Chapter 48
The next second, Caleb foamed right away in the mouth!
He had fallen unconscious!
Kingsley grabbed a thin blanket from the side and gently covered Yulia's body with it.
Then, he walked over to Caleb and crouched down before he layered one finger on top of the other as he pressed on the acupuncture point between the latter's eyebrows thrice.
"Ahhh—"
Caleb groaned in pain as he slowly opened his eyes.
Then, the pain between his legs began to spread once again! He was in so much pain that cold sweat broke out on his face as he trembled and asked, "W-What are you trying to do?"
"I'm going to kill you!" Kingsley's low voice was filled with murderous intent!
"D-Don't kill me..." Terrified, Caleb was shaking as he wailed, "I didn't touch her! Not even a finger!"
Kingsley's gaze was ice-cold as he snarled, "Had I arrived one second too late, you would've done something to her, wouldn't you?!"
His eyes were red as the aura around him filled with the intent to kill!
Caleb sobbed and said, "This whole thing isn't my idea! My brother was the one who arranged this! Don't kill me! If you want to kill someone, kill my brother instead!"
"None of you can escape!" Kingsley's voice was cold. "The Summers Family! Not a single person in the Summers Family will escape punishment!"
When he saw the raging, murderous intent in Kingsley's eyes, Caleb pleaded shakily, "I-Is that really necessary... It's just a girl; do you have to wipe out the entire Summers Family just for her—"
Before he could finish speaking, Kingsley had already stepped squarely on his mouth!
"You might as well get rid of your foul mouth!"
Instantly, Caleb's neat rows of white teeth fell out! His mouth, which was now full of blood, looked even more terrifying than the demons of hell!
Kingsley's gaze was sharp as he reminded Caleb coldly, "I've said it before at Randy's birthday banquet—I'll give the Summers Family one month to move out of Summers Residence! How are the preparations going?"
Hearing that, the man was so terrified that his eyes rolled back in his head. They had done no preparations whatsoever, for everyone in the Summers Family paid no mind to Kingsley's words!
"It seems like you and your family didn't listen to me."
As Kingsley sneered, he stood up and carried Yulia in his arms. Then, he said without looking back, "Your actions today have provoked me to no end! I'll give you another five days at most! If your family still hasn't moved out of Summers Residence by then, I'll make sure you pay all debts, both old and new!"
With Yulia in his arms, Kingsley walked out of Pauley Hotel. Then, he dialed Keene s number.
After hearing the news, the woman hurried over and brought Yulia back to the apartment she was renting.
She took care of Yulia until Yulia regained consciousness before leaving in assurance.
However, Keene feared that Yulia would worry, so she didn't say anything about Kingsley. Instead, she simply let Yulia rest at home.
At the same time, Caleb was rushed to the hospital and sent into the operating room at first instance.
After the surgery that lasted a few hours, the doctor shook his head as he said to Randy, "I'm sorry, Mr. Summers. Young Master Caleb has suffered grave injuries, so his ability in some aspects might be—"
What?!
The terrible news was too much of a shock!
Randy fell back into his seat. In an instant, he seemed to have advanced at least ten years in age!
He gradually recovered his senses after being stunned for more than ten minutes.
As he gritted his teeth, he had a terrifying expression on his face as he said to Connor Summers standing beside him, "Revenge! I must exact revenge! I'll make that Nicholson guy wish he were dead!!!"
After two days of treatment at the hospital, Caleb was taken back to Summers Residence under Randy's orders.
Then, Randy hired the best private doctor in Cleapolis, for he feared that his youngest son might suffer even more!
Caleb lay on the bed, his face ghostly pale. "Dad, that Nicholson guy said he’ll come and make us pay five days later! There are only three days left!"
He had just finished talking when the butler of the Summers Family strode over and reported respectfully, "Old Master Summers, Young Master Caleb, someone delivered a letter earlier."
"What letter? Bring it here."
Randy took the letter and opened it. His eyebrows knitted together instantly once he finished reading it.
On the letter was a message that read, 'Move out of Summer Residence in three days! If not, I'll be there personally to make you pay! Yours truly, Kingsley Nicholson!'
"Outrageous! This is outrageous!" Randy slammed his fist on the table. "How dare a mere orphan threaten our family! Am I, Randy Summers, nothing to him?!" © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Connor narrowed his eyes. "Dad, since he's coming over in three days, why don't we set up a trap and catch him?"
"Yes! You're right!" Randy turned to look at Caleb.
"Caleb, get in contact with that Reaper again! Tell him to bring his men here in three days! We'll give him whatever sum of money he requests!"
Caleb was grinning evilly. "Alright! I'll call up Ashton right now! In three days, that Nicholson guy won't leave here alive!"
Two days later, it was the night before the final showdown.
Kingsley was in his room as he said in a low voice over the phone, "Lancer, is everything ready?"
"Yes, Ares. The fifty thousand elite soldiers throughout Solaris Province have all gathered in Cleapolis! We're ready to launch an attack on the Summers Residence at any time!"
"Good. Have them on standby right there to await orders!"
"Understood, Ares!"
Lance responded firmly before he added, "Also, we've detected many figures of the underworld advancing into Cleapolis, most of them Ashton's men. I'm guessing it might have something to do with our operation tomorrow. Shall we set up makeshift barricades to keep them out of the city?" "That won't be necessary." A cold look flashed across Kingsley's eyes. "If they wish for death so badly, I'll grant their wishes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the night wind began to billow as clouds raced across the dark sky!
A looming aura that threatened to cause immense chaos was swirling in the air above Cleapolis...
Meanwhile, the lights from the buildings remained lit and unperturbed under the night sky.
At that moment, Ashton drunkenly feasted at the banquet table with a beautiful lady in each arm.
Randy and Connor sat facing each other, discussing how they would get rid of Kingsley tomorrow.
Kayla was wearing her newly bought ring as she grinned, popping grape after grape into Caleb's mouth.
Everything seemed as they usually were. Unfortunately, none of them sensed the raging storm hidden under the calm, and they were all unaware of their terrible downfall after tonight!
Early the next day, the sky was ashen; the weather forecast even reported that there might be a heavy thunderstorm today.
Reene went out for work early that morning.
While she drove, she glanced at the heavy rain clouds that seemed to press on the city. She sighed. "It's going to rain again—"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As soon as she finished speaking, consecutive explosions of sound boomed in the sky abruptly!
In a straight line, six fighter jets zoomed across the sky at a low altitude!
"That's-"
It was only then that Reene noticed something off about Cleapolis today!
At every intersection, big or small, a fully-armed soldier was stationed there, standing on guard.
On the main road, military vehicles drove past in quick succession!
There were also helicopters painted in military green flying across the sky, raising soundwaves after each other.
The entire city seemed to have fallen into a state of war!
