Chapter 995
“Gus Zeller…!!!” Willy hissed furiously, but there was nothing he could do.
“Willy,” Tony said quietly just then, “Gus is right. You haven’t been found innocent of Zam’s death, and now, you’ve brought more trouble to our doorstep. You’re in the wrong here, so apologize to Mr. Lawrence now.”
“What?!”
Willy’s eyes widened so much they could pop out, and he shrieked even as he looked up at them, “Am I hearing this wrong?! This… This Frank Lawrence barged into our home, killed our bodyguards, and hurt me! And you’re letting this slide?! When has our family become this weak?! Or do we not fight back when others shit on us these days?!”
“Silence!” Gus bellowed icily as he strode a step forward. “Let me make this clear—you’ve only ever been causing us trouble, and you’re a suspect in your own granduncle’s death! Don’t try to cry your way out of this!”
Then, pointing at Frank, Gus laughed despite himself. “Frank Lawrence sent a courier to deliver a medicine, but forget stopping him—you’d torture the man? What is it that you mean to do? You don’t want me to get me medicine and get better?! The only person who has been unfair is you!”
Gus’s bellow left Willy’s flushing in frustration, just as Tony waved his hand, coming up with a verdict. “That’s enough. Mr. Lawrence. You’ve struck my grandson and voiced your grievance. Why don’t we let bygones be bygones?”
Even before Willy could give a piece of his mind, Frank laughed coldly and shook his head at Tony.
Looking downward at Willy, who kept struggling against his foot, he growled through his teeth, “Do you know how vile this prick has been? He broke every bone in my courier’s body, pulled off every fingernail, and took a chunk off his scalp. My courier was barely breathing when I found him!”
Gus and Tony both scowled at Frank’s description, shocked by Willy’s vileness.
“Oh, and did you think that’s all?”
Frank snickered coolly. “He was not satisfied after putting my courier through all that torture. He had him sent to the hospital to be treated, just so he could bring him back for another round!”
Gus’s rage was visible just then.
Even if he did not see Nash’s actual state, he could feel it in his bone just how far over the line Willy had gone from Frank’s description alone!
On the other hand, Tony’s expression cooled, but not from outrage.
“Frank Lawrence,” he said. “Do you have any proof of what you said? I can’t take your words at face value unless you produce evidence.”
“That’s right!” Willy howled from the floor. “Don’t believe their bullshit, Granduncle! I did beat up that courier, but I never tortured him! He’s just using the whole thing as an excuse to hurt me!”
“Hmph!”
Crunch.
Willy squealed like a gutted pig right then-Frank had shoved his foot down, crushing one of his kneecaps!
