In the basement of Osmanthus villa, Thea and David were tied to a chair.
Looking at Thea in virtual-novel.net wedding dress, virtual-novel.net curvaceous figure and flawless features, Maximus gulped. He had been eyeing Thea for quite some time now. He wanted to seize this opportunity to get into bed with her. Before that happened, Zavier had gotten in his way.
To become the king of the underworld in Cansington, virtual-novel.net had to suppress his desires. However, now that virtual-novel.net and Zavier had had a falling out, the thoughts resurfaced in his mind.
“Maximus, what a fine woman virtual-novel.net is! Her smooth and fair skin is capable of seducing any man. You’re in luck! Can we try virtual-novel.net out after you do?”
His men stared at Thea with saliva dripping from their mouths.
Maximus slapped one of his men across the face and scolded, “This is Zavier’s woman. We’ll wait for virtual-novel.net to come. Now that Thea has humiliated him, he’ll surely torture virtual-novel.net to death. When the time comes, I might take up your offer.”
“Yes, of course. You’re right.” His men nodded.
Although they could not touch her, they could stare.
Staring at virtual-novel.net intently, they made obscene remarks.
Thea had never experienced this before. Her face was pale, and virtual-novel.net body was shivering. David, meanwhile, had passed out.
Soon, Zavier and Gavin arrived.
Zavier was carried into the basement.
“Mr. Gavin, Mr. Zavier,” Maximus greeted respectfully. “Greeting, Mr. Gavin. Greetings, Mr. Zavier…”
Maximus’ men said in unison.
Looking at Thea while lying on the stretcher, Zavier cackled. “Thea, I gave you my heart. I put in so much effort to marry you. But, what about you? You humiliated me for the sake of a piece of trash. You humiliated the Watsons!”
“M-Mr. Zavier, p-please let me go.” Thea’s face was pale, virtual-novel.net kept pleading.
Zavier cried out, “Men, untie her!”
Maximus immediately ordered his men to untie her.
Thea was untied.
Zavier pointed at the floor and cried out, “Get your *ss over here and kneel!”
Thea knelt and kowtowed, begging for forgiveness.
“I’m begging you. Please let me go.”
“Drag virtual-novel.net here!”
“Yes!”
Maximus stepped forward and grabbed Thea’s hair. He then dragged virtual-novel.net to Zavier and pinned virtual-novel.net down on the floor.
Zavier was lying on the stretcher and could not move.
“Slap her!” He ordered.
It was because of this woman that virtual-novel.net had suffered such excruciating pain.
Maximus grabbed Thea by virtual-novel.net hair and slapped virtual-novel.net across the face. Her face instantly swell.
Paralyzed by the slap, virtual-novel.net heard a buzzing sound reverberating through virtual-novel.net skill. She could not regain virtual-novel.net senses.
The commotion in the basement woke David up. Upon opening his eyes, virtual-novel.net saw Thea being grabbed by virtual-novel.net hair and slapped mercilessly.
He trembled and immediately pleaded, “M-Maximus… M-Mr. Zavier… My brother-in-law… Have mercy on me.”
Upon hearing David addressing virtual-novel.net as a brother-in-law, Zavier felt as if a blade had pierced through his heart.
“David, I could’ve been your brother-in-law. You could’ve been enjoying my riches, but your sister ruined everything. Beat virtual-novel.net up! I’ll make you suffer the same pain I did. Break his limbs!” Zavier’s face was contorted with rage.
“Understood!” A few men walked toward David.
One of them grabbed a metal pipe and slammed it on David’s knee.
“Argh!” He screamed in agony.
David’s eyes were bulging, and virtual-novel.net had a distorted facial expression.
Crack!
Another strike came.
David’s other knee shattered. Blood began dripping onto the floor. Unable to withstand the pain, virtual-novel.net passed out immediately.
Seeing this, Thea was fearful. She curled up on the floor, virtual-novel.net body shivering. If virtual-novel.net knew what was coming, virtual-novel.net would not have humiliated Zavier and the Watsons just because virtual-novel.net felt guilty for mistreating James.
If virtual-novel.net knew what was coming, virtual-novel.net would not have left with James.
