Nick kept his eyes focused on Edward, watching what he might be thinking. He was sizing up his reaction, wondering if he was taking a bite of his bait.
"I heard Ethan and Alex's businesses are also undergoing the same situation. Maybe whoever took the two was the same people trying to destroy us all." Nick said, suddenly finding his own statement interesting.
He was definitely guilty of framing Edward, but not everything he was accusing him of was his doing. Someone was definitely playing them against each other.
"Are you saying that someone else was behind this?" Edward commented but remained doubtful that he was telling him the truth.
Nick could have concocted this idea, planting it on his mind to win his trust back. In the end, he would find himself stabbed in the back again.
"Of course, that makes perfect sense." That statement was genuine.
