Chapter 24

ผู้เขียน: Blanc Ball
The words "death sentence" struck Bethany like a thunderclap. Her vision darkened, and she nearly fainted on the spot.

Fortunately, Henry offered a glimmer of hope. If she was willing to spend enough money, there might still be a way to save Nathan.

"Mr. Specter, as long as you can get my son out, I'll pay whatever it takes," Bethany said hurriedly. "Even if I have to sell my house, I will save him!"

Henry explained that the only way forward was to bribe a hospital into issuing a certificate declaring Nathan mentally ill. If they could prove he had a psychiatric disorder, the law would absolve him of criminal responsibility. Instead of being sentenced to prison, he would be confined to a psychiatric hospital.

"Once Nathan is admitted," Henry continued, "we'll find a way to get him out. But it will take a lot of money to smooth things over. If you want to save your son, start raising funds immediately."

Without hesitation, Bethany rushed home and began selling everything she could.

    Blood covered Clara from head to toe, but Nathan showed no signs of stopping. His eyes burned crimson, and the way he struck her again and again, it was as if he meant to beat her to death right there on the street.In the end, it was only thanks to the hospital's security staff arriving in time that he was restrained. If they had been a moment later, Nathan might have killed her in his blind fury.But even though the security guards had intervened, the damage was already done. The crowd of onlookers had captured every brutal moment on their phones, and soon, the footage spread like wildfire across the internet.By nightfall, Nathan's name dominated the headlines again. This time, the news was even more sensational. [Nathan Marshal Loses Control, Beats Mistress in Public, Nearly Causes Fatality!]When the initial affair scandal broke, Larry had spent a fortune trying to suppress the news, hoping to contain the fallout. But before the dust had settled, this new video emerged and sur

    Lately, Nathan's mind had been consumed by Phoebe. He had spent his days spiraling out of control outside the hospital, oblivious to the storm brewing online.It wasn't until he overheard the murmurs of passing strangers that he remembered something Ian had said before leaving. Something about uploading a video online.His heart sank. With trembling fingers, he pulled out his phone and searched. Sure enough, the video was everywhere.When Ian released the footage, he had blurred Phoebe's face and those of the doctors who performed her surgery. But Nathan and Clara? Their faces were laid bare for the world to see.The video detonated like a bomb, sending shockwaves through social media. Outraged viewers flooded the comment sections with condemnation.[I can't believe it. Nathan, the so-called 'Nation's Most Ideal Husband,' is actually this disgusting behind closed doors. I used to like him, but after seeing this, I feel like I swallowed a live cockroach.][I always knew he was a f

    "Clara," Nathan said coldly. "You seemed pretty pleased with yourself in that video. Did you really think that once Phoebe left me, you could take her place and become my wife?"He laughed, the sound harsh and full of scorn. "Dream on. Why would I ever marry a cheap slut like you? In my eyes, you're no different from those women who sell themselves in nightclubs. I only slept with you a few times. Don't let it get to your head."Without warning, Nathan grabbed her by the throat. His fury burned hot and uncontrollable, and Clara had walked straight into the fire. He shoved her against the wall, his rage spilling over as his fists landed on her without mercy."You dared to provoke Phoebe?" he spat, his voice rough and venomous. "Who gave you the guts to do that? A filthy woman like you isn't even qualified to be compared to her. You're not worth a single toe of hers—comparing you to Phoebe is an insult to her."But hitting her wasn't enough to cool his anger. He grabbed a fistful of

    Nathan rushed to the hospital the moment he could. In his naive assumption, Phoebe was still there, resting in a hospital bed. What he didn't know was that while he had been entangled with Clara, Phoebe had already boarded a flight to another country."Let me in! My wife is inside! I need to see her!" he shouted the moment he arrived, only to find himself in a heated argument with the security guards at the hospital gate.The hospital exclusively served the military and was not open to the public. Previously, Ian's influence had granted Nathan access, but now that privilege had been revoked. Without Ian's permission, the gates were firmly shut against him.Nathan tried to force his way inside, but the guards were not ordinary retirees. They were former soldiers—tall, broad, and thoroughly trained. If not for the hospital's strict policy against physical confrontation with civilians, they would have easily pinned him to the ground.When brute force failed, Nathan switched tactics.

    Larry and Bethany had far too much faith in their household staff.Ian and his men had all served in the military. Ordinary people didn't stand a chance against them. Ian didn't even lift a finger. With a simple gesture, one of his subordinates took down the entire group of servants as if they were nothing more than paper dolls.The flash drives remained in Ian's possession. Worse still, several guests had recorded the chaotic scene on their phones. Once those videos made their way online, the Marshal family's already crumbling reputation would be completely shattered.In the middle of the commotion, Ian drove off in his SUV, leaving nothing behind but a cloud of dust. Bethany, on the other hand, collapsed to the floor. Tears poured down her face as she wailed. "Oh, dear heavens, what are we going to do? The Harris family is trying to destroy us!""You disgraceful fool!" With Ian gone, Larry had no one left to vent his rage on but his own son. He marched over and struck Nathan ha
