Chapter 15


    “Don’t kill him so quickly, Mr. Lewis. You’ve got to torture him slowly!” Leyton cried out when he saw


    that Tommy had arrived. “Are you teaching me what to do?” Tommy’s brows knitted together, and he


    cut his gaze at the young man. With that mere nce, Leyton was so terrified that he almost peed his


    pants. He hastily backed away while eximing, “No, no! Of course not…” “How dare you speak to Mr.


    Lewis in such a manner, you b*stard?”


    Yoel stepped forward and pped him hard across the face. Then, he shed Tommy an apologetic


    smile and murmured, “My son didn’t know any better, so please don’t take offense at him, Mr. Lewis!”


    “Let me tell you something, Yoel Scott. Indeed, I owe the Scott family a favor. However, I’m not a


    servant of your family! I hope you understand that!” Tommy warned in an icy voice. “Yes, of course, I


    understand that!


    You’re an esteemed guest of the Scott family, Mr. Lewis! How could you possibly be a servant?” Yoel


    was frightened to the point that he broke out in a cold sweat. He shot his son a re. Leyton had been


    hurting from his broken arm in the first ce, so he presently hung his head low without daring to utter


    a single word after the p. Satisfied with Yoel’s attitude, Tommy shifted his gaze back to Jared. “Mr.


    Lewis, it was only a moment of rashness on Mr. Chance’s part.


    The bride was his girlfriend, but Leyton stole her, so he was a tad resentful,” William exined with a


    cheery smile as he hurriedly moved forward. “Oh, I see!” Tommy nodded, finally understanding why the


    seemingly ordinary man dared to kick up a fuss at the Scott family’s wedding. Ah, so it turns out that his


    girlfriend was stolen from him! But in the next moment, something urred to him. He abruptly froze


    and asked William, “What did you just call him?”


    He’s the richest man in Horington, so why would he address a young man in his early twenties


    as “Mr.?” There must be a reason behind it! “Mr. Chance!” William wore a baffled expression, but he


    soon realized what the man meant. Thus, he exined, “Mr. Chance saved my life, so I’m going to


    protect him today no matter what!” It was only then that Tommy fully understood the entire matter. In


    actual fact, this was just a trivial matter, but it became a huge deal when the Sullivan family and Scott


    family started butting heads.


    And that’s why the Scott family called me here! “Look at what a massivemotion you two created


    out of this trifling matter! You’re both influential figures in Horington, so you should have a care for your


    image! Since this kid made a scene during the wedding and injured the heir of the Scott family, he can’t


    be allowed off the hook easily. However, his offense doesn’t warrant the death penalty. Just cut off one


    of his arms and have him apologize publicly for his mistake.”


    Even as he chastised both William and Yoel, neither of them dared utter a single word of protest. In


    attaining his position as the underground king of Horington, Tommy didn’t just rely on his fists but also


    his brains. He could easily make Jared disappear from the face of this world for this trivial matter, but


    that would offend the Sullivan family in the process. While he wasn’t afraid of them, it wasn’t worth


    doing so after weighing the pros and cons.


    Meanwhile, the Scott family merely wanted to keep their pride intact, so it would appease them to have


    the man sever his arm and apologize publicly. Leyton would also be able to vent his anger. With that,


    the Scott family gets to retain their dignity, and I don’t offend the Sullivan family either. It’s a win-win


    situation for me! “What do you two think about my suggestion?” he questioned when he noticed that


    both William and Yoel were keeping mum.


    He didn’t bother asking the person in question, Jared, because the man was just a chess piece in his


    eyes. As such, Jared had to do whatever was demanded of him. “Whatever you say, Mr. Lewis.”


    Neither William nor Yoel dared to have any objections. “Isn’t this simple? Why must you make a huge


    fanfare out of things?


    It’s as though it’s a matter of grave importance!” Tommy chuckled before turning his gaze on Jared.


    “Kid, I’ll let you off if you now cut off your arm and apologize after having caused trouble during the


    wedding and injuring someone’s son! Otherwise, I’m afraid that you won’t be able to leave this ce


    alive!”


    Jared nced at Leyton, who was looking all smug, waiting for him to sever his arm and go over to


    apologize to him. “They don’t deserve it,” he murmured cidly.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.
