As soon as the words fell, there was a clang, followed by a click. In the dim dungeon, a glaring light suddenly illuminated the space. The light made Leo squint his eyes for a moment before adjusting.
With the aid of the light, Leo finally saw Sophia clearly. At this moment, she was bound with duct tape on both hands and feet, her mouth covered as well, and her once smooth long hair was now in disarray.
Rage and killing intent instantly filled Leo’s heart.
Leo vigorously pulled the iron chains several times, making a series of clanging sounds, but the chain remained unbroken.
Assisted by Mavis and Dagen, Jacob entered the large iron cage.
When he saw Leo, Jacob laughed, “Softie, didn’t expect this, huh? You, damn, have a taste of your own medicine! Dare to lay a hand on me, and today, I’ll show you the consequences of messing with Jacob!”
As Jacob’s gaze fell on Sophia, he shouted angrily, “Dagen, who the hell allowed you to treat a beauty like this? Hurry up and remove the tape from her!”
Dagen quickly went to remove the duct tape from Sophia’s mouth and limbs.
“Beauty, I’m sorry, my men were too impulsive. Please forgive us,” Jacob made a pitiful expression.
The moment the duct tape was ripped off Sophia’s mouth, she immediately called Leo’s name and asked if he was okay. Then, she climbed up from the ground and ran towards Leo, hugging him tightly.
Jacob didn’t stop her; instead, he watched with interest.
The more affectionate Leo and Sophia appeared, the more painful it would be for Leo later when Jacob humiliated Sophia in front of him.
Jacob’s thoughts were truly twisted.
Meanwhile, on Sebastian’s side, a servant hastily entered the living room, saying anxiously, “Master, someone has forcibly entered the estate!”
As soon as the servant finished speaking, after a few screams, a group of people rushed into the living room.
These people were none other than Bob, Chasel, Bevis, and others.
The Bernard family guards quickly gathered around the villa.
“Who are you people, daring to trespass here? Do you know where you are?” Sebastian coldly questioned.
Bob walked forward, staring coldly at Sebastian, and interrogated, “Are you Sebastian? Where is Leo?”
Just as Sebastian was about to speak, Murray Hoover, who was sitting on the sofa drinking tea, stood up and walked over, his cold gaze sweeping over Bob and the others.
The appearance of Murray Hoover instantly dampened Bob and the others’ spirits, understanding why the powerful Leo had been captured by the Bernard family.
During the confrontation in the cold storage, Bob and the others had witnessed and personally experienced Murray Hoover’s formidable strength.
Murray Hoover withdrew his gaze and said coldly, “Sebastian, these people are here to rescue Leo. No need to waste words with them. Just capture them and throw them into the dungeon.”
For ordinary people, Murray Hoover couldn’t be bothered to act personally.
Upon hearing Murray Hoover’s words, Sebastian waved his hand, instructing, “Capture all these people for me.”
The Bernard family guards, who had arrived, didn’t hesitate and immediately rushed towards Bob and the others.
However, at that moment, a terrifying and powerful force surged in from the door. The Bernard family guards were all blown away by the force.
Murray Hoover erupted with internal energy, resisting the force but still took several steps back, feeling a heaviness in his chest.
“That’s incredible power!” Murray Hoover was somewhat amazed.
After the airflow dissipated, in the living room, no one besides Murray Hoover was standing on the ground. A man of medium build, with a square face and a crew cut, walked in from outside.
The appearance of this man made Murray Hoover’s face drastically change, and he subconsciously uttered the man’s name, “Yale Leigh!”
“Murray Hoover, long time no see. Didn’t expect you to stir up trouble here again,” said the man named Yale Leigh, looking at Murray Hoover with a cold demeanor.
“Yale Leigh, I haven’t provoked you. What are you doing here?” Murray Hoover asked cautiously.
“Where’s Leo?” Yale Leigh asked directly.
Sebastian, unaware of Yale Leigh’s identity but hearing that he came for Leo, couldn’t help but shout, “Who are you? How dare you come here to the Bernard family and cause trouble?!”
Yale Leigh glanced coldly at Sebastian and then swung his left hand backhandedly.
With a loud bang, Sebastian’s body flew diagonally from the ground and fell heavily.
It seemed as if an invisible giant hand had slapped Sebastian away.
After gasping for a while, Sebastian managed to prop himself up from the ground, blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. He looked at Murray Hoover and pleaded, “Master Murray, please, you, you must take action and kill this man!”
Instead of taking action, Murray Hoover took a few steps back, creating distance from Yale Leigh. In his eyes, there was a strong sense of wariness.
Yale Leigh stared at Murray Hoover with a sword-like gaze, and once again coldly said, “Murray Hoover, if you want to live, tell me where Leo is.”
Murray Hoover felt a bit intimidated, but he spoke firmly, “Sorry, you’re too late. Leo is probably dead by now.”
Bob and the others struggled to stand up from the ground, looking at Yale Leigh with complex and fearful expressions.
From Sebastian being knocked down to the fear on Murray Hoover’s face, Bob and the others understood that this sudden arrival was even more terrifying than Murray Hoover.
Was he also here for Leo? Could he be Leo’s friend?
With countless questions in their minds, Bob and the others knew it wasn’t the time to inquire. They just distanced themselves from Yale Leigh and Murray Hoover, preventing any accidental injuries during their possible fight.
Yale Leigh didn’t waste time talking with Murray Hoover. He turned his right hand into a blade and delivered a palm strike directly at Murray Hoover.
Similar to when Murray Hoover attacked Leo before, he couldn’t dodge this palm strike at all. He could only release all of his internal energy to resist.
After a loud explosion, Murray Hoover spat out a mouthful of blood and knelt on the ground.
Murray Hoover, who used to be arrogant, was so vulnerable in front of Yale Leigh.
Bob and the others widened their eyes, once again feeling the horror and dread from this man.
“Yale Leigh, killing me won’t help. Leo, that softie son-in-law, has probably been skinned alive by now!” Murray Hoover endured the pain, looked up at Yale Leigh, and resentfully shouted.
Yale Leigh swung his right hand, just like with Sebastian a moment ago, and Murray Hoover flew out.
Yale Leigh ignored Murray Hoover and walked over to Sebastian. He asked coldly, “Sebastian, if you don’t want to die, tell me where Leo is.”
At the brink of life and death, the survival-focused Sebastian didn’t dare to pretend to be strong. He quickly begged, “I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you. I locked Leo in the dungeon. Please, don’t kill me!”
Yale Leigh lifted Sebastian and Murray Hoover from the ground as if he were picking up chicks. He said, “Take me to the dungeon!”
