CHAPTER 535 HE HAS TO BE PUNISHED
Stefan struggled and squeezed those words out of her mouth.
Other people took a step back when they heard her scream. And then they winded their eyes and
looked at her in disbelief.
They wondered if Stefan would really eat the bread out of the manure pit.
Leo grinned a sinister smile and said, "Wise choice."
He then moved his foot away.
Stefan looked frustrated and lay on her side.
Her face was covered by dirt, and her hair looked like a mess. This should be the most embarrassing
moment of her life.
She bit her teeth so hard that her gum was bleeding. Her whole body was trembling.
She looked at Leo, eyes taken over by resentment.
She felt extremely humiliated. She had to eat a stinky break out of a manure pit, just to let Leo spare
her life.
However, if she didn't do as Leo said, she knew that Leo would definitely crush her head without
hesitation.
Nothing was more important than survival to her now.
She wasn't even in the position to make a choice.
Stefan walked to the stenchful manure pit like a mad dog.
Buzz buzz...
The blowflies there seemed to have felt Stefan walking over. All of them flew over to her.
Stefan reached out her hand and was going to pick up the stinky bread.
However, she couldn't help but frown at the stench coming from the pit. Then she withdrew her hand.
"Hurry up. I don't have that much time to waste on you."
Leo's impatient voice came from behind again.
Stefan subconsciously looked back and saw Leo was already standing behind her.
Moreover, he had already raised a foot.
If Stefan didn't pick the bread up and eat it, he would definitely trample her dead flat.
Stefan trembled like a leaf thinking of that. She didn't have much time to hesitate now.
She gritted her teeth, reaching out her hands.
Thud!
She reached into the stinking pit and scooped out the bread.
At the same time, her hands had been covered with filth.
At that moment, she was like a garbage car passing by the streets. Everyone else covered their nose
and tried to keep away from her.
This was a lifetime humiliation for Stefan. As she held the bread, she couldn't help trembling.
Ayan and Jonah looked even more frightened.
If they were the ones mistreating Emilia just now, they would be the ones getting punished now.
They couldn't move their eyes away from Stefan, wondering if she would really eat it.
Stefan opened her mouth several times, but she still couldn't make up her mind to have it. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Leo chucked slowly, "You're still hesitating, which means you are still not mentally prepared, right?
Maybe I should give you a hand."
Seeing the creepy smile on Leo's face, Stefan twitched in horror.
"What do you want?"
Leo looked at her and said, "I'll give you three seconds to eat it, or you'll die."
After that, he turned around and started to count down.
"Three..."
"Two..."
Every time he counted down, Stefan felt as if her heart had been squished and skipped a beat.
Death was approaching her, step by step.
Leo wasn't forcing her because he was perverted. He was just giving Stefan a taste of her medicine.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have turned around. He didn't want to watch Stefan eating the filth, too.
"One!"
As Leo finished counting down, her tone turned low and cold.
At the same time, his foot also trampled down like a hammer, heading right on Stefan's head.
"No!"
Stefan screamed and looked terrified.
She could tell Leo wasn't trampling to scare her. He was trying to kill her.
"I'll eat it. I'll eat it, okay? Don't kill me..."
Stefan finally broke down. She pinched her nose and swallowed it.
"Ugh..."
Leo had turned around because he really didn't want to see how Stefan was doing it.
He only heard Stefan couldn't stop vomiting behind him.
No matter how disgusting that sound was, Leo had never looked back. After a while, he took a step
forward.
He skimmed over with swift and fierce eyes, in the depths of which there was thick killing intent.
Other people subconsciously made way for him, because they all knew that Leo was heading to Ayan.
"What are you doing? I thought you said you'll spare my family as long as Stefan ate that bread?"
Ayan kept retreating, his face filled with anger.
Leo stared at Ayan and declared word by word, "When did I say that?"
"If it weren't for the support of your family, how could a loser like her be so bold?"
"You've committed much more crimes than her!"
"Boom..."
As soon as he said that, all the members of the Watts family changed their colors.
Jonah was the most frightened one.
Leo just declared a death sentence upon the Watts family.
"Leo! You're way over the line!"
Ayan roared at Leo.
Leo ignored him and looked at Laura, who was standing in the corner.
"You and Jonah are siblings. Why were you locked down, but he wasn't?"
Leo was here for revenge, so he needed to figure things out first.
Both Jonah and Laura had high status in the Watts family, and Laura's status was even higher. He
wondered why she had been locked down.
How did Jonah keep himself from the trouble?
Leo had a feeling that this issue might be critical.
Laura was silent for a while, and then she looked at Jonah.
Jonah's face paled, and he shook his head violently at Laura, hoping her sister would not let out the
truth.
However, Jonah had obviously underestimated Laura's intention of revenge.
After staring at him and hesitating for a while, Laura's face darkened. She pointed at Jonah and
admitted, "It's him. He told other people that Emilia was your daughter. He also proposed that we
should teach Emilia a lesson. That was why Stefan had the opportunity. He did this because he was
trying to compete for the position of our family patriarch, and he was afraid that I would stand in his
way!"
After Laura finished speaking, Hu Jingzhu's face turned ashen.
After knowing the whole story, Leo looked at Jonah with steely eyes and announced, "You're so dead
today."
After that, he strode toward Jonah.
Thud, thud, thud!
The heavy footstep pounding sounded like death approaching.
Jonah was in terror. His face changed drastically as he yelled, "Leo, what do you want?"
Leo looked calm and replied, "I should have killed you last time. You are such a scourge."
Jonah shivered with fear because he could feel the killing intent in Leo's words.
Just by then, Ernie took a step forward and took a grim at Jonah. Then he said coldly, "Mr. Cohen, you
don't need to do that by yourself. I'll get rid of him for you."
Leo nodded unsmilingly. "Well then... There would be no Watts family in Hopkins from tonight on!"
These words echoed like devil's murmuring and stirred the minds of every member of the Watts family.
Jonah was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground.
Ernie looked so stern and nodded to an old man in a grey robe standing beside him.
Ernie had been feeling guilty for not being able to help Leo. Now he could finally give Leo a hand.
The grey-robed man was the powerhouse of the Palmer family.
He wasn't as powerful as the twin killer, but he could at least be the match for Mr. Lawrence.
"No, please don't kill me..."
"I'm still young and have a bright future. I don't want to die!"
Jonah's face was twisted by despair. He looked so fearful yet reluctant to give up on struggling.
The grey-robe man uttered expressionlessly, "You have to die today."
"Boom..."
The next moment, he threw a heavy punch at Jonah's face.
"Jonah!"
Ayan emitted a deafening wail and was about to rush over.
Jonah had been appointed as the next patriarch of the Watts family. If he died so young, the Watts
family would come to an end.
Ayan would rather sacrifice himself to protect the younger generation.
However, no one had even taken a glance at him.
The old man in the gray robe's punch was about to reach Jonah's face.
"Stop!"
Suddenly, someone else let out a shrill scream.
This time, Leo's face turned serious, and he shouted, "Stop! Do as she said!"
Ernie immediately stopped the old man from punching.
The old man in the gray robe had to try very hard to stop punching.
Almost all Martial Arts practitioners knew that it would be more than challenging to withdraw a waved-
out punch. It required accurate control over one's body.
Only the top powerhouses could withdraw their strength as precisely as they exerted it.
The gray-robed old man still had a long way to be a real powerhouse. It was already very difficult for
him to take back that strike now.
Lucky for Jonah, the old man's fist stopped less than a centimeter away from Jonah's face.
However, the momentum of that strike had already gone off his fist.
After a loud booming sound, the wall behind Jonah caved in slightly. Gravels were constantly falling
down.
Jonah was so frightened that she didn't even dare to breathe.
Other people's eyes all moved to Laura, who was standing behind them.
As she screamed out, she knelt down before Leo and lowered her head.
"Leo, I know that you and I are enemies, but can you let go of my brother as the reward for that I
protected your daughter?"
"He might have done very horrible things, but does he really deserve to die for this?"
Leo fell into silence.
Ernie immediately motioned the old man to stop. Now that Leo had decided to stop, Ernie would just
give Leo what he wanted.
"Yes, that's true!"
Jonah realized what was happening and couldn't wait to chime in with Laura in a trembling voice.
Leo's eyes turned grim again. Obviously, he had no intent to let Jonah go so easily.
Just by then, Emilia ran over and helped Laura up carefully. Then she said to Leo in her soft and cute
voice, "Dad, can you do what she pleaded, please?"
Emilia's words weighed more than anything to Leo. The horrifying grim in Leo's eyes was gone now. He
put on a gentle smile.
"Okay, I promise."
Leo looked at Jonah again and said gloomily, "I'll spare you life this time for your sister's sake. If you do
it again next time, I swear I'll kill you no matter what."
"Thank you!"
Tears streamed down Laura's face. She was more than grateful for Leo at this moment.
Jonah nodded like a pecking chicken. No one could see his face because he was lowering his head.
He was smoldering with resentment. He swore to himself secretly that one day, he would fight Leo to
death.
Just when everyone felt relaxed because they thought Jonah would be safe, Leo spoke again.
"But I never said I would let you walk away with this without being punished."
Leo said with stern looks, "I won't kill you, but that doesn't mean I won't teach you a lesson. You've hurt
my daughter, and you'll have to pay the price."
As Leo finished speaking, he strode to Jonah and looked at her condescendingly.
Jonah asked with a terrified face, "My sister has already begged for mercy for me. What else do you
want?"
Leo looked at the stenchful manure pit and laughed, "That might be a nice place for you."
After saying that, Leo picked Jonah up and threw him into the pit.
