"Chance doesn't come twice; today, it's hands and fingers; tomorrow, it's neck and your heart, I might ask for," Killian said expressionlessly.
"Thank you, young master. We pledge our submission and loyalty to you at the cost of our lives," they replied.
"Good. I accept your pledge. Now you may leave," Killian responded coldly.
"Thank you, young master," they said in unison as they pressed their foreheads to the floor.
Five minutes later, they resolved the whole mess. There were no more blood stains, broken table legs, and food spilt on the floor; everything had been cleaned up by Killian's men, assisted by Benjamin's men, who were still physically strong.
The hotel employees and the manager on duty heard the chaos in the party room. But they did not dare to come because of Irene and her strong people, the hotel's secretary and the influential person.
"What's going on? Why are Mr Spencer's confidants coming to this hotel? Is it because they
"You can't just kick us out of our own home. We've lived in this house for a long time," Granny Smith said with emotion."Your husband has borrowed money from our bank and hasn't repaid the remaining loan. The collateral is this house. Please read the agreement," the officer replied again."You're the devil; if we get out of this house, where will we live?" Emma said matter-of-factly. She didn't know the truth. But Granny Smith was aware of the bank loan issue, and that was long ago."That's none of our business. All we know is that you have to get out. This house is in foreclosure, and it doesn't belong to you anymore," the foreclosure officer said.The notice weakened Smith's grandmother. To her, this house was her family's last asset, but now the heartless bank had taken it from her."Why does bad luck keep befall my family? Is it because of that useless Killian?" said Granny Smith to herself.Even at that moment, she still blamed Killian when it was because of their actions which
"You guys are so heartless; there's not a shred of compassion for my mum's old body," Dylan shouted angrily. It was the first time he had spoken out in defence of his mother being pushed around like that.Hearing such a defence, instead of making the waiter feel sorry for her, the waiter became angry, using harsh, threatening, and insulting words."Get out of here! If not, I'll call the security guards to evict you all. You rascals!""Never mind, Dylan, let's go; after all, this is not a public place where just anyone can enter if they didn't order food here," Smith's grandmother said to her son Dylan. She began to relent to the increasingly heated situation.Before anything untoward happened, they decided to leave as soon as possible. Like in a film, it would rain after being kicked out of any place on the way. It also happened to the four of them. But this time, the rain was real, and this was not a film scene but a plot that happened to them.So
"Answer my question quickly! Why did you let Julietta get arrested again?" scolded Granny Smith emotionally because Robert did not answer her question.Robert was choked to silence when he heard Granny Smith's voice getting higher as she spoke to him. Then he hurriedly said, "I tried to block their attempts to capture Julietta, but my strength was far inferior to theirs."Robert paused to take a breath, then continued, "They were heavily armed while I was empty-handed, so with great difficulty, I escaped without Julietta as much as possible.""Even though I received warning shots, I kept running away from their pursuit. Fortunately, it was raining at the time, making their pursuit of me more difficult."Robert paused again to catch his breath which had started to get short, which made Granny Smith's patience run out. With her cane, she tried to hit Robert but was prevented by Dylan.Robert, who saw Granny Smith's anger towards him, hurriedly contin
"This is food and drinks that I can buy with the money you gave me earlier," Dylan said weakly."What is this food? We used never to touch this food, and we always gave it to the dog, but now you're giving it to me?" snapped Granny Smith emotionally."This is the only food I get, Mum; the money you gave me wasn't enough to buy your favourite bread," Dylan said defensively."That's it!" That was the only word that came out of Granny Smith's mouth; she didn't appreciate Dylan's efforts to get the food.Even though his struggle was full of hard work, and received cynical stares and sadistic insults from people who met him where he bought the food. But he did not want to tell his mother; he just suppressed the heartache he experienced while purchasing the food.Long story short, they were forced to eat food that was not much. Dylan bought street food after being kicked out of the supermarket.It was something they had never done before. They wer
The project manager's stern and forceful words had crushed Granny Smith's last hope. She could do nothing else except obey the project manager's advice."All right, my family and I will leave here, but please don't be hasty; there's still something we need to prepare first," said Granny Smith trying to buy time so that Robert could disguise his whereabouts.Dylan, who overheard his mother's conversation with the manager, asked her, "If we leave here, where should we live, sir?""That's none of our business. We work under orders, and I carried them out right now, so I apologise if I've caused you any trouble," The man replied politely and as gently as he could when speaking to Dylan, who was older than him."Well, we understand," he said weakly.Moments later, the five of them were back on the streets, and Robert had disguised his appearance. He took the suit he was wearing, put it on backwards, and then used it to cover his head.Five minutes later, they had gone quite far away from t
Smith's grandmother, who first realised where they were at this moment, immediately became emotional."Isn't this a funeral? Why did you bring us here, Robert?" scolded Granny Smith angrily, although a little nervous, but Robert, who was asked, just calmly calmed down.The man replied, "This is a safe place for us to sleep tonight, Gran. I'm sure we won't be chased away by anyone. "Granny Smith and the others didn't respond to Robert's words; instead, they daydreamed and stood there dumbfounded and hesitant until they heard a slightly louder voice in their ears."Why are you standing around? Let's go into that building; there's electricity in it; come on!" Robert said firmly, making them wake up from their trance.Hesitantly, they forced themselves to enter the building Robert was referring mentioned. After Robert opened the door, they were surprised to see that inside the building, there were many coffins piled up there.Christine and Emma, scared humans, shivered with fear and trie
"If you're not a beggar, then who are you? Why are you messing up your hair like crazy?""Don't talk carelessly. I'm not a beggar; I intend to sit here and release my frustration on someone, you know!""To me, it's the same thing, your clothes are nice, and it looks like you've been to a party. Did your partner cheat on you, and you ran away from him or...?""Or what, don't just talk!" snapped Julietta angrily.The person who was yelled at recoiled in fear; she did not expect her words to ignite the emotions of the other person.On the other hand, Julietta was angry when she was called a beggar, even though she only intended to sit on a bench near the park to unwind. Although, to be honest, her stomach was starving, she still did not want to beg to get food.On the other hand, the couple's eldest daughter was cheeky. At a far adrift age, her attitude towards her elders was very disrespectful.It wasn't her fault either; she and her fa
"You have a heart, Killian. Why don't you recognise me anymore? I'm your wife, Julietta," she said irritably."Hey, rascal! Why are you still there? Get out of here. Hus! Hus!" the restaurant manager said arrogantly."Security guard! Why are you guys doing nothing? Hurry up and get that crazy woman out of here; she's a nuisance," the restaurant manager said.Two security guards came hurriedly, stepping towards Julietta. The man grabbed her arms, dragged her across the street, and pushed her to the side of the fence."Don't go back, or I'll beat you up," one of the security guards threatened."I'm unlucky today. Robert is a jerk, an irresponsible man. Watch out if I meet you later, I will claw your arrogant face," Julietta's heart was furious."Where am I going again? Where did I get kicked out? And treated like a hobo and a beggar. How insolent they all are!"Julietta paused from grumbling and held her forehead as if thinking about so
