Noble Pampering: Demon CEO's Relentless Entanglement-Chapter 660 - 656: The Time to End Has Come (Part 3)
Half an hour later, the news of Nathan Land’s death quickly spread throughout the Land Family’s old mansion.
This was unexpected for Enzo Land. He frantically ran to Nathan Land’s master bedroom, only to see Ace Williams just covering Nathan Land’s body with a white sheet.
"No! This can’t be true!" Enzo Land rushed over and tore off the white sheet.
"Uncle, please be respectful; the dead cannot come back to life. What are you doing?" Luke Land also walked over, pulling Enzo Land away from Nathan Land’s bedside.
"My brother can’t be dead; it must be you, it must be you who killed him!" Enzo Land pointed at Asher Land, his face full of anger, "It must be you, you bastard!"
Asher Land sneered indifferently, unperturbed by Enzo Land’s accusations, "Uncle, please stop slandering me with such words."
"You! ..."
"Isn’t our priority now to let Father rest in peace?" Asher Land’s gaze fell on Luke Land, "Brother, Father said before he died that he wanted to be cremated and have his ashes taken back to Asia. As his sons, shouldn’t we fulfill this wish?"
"No! He can’t be cremated. I want to call a coroner for an autopsy!"
"Uncle, he’s already dead, is there any need to do this?" This time, Oscar Land’s attitude was also firm. The three brothers knew if Nathan Land were sent to the coroner, some things shouldn’t be uncovered might be revealed, and then the blame would inevitably point to them. So, Enzo Land must not be allowed to do that.
"Someone! Someone!" Enzo Land shouted a few times on the spot, but no one paid him any heed. Watching the motionless bodyguards and guards in the room, Enzo Land couldn’t help but frown.
"What do you mean by this? Are you all ignoring what I say?" Enzo Land snorted, "With my brother’s death, I’m the eldest in the Land Family. You won’t listen to me?"
"Oh, are you trying to use your seniority to suppress us?" Luke Land sneered disdainfully. What does it mean to be the eldest in the Land Family? According to him, with Nathan Land’s death, does Enzo Land think he’s the decision-maker of the Land Family now? That’s wishful thinking. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
In the room, apart from Enzo Land who was fretting around, everyone else remained calm and unmoved.
"Fine, since none of you are willing to listen to me and send my brother to the coroner for examination, I will personally call the coroner!" Enzo Land turned and was about to walk out, unexpectedly, several guards reacted quickly, like lightning, blocking his way.
"What are you trying to do?" Enzo Land sensed something was amiss.
"Uncle, it’s too late."
Asher Land’s gaze swept to the doorway where a group of men in uniform blue work suits entered. They were workers from the crematorium. After a brief consultation with Asher Land, they directly took Nathan Land’s body away.
"Stop! You can’t take my brother away!" Enzo Land ran to the door, trying to stop them.
"Sir, please restrain your grief." With that, the workers, ignoring Enzo Land’s obstruction, directly took the body away.
Enzo Land clutched his aching chest, his face pale with anger.
With Nathan Land dead, the entire Land Family was leaderless. He originally thought he could replace him, but judging from the current situation, he had been outsmarted.
None of the Land Family’s guards or bodyguards were willing to listen to him; they all followed Asher Land’s lead. If they hadn’t manipulated things, how would the situation have turned out like this?
