The price of betrayal (Jack and Ashley) novel Chapter 359

At this moment, Megan did not return to the company but instead went to the hospital.

Olivia and Chase were eating fruit and chatting in the ward. When they saw her arrive, their eyes instantly brightened.

"Megan, we knew you'd be here. So, is there any good news? How's Nolan? Is he in bad shape? Do you have any videos or photos? Show us!"

Chase immediately added, "Yes, Meg. Let me see what he looks like now. I've been dying to know."

Looking at their excited expressions, Megan shook her head. "I'm afraid you'll be disappointed… Nolan is… perfectly fine!"

The words "perfectly fine" sent Olivia and Chase into a frenzy.

"What are you talking about, Megan? What's going on? Didn't we agree to teach Nolan a lesson and make him pay? Why is this happening now?"

At this point, Olivia frowned and gritted her teeth. "Megan, don't tell me you still have feelings for him and couldn't bring yourself to go through with it. If that's the case, you'll truly disappoint us.

"Look at Chase and I. Look at how he's bullied us. Megan, how will you ever hold your head high in Bellington if word of this gets out? You'll become a laughingstock."

At this moment, Chase, unsure if he was performing or truly in pain, sat up and said with a look of suffering, "Meg, even if you won't take revenge for us, at least think about yourself. We're your family! You can't just ignore us."

Megan was already irritated. The repeated, unexpected occurrences had already made her extremely frustrated. She was on the brink of losing it, especially when Nolan's Spirit of Life Serum was confirmed to be real.

Seeing them still pushing her, she shouted angrily, "Enough! Do you both even know anything? You're just sitting here spouting nonsense!

"He not only knows Mr. Baxter, but he also has the Baxter family supporting him without question. Most importantly, where did he get the Spirit of Life Serum from? That is something so many people desire but can't get. How did he obtain it?

"And the most infuriating thing is that he gave such a precious thing to a cleaner! It's unbelievable!"

The thought of Jennifer looking decades younger after drinking the Spirit of Life Serum—her fair, radiant skin glowing with youth—filled Megan with unbearable jealousy.

"Mom, Chase, I suggest you temporarily stop going after Nolan. The Baxter family is protecting him with everything they've got. Do you know how Mr. Shaun was treated today? He had to strip naked and crawl like a dog in front of everyone!

"That's the price of offending Nolan, and Mr. Baxter didn't say anything during all of it. I hope you understand the consequences."
