He had known Mr. Damian for so many years. How could he not know what kind of a person Mr.
Damian was?
Mr. Damian cherished his life and was scared to die.
So when he found out that he had been poisoned and there was someone with medical expertise
before him, he would find a way to ask Elisa to stay and treat him.
Although Winslow and Mr. Damian were good friends for many years, Mr. Damian was far less
significant to Winslow when compared to Elisa.
Winslow pulled Elisa to him. "It's alright if you're not free. We're not here to serve others!"
Mr. Damian was enraged when he heard what Winslow said.
He didn't expect Winslow to say that. With Winslow's position, he thought Winslow would stand on his
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtside and help him after he explained it nicely.
But he didn't think that Winslow would be so firm and blunt.
Just as he was about to say something else, Winslow's hand fell on Elisa's shoulder, and his gaze was
concerned. "Are you tired? If so, we can go back and rest."
Winslow's intentions were clear. Even he didn't want to attend the dinner party any more.
Elisa wasn't an oblivious person. She shook her head. "I'm alright, Uncle Winslow. Go ahead."
"Brie, my stomach is feeling slightly unwell. Can you come with me to the washroom?" Elisa felt she
shouldn't stay to prevent the two from arguing.
Of course, Brie immediately obeyed Elisa's orders.
Only Winslow and Mr. Damian were left in the private room.
As Mr. Damian was about to say something, his cell phone vibrated.
It was a call from the Fawler family.
His face darkened when he heard it.
The call didn't go on for long. Mr. Damian hung up first.
After that, he apologized to Winslow politely. "I really didn't know she was your niece. I didn't do
anything to her at the time. I just wanted her to stay and treat me. After that, she became emotional. I
might have fallen on the floor because I'm weak from being poisoned, and my subordinates saw it, so
they surrounded her because they thought she did something to me."
"I admit that in that instant when my subordinates came, I wanted to take advantage of the situation to
make her compromise, but Brie appeared, so I did nothing. We've been good friends for years. Since
your niece can tell I've been poisoned, you won't watch me die, right?"
Mr. Damian had a terrible expression. He sighed after he spoke.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWinslow pursed his lips. He sneered coldly after listening to what Mr. Damian had to say. "Do you think
it's alright to ignore others' intentions and force them to stay just because you cherish your life? What if
it wasn't my niece? Would you have detained her?"
He questioned Mr. Damian bluntly.
Mr. Damian didn't justify his actions. He admitted his wrongdoing again and was polite before Winslow.
He said, "I know I'm at fault. I can apologize to Elisa, but we've been good friends for years. She knows
what to do. Don't tell me you'll look on unfeelingly and watch me die?"
The wistfulness in Mr. Damian's words was apparent.
He wouldn't have done such a thing if he had known she was Elisa Benett and was related to Winslow.
He had shot himself in the foot.
