Chapter 493

After a moment, the two finally returned to their senses, with Jimmy turning toward Joanna.This material belongs to .

With a cold voice, he said, “Joanna, as a woman—a woman of the DuPont family no less—have you no shame? I want you to come back to Northrive with me this instant!”

Jimmy used to be Patrick’s illegitimate son but was recently legitimized. On the contrary, Joanna was the one who turned into the illegitimate daughter after her mother died, which explained why Jimmy was able to talk to her in such a manner.

Joanna thought his words laughable when she heard them, and Samantha thought it was hilarious.

But at that moment, Moses said, “You’re supposed to be my brother’s wife, Joanna. Your marriage date has already been set so you must return to Northrive with me today. As for the guy next to you, well... He’s a dead man!”

‘Thank goodness Father isn’t here,’ Joanna thought.

She might have stopped Adrian if Patrick were there instead of Jimmy. However, since it was Jimmy, someone completely unrelated to her, she did not care what Adrian did to him.

Joanna said, “Knock yourself out, Adrian.”

After that, she took a few steps back together with Samantha.

Adrian smiled and said, “After the father leaves, here comes the son ... Looks like you people just won’t let this go unless I kill a few of you.”

“Who the f*ck do you think you are?!” Jimmy yelled angrily.

----------------------------------------

“I’m warning you. Joanna is to be my brother’s woman so I’ll make sure you’re buried six feet under if you dare touch her. I’ve come here to show you just what happens to anyone who tries to lay their hands on my brother’s woman!” Moses yelled.

“How cheap can you possibly get, Joanna? How are you able to accept a man such as him, you shameless woman?” Abigail reprimanded.

Joanna revealed a snicker when she heard this but remained silent.

Moses, unable to control his temper, turned toward Jimmy and said, “I just got a brilliant idea, Jim. Why don’t we both enjoy that pretty-looking woman over there together?”

Jimmy was looking at Samantha, who shot the former a disgusted frown.

Jimmy smiled. “That’s a great idea, Moses. Let’s kill the guy and take both of the women back to Northrive. We’ll have all the fun we want with them then.”

“Hahaha!” Moses raised his head and laughed. “Get him, boys!”

However, following a quick “whoosh,” Adrian was already choking Moses by the neck before the men Moses had brought with him could even attack Adrian.

He was shocked when Adrian lifted him up in the air with just a single arm. He grabbed Adrian’s wrist with both hands as he cried in anxiousness, “Let go of me, you b*stard! Let me go!”

Adrian merely sneered and tightened his grip on Moses’ neck. The latter struggled to breathe, feeling his lungs running out of air. At that moment, he began to sweat profusely as he kicked out wildly.

This sudden turn of events shocked both Jimmy and Abigail, neither of them knowing what to do. Without clear instructions, the men Moses brought were confused about whether they should attack Adrian.

“L-Let go!”

Moses, still struggling, was now deathly pale in the face. He was not ready, nor had he expected such a thing to happen to him.

The tighter Adrian’s grip got, the more Moses struggled. Until...

Crack!!!

Moses’ neck was snapped in half and his body went completely limp.

‘He’s dead!’

‘Moses is dead!’
