Chapter 474
To be honest, her son had been acting very strangely lately.
Could he really have Alzheimer’s?
“Oh, you silly boy. Even I, your old mother, haven’t gone senile. How could you have Alzheimer’s?”
“There’s nothing there. How could your grandfather be standing there?”
She slapped him on the head, trying to snap him out of it.
But Nathan kept backing away, his eyes wide with terror. “Grandpa, don’t come any
closer! Don’t wear that awful long robe! If you want to visit me, at least wear
something more respectable. You’re scaring me!”
He stumbled backward, retreating in panic.
The grandmother was shocked.
Colin froze. Dad… what was happening to him?
“Grandma, what’s wrong with Dad? He seems to be losing his mind.”
Colin stared at his father in horror.
The grandmother said sorrowfully, “Colin, the doctor says your father has Alzheimer’s. He also has high blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar. He’s been fainting a lot lately and forgetting what he’s doing. The past two days, he’s even been incontinent. He just turned fifty. How could he have Alzheimer’s already?”
“My poor, miserable son. What’s going to happen to him?” The grandmother cried, beating her chest in despair.
Colin was speechless.
He was completely stunned.
“Dad, there’s nothing there. Great-grandpa isn’t there.”
“Shut up, you failure! Why didn’t you die out there? You’re alive, and you’re in my
way! All four of you brothers must die!”
Nathan, terrified and furious, viciously slapped Colin across the face.
Colin was stunned.
The grandmother was horrified. How could he say such a thing?
No matter what, that was her grandson.
Wendy could die, that little brat Natalie could die, but she couldn’t bear to lose her four grandsons.
“Dad… what did you say?” Colin touched his stinging cheek, looking at his father in disbelief. Dad wanted him and his brothers to die.
Nathan also seemed to realize what
he’d just said He quickly
backtracked, “Whardid say? Did just Say something? I don’t remember saying anything.
“Mother, please, make Grandpa go away! He’s standing right in front of me! I’m scared! I’m so scared! He says he’s going to strangle me that he’s too lonely over there.”
Nathan kept retreating, flailing his arms at the empty space before him.
Meanwhile, just outside the door, Wendy watched Nathan’s frantic display, a faint, cold smile touching her lips. Nathan, next up is that S of yours. You we lovebirds
woma
won’t have to sneak around
anymore. I’ll make sure you’re bound together for eternity.”
Wendy’s eyes turned dark and menacing as she turned and walked away.
Back at her home, Natalie received a video from one of the maids.
Watching the video and hearing what Colin had said, a murderous glint appeared in her eyes.
What was happening to Nathan was Wendy’s doing—giving him a taste of his own medicine.
Seeing Nathan’s suffering, she knew the poison must cause hallucinations. It was colorless, odorless, and undetectable by hospital tests.
But Colin… he was born rotten. For Colin, she would retaliate without mercy.
Natalie transferred a sum of money to the sender, then went to shower and sleep. The next morning, Taylor called her, telling her to go to the Office to complete the paperwork.
As Natalie arrived at the entrance, Colin blocked her path. “Natalie, stop right there.”
