Chapter 6:

Justin embraced Katherine like a princess because it seemed she had no strength left to continue walking.

Katherine, allowing Justin to hold her, leaned her head on his shoulder with a gentle sigh. They descended together.

In the lobby on the lower floor, the mangled body of the wealthy man Justin had pushed from the upper floor lay there, covered in blood and shattered.

His current appearance was extremely gruesome, lying in a pool of blood, his body distorted with wounds everywhere.

Adam’s face was pale, his eyes still wide open.

Adam’s corpse stirred up a commotion among the onlookers. The crowd around his body grew larger.

Some expressed curiosity, others fear, and some took out their phones to take pictures, record videos, or livestream.

“Is that Adam, the sole heir of the Walt family?”

Whispers began as people recognized the identity of the corpse.

Though his current appearance seemed terrifying, it hadn’t reached the point of complete disfigurement.

Some approached to get a closer look, staring into the wide-open, lifeless eyes.

“Yes, it’s him.”

“The untouchable guy, right? Who would have thought he’d end up like this?”

“Indeed, he wielded so much power, with the Walt family backing him up. His father was famous for covering up for him. I wonder how many people he oppressed in this city.”

“I thought even God couldn’t punish him.”

“That’s right. Well-deserved.”

“...”

As the crowd murmured and some even applauded, the loud noise of a car engine suddenly drew the attention.

A Range Rover SVAutobiography appeared, elegantly parking in front of the hotel.

Three men in black suits, with stern faces and swift movements, stepped out.

Subsequently, the fourth door opened, a path was cleared, and a middle-aged man descended.

He was dignified, exuding an air of upper-class charisma. Everyone quickly realized that he was Carlisle Walt, the chairman of the Walt conglomerate, and also the father who always shielded Adam, a sky-high figure.

The crowd immediately fell silent, and those who were applauding revealed fear.

On the other hand, Carlisle Walt, along with his bodyguards, quickly approached the corpse. Seeing his son in that state, he couldn’t help but let out a cry.

“Adam!”

“My son, how could you end up like this!”

The city’s information network was indeed dense, or more precisely, the Walt family’s information network was sharp.

But in the end, he arrived a step too late, unable to save his son.

Trembling, Carlisle Walt couldn’t believe the truth.

He wanted to touch his son but hesitated, as if afraid of causing further harm to any part of Adam’s body, though the current state of Adam’s corpse already had no intact parts.

“My son... my beloved son...”

It’s a rare sight to see a powerful man like Mr. Carlisle Walt shedding tears.

But at this moment, besides curious glances, no one dared to take photos or videos, as they knew the consequences would be severe.

The radar-like gazes of the bodyguards scanned the surroundings, ready to detect any suspicious movements.

Everyone was well aware of Mr. Carlisle Walt’s ruthlessness.

“Who handles this? I will crush them like potato peels. Adam, rest assured, I will avenge you.”

Mr. Carlisle Walt roared, causing others to worry about the “hero” who had just punished the villain.

“Call Steven, hurry, call Steven.”

Mr. Carlisle Walt commanded his subordinates. One bodyguard immediately dialed Steven’s number and handed the phone to him.

“Yes, Chairman.”

Mr. Carlisle Walt listened to the phone with a furious and resentful mood. When he heard Steven’s voice, he exploded in anger:

“Steven, what have you done? Why didn’t you protect the young master? Who handles what happened to Adam!”

Mr. Carlisle Walt’s tone seemed as if he wanted to devour Steven alive. Steven cried bitterly.

At this moment, Mr. Carlisle Walt’s eyes froze when he saw Steven rushing out of the hotel with a bleeding nose and battered appearance.

“Chairman!”

He rushed to Mr. Carlisle Walt, falling to his knees.

His current state was also extremely pitiful, with almost no intact parts of his clothing.

“Chairman... huhuhuhu.” Steven realized that his life was in danger this time.

“Dreadful!”

Mr. Carlisle Walt grabbed Steven by the collar and pulled him up, his eyes flashing with anger.

“Why did I raise you? I raised you to protect my son. How dare you live when my son is lying here?! Speak! Who handles this!”

Steven trembled, his teeth clashing together so hard that he couldn’t utter a word.

“That... it’s a man. They... they are still inside the hotel, they are still inside the hotel, they are still inside the hotel.”

Steven didn’t know how to reveal Justin’s identity. Because Adam had made enemies with many people, and Steven himself didn’t know who this person was.

But suddenly, thinking of something crucial, Steven repeated it three times smoothly.

After hearing this, Mr. Carlisle Walt didn’t hesitate to throw Steven to the ground. Then, he ordered his subordinates:

“Quickly, surround the hotel. Don’t let anyone escape, not even an ant.”

“Yes.”

At that moment, Steven’s gaze suddenly shifted towards the hotel, and he saw Justin carrying Katherine, with Julie by his side, coming out.

Steven’s eyes widened, especially when he saw Caesar and the bodyguards behind.

The horror seemed to make Steven want to wet his pants. He pointed his trembling finger at Justin and said:

“That... that’s him. That’s the one who killed the young master!”

Hearing Steven’s words, Mr. Carlisle Walt followed the pointing finger and looked directly at Justin’s face.

The rage and fury made Mr. Carlisle Walt want to kill Justin immediately.

The murderer of his son was right in front of him, wearing a calm expression, causing Mr. Carlisle Walt to have no thoughts other than revenge.

However, at this moment, he cast his eyes over the surrounding crowd.

Mr. Carlisle Walt still maintained composure in front of the public; if he directly killed Justin here, it wouldn’t be wise.

He knew that.

What he wanted more than anything was not just the death of the one who killed his son, but to capture Justin and his loved ones, then torture them slowly, letting them experience a living hell.

Mr. Carlisle Walt tilted his head, raised his chin, and ordered his bodyguards to surround Justin.

Justin, at this moment, suddenly found his path blocked. His expression immediately froze, and he frowned, looking towards Adam’s corpse.

But what he was searching for was the owner of these people.

Justin quickly recognized the man as Adam’s father because his face resembled the deceased to a great extent.

Justin nodded, knowing that trouble was imminent.

Mr. Carlisle Walt also approached Justin at this time.

“Hello, young man, with courage. Do you plan to leave just like this?”

Mr. Carlisle Walt laughed coldly, a smile with a touch of coldness and malice from hell.

“And you, are you here to claim your son’s body? It’s best to leave quickly; the longer you stay, the harder it will be to watch.”

Seeing Justin still composed and even making sarcastic remarks, Mr. Carlisle Walt seemed to go mad, gritting his teeth.

“You wretched fellow, do you know whom you’ve messed with? Even if God himself descends, he won’t be able to save you. You killed my son, and I will make you pay with your blood!”

Justin looked calmly into Mr. Carlisle Walt’s eyes without a hint of fear.

Meanwhile, Katherine, with her hand placed on Justin’s chest, clenched tightly, full of fear and concern.

Although she couldn’t see anything through the conversation, she guessed Justin had killed Adam, and the person blocking their way was Adam’s father.

“Now, be smart and follow me. If you don’t want to cause a commotion here, and I will publicly disgrace you!”

Mr. Carlisle Walt laughed, a smile full of murderous intent. Meanwhile, Justin raised an eyebrow, signaling his readiness to fight, looking towards Caesar.

At that moment, the sound of police sirens suddenly echoed.

Well, Justin thought, given the commotion and events happening here, involving the police was not surprising.

Three or four police cars stopped in front of them, and a tall man with blond hair, leading the group, got out.

“Durango, you came just in time.”

Seeing the police officer, Mr. Carlisle Walt immediately put on a “welcome” expression.

“Chairman, I heard that something terrible has happened to you.”

“Yes, that’s right.” Mr. Carlisle Walt burst into tears, his tone full of grief.

“Police Chief Durango, you must seek justice for my son. He was brutally and unjustly killed by that wretched person. While he did nothing wrong. He died unfairly. You know, my son, Adam, is an obedient child.”

“Alright, alright, I understand. Chairman, please bear the pain.”

At this moment, Mr. Carlisle Walt glanced sideways, and a sinister and cruel look flashed through his red, cold eyes. He leaned in and whispered to Durango:

“If you make me satisfied, I’ll promote your son to be my vice president.”

After speaking, he acted as if nothing had happened and continued to cry.

Police Chief Durango, upon hearing this, immediately gave a signal, then waved his hand to his subordinates:

“Quickly arrest the suspect for me!”

A group of police officers surrounded Justin, pointing their guns at him and the others.

“If you are sensible, put your hands together to be tied; the punishment will be lenient. But if you resist, you know the consequences!”

Callis addressed Justin.

Facing the pointed guns, Caesar felt a sense of contempt but moved forward to stand in front of his leader, ready to fight. However, Justin pulled Caesar back.

“Put your guns down, Caesar.”

Caesar was surprised.

“My lord.”

“It’s just a small matter. More importantly, I don’t want the Dawn Council to become a terrorist organization in our homeland.”

Justin whispered to Caesar. Understanding, Caesar stepped back.

Justin looked at Callis, and the other police officers, finding it amusing. But at this moment, he gently released Catherine’s hand.

This action signaled to her and everyone else what he was about to do.

“Justin...” Catherine didn’t want him to leave.

“Don’t worry; I’ll be back soon.”

“Really? You’ll come back soon, won’t you, Daddy?”

Julie, in her innocent belief in his words, grabbed his shirt and asked with sparkling, wide eyes.

“That’s right.” He ruffled her hair.

However, Catherine was not as optimistic.

She felt anxious and guilty, especially since Justin had killed Adam to save her. His presence in this situation was because of her.

“Justin, I’m sorry...”

Catherine trembled.

He knew what she was contemplating at this moment.

He cupped her face and said, “Because you’re my wife!”

Catherine was moved, tears streaming down her face.

Seeing Justin getting into the police car, Mr. Carlisle Walt smirked with resentment and muttered, “Get lost!”
