"Understood." Jack's tone was cold and looked back at Yael.
At this point, Yael was covered in blood. There were numerous deep cuts down to the bone. They were clearly trying to kill Yael! Blood for blood, life for life!
"Yael, release me. I beg you for mercy. I'm your third uncle!" Harold Quinn cried as he begged.
Third uncle? Jack was stunned and his desire to kill grew stronger.
"Third Uncle?" Yael scoffed, "I said that I want to destroy the Quinn family!"
Harold's face turned pale as he looked at Yael's expression. He lost all hope for mercy. His body went limp and lost all hope.
"Do you want me to do it?" Jack looked at the remaining four Quinns, "Or shall we do it together?"
The four Quinns were covered with wounds. They froze as they were yelled at by Jack and were numb to their pain. The four of them exchanged looks and hesitated. It was a capital crime to kill Harold! "Kill him and you'll live! If you don't, you all die with him!" Though Mr. Ward's voice was very soft, it sounded thunderous.
The four Quinns suddenly turned ferocious and lunged towards Harold. The scene made Jack laugh coldly inside. How did the Quinn family become the richest in X City when they were so willing to kill their own? This explained why Yael was willing to kill his father. This also clearly revealed the reasons behind Yael's actions.
Jack turned to look at a light not far away and a hole in the ground. There was also a camera beside the hole.
He said coldly, "Record it properly and take it back to the Quinn family!"
The four did not reply while they ruthlessly carried Harold towards the hole. At this moment, Harold was pale and lost all will to fight. He was totally pale and looked at the hole as he got closer. He didn't expect that all that he had devised now became his own demise. A stench of urine filled the air and Harold's trousers became soaking wet. His eyes shed tears of terror.
Ten minutes later, the Rolls Royce drove like lightning towards LJ Hospital. In the car, Yael had already fainted as his head rested on Jack's thigh. He continued to frown tightly in anger even after he fainted. "How deep is his hatred?" Jack muttered, "Mr. Ward, are you aware of what happened?"
Mr. Ward smiled with deep meaning and said, "Master, this is Yael's private matters and also X City's Quinn family's secrets. It isn't appropriate for me to say. Perhaps in the future, Yael would be willing to tell you."
Jack raised his eyebrows, "You guys dig into other family's private matters all the time. Now you tell me that it's their private matters? You can just tell me if you're unwilling to say!" Mr. Ward, "..."
Jack changed Yael's posture to ease the pressure on the wounds on Yael's back. Jack frowned as he looked at the wounds.
The car was thick with the foul odor of blood. Yael's body was covered with wounds and blood but he persisted. There were a total of nineteen cuts and even Jack could not imagine the pain that he endured. He was shocked by Yael's tenacity.
But...
"Mr. Ward, what about this issue? Do you know the details?" Jack asked about what happened tonight.
Mr. Ward shook his head and said with some doubt, "The issue happened suddenly and there was insufficient time to check in detail. But it should not be Yael who wanted to be out of the family. No family would be so petty unless there was a trouble maker within the family but then again, the chance is also rather small."
Jack smiled bitterly, "Then we can only wait for Yael to regain his consciousness before we'll know, but..."
He tapped gently on Yael's chest, "You must pull through this, bro!"
...
Three days later.
Yael was finally out of the ICU and transferred to the VIP patient ward. Then enabled Jack's heart to relax. In the previous three days, the hospital had sent numerous danger warnings on the criticality of Yael's condition.
Once he walked into the patient room, Yael had already woken up but he continued to be weak and pale. At this moment, his entire body was covered by bandages and looked like a mummy.
"You've finally pulled through." Jack and Yael exchanged looks and both sighed in relief.
"Thanks, thanks..." Yael's voice was very weak as he muttered through the oxygen mask.
Jack shook his head and sat next to the bed.
He looked at Mr. Ward and asked, "Any results from the investigation?"
"No, the Quinn family has covered up very well." Mr. Ward shook his head and continued, "And regarding Harold's incident, it was calm at the Quinn family over these three days." After they sent Yael to the emergency treatment room, Jack instructed Mr. Ward to utilize the Hughes family prowess to investigate why they wanted to kill Yael.
The investigation yielded nothing over three days. But he was surprised that the Quinn family did not react to what happened to Harold.
Jack shook his head and looked at Yael, "I can only ask you why did they want to kill you?"
Yael looked dazed for several seconds and then he suddenly laughed.
Although he was very weak his expression was as if he thought nothing of the attempt on his life and said, "Nothing in particular."
He shrugged his shoulders but that moved his wounds and he winced his pain before saying, "Because I dug my father's grave and scattered my father's ashes."
Kaboom!
His lackluster attitude was like a clear day thunderbolt which stunned Jack and Mr. Ward. It wasn't enough that he killed his father? Now he even destroyed his father's grave and scattered his ashes? What a ruthless person!
"Don't be shocked... cough..." Yael smiled as if it was nothing but coughed due to his injuries, "I'm no longer a Quinn, so... why can't I do it?"
What he said stumped Jack and Mr. Ward. But Jack could see the complication in his eyes. It was indescribable and could only be expressed by the word, 'ruthless'. Perhaps he absolutely hated his father for
some reasons.
"Have a good rest." Jack sighed and stood up to leave.
Mr. Ward followed Jack out of the room. Jack leaned onto the wall along the corridor and his mind kept processing Yael's expression. His chest felt extremely tight as if it could explode at any moment. He thought that his past was dark enough. He couldn't help but think that when compared to Yael's past, he might have had an easy time.
"This boy has too much burden on his shoulders." Mr. Ward sighed and continued, "The Quinn family had truly raised a beast."
Jack looked at Mr. Ward in surprise but smiled, "Take good care of him, I'll leave first."
"Rest assured, Master Hughes." Mr. Ward said respectfully.
Jack raised his thumb without looking back and said, "Mr. Ward, I forgot to praise you. You can really conceal your skills. With your martial arts skills, I'm sure you aren't afraid to take on Brent!" Mr. Ward paused and smiled, "No no... It's just something I learned when I played along with Yael. It can't be used in real life."This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
"Pftt..." Jack laughed.
At the same time.
The Quinn family of X City was expecting the arrival of a person of very high importance.☐☐☐☐
