Chapter 357 He Wants Kelly

Amid his thoughts, Gabriel suddenly heard movements behind him.

He turned around, and shock overcame him upon seeing the person who entered the room. "Sir..."

It was Oliver.

Oliver sat in the wheelchair, his face calm and serene-his eyes, as deep as a pool, betrayed no emotions. Despite Gabriel calling out to him, he appeared as though he hadn't registered the sound.

But Gabriel was sure that Oliver had heard Nixon's words just now.

Oliver was unmoving for a moment, then turned without any change in his expression.

"Sir..." Gabriel wanted to catch up, but Nixon's voice continued behind him.

"Uncle Jonathan, Kelly is a relentless person when it comes to achieving her goals. You should seek revenge on her. Her malice toward Rose is much greater than mine. You should send her to where Rose is." Although Nixon made this plea, it didn't absolve him of being the cause of Rose's demise in that explosion.

Jonathan's gaze was deep. He stared silently at Nixon, and a sense of despair gradually emerged in Nixon's eyes.

It seemed his fate was undoubtedly sealed.

Though unwilling and unprepared to meet his end, Nixon could only hope to have a swift death-at the very least, to have his body intact and not reduced to fish food. "Uncle... Uncle Jonathan..."

Nixon wished to beg for a more merciful death. But just as he uttered those words, Jonathan finally spoke. "You... don't need to die."

Nixon's body trembled, and his mind went blank for a moment.
