My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 2799

At this time, Peter was reminded of Nash once again. It broke his heart even more.

Nash, a Drakonian, had some form of trust in him, but his so-called relatives found no reason to believe in him at all.

The protection his family talked about was to prevent Peter from experiencing anything related to the past.

However, the more they tried to keep Peter away, the angrier he became. Peter was obviously capable, but why did no one believe in him?

Nakasha was finally moved as she looked at the indignant Peter. She knew that no matter how many words she said, it would just rub salt into his wounds.

What Peter wanted was the truth—the truth that these people now stood for.

Nakasha told him about Banjo's past with Dusvad.

Banjo was the youngest son, and there was about a 20-year age gap between him and Dusvad. That was the reason Dusvad chose to spare Banjo’s life when he finally ascended the throne.

However, Amaya refused to give up. She believed that she could save the people of Sand Country, so she contacted Banjo.

At the time, Banjo was working in the National Medical Department. Amaya contacted him in hopes that she could rely on the National Medical Department to conduct a new round of experiments.

Banjo was deeply moved when he saw how exhausted Amaya looked. He tried to dissuade Amaya several times, hoping that she would give birth to the child first and nurse herself back to health before conducting further experiments.

However, Amaya objected and said, "Millions of people are suffering now. Since I can save them, I'll use my last bit of strength. Please, Banjo, you must help me! All this is for the people of Sand Country!"

Banjo could not look into Amaya’s eyes because he knew that he simply could not refuse her request.
