Chapter 888 Ernest’s Action

Book:Contractual Marriage Published:2024-5-1

Ernest asked, “Open the door. Or do you want me to burn the corpse?”
All the guards at the gate shivered.
This man looked like Death himself. They didn’t even have the guts to make a move.
After cowering in the corner for a long while, the guard in the lead plucked up all his courage and shouted, “We can’t let him humiliate Master Hayden! Come on. Take his dead body over!”
“Take Master Hayden’s body back here!”
The words encouraged the rest of the guards. Or probably, they took it as an order. All the shivering guards gathered again, ready to fight.
They knew clearly that they couldn’t retreat no matter how much they feared the man in front. They must protect the Harris family and its dignity, which was their duty.
Hence, following their leader, the group of bodyguards rushed to Ernest altogether.
Right then, only Timothy was standing next to Ernest together with a few bodyguards.
Florence was sitting in the car, peering out of the car window. She rubbed her fingers nervously.
Ernest didn’t bring many people here. The guards from the Harris family were so fierce. She wondered if he could deal with them.
After there, there were too many people from the other party. She was worried that he would get injured later.
Thinking that Stanford could fight against dozens of men that day, Florence wouldn’t be so worried if he were with Ernest now as he would definitely win against those people.
However…
Florence glanced at Stanford, who was still leaning on Phoebe’s shoulder and didn’t have a sign of waking up. She felt desperate.
She wondered how much Stanford had drunk last night. It seemed that he wouldn’t wake up until three days later.
Collin could tell what was in Florence’s mind, so he said in jest, “Flory, don’t worry. Ernest cannot be bullied by others.”
Florence cared about Ernest too much, so she was worried.
However, Collin was an onlooker, so he could clearly see that Ernest was also a good fighter like Stanford.
If those bodyguards dared to lay a finger on him, they must have dead wishes.
Although Florence knew it, her heart still jumped to her throat when she saw the vast group. She gazed at Ernest worriedly, afraid that he would get injured.
Then she saw Ernest sneer. He was fiddling with a sliver lighter with his slim fingers. The lighter spun in his hand, and the fire flickered.
His playful look made the guards even more tensed up.
The leader of the guards yelled aloud, “What do you want? Stop it! If you dare to burn Master Hayden’s body, none of you can leave here alive!”
Ernest sneered in disdain.
The guards became more frightened.
The leader realized that there was a danger.
He reacted quickly and roared, “Hurry up! Try your best to take back the body!”
Ernest stared coldly at the bodyguards who were pouncing at him. Suddenly, he let the lighter fall.
The lighter fell on Hayden’s body under the guards’ horrified gazes.
Obviously, the dead body was soaked in the gasoline before. As soon as the fire touched the body, it was burning fiercely.
The fire burned in an instant.
The guards who rushed to the front were caught in the fire as well.
They took steps back hurriedly. The rest of the guards stiffened, gazing at the burning body, overwhelmed by the despair.
The man was way too ruthless.
How dare he burn the dead body at their gate?
They had never seen such an arrogant man. They ultimately had no idea what to react.
“What’s going on?”
Right then, they heard a man’s anxious voice.
On the sightseeing cart, Remy Harris, the third master of the family hurriedly hopped off from the cart and rushed over.
He looked at the fire in astonishment.
“Master Remy.”
The guards saw one of the masters and returned to their senses.
The leader reported to him desperately, “This man burned Master Hayden’s body. He burned the dead body in front of us.”
Upon hearing it, Remy gaped, looking at the burning fire not far in disbelief.
“Damn it! Fucking bastard!” he cursed in a fury.
Meanwhile, others also got down from the sightseeing cart in anger.
Pointing at Ernest’s nose, they roared, “You are a dead meat!”
“Hurry up. Surround them all. I’ll make them all die. They all should pay for Hector’s life.”
“Prepare the gas and fire. They dared to burn my brother, I’ll burn them to death.”
The four brothers were outraged and yelled in anger to give orders.
Bodyguards followed them out, rushing from all directions with weapons. They surrounded Ernest and the car immediately.
It seemed there were several hundred men.
Florence sat in the car while seeing the situation, her nerve tightening.
All people from the Harris family came out with so many bodyguards.
There were more people than those whom Kieran had taken to the hotel that day.
Ernest didn’t bring as many bodyguards, though. Even he was a good fighter, Florence didn’t think he could leave here safe and sound in the end.
Her face paled. She turned around and grabbed Collin suddenly.
She asked anxiously, “Do you have more men nearby? Can you call them over to help?”
Collin frowned slightly. The current situation was out of his expectation.
It seemed that this Hector Harris was a significant figure in his family, which was why the Harris family had deployed all their guards.
It would be indeed troublesome to deal with several hundred people.
Collin thought for a while and said, “Let me check.”
He put down the tablet and started tabbing on it. Florence didn’t understand it.
However, she knew that he must be calling for help.
Then Florence looked over at Ernest nervously.
Facing so many people, Ernest was still calm. The fierce fire not far made his handsome more stunning, colder, and more threatening.
With a sneer, he looked at them and smiled in disdain.
“Since you all have come out, you’ve saved me a lot of trouble.”
As he spoke, he pulled out a baton from his pocket. It was black, reflecting cold light.
Then the temperature of his aura dropped.
His aura became icy, making others frightened as if they had seen Death.
Seeing Ernest’s action, Timothy tightened his body. His breath became heavy.
Ernest seemed to take any action in person.
Timothy wondered if he planned to eliminate the whole Harris family.
He felt a bit nervous to see the bloody scene later, but he also had some bloodthirsty excitement.
He had been working for Ernest for many years. Ernest seldom fought in person. However, whenever he took action personally, no one could win against him.
Besides, the other party would pay an absolutely tragic price.
Timothy guessed that there would be only one ending for the Harris family, even though they had several hundred in number.
