Chapter 6 - The Nurse's Interrogation

At midnight, inside the mansion's soundproofed basement study, Roman sat behind a heavy steel desk. Marcus stood at his right side, holding a leather folder, entirely unaware that his doom was already sealed.

The door burst open, and two burly guards dragged in Nurse Victoria—the lead private nurse who had overseen Ethan's care for two years. She was sobbing hysterically, her white medical scrubs wrinkled and stained.

"Mr. Hale! Please! I don't know why your men pulled me out of my car!" Victoria screamed, her voice echoing off the concrete walls.

Roman casually tossed a paper lab report onto the desk. "This is the chemical composition of my brother's nightly IV drip. Do you want to tell me why you've been feeding him military-grade paralytics, or should I let my men handle the questioning?"

Victoria’s eyes darted frantically toward Marcus, a subtle, desperate glance that didn't escape Roman’s sharp gaze.
