Chapter 2104



After Hansel left, uneasiness filled the room. Only Nathan remained a calm composure.

Hesitantly, Penny approached Nathan. "Hubby," she whispered uncertainly. "There... there have been some rumors going around..."

"Oh?” replied Nathan. "What rumors?"

Penny hesitated. How much should she reveal? "I heard... I heard the people saying that the Davier family is no longer tolerating you. Clifford has been talking about dealing with you..."

Fidgeting anxiously, she continued, "According to the rumors, Clifford has even gone to visit the President and Chief Military Governor, and both have promised to remain neutral and not interfere."

"And now," Penny added. "Clifford is holding a feast, inviting all those in power and every one of their followers and men... Hubby, are they going to harm you?" she swallowed in fear.

Kylie, Queenie, and everyone in the room stared at Nathan, tensed, awaiting his response.

To their amazement, Nathan smiled easily. "Don't worry," he reassured Penny and the rest of the crowd. "Things aren't as bad as it seems. Besides, even if the Daviers don't come looking for trouble, I will still have scores to settle with that family."

"It'll be fine, I promise," Nathan declared confidently.

Those words did nothing to calm Penny's nerves but rather enhanced them. But... it's Clifford himself this time that's coming after you... Wasn't he the one who stripped you off your previous title? And now, with neither the President's nor the Chief Military Governor's support, how are you going to overcome this, hubby?
