My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 2045

Nathan raised up his hands with an innocent look on his face. "Why should we risk dealing with those peasants when we can simply get rid of our sad past? What's more, I simply played along. The Milton family intended to make us their scapegoats. Luckily, I discovered their plot and managed to escape. They wanted me dead. Hendrix is my son. He'd naturally want to avenge me. Nothing wrong with that, right?"

Anger erupted in my heart. I retorted loudly, "The problem is that you're standing here, alive! You even want Hendrix dead! You wanted to kill him and have destroyed his life. What right do you have to call him your son?"

Do you think we're just like you? Let me tell you how Hendrix's hereditary blindness has been controlled up till now..."
