Chapter 78 Preparations (Nikolas POV)

The onion soup was delicious, and I could not believe Aliana was a good cook. I would find time to have kitchen adventures with her. We deserved an everyday life, and I was aiming for it.

We left Gabriel’s house and headed to the safe house at the back of the palace. We used it to interrogate criminals or people we suspected of wrongdoing. I had never used it before but planned to use it today. I needed all the information I could get from Newton to know who he was in league with.

I sent for Doctor Newton and Qusack, and Abraham went to get him. They told him he needed to check on me. He had no clue what the safe house was used for, so he wouldn’t be on alert. A chair with silver chains was ready so we could; bind him and torture him.

I was angry, and I felt manipulated. I wondered what the asshole was thinking when he chose to join up, and I had a feeling he had something to do with the disappearance of my Dr Adams. Because the only way he could have gotten the job is if Adams disappeared. I could not wait to drill him for answers.

Qusack ushered him in, and he had come with his bag. He was indeed prepared to check me. The moment he stepped it, realisation dawned on his face. There wasn’t really much to hide. There were silver chains, Chairs and a table. It was pretty obvious what was about to happen.

The bastard tried to turn around and leave, but Abraham was behind him and had locked the door. “I think you should have a seat, Newton,” I said calmly, and he became scared. I guess he figured that fighting would be unwise because he was outnumbered and outmatched. He sat down, looking frightened. And once he was seated, Qusack secured him with the silver chains. Once that was done, The fear was more pronounced.

“Newton,” I said calmly, and he was attentive.

“How many of you are working for Fredrick?” I asked, and his eyes widened.

He tried to pretend he had no idea what I was talking about.

“Wrong move, Newton,” Qusack said, and the Dr still looked clueless, so Qusack punched him in the face breaking his nose in the process.

“I am not the patient type, and neither am I diplomatic. We either do this the easy way or the hard way, and trust me, the hard way would be more fun for us,” I said to him calmly, and he sobbed.
