Chapter 280 “Yes, Master Nicholas.” The housekeeper nodded.
The surveillance footage at that time was soon found.
In the beginning, it was only Hayley and Gregory who appeared in the camera footage.
In the footage, she was indeed talking to him and was even half-squatting. It seemed that she was trying
to please the child, but he didn’t speak and merely shook his head.
Then, suddenly a figure carrying fruits passed by and the person’s elbow slammed hard on Hayley’s
back. After that, Hayley fell onto Gregory and the perpetrator vanished into Gregory’s music room.
Soon, a group of servants appeared to swarm and surround Gregory.
Nicholas’s expression instantly turned severe and Andrew was also embarrassed, thinking that there was
such a traitor working under him.
He hurriedly elaborated, “Master Nicholas, I was the one who recruited these people, and I can’t help but
feel like it was my mistake for this…”
“Okay, Andrew. Now is not the time to investigate your dereliction of duty. There should be someone

He returned to the ward and said to Tessa, “I have something to do at home. I’ll go back and deal with it.
You can stay here and if you’re tired, take a rest. Don’t keep staring. If you need anything, just call me.”
Tessa nodded, knowing that Nicholas was going back to deal with how Gregory became hurt. Then, she
replied, “You can leave Gregory to me. Hurry up and go back.”
Back at Dynasty Gardens, the servant was still stunned when she was caught. “What are you doing?
Why did you arrest me?”
The rest of the servants looked at her curiously and whispered, “Did Master Nicholas arrest her because
the person who hurt Young Master Gregory was not Miss Stone, but in fact someone else?”
When she heard this, the servant’s eyes widened. “You are talking nonsense and
slandering. You all saw it at the time. It was Miss Stone who pushed the young master! If you say that I’m
the one who hurt the young master, then you must show evidence!”
“Evidence?” A cold voice entered the villa.
“Master Nicholas!” The bodyguard at the door saw him coming and hurriedly bowed to greet him.
Nicholas strode into the villa and glanced at the servant with icy eyes. The pressure around him dropped
sharply while the whispers disappeared completely.
The servant who was kneeling on the floor did not dare to struggle any more. For the first time, she felt
how terrifying Nicholas was when he was angry.
He said coldly, “Andrew.”
Andrew stepped forward and played the surveillance video in front of the servant, after which her face
instantly paled.
She was a newcomer and had only been working in the villa for less than half a month. She knew that
there were several obvious surveillance cameras in the villa, but didn’t know that there were also some
hidden ones.
Immediately, she hurriedly begged for mercy, “Master Nicholas, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to. I didn’t mean
to bump into Miss Stone. I don’t know what happened.”
Kieran couldn’t stand watching her, so he spoke a step ahead of his brother, “You didn’t know? Hey, look
at the surveillance video carefully. The corridor is so wide, and yet you wanted to squeeze in that
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdirection? Is my brother’s house corridor not wide enough for you?”
The servant shook her head vigorously. “It’s really not me! I just, just,”
“Just what?” Nicholas queried coldly.
Originally, he gave people a strong sense of oppression, but now that he was condescending, it made
people fear that death was on the way.
In front of him, the servant did not dare to lie at all and hurriedly said, “Someone asked me to do this.”
“Who is it? What benefits did they promise you?” Kieran stepped forward and narrowed his eyes slightly
at her.
The servant stammered, “I-I don’t know her name. I-It happened this morning. She stopped me and gave
me 20,000, saying that I only need to frame Miss Stone, so…”
“So, for the mere 20,000, you hurt Gregory and framed Hayley?” an angry Kieran queried.
He was exasperated that for the sake of 20,000, she could hurt a child’s life.
The servant said again, “No, it’s more than 20,000. She said that after the matter is completed, she will
give me 100,000 more.”
