Darrell wasn’t doing great.
Meanwhile, Harold got emotional and relapsed into his dazed state when Olivia was sent to the hospital.
Kenneth and Jessica wanted to take Darrell away, but Ethan’s orders were absolute for the bodyguards.
So they stopped the two of them from taking Darrell.
Darrell fainted once and was tended to by doctors on the spot. However, he was forced to kneel again.
after that. And he had remained kneeling since.
The night before, while the commotion was going on, Darrell could at least throw in some snide remarks.
But after one whole night of kneeling, he felt like he was about to drop dead.
His knees were numb, and the wound on his forehead was hastily dressed. He also couldn’t feel his lower
body anymore.
He was tired, hungry, and sleep-deprived, but he didn’t dare to fall over. He fell over once because he was
too tired and the glass shards had pricked him all over, and he was in terrible pain.
Darrell noticed Ethan slowly walking toward him. Ethan’s gaze was completely emotionless and piercing
like the icy wind.
Darrell licked his parched lips and said, “I’ve been kneeling for the entire night. What else do you want
from me?”
Ethan asked coldly, “How are you associated with Rubus?”
Darrell put on a tough act. “Who’s Rubus? I don’t know anyone by that name.”
Perhaps it was because Ethan always let him off the hook after his schemes that he hadn’t realized how scary Ethan could be. But he forgot that Olivia being in the hospital had caused Ethan to become unhinged.
As soon as Darrell said that, Ethan grabbed him by the hair and pressed his head onto the floor. It was still littered with glass shards.
Jessica had never seen something so bloody before. She covered her mouth and screamed.
Ethan slammed Darrell’s head onto the ground.
Darrell, who was already gravely injured, felt like he was about to die. His head was ringing and spinning and his eyes were seeing doubles. At that moment, he thought he saw his great-grandmother telling him
After her initial shock, Jessica quickly ran over and said, “Ethan, are you out of your mind? He’s your
brother. How can you do that to him?”
Ethan glared at her with bloodshot eyes and it caused a chill to run down her spine.
“Fuck off,” he said.
Jessica was scared to death, but she was even more afraid that Ethan might kill Darrell. So she gathered
her courage and tried to stop Ethan. She wanted to pry his hand off Darrell.
Because she had had her nails done, they were long and sharp. In her urgency, she scratched the back of
Ethan’s hand and left several bleeding red marks.
But Ethan didn’t feel the pain. He just found her screaming to be annoying and shoved her impatiently. He
wasn’t trying to hurt her, but he was too strong for her. Jessica couldn’t help but fall to the ground.
“Jessi!” Kenneth wanted to stop her from falling, but he wasn’t fast enough.
Jessica fell onto the glass shards heavily as she cried out in pain.
Kenneth looked at Jessica with a pained expression. She had glass shards all over her.
He said, “Doctor, please help her.”
“You have to save Darrell,” Jessica continued insisting.
But Ethan ignored them and picked Darrell up with one hand.
There was a wound on Darrell’s head, and the blood flowed down his face.
“I’m not a patient man. I’ll ask you one last time. How are you associated with Rubus?” he asked.
Darrell said weakly, “I really don’t know who Rubus is.”
“Alright. I’ll ask a different question then. How did you know I died in the explosion? Who gave you the information?”
Darrell fell silent again.
Ethan sneered, and the veins on the back of his hand popped. He grabbed Darrell’s head and continued slamming Darrell’s head onto the ground.
