Following a brief pause, Nathan nodded before following Zivon upstairs…
Once they were in the study, he was prompted to ask, “Um… Have you already come up with another idea, Young Master Burton…?”
Nodding in response, Zivon replied, “Knowing Liam, he’ll probably only get worse from here on out. With that in mind, we need to always be one step ahead of him. How’s his mother looking?”
“Well… aside from a few minor injuries, she’s mostly fine,” said Nathan, who knew for a fact that Zivon had actually ordered someone to save that old woman at the last minute. In other words, she hadn’t suffered any burns at all! It had all been an illusion to scare Liam and make him feel pain!
Regardless, after hearing that, Zivon nodded and said, “Alright, be sure to keep the illusion up. In fact, make it seem like his mother’s condition has gone critical by tomorrow.”
“…Will do. Um… Are you trying to completely corner him, Young Master Burton…? Though I agree that this will surely do the truck, knowing Liam, this will only make him more dangerous…”
Tapping his marble table a few times, Zivon then said, “…Don’t worry, I know how to deal with him.”
Fast forward to that night, news of Liam’s horrible actions continued spreading across the internet. In fact, things got so bad that even the doctors and nurses attending to him had to actively fight back the urge to run away! To make matters worse, the patients surrounding his ward were all talking behind his back as well!
“That’s the one. The person who left his mother behind for the sake of money…!”
