Chapter 670: Chapter 670 Forced Palace_1
When he saw the bodies before him.
Fabian Percival’s hands had already begun to tremble ever so slightly.
If it weren’t for the fact that he had given the dragon-headed cane to Itai Huntington as a show of force, it’s likely this elderly man would have already started smashing things with his cane.
The elite employees were almost all dead.
Ever since Rebecca Brown had suddenly died on the mountain, the number of capable people he could use among his employees had dwindled.
He didn’t trust Fox Miller and couldn’t possibly let him go out.
If Miller stayed by his side, Rocco Leocadia would still need to keep an eye on him.
Now, Elwood Thorneycroft’s whereabouts were unknown, and Brown Bread had not yet returned!
Fabian Percival was under unprecedented pressure.
“Mr. Thorneycroft!”
Caden Cook’s employee, Orren Beaumont, stepped forward, pointing to Caden Cook’s cold body on the ground, “Jerison Justin has gone too far! Our Aaron Martin, he was one of your elite employees, but Jerison Justin killed my boss without even asking for your opinion!”
“My boss as well!”
“Our boss too!”
There were four bodies lying on the ground.
All of them were elite employees of Fabian Percival.
Without exception, they had all turned traitor.
The loyalty of these employees to their own bosses was far greater than their loyalty to Fabian Percival.
If their bosses hadn’t insisted on turning traitor, these men could have been living carefree and happily, just like Aron Jackson’s employees!
“Jerison… Where is Jerison…”
Fabian Percival felt a wave of dizziness in his head, and his vision began to darken.
The events of these days had been too much of a blow to the old man!
“Mr. Thorneycroft!”
Fox Miller quickly came over and gently supported Fabian Percival, “Mr. Thorneycroft, your health is the most important!”
“I’m fine.”
Fabian Percival gently pushed Fox Miller away and slowly sat down on the sofa behind him.
His heart ached severely.
“Jerison Justin is here!”
Accompanied by a series of hurried footsteps, a group of ruffians dragged in a man covered in blood from outside.
The man’s pajamas were already ragged, and his face was covered in dried blood.
“This is…”
Upon seeing this scene, Fabian Percival stood up all of a sudden!
“This is Jerison Justin!”
Orren Beaumont stepped forward, looked at Fabian Percival, and snorted, “After killing our boss, this guy still has the nerve to sleep at home! A few of us went straight to his place and dragged him out!”
Infuriated upon hearing of their boss’s murder, Orren Beaumont led the remaining employees of Caden Cook to Jerison Justin’s residence overnight.
As it turned out, they bumped into several other groups.
After a quick exchange, they all learned that others had died at the hands of Jerison Justin.
The group directly stormed Jerison Justin’s residence, breaking in!
They dragged out Jerison Justin, who was asleep, and beat him furiously!
Had they not wanted to seek justice for their own boss, they would have killed Jerison Justin long ago!
“Are you… Are you trying to rebel!”
Fabian Percival looked at the bodies all over the floor and Jerison Justin who was close to death, trembling with anger.
“Mr. Thorneycroft, you must not get angry!”
Seeing Fabian Percival pale-faced and lips quivering, Fox Miller quickly went over and spoke soothingly.
“First, take these bodies away! Let Mr. Thorneycroft rest, and tomorrow we will give you justice!”
He gestured for the people to remove the bodies from the ground.
“No!”
Orren Beaumont, who had been brothers with Caden Cook for five years, now saw his own boss tragically dead. He didn’t care about Fabian Percival’s life or death!
“My boss’s bones are not yet cold, this can’t just be left as it is!”
Pointing to the body of Caden Cook with wide eyes on the ground, he shouted back to the crowd, “What do you guys say?”
“We want justice!”
Dozens of people cried out in unison.
Caden Cook is dead, Orren Beaumont is now their boss!
Back then, Orren Beaumont followed Aron Jackson for three years and could turn against him at a say-so.
Not to mention it’s been less than a month since he joined forces with Fabian Percival.
“Justice must be served!”
“The existence of the supervisory department means Mr. Thorneycroft doesn’t trust us!”
“If he doesn’t trust us, why bother having us turncoat?”
The rest of the men also stood up one after another, confronting Fabian Percival!
If their boss could die today, who could guarantee the next moment the hidden weapon box wouldn’t be pointed at their heads?
The existence of the supervisory department is like a ticking time bomb!
Suspended over everyone’s head!
A slightest mistake.
And they would be smashed to pieces!
“Are you trying to stage a coup?”
Fox Miller looked at Orren Beaumont coldly and pointed at him, “Get the hell out of here before Mr. Thorneycroft loses his temper!”
“A coup?”
Orren Beaumont’s face darkened, and he said unabashedly, “Since Mr. Miller thinks we’re staging a coup, then let’s just say we are! If we don’t get an explanation today, I’ll take my brothers and kill all the people in the supervisory department right away!”
“You dare!”
Fox Miller pretended to reach for the hidden weapon box.
Swish!
Before he could make a move, there were already a dozen hidden weapon boxes pointed at him.
“Mr. Miller, don’t make this hard for us! Darts are blind, and if Mr. Thorneycroft gets hurt, you’ll be the criminal!”
Orren Beaumont’s eyes widened, and he roared, “Brothers, take down his hidden weapon box!”
The employees, filled with rage, didn’t care if Fox Miller was one of the “Four Kings”, they rushed forward and snatched away his hidden weapon box!
“You bunch of hooligans!”
Although Fox Miller was skilled, he was facing a dozen hidden weapon boxes.
“Mr. Miller, we’re hooligans after all! Mr. Thorneycroft is no more than a gang leader, did you really think of your brothers as intellectuals?”
Orren Beaumont had made up his mind to seek justice for Caden Cook and then apologize directly to Aron Jackson.
He didn’t want to stay under Fabian Percival a moment longer!
“Miller, stand down!”
Fabian Percival touched his forehead lightly with his hand, signaling to Fox Miller to step back.
With Orren Beaumont and the others being so emotional, it wouldn’t be good if they caused any incidents.
What storms hadn’t he weathered over the years?
“Orren Beaumont, I know the pain in your heart, but after all, I’m your nominal boss. Isn’t it inappropriate to point a hidden weapon box at me?”
Fabian Percival settled back on the sofa, his eyes revealing a cold indifference.
“That’s also true…”
Orren Beaumont’s eyes shifted, feeling it was somewhat improper. “Put away the hidden weapon boxes!”
At his command, his employees behind him put away the hidden weapon boxes, but their eyes remained wary of Fox Miller.
“I need some time to investigate this matter!”
Seeing Orren Beaumont put away the hidden weapon boxes, Fabian Percival finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“Mr. Thorneycroft, the evidence of the witnesses and the items involved are all present, what else do you need to investigate?” Orren Beaumont’s brows knitted tightly together as he spoke with dissatisfaction: “You’re not trying to cover for the supervisory department, are you?”
“I, Fabian Percival, swear to heaven!”
Fabian Percival’s eyes filled with killing intent, “I’ll thoroughly investigate this matter today!”
“Bring up the witnesses!”
Orren Beaumont gestured, and immediately four stretchers were carried in through the door.
On the stretchers lay employees who had been severely injured.
Though they had received simple treatment and bandaging, these people were still very weak.
“Mr. Thorneycroft, these are the brothers who survived. They witnessed Jerison Justin’s murder with their own eyes!” Orren Beaumont stepped on Jerison Justin’s face, “You beast, won’t you confess yet?”
“I didn’t kill anyone…” Jerison Justin mustered all his strength, defiantly bellowing out.
“He indeed didn’t kill anyone.”
Just then, Devlin, who had been hidden in the bedroom, slowly walked out.
What do you think?
