"What is the point of you guys staying married then if you're just a business transaction to him?" Nolan's fave started to grow red as he grew heated. "You're worth a lot more than just a piece for him to move around as he pleases. You should sue him for emotional distress and get us back what we should have had if you never got sick. He's a beast if you're nothing to him."

Ellie was taken aback at the passion with which he spoke. His expressions and gestures had grown more aggressive and exaggerated. "Nolan, why do you hate Henry this much?"

Nolan froze as he realized that Ellie had never seen the other dark side of Henry's character. When she saw it, he knew she would not feel the same. He didn't want to be the purveyed of such news so he switched gears. "You know I've never really had a full conversation with him. He's always so busy doing so many things." Nolan racked his brain for something that would throw Ellie off the scent. He knew if it was something nice he could say about the man, he would be off the hook. "You know Henry is always really kind to have let me use this house and give orders to his staff for your well being. He even had Michael sent me a text message about your doctor's appointment with Wu and that all the tests came back to the effect that you don't need to be transferred to a hospital for detox treatment. I really appreciate these things that Henry has done for us to relieve my burden." Nolan bit down on his tongue but he knew he could not lie to his own sister. He crumpled under her unmoving gaze. "But please I don't want you to stay married to him. The idea of having such a beast for an older brother makes me want to vomit. I hate the way this situation makes me feel so helpless. I'm scared of what he will do in the future when he does not need us anymore."Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

Crinkles of concern appeared in the corners of her eyes as Ellie's expression. As she opened her mouth to speak a dark tone cut her off before she could get anything out. "If I really am what you say you are, I would have hurt you already. I'm not going to do anything more to your family, Nolan. In terms of fear, if you are truly scared of me that is very silly of you." Henry walked into the room through the ajar door perusing what Ellie assumed was emails on a company tablet. He didn't look up as he continued. "Your lovely sister and I have discussed our future together already and have made a decision. To calm your childish fear, we are going to have an annulment to dissolve this marriage. However, we decided this for our own gains. This marriage no longer suits our needs so it will end."
