He could clearly hear Marvin’s shouts, he told him that Jonathan had called. It was very likely he had good news. Credence stood up and glared at Jeremy, his look turned vicious, “Mr. Sherman, it seems that I won’t be able to kneel down to you tonight.”
“We’ll see.”
Jeremy glanced at him and sneered with his thin lips. He said “Credence, don’t forget, the road to happiness is full of hardships. Your daughter’s illness can’t be cured so easily. I believe that sooner or later, you will have to kneel down and beg for my help!”
Credence swept his gaze across the room, but his eyes were defiant, “We will talk about it when that day arrives.”
“Huh.”
Jeremy scoffed evilly. When he was about to retort, the door was kicked open loudly from the outside. Marvin and Benjamin led several tough men in black with sharp eyes. Whether they did this intentionally or not, they had surrounded Jeremy and Wilson.
Marvin turned his head and solemnly glanced at the grim-faced Jeremy. He had to control himself really hard to prevent himself from cursing. His fierce eyes were full of murderous intent. “Mr. Sherman, a straightforward person does not resort to such lowly behavior. With Credence’s status, he has no reason to fear you at all. Do you see these men? Everyone here is prepared. If you dare force Credence to kneel down to you, we will take your life!”
“You wish to kill me?”
This sounded like a big fat joke. He raised his eyes and laughed so hard that his whole body trembled. “Mr. Jules, it’s not like the two of us haven’t fought before. With how weak you are, do you really think you can kill me?! I’m standing here right now. I am not afraid to fight you guys alone. Do you think I’m afraid? I’ve spilled more blood on my hands than all the water you’ve had in your life. Why the f*ck do I have to be afraid of you!”
“F**k you!”
Upon hearing these words, Marvin’s men turned their gaze on him. They rolled up their sleeves and were ready to fight him.
If he didn’t cripple this perverted maniac tonight, he’d have to change his name!
Credence spoke. “Marvin, why are you arguing with a psycho? Let’s go!”
Credence then turned around and walked to the door with no expression on his face.
In order to not appear weak in front of Jeremy, he even gave up his wheelchair. He stood up straight and strode out.
After Marvin regained his senses, he snorted coldly and waved his hand at the other men and Benjamin. After that, they quickly left.
Jeremy and Wilson were the only ones left in the big room. Their faces slowly turned livid.
“D*mn it!”
Jeremy jumped up and kicked the bar counter. He kicked the vodka bottle and made them collide with each other, causing a ruckus.
“Boss…”
Wilson was frightened, his face was pale, he was helpless and scared. He helplessly watched Jeremy enter the bathroom before fiercely slamming the door shut.
Jeremy opened the tap and washed his face. The burning rage and hatred in his heart could not be extinguished by the cold water. Instead, it only grew.
He squinted his long and narrow eyes with a cold face and stared at himself in the mirror. He smiled evilly.
Ysabelle was one of the most beautiful women in Talco City when he was younger. He had her genes when it came to looks. Their facial features were exquisite and perfect, but Ysabelle’s was gentle and tender. On the other hand, he was handsome, arrogant, and aggressive.
There were plenty of times where he hated seeing his own face in the mirror. How could such a selfish woman be his mother?
When he was six years old, Sheldon didn’t approve of the two of them. Instead, he hated them. Sheldon even vowed to only have one son, and that was Credence, for the rest of his life.
Therefore, on that sultry night, Ysabelle got drunk. At the same time, she picked up a long whip and hit him hard. He was beaten black and blue and was laying in a pool of blood, his entire body was covered with scars.
Ysabelle wasn’t done. She kept cursing at him as she pressed his head into the sink. She scolded him, she said that he was worse than trash for not being able to win Sheldon’s heart.
Back then, if Yezoo hadn’t suddenly opened the door, he might have drowned.
Because of Sheldon, the young Jeremy had suffered endless torment and dark nights. He suffered so much that no ordinary person could ever even return from it. He went back and forth from the depths of hell, he died and was reborn, over and over again…
How could he forgive Sheldon’s only son, Credence, so easily?
It was said that people should be respectful of their parents and accept them for who they were.
What utter bullsh*t!
Not all children were born in ways that their parents wanted them, and not all children were regarded as their little angels.
If there was good in humanity, then there would be evil as well.
Cold-blooded parents were monsters. If they didn’t have a happy life, they would impose all their negative emotions and violence onto their children.
In the end, their child turned out just like them. They would have a blood-thirsty heart, and the more he killed, the more excited he got. He was now basically a devil in the form of a human.
Jeremy looked coldly at the man in the mirror. He looked at the face that looked like Ysabelle’s. Suddenly, he threw the bottle of soap in his hand at the mirror, and it landed on the table, making a loud noise.
He couldn’t live as an ordinary man anymore, he couldn’t feel any warmth or love in his life.
Just as he was deep in thought, the door opened from the outside. Wilson was standing there, and he trembled in fear. Wilson did not expect to see the pain in Jeremy’s eyes when he entered. He was flustered for a while, and quickly took two steps back and said in a panic, “Boss, Credence, and the others have already left. Shall I send my men to catch up with them and cause some trouble?”
“There’s no need for that.”
When Wilson mentioned Credence, Jeremy’s whole body tensed up, as if he was trapped in a net. He threw the cigarette in his hand under his feet, stamped it out, gulped, and smiled gloomily. “From what Marvin said just now, Jonathan seems to have found someone with the right bone marrow for Credence’s daughter. Do they think that they can successfully place it inside Belle’s body? How naive.”
Wilson glanced at Jeremy’s crooked collar and unbuttoned shirt. He could feel a growing sense of murderous intent. He took a deep breath, exhaled, and asked, “Boss, are you saying that..”
“Go and find that person.”
Jeremy didn’t explain his plan. He only narrowed his eyes and revealed an extremely lazy smile from his cold thin lips. “After that, bribe them with a large amount of money.”
“Who would that person be?”
Wilson looked at his boss with admiration and doubt.
Jeremy slowly spat out a familiar name from his malicious lips.
Wilson immediately came to his senses and gave Jeremy a thumbs up to flatter him. “Alright boss, I’ll get right on them!”
“F*ck off and do that right now. If you can’t complete this task, then chop off your own head for me!”
Jeremy turned around and strode out of the bathroom. His face was dark, but he was smiling maniacally without restraint.
He really wanted to see Credence finished once and for all!
