Victor, Jada, and Quintus looked at the scene in front of them in a daze. Their faces were already ashen from fright."Didn't you say that you hired several elites? Why are they so useless?" Jada did not understand those things and blamed Victor angrily."They looked really strong to me! I didn't expect them to be faking their abilities." Victor did not understand a single thing about attainment and whatnot, hence his similarly confused expression. He paid a lot of money to hire those men, but they ended up getting knocked down so quickly that they failed to even land a blow on Severin! It was thoroughly humiliating."Sir, we didn't fake our abilities. We may be strong, but he's far too strong!" one of the elites said as he collapsed on the ground."Hehe, it's your turn now!" Severin cracked his knuckles. The three of them unconsciously took a step back as soon as they heard that."D-d-d-don't you dare come over, Severin! I'll start moaning if you do!" Jada immediately threatened.
"You..." Quintus felt the burning pain on his face, and his eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Severin. There was blood dripping from the corners of his lips too.As soon as Victor saw what was going on, he immediately pulled Quintus to one side and advised, "I don't think you should confront him head-on like that. He's not afraid of anyone, and you stand to lose big time if he cuts off your tongue!" After saying that, he placed his lips close to Quintus's ear and reminded softly, "Let's give in for now. After all, this is Brookbourn, and you'll have plenty of chances to get back at him in the future if you can get out of this with your life intact!""But why should I kneel to him? I'll never do that, especially not to someone like him!" Quintus continued to stare viciously at Severin.Victor thought for a moment. "He's the son of the Novaks, Severin. How about you spare him the act of kneeling and I'll give you four hundred and fifty thousand in exchange.""Do you think this is
"Take it easy, Quintus. He's offended us before, and he's even pissed off the son of one of Brookbourn's second-tier families! His days are numbered from the beginning, and we even hired a very skilled assassin to end his life. There's no point for you to get yourself worked out about someone who already has one foot in the grave!" Jada immediately persuaded Quintus."You hired an assassin?" Quintus seemed to disagree with their decision. "Don't you think you're going too easy on him to kill him like that? I want to see him die by my hand for humiliating me like that!"Victor stepped forward immediately and smiled awkwardly as he said, "I'm sorry that my bodyguards were incompetent. I never thought that he'd be no match for them even when they outnumbered him. I wonder what level grandmaster is he."At that moment, Quintus's two bodyguards had already got up from the ground, but both of them were clutching their chests in pain as they got up.One of them said, "He must be a profoun
"Okay, we promise we'll bring bodyguards with us when we go out in the future."Maurice could only laugh sheepishly. He looked at Severin's angry expression and knew that he only did that because he cared about them."The Novaks might be stronger than they look, Severin. Aren't you afraid of them at all? I'm worried they might try to cause trouble after you demanded three hundred thousand from them and told Quintus to kneel before us!" Judith was still a little worried when she thought about it and felt uneasy throughout the journey home."Don't worry about the Novaks, Mom. We don't have to be afraid of them at all. Trust me!" Severin smiled. "You do realize that it's not just the Longhorns that have a good relationship with us. Even Larry from Draco Hall calls me his sworn brother! Don't worry, okay!"Maurice and Judith breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Severin's reassurance."Sir, a bald man just showed up outside the villa with five people with him," Lillie ran in all of
Janvar knew what his pig-brained comrade was thinking and could not help but smile and say, "You have a point. It would be such a pity to kill them, and it just so happens that there are six of them. We can have one each then, haha! I call dibs on the one with the biggest t*ts!""Disgusting!" Wendy was so incensed by what she heard that she clenched her fists and glared viciously at the six degenerate men in front of her."Let us take them on, master! It's been a while since we've gotten some exercise, and they're right when they say that we can go against them one each!" Kiera said to Severin."Can we kill them, master? Just looking at them makes me sick!" Abigail said angrily.Their responses elicited a smile from Severin as he said, "Sure. I'll leave them to you then! Make sure to kill them!" Severin then looked at the male bodyguards and instructed them, "The girls will deal with them in a bit, and all you have to do is dispose of the corpse!""Understood!" The male bodyguards
"Look! Do you see those bodyguards carrying out several bodies and throwing them in the boot of the car? Are they going to dispose of those bodies?" Quintus was startled to see what was happening.Jada then immediately pulled the car aside and looked at them from a distance. When she saw that it was exactly as Quintus described, she could not help remarking, "Someone probably went to cause trouble at Severin's place again but got killed in the end. He sure has made a lot of enemies!""A lot? How many?" Quintus then remarked with a grin, "I don't care how many enemies he's made, but he's going to get himself killed for offending me!"Jada then said, "Aside from us, he offended Easton Lough and Edward Horsfield too. Oh, and his wife, Diane, is very beautiful too. Some of the rich young men call her the most beautiful woman in Brookbourn, and Rufus Chavez once tried plotting against them because he wanted to kill Severin and make Diane his!"Quintus could not help but feel a little mo
Severin picked up the phone, looked at the caller ID, and saw that Sheila was the one calling him. He could not help but frown because she was an unusually difficult girl to deal with. Unfortunately, ignoring her call would be unwise because she was the daughter of Brookbourn Mansion's leader.After putting some more thought into it, Severin accepted the call with some reluctance. "Hello, Sheila. Is something the matter?" he asked as soon as the call connected."My handsome Severin! Please come as soon as you can! My dad just vomited blood this afternoon, and now he's unconscious on the bed! I don't know what to do right now!" Sheila's voice sounded helpless over the phone and she was already choking up.Severin frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "But, when I went there this morning, your father kicked me out and accused me of being a quack with no medical ethics. If I'm honest, I have no intention of treating people who make such remarks about my ability!"Sheila w
"Let's head on in then!" Severin felt a headache coming on when he looked at the lovestruck little girl in front of him, so he walked briskly into the house and left Sheila following right behind him.Before long, they arrived at the door of Zachariah's room, but Severin stopped outside the door just as they were about to enter. He motioned for Sheila to stop and keep quiet too.There was a discussion going on inside the room, and the people inside comprised the Ballards' relatives who lived at Zachariah's home.One of the men could not help but say, "Do you think the head of our family is going to die like this? He hasn't woken up yet, and judging from his complexion, his life is probably in grave danger!""Sheila went downstairs to pick Severin up, and I wonder if that guy is even able to cure his illness. This is just too strange. He was fine earlier this morning, but then he vomited blood and passed out all of a sudden!" a woman said.The man sighed. "I don't know what's going
