Chapter 1404


    Ruth finally realized Nigel’s true strength when she was about to be captured and called out to


    Cynthia,” Cynthia, run! He is too strong! Run and tell Leon about this!”


    Cynthia snapped out of it at her words and turned to run.


    All she needed to do was to alert Leon and he would be able to save Ruth.


    “Trying to run? You won’t get away!” Nigel sneered. Determined to make Cynthia his, he was not about


    to let her leave.


    He leaped into the air and sent off his true energy toward Cynthia’s back.


    Cynthia gasped in fear when she felt the energy swarming at her.


    Even Ruth, who was in the Advanced Supreme State, could not defeat Nigel, so there was no way that


    Cynthia could rival Nigel when she was only in the Initial Supreme State.


    Luckily, Nigel was captured by her beauty and did not attack in full force.


    Cynthia barely escaped his attack but was instantly rendered helpless before she could fight back


    when Nigel jabbed her at her Energy Core Point.


    The two guards who worked for Nigel began to recover from their injuries and stood from the ground.


    “Take them with us!” Nigel sneered, before striding off after ordering his guards to capture Ruth and


    Cynthia.


    All the drama Nigel caused alerted all the employees inside the firm, including the manufacturing


    director,


    Otis.


    Otis only managed to be a director of Cynthion Group because of Leon, so he was grateful all


    along.


    When he saw that Cynthia and Ruth were captured, he immediately called Leon and reported to him


    about it.


    Leon was furious as he did not expect Nigel to be so bold.


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    He instantly cast his task of producing alchemical pills aside and drove toward the Scammells Mansion


    with Iris and Snow.


    On their way to the Scammells Mansion, Iris was worried about Ruth and Cynthia, so she called


    Damian in hope that he could help to stop Nigel from harming Ruth and Cynthia. However, Damian was


    too upied with supplying the herbs Leon needed and was stuck in the office for the past few days,


    so he ced Penny in charge of stopping Nigel instead.


    In a luxurious residential area just a few kilometers away from the Scammells Mansion, countless


    wealthy and powerful figures resided and that was where Nigel purchased a mansion of his own a few


    years ago.


    Despite his womanizing nature, he never dared to take any woman home as he did not wish to be


    punished. by Patrick. Hence, he took women to his mansion to enjoy himself freely.


    He took Cynthia and Ruth hostage mainly to get at Leon, and considering Leon’s rtionship with the


    Scammells, Nigel could not possibly take them back to the Scammells Mansion, or Leon might alert


    Damian and Patrick.


    Nigel was smart enough to avoid drawing unnecessary attention to himself.
