100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Chapter 809 Has Soft Spot for His Young Master

Day Eighty-Five…

Butler Li remained silent.

"We've trusted you. Of all the people, I didn't expect that the traitor was you. Why did you do this? How much did they pay you?" Nathan questioned Butler Li.

Butler Li just lowered his gaze. "Young Master, no one can buy my loyalty."

Nathan clenched his fists upon hearing that.

"Then why? Why did you betray us?"

Butler Li looked away, keeping his mouth shut. For the past years, Butler Li has become so attached to Nathan. It was not part of his plan. But it just happened.

That's why he couldn't face him. He could see the pain of betrayal in Nathan's eyes. He knew Nathan was utterly disappointed with him.

"SPEAK UP!" Nathan yelled through gritted teeth. He was terribly irritated since Butler Li remained quiet, not even defending himself.

"Are you being threatened? Did they blackmail you as well? For goodness' sake, tell me the truth!" Nathan held Butler Li's shoulder, shaking his body.

"We are one family here. If they threaten you, I can always help you!"

"No. No one threatened me," Butler Li plainly responded.

Nathan and Axel exchanged glances with one another. They didn't know whether he was telling the truth or not. If no one paid him and no one threatened him then what was his motive for betraying Nathan and Old Man Xu?

"Why did you steal the DNA samples? What are you hiding about my son's biological mother? Do you know her? Is it Helena or Monica?" Nathan bombarded him with so many questions. However, Butler Li remained tight-lipped.

"Butler Li, it is best for you to talk and reveal what you know. If you keep doing this, then we will have no choice but to use force just to get an answer from you." Axel chimed in. He reminded Butler Li that they would resort to torturing him.

But Axel's threat didn't faze him at all. He was willing to receive punishment for betraying Nathan. A little torture might help ease his guilt for deceiving the Sparks Family for so many years.

"I do understand. But I'm sorry. I don't want to talk." Butler Li stubbornly said.

Nathan rubbed the space in between his brows, taking a deep sigh. Since Butler Li didn't want to cooperate then he had no choice.

"Bring him to the headquarters. Do the questioning there." Nathan ordered Axel, turning around. He was still having a hard time accepting the fact that Butler Li had betrayed the Sparks Family.

'Copy, Boss." Axel responded.

He approached Butler Li, removing the bind on his feet. He pulled him up while Nathan stepped out of the storage room without looking back. Butler Li and Axel were following him from behind.

As Axel and the other guards escorted Butler Li toward the car, a tiny voice made them stop in their tracks.

"Uncle Axel! Dad! What is the meaning of this? Where are you bringing Butler Li? Why did you handcuff his hands?" Ethan asked in confusion.

He even ran toward Butler Li, shielding him against the bodyguards.

'Young master…" Butler Li didn't know what to feel at that moment. He didn't want Ethan to witness this.

"Ethan, stay away from him. Come to me," Nathan extended his right hand to Ethan.

"No! I will not leave him. Why are you doing this, Dad? What did he do wrong?" Ethan questioned them, darting his gaze back and forth between Axel and Nathan.

He even spread his arms as if he didn't want the guards to hold Butler Li.

There was a hint of sadness in Butler Li's eyes as he stared at the innocent child who was trying to protect him.

'Don't do this, Ethan. I've wronged you so I deserve this.' Butler Li pursed his lips, trying to hold back his tears. He was afraid to find out how Ethan would react if he learned the truth.

"Son, I'll count one to five. Don't let me repeat myself," Nathan sternly said.

"No. I need some answers." Ethan shook his head vehemently. "I can't leave, Uncle Li. What are you planning to do with him?"

Nathan heaved a deep sigh, looking at his stubborn son helplessly.

'You will be heartbroken if you learn the truth.' Nathan thought to himself.

"Just go back inside the house, Ethan. You must listen to me." Natha ordered him.

Since Axel and Nathan refused to disclose information to Ethan, the young boy gazed up, looking at Butler Li's eyes.

"Uncle Li, please tell me. Why are they bullying you?"

Butler Li's heart clenched as he heard Ethan's question. How could he tell him that he was a traitor? This young boy also trusted him a lot.

"Uncle Li, please," Ethan begged, tugging Butler Li's hands. "I have the right to know!" He added.

Slamming his eyes shut, Butler Li heaved a sigh of defeat. "Young master… I'm a traitor."

Ethan's eyes widened in shock, his mouth hung open. He shook his head. It took him a few seconds before his mind absorbed his words.

"No. You promised me! You said you would never betray us." Ethan started to sob.

Butler Li looked away. He couldn't bear to see Ethan crying because of him.

"Dad! Tell me… what did Uncle Li do wrong? I don't believe he is a traitor." Ethan was in denial. He still defended Butler Li. "He is a good man! He took care of me, you, and Grandpa. He served us for a very long time. This might be a misunderstanding!"

Butler Li crouched down to hug Ethan. "I'm sorry, young master. I lied. I deceived you. You, your Dad, and your grandpa." Butler Li admitted.

"I'm your Uncle Vincent's spy. And Vincent is my nephew. His mother is my elder sister." Butler Li finally revealed his identity.

Nathan and Axel were both surprised. Just a while ago, Butler Li was so determined to keep his mouth shut. But now, in front of Ethan, he disclosed the main reason for his betrayal– he was Vincent's Uncle!

'So Ethan is the key to making him talk. This only means… he truly cares about my son.' Nathan thought to himself.

"Axel, remove his handcuffs. Escort him back to the mansion." Nathan changed his mind. He would try his luck. Maybe his son would get honest answers from Butler Li. He needed Ethan's help to convince Butler Li to confess everything. After all, Butler Li also had a soft spot for Ethan.
