I'll make everyone who's humiliated, bullied, and harmed me get a taste of their own medicine tenfold!I don't know what people mean when they say I'm young and reckless. All I know is that the winner takes all!
View MoreThe West City slum redevelopment project was nearing its end. The development of the other nearby properties remained in steady progress after the initial launch.Even Reginald and Jacob, who had helped Austin acquire the land needed for the project, had gained quite a lot of benefits from the project.Meanwhile, Vincent and Iris' combined efforts had also re-established their financial company.With the Redmont family's finance companies now under their belt, they quickly made a name for themselves within the industry.Vincent and Iris also became celebrities of sorts within the finance industry.Everything in life was slowly but surely moving onto greener pastures.This very morning, Austin held a meeting with the company's middle management and made a decision on Dominion Properties' future directives.As he returned to his office, his phone started ringing with a call from an unknown number.Austin frowned, but he still picked up the call.An insane bark of laughter came b
The night was especially quiet.Inside their bedroom, the television was currently showing the news about the entertainment industry.It showed a group of reporters interviewing Fiona.Austin frowned as he stared at the television. He did not feel sleepy just yet.Cecily was nestled in his arms. "Why don't you go to sleep, honey?"Austin seemed a little sad. "Just a while more."Cecily glanced over at the television and said, "Everything's already settled, right? Mr. Lockwood's also made a full recovery now. Why are you still worried about Fiona?"A week had passed since Ezra was hospitalized.Thankfully, Ezra had managed to make a full recovery and had been discharged from the hospital.News about Austin and Fiona meeting up in front of Legacy Hospital had become viral news.Austin had also told Cecily about everything that happened to reassure her.Cecily also agreed with Austin that Fiona was a spoiled brat who had immaturely punished someone close to Austin rather than f
Austin squatted down in front of Fiona and then grabbed her by the collar before pulling her right in front of him.Another slap echoed across the room.And following it were Fiona's screams.Even Aldus and Wolf had to look away.Austin eventually opened his mouth to air his grievances. "If you hate me that much, come at me alone! I will never forgive anyone for harming any of my friends… Not even Dorothy herself!"Austin let go of Fiona's collar and let her fall back onto the floor without any hint of restraint.It would have been an extremely horrifying scene for anyone without any context.Arguably the most popular actress in the world was being beaten up to such an extent.Fiona gritted her teeth and shouted, "Who the fuck do you think you are, Austin? You're just an outsider, an animal! Mr. Walter may be protecting you, but no one else will do the same! You angered Grandma… That's why I'm taking revenge for her!"Austin could not help but laugh at the absurdity of it all.
Aldus was shocked by the sudden demand. His lips trembled as he scrambled for something to say.Austin repeated, "I said, bring her away!"Fiona just stood up with a bright smile on her face without any hints of panicking. "Where are you bringing me, Austin?"Austin ignored her question and just turned around to leave.Fiona then quickly followed after him.Wolf frowned as he asked, "Aldus… It seems like Mr. Campbell's really angry. Could Fiona really not tell?"Aldus snorted and explained, "She knows. It's just that she's used to being protected by Mrs. Campbell Senior. I bet not even Mr. Walter himself could do anything about it. I bet she just thinks that Mr. Campbell's the usual prey within the Campbell household."Wolf was left speechless by it all.Aldus let out a sigh and quickly followed after Austin and Fiona. "Let's go, Wolf."He was rather familiar with how someone like Fiona had developed such an arrogant personality after growing up with undisputed power and autho
Austin did not reach out his hand to shake Fiona's as he asked, "Are you the one responsible, or what happened to Mr. Lockwood?"The nearby crowd never caught on to his question as he had lowered his voice.But they were all shocked after seeing that Fiona had lowered her right hand dejectedly after not getting a handshake."My God! Who the hell does this guy think he is? Fiona, of all people, offered to shake hands with him, and he just refused her!""Tsk, tsk… What a cruel man. It's my first time seeing Fiona being rejected by someone.""This is big news! Fiona appeared in public to meet up with a man, only to be met with a cold shoulder! Unless…"Some bad apples had even started to fill in the blanks with their imagination.…Fiona looked around at the crowd and frowned. "Austin, how about we talk somewhere else? It's noisy out here with so many strangers around.""Sure."Austin, Aldus, and Wolf then followed after Fiona.They were all being endowed with countless flashin
Both Austin and Wolf were taken by surprise as they looked up at Aldus in confusion before turning to look at where he was staring.A beautiful silhouette of a woman soon caught Austin's eyes.Her tall and slender figure adorned with a plain white dress, alongside a large sun hat blocking off the sun revealed an extremely attractive face.She had gathered a crowd of passersby staring at her from just standing still.A stunning woman like her could always bring attention to herself no matter where she went, as if she was a lamp that lit up the entire room.Austin frowned and said, "She seems familiar."Wolf replied, "Isn't that Fiona Campbell?"Austin finally realized who the woman was. Although he'd never paid much attention to the entertainment industry, he had still heard of Fiona's name.That was because she had turned into an extremely popular and beloved celebrity over the past yearFiona made her debut on live television in a talent show. Her eventual newfound fame skyro
Austin was in disbelief the moment he laid eyes on the unconscious Ezra lying on the bed.Vincent exclaimed, "Holy hell… When did Ezra get a thing for such hardcore stuff?"Austin glanced at Vincent and shouted, "Shut it!"Cecily lowered her head as she explained, "It was Wolf that sent Mr. Lockwood to the hospital from the hotel… He had already looked for the surveillance footage inside the hotel and saw that a woman had come out from Mr. Lockwood's room before the call for help."Austin was left speechless as he wondered if Ezra had truly gone off the rails.Vincent replied, "Tsk, tsk, tsk… Can't believe Ezra really changed so much in so little time while we're away. His hair may be graying, but his vigor's still as good as ever. Not even I would dabble in such… sophisticated behavior."His comments instantly caused the women in the room to blush.Iris abruptly tugged on Vincent to motion for him to stop talking.Austin rubbed his nose and sneered, "If not even you would try
Inside the VIP ward within Legacy Hospital, the silent room contained only the echoes of the hospital instrument in operation.Cecily covered her mouth with her hand as she stared at Ezra currently lying on the hospital bed. Her eyes were red with sadness and disbelief.Alongside her was Raquel, who was also similarly distraught.Ezra was unconscious as he lay on the bed.Scars could be seen littered all across his back, some of which had skin already torn open, revealing flesh that served as the evidence of the torture that he had gone through.Cecily took a deep breath and turned to Samuel. "Dr. Lewis, what happened?"Samuel tried his best to reassure her. "Mr. Lockwood's in stable condition now. His wounds came from being whipped with extreme force. Not even the man that delivered Mr. Lockwood to us knows who did this to him."Cecily almost fainted after hearing about how Ezra had gotten his wounds.She could not imagine just who could be so merciless to be whipping an old m
Cecily came up with the idea to surprise Austin with a hearty meal after learning that he was on his way home.Raquel wanted to help her out in the kitchen. "Let me help you, Cecily."She felt that it would be too difficult for Cecily to prepare all of the meals alone.And besides, it had always been Raquel who handled the cooking.Housework and cooking up three meals a day were the only things left for Raquel ever since Dahlia had passed away.She felt that she was useless if she could not even contribute to cooking the meals within the house.Cecily was sweating profusely, but she didn't seem the slightest bit affected as she continued cooking in the kitchen. "I'm fine, Raquel! I can do this! Austin must be really tired after everything that happened… so I want to make some delicious food for him. As his wife, I have the responsibility to keep him well-fed!"Raquel was stunned. "Well fed?"Cecily suddenly shuddered in front of the pot as she realized that Raquel seemed to hav
