I’m Someone Else -
Chapter 57
Chapter 57
Well, now that the father is here, I suppose I should teach him a lesson on behalf of his son. After all,you’re responsible for the trouble your son has caused me because if you’re not to blame, who else is?
“You…”
“Go to hell with ‘you’!” Thomas snarled and choked Jerry’s throat, slamming his face onto the table fullof cake and beverages.
“I have done nothing wrong to your son. I was just sitting on the couch in the living room, minding myown business, so why did he get so upset about that? I don’t care who he likes, but he can’t frame mefor stealing for the sake of someone he is in love with. After all, I don’t even know him at all! As for you,what do you think you’re doing here trying to stir up some trouble on my turf? Are you executing yourretaliation plan against me to stand up for your son?! Do I look like a pushover whom you could justbully as you like? Or do you think you can do whatever you want just because you think you’re rich andpowerful? I don’t care whether it’s the Turner Family or someone else. If you piss me off, you’re goingto pay the price!”
Thomas raised his leg and landed a blow on Jerry’s knee as soon as he finished his words. When aloud popping was heard from Jerry’s knee joint, Thomas only gloated over the former’s misery, thinkingthat was what he deserved after what he did. Be prepared to spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair.
“Ah!” In that instant, Jerry screamed in agony, unable to tolerate the pain as his knees were destroyedin a devastating manner. After all, he had only ever broken other people’s legs until that moment whenhe finally had a taste of his own medicine. What made that even more ironic was the fact that theperson who broke his legs was the ‘driver’ whom he had always despised and disdained.
Meanwhile, the bystanders who had just witnessed what happened gulped in fear, not expecting Jerry,who was the patriarch of the great Tuner Family, to be disabled in just a matter of minutes. Oh mygosh! That was brutal!
At the same time, Thomas glimpsed Jerry with contempt and called him a coward who was in over hishead. This guy has zero imagination about his limits. How audacious of him to threaten to kill me! Hethen walked up to Jerry, who was still caught in a trance, and pointed at Molly. “Apologize to her now!”
“Ah? O-Of course! Right away!” Curtis snapped out of his trance, his body shaking like a leaf, when herealized all six of his bodyguards were dead. Even my dad is now crippled! Do I even stand a chanceagainst this man? If Thomas wanted it, he could even kill me right away! Despite his desire to stand up,Curtis’ legs failed him. At the same time, he was afraid that he would piss off Thomas if he made Mollywait for his apology. Therefore, he crawled pathetically toward Molly and kneeled down before her,whereupon he kowtowed to her and apologized to her non-stop. “I’m so sorry. Please forgive me.”Deep down, there was nothing else more important than staying alive to Curtis, including his status andreputation.
When everyone else saw that, they were terrified by Thomas’ violence. Although the Turner Family wasnot considered a part of the upper class in society, their presence was still widely respected andrevered. Therefore, it seemed to the rest that the Tuner Family had suffered great humiliation as soonas Thomas murdered their bodyguards and crippled the patriarch, Jerry. To rub salt in their wound,Thomas even made Curtis kowtow and apologize to Molly.
In the meantime, Curtis kowtowed as hard as he could, making a loud bang every time his forehead hitthe ground because he was afraid he couldn’t please Thomas. In fact, he had kowtowed so many timesthat he had lost count of it. Although he had saved himself from being bashed in the face by Thomaswith a stool, his face was still covered in blood, yet Thomas showed no signs of telling him to stop.After all, Thomas wanted him to remember the lesson that he learned today so that he wouldn’t repeathis mistake one more time.
“Izzy!” Thomas set his eyes on the last person, who used to be his high school classmate. Deep down,he held a strong grudge toward the lady after the last two encounters in which she caused him, onceduring their alumni gathering and the other one at Pearson Group. However, having already let Izzy off
in the past, Thomas was determined to punish her this time. At the thought of that, he marched towardIzzy in an intimidating manner.
Although Thomas wanted to kill those people and put an end to all the trouble, he decided to hold backbecause it was John’s birthday feast, not to mention the fact that he had already taken six lives.Nevertheless, he subsequently changed his mind and took Molly with him to confront Izzy and theothers. Unfortunately, Molly took a slap in the face so hard that blood could still be seen from the cornerof her lips. If I let you go, I’m going to be sorry for Molly. Besides, even if I’m not doing this for Molly, Imust live up to my pride as a man, or Olivia is going to be so disappointed with me.
The next second, Izzy, who was intimidated by Thomas’ violence, sank to her knees when the manwalked up to her.
“Izzy, did I ever rub you the wrong way back in school? Or did I ever speak ill of you behind your back?”
In response to Thomas’ interrogation, Izzy was rendered speechless. In fact, she chose to mess withThomas because she was in love with him earlier, only to realize he had a girlfriend back then. Besidesthat, she was also jealous of him for being a top student, so when she saw how miserable his life was,she immediately vented her anger out on him by trying to make his life difficult.
Noticing Izzy’s silence, Thomas raised his hand decisively and was ready to strike her. You asked forthis in the first place!
“Stay your hand, Thomas!” Thomas heard a lady’s voice just when he was about to strike. He thenturned around and saw a lady wearing a red dress walking in his direction, furrowing his eyebrows inpuzzlement. Who is this lady? Do I know her?
The lady smiled and said, “I wouldn’t be surprised seeing you so confused because you and I don’tknow each other at all. I’m Elaine Denver, William’s cousin.”
“Oh!” Thomas nodded. “What’s up? Is there anything I can help you with?”
“She is but a girl, after all. Have some chivalry and let her go, would you?”
When Izzy heard the lady standing up for her, she acted as if she saw a glimmer of hope. “Help me,Elaine!” In fact, Izzy apparently knew Elaine because she was the marketing director of the latter’scompany. Therefore, she was counting on her own boss to save her a possibly terrible fate.
“Look, Thomas. Izzy is my employee, so please do me this favor and let it slide.” Elaine tried to protecther employee. In fact, she witnessed the fight between Izzy and Molly but did nothing to stop it.Considering the relationship between Izzy and Curtis, Elaine didn’t think it was necessary for her tostep in until she saw what Thomas did to Jerry. If I don’t interfere, I won’t dare imagine what wouldhappen to my employee.
“Are you kidding me?” Thomas chuckled and added, “If I let Izzy off this time, who is going to beresponsible the next time she comes looking for trouble with me again?”
“Yes. Look, you and William are good friends while I’m his cousin, so I…”
“Can you give me a reason why I should do you this favor?” Thomas interrupted the lady. You’re smartto mention Will, aren’t you, lady? But I’m not dumb, either. If I do you this favor, how am I supposed toanswer Molly? She already took a beating, and nothing can be done to change that.
“How dare you?!” Elaine was annoyed as she didn’t expect Thomas to be so stubborn even in front ofthe crowd.
