Master Brian, please don’t do this!”
Brian frowned slightly. Why did this man address me as ‘Young Master Brian’? Don’t tell me; does he work for the Nolan Family? “What’s your name?”
“I-Isaac Black.” Brian asked, “Tell me everything and I’ll spare you from torture. Otherwise, I’ll give you a taste of these toys, one by one!”
Isaac Black trembled with fear. “I-I can’t tell you!” “I guess you want a taste after all.” Then, Brian instructed, “Let’s start with the whip.”
Isaac cried, “No! No! Young Master Brian, please have mercy on me!”
In response, Brian just impatiently gave a wave of his hand. Two bodyguards immediately stepped forward to drag Isaac toward the whip.
Isaac instantly started screaming, “Ahh! Young Master Brian! No! Stop! I’ll talk! I’ll talk!”
Brian lifted his hand. “Speak!”
Then, Isaac secretly stole a glance at Brian as he hesitantly said, “Um… Young Master Brian, please let me go once I tell you. After all, I’m not the mastermind behind this.”
“Speak first!”
He said, “I-It was Young Master Nolan.”
Upon hearing those words, Brian froze in shock. “What did you say?!”
“It was Young Master Nolan. After you left with the madam back then, Young Master Nolan struggled to gain a foothold within the Nolan Family. For him to gain a strong footing, he needed to gain the trust of Lara Roberts and Edward Nolan. He needed to make them believe that he had truly abandoned both of you and was willingly staying back at the Nolan Residence. For that reason, he deliberately arranged for that accident to happen.”
Brian’s eyes reddened. “Impossible!” If he said that my brother abandoned us, I would’ve believed him. But, killing my mother? That’s utter bullsh*t! I know how important my mother was to my brother and me. After all, we didn’t have a father in our lives; we only had our mother! How could Eugene kill our mother? It’s impossible!
Isaac glanced at him again. “Well; to be honest, Young Master Nolan didn’t want the madam to die. All he wanted was to put on a show. However, there were too many uncertain factors on the road. It was raining that day and visibility was poor. Somebody rear-ended my car and it led to the madam’s death.”
Brian’s eyes were distraught. If Isaac had insisted that Eugene was the mastermind behind it, Brian might not have believed him. After being in contact with Eugene, he had learned more about him during this time—so much so that he felt that Eugene might have had a secret reason for not leaving with them back then. Unfortunately, he now somewhat believed what Isaac was saying. Eugene may have deliberately tried to harm us as a symbol of his stance in order to gain a stable footing within the Nolan Family. Otherwise, how could this man know so much about it?
They had suspected Lara of being behind the incident back then. However, they had no concrete evidence. Besides, they were too young and powerless—they couldn’t even take care of themselves. For that same reason, they had not been targeted either.
Although Brian’s influence was slowly increasing, bit by bit, it was still incomparable to that of Lara and Edward, who had been spreading their influence for many years. I’m going to take my time and grow my strength. I will get my revenge sooner or later. Still, I can’t imagine that Eugene would be among my enemies. Although I hated him and blamed him, I never considered him to be an enemy. Now, what a joke that turned out to be! How could I have regarded that ungrateful murderer as my brother?! Hahahaha…
The more Brian thought about it, the angrier he got. His blue eyes were filled with bloodlust—he looked like a man-eating demon. Turning to Isaac abruptly, he snarled, “If I find out you lied to me, I will kill you!”
Isaac was so scared that he quivered in fear. “I-I didn’t.”
At that moment, Brian’s phone rang all of a sudden. Taking it out, he saw that the call was from Eugene. Thus, he answered it expressionlessly but said nothing. Eugene’s voice came through the phone. “Why aren’t you here yet?”
“I’ll be right there!” Brian spat out with an icy expression. Then, he added, “Come down and get me in half an hour.” After saying that, he hung up.
