Chapter 295 Mr. Rhys Is Coming (Part One)
Rainer approached Carla in an attempt to tell her something. However, he could only mumble to
himself.
At that moment, Carla was watching a TV series on a tablet. She looked up at him and asked, "What's
the matter, Rainer? Do you have something to tell me?"
Rainer secretly looked at Terence who was busy with his work in front of his desk. Then, he rolled up
his sleeves to show her his arms. He said, "Miss Carla, look at this. Since you left, we had suffered a
lot..."
Carla was surprised to see the bruises on his arms.
"Did Terence mistreat you?" she asked, confusion apparent in her eyes.
Rainer turned to look at Terence once again. Then he replied, "Yes, of course. He openly abused us.
During those days when you weren't here, he would ask us to practice boxing with him. That happened
every single day, Miss Carla. As a result, he beat Nathan and me until we were black and blue!
But it was my brother that had it the worst. Every time, he would get the hardest hits just for giving Mr.
Terence some advice..."
In theory, injuries were unavoidable in a boxing ring. However, according to Rainer's statements, they
got so much more than that. He and his brother were particularly miserable.
"Don't you have anything to do right now, Rainer? Have you forgotten your own duty?"
Suddenly, a cold voice from behind Rainer was heard. Frightened, he immediately turned around and
quickly ran outside when he saw who it was.
Essentially, he was Terence's bodyguard first and foremost. He should be responsible for protecting
him. Second, he was Terence's personal assistant. So he would often follow Terence around and would
inevitably do some errands for him.
Terence looked at Rainer's back with a sullen look on his face. After setting the documents that he was
holding on the desk, he got up and approached Carla.
"Don't believe whatever he said, Darling. After I came back from NF City, I practiced boxing during my
free time. They were hurt because of their poor skills. You can't blame me for that!" Terence explained
while he sat down beside her and placed his arm around her shoulder.
Carla leaned on his shoulder. Then she looked up at him and asked, "What advice did Nathan give
you?"
'Perhaps, Nathan gave him some advice that he didn't want to take, ' she thought.
"It's nothing. I forgot about it already," Terence said, dismissing the topic. With a thoughtful look on his
face, he subconsciously held onto her more tightly.
It was impossible for him to give her up.
The same was true for her.
When she went to NF City, she knew that there would be many risks along the way. But despite that,
she didn't give up, braving through the dense forest in order to find him.
At that time, she just wanted to find him. She didn't care whether she would live or die. But since she
forgot about him for a while because of her brain impairment, why should he just give her up?
So, every single time Nathan persuaded him not to have too much hope in Carla remembering their
past, he would fly into a rage right away.
"Terence, I actually..."
Carla was about to say something to Terence when Rainer suddenly interrupted her and said, "Mr.
Terence, the senior family members wanted to know if the meeting would still push through as
scheduled."
"Yes!"
Terence shouted at Rainer while he glared at him. 'It's still early. Can't the old guys just wait patiently for
a few minutes?' he thought.
"What was it, darling? What did you want to say earlier?" Terence asked Carla, who was comfortably
resting her head on his chest.
Carla didn't know how to respond so she resorted to changing the subject. She cleared her throat and
asked, "Well, what are you going to do about your elder brother's crimes?"
In fact, she was about to finally tell him about what actually happened to her, but she didn't have
enough courage to do it at that moment.
Terence suddenly turned serious, then he said, "At that time, grandpa showed father the surveillance
video taken from the ward in the hospital. Also, I seized the men who tried to get rid of you and they
confessed that Marcus was the one who sent them. Besides, there was strong evidence that Marcus
had privately taken possession of the Ans' minerals business in NF City. I also showed them the
evidence that Marcus was the one responsible for the plane crash that I was on. I handed all these
pieces of evidence to the senior family members.
If any member of the family made a mistake or did something wrong, he or she would be first examined
by the senior family members. If what the member did was really immoral and unforgivable, they would
personally send the family member to prison."
While listening to Terence, Carla seemed to remember something. "There's one thing I've been
wondering about. I heard that your eldest brother wanted to harm your grandpa. He did inject some Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
drug into his transfusion bottle, but how did your grandpa survive?" she asked.
Holding her gently in his arms, Terence said in a low voice, "Grandpa changed the drug."
"Ah? Is that so?" she exclaimed. Carla was a bit amazed. She couldn't believe that Grandpa Nicholas
would do that. After all, he was patient and proper. Not even once had she seen him act
inappropriately.
"In fact, we already knew about Marcus's plot at that time. So we prepared an identical syringe in
advance. It was grandpa who changed the syringe when Marcus was not looking. Even if it was difficult
for him to do that, the nurse who was responsible for taking care of him would try her best to help him,"
Terence continued to narrate.
Carla was dumbfounded with what she had been finding out. 'It was such a close call! It was just lucky
that Grandpa Nicholas was finally safe, ' she thought.
"Won't your father stop you from sending your eldest brother to prison?" Carla continued her questions.
'Since Edmund has been so partial to Marcus, how could he have the heart to send him to prison?' she
thought to herself.
