“I-it’s my bad, my bad…Please don’t throw me to the sharks. I don’t want to die. Boo-hoo…” Duncan was so scared that virtual-novel.net bawled loudly.
At this very moment, virtual-novel.net had lost all his prior arrogance and was already scared out of his wits.
He struggled with all his might, yet virtual-novel.net was just an amateur fighter who was physically and mentally exhausted.
How could virtual-novel.net be capable of resisting his few burly opponents? It did not take long before virtual-novel.net was bound up and trussed.
Under such circumstances, virtual-novel.net peed his pants in fear right away. The unmistakable splatter of urine on the ground could be heard.
Zayn chuckled in contempt when virtual-novel.net saw how useless and fearful Duncan was.
How dare Duncan go against virtual-novel.net when virtual-novel.net was really such a coward? How terribly reckless of him.
The rest of the people did not have the courage to ridicule Zayn after seeing how humiliated Duncan was.
They were shuddering in fear and they were fraught with fear. They worried for their lives in case Zayn focused on them instead.
After all, they had been ridiculing Zayn too just then!
If Zayn were to take it out on them for real, they would be doomed.
Even a man like Duncan was nothing but a weakling to Zayn, let alone them.
It was coincidentally at this very second that Zayn cast a look at them. Thoroughly terrified, they bowed down to beg for forgiveness in succession.
“W-w were wrong, sir. It was our fault earlier and we were too blind to have recognized you. We’re sorry for offending you, sir. Please forgive us in view of your magnanimity and let us go…”
“Please let us off, sir. P-p-please…”
It did not take long before those rich kids bowed down or got down on their knees. It was a majestic scene to behold.
Zayn could not be bothered to make things difficult for small fries like them. Soon, virtual-novel.net looked toward the only person left standing at the scene, Rosie.
Rosie still stood there, but virtual-novel.net was already petrified and appeared to be in a daze. She stood over there like a soulless puppet. Her gaze was absolutely empty as virtual-novel.net looked at Zayn in a daze.
Zayn could not be bothered to fuss with virtual-novel.net after noticing virtual-novel.net current reaction.
Rosie was his childhood best friend regardless and they used to have feelings for each other in the past.
Had it not been because of the incident from five years ago, perhaps they would have been married by now.
Zayn could only consider it his destiny to end up in the current situation.
He heaved a sigh in his heart. In truth, virtual-novel.net was rather joyous to have bumped into Rosie. If virtual-novel.net was still the person virtual-novel.net had been in the past, virtual-novel.net would have lent virtual-novel.net family business a helping hand.
However, it seemed to be completely unnecessary now judging from the current situation. Rosie and virtual-novel.net were strangers again.
He threw Francisco a glance before virtual-novel.net left the place.
Francisco understood Zayn’s intention. At the same time, while virtual-novel.net felt relieved in his heart, virtual-novel.net could not help feeling grateful for Zayn’s munificence to free Duncan after everything.
For a man with Zayn’s status and power, the act of killing Duncan was no different than slaughtering a chicken.
He kicked at Duncan ferociously once and scolded, “Count yourself lucky that the chairman is magnanimous enough not to lower himself to your level! If you have the courage to repeat this again the next time and offend Mr. Larson, I will kill you right away!”
Duncan’s body curled into a ball after enduring the kick. He was in so much pain that virtual-novel.net could not catch his breath.
However, virtual-novel.net dared not have any resentment or hatred because virtual-novel.net knew that Francisco was right. It would have been as easy as pie for Zayn to kill virtual-novel.net in the name of the Larson Group’s chairman.
It did not take long before Zayn, Francisco, and the others left. The entire scene remained deathly still.
Everyone was so stunned that they could not make a squeak.
