Chapter 204 Serious Injury
Chloe's expression looked visibly unpleasant. Half an hour later, Nixon was cleaned up and dressed, but he remained unconscious. In the spacious living room of the Lanes' residence. Everyone's expression looked particularly unpleasant, Caleb hurriedly came out of Nixon's room on the second floor and walked over to Chole. He looked at her, hesitating to speak.
"How's Nixon?" Chloe asked.
Chloe took a quick glance earlier, thinking that Nixon had just been undressed. Caleb, avoiding eye contact, appeared nervous.
"Tell me!" Chloe urged.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Caleb lowered his head and honestly reported, "Mr. Nixon had injuries on his body, some bruises. Should I call a doctor?"
*Just some minor injuries, he'll be fine," Chloe said without much concern.
What Caleb said next made her turn pale.
"Mr. Nixon has a tear in his body, as if it's been stretched open..."
Caleb didn't finish speaking, but everyone there seemed to have understood. Stretched ... open...
If Chloe didn't constantly criticize Scott for being an illegitimate child, he wouldn't want to give her a reason to trouble him. Scott almost burst out laughing. What exactly happened to Nixon? Tsk... Hayden sensed something, and even though he didn't like Nixon as his son, his expression
"A doctor? Do the Lanes need to be further embarrassed?"
n soured.
Chloe's face displayed a mix of anger and disdain. She knew exactly what happened to Nixon.
Her sympathy vanished when she recalled that day on the phone, hearing Rose say not to let him off easily. She should have understood that Nixon's fate was orchestrated by Jonathan. As Nixon's grandma, she would seek justice for her grandson, no matter who harmed him, except for Jonathan. However, Jonathan was the exact person they were dealing with. Taking a deep breath, she could sense Jonathan's anger. To salvage the Lane, she had to make quick decisions and distance herself from Nixon.
"Bring Mr. Nixon down," Chloe calmly instructed.
Caleb hesitated.
"Mr. Nixon is still unconscious...
"No need to wait for him to wake up."
Chloe preferred not waking up Nixon, as facing him would be more awkward. Caleb followed orders. As he went upstairs, he heard Chloe's voice again.
"Hayden, immediately issue a statement on behalf of Lanes Group, announcing the cutting of ties with Nixon. Anything related to Nixon is no longer associated with the Lunes."

Chloe's tone was cold. Not only Hayden but even Scott was also shocked. Chloe had always wanted Nixon to inherit the Lanes' family business, supporting him extensively. Suddenly setting such a clear boundary feels like abandoning Nixon, as if she's trying to make her stance clear to someone. Hayden didn't ask questions.
He immediately said, "Alright, I'll personally release the statement!"
After Hayden and Scott left, Caleb quickly carried Nixon down.
"Mrs. Lane Senior, where should we place Mr. Nixon?"
Caleb didn't dare to make decisions. Chloe didn't even look at Nixon.
"Find a place with high foot traffic near the Finch Building," she instructed.
Chloe was aware that everything she did was for Jonathan to see. Hoping he would see the Lanes' attitude and let them go.
Nixon was left in a bustling downtown area. Initially, bystanders recorded videos and shared them on social media. The video quickly went viral.
Someone quickly recognized him as Mr. Nixon, the Lane Group's son. Later, the Lane Group announced the cutting of ties with Nixon. Kelly's face darkened when she saw the news. Nixon's silence for days, followed by this situation, could only mean that Jonathan was very angry. The angrier Jonathan got, the more important Rose was to him,
"Damn it!"
Kelly was furious. Thinking about the agreed time with Angelica, Kelly gritted her teeth. This time, she had to convince ANgelica to help her with this act, no matter what.
At Zenwood Gardens. Rose, who hadn't been out for days, scrolled through Twitter and came across the news. The Finches were punishing the Lanes
Rose knew that this was the work of the star escort husband. She didn't expect that the star escort husband, a distant relative of the Finches, could make them support her like this.
Did he go to beg Jonathan? Jonathan seemed to be in Aquastead... Rose became more certain of her guess. The video of Nixon seemed to release the pent-up tension and gloom from the past few days. Rose walked out the door, locking eyes with the star escort's husband:
"Here, I've made some soup. Now that your tongue is better, you should be able to eat something. Let's have something light. I cooked this soup for hours, let it cool, and now it's just the right temperature. Jonathan in casual clothes, wearing a floral apron. Rose looked, feeling a bit dazed.
Rose
"You've been quite idle these days," said, looking at his shoulders and thinking about Anastasia.
-Anastasia was supposed to take care of him, but he came to take care of her. She almost had that illusion again, the feeling of being important to him.
Rose sat down at the dining table, while Jonathan remained momentarily stunned. This was the first time

in the past few days that Rose took the initiative to look at him and talk to him.
With a hint of joy in his heart, Jonathan, acting like a loyal dog, brought a bowl of soup to Rose.
"Haven't I been quite idle all along?"
In the past few days, with the Finches' affairs, Finley didn't want to bother him. Jonathan had a big smile on his face, distracting Rose.
Noticing her distraction, Rose's gaze flickered, and she quickly changed the subject to shift her attention.
"About Nixon, you used your favor with Jonathan to get help. But don't worry, I understand the worth of Jonathan's favors, and I won't let your efforts go to waste," Rose said while sipping soup.
Jonathan stared at Rose. He wanted to tell her that he was Jonathan. After a moment of silence, he
hesitated.
"He's willing to help. I told him that about Nixon, the Lanes should bear the burden in secret. After this in Aquastead, there might not be the Lanes anymore."
Rose was briefly stunned. Is he planning to completely destroy the Lanes Group? For the Finches, destroying the Lanes' Group is like squashing an ant.
Can the favor from her star escort husband bring the Finches to this height? Rose stared at her star escort husband with curiosity. Suddenly, suspicion arose in her. "Are you and the Finches merely relatives?"
Families could have different levels of closeness and complexity. Jonathan led the Finches now, but she heard his father has brothers. Could the star escort husband be...? "You're not Jonathan, are you?"
