Chapter 4 The Consequences of Insulting My Woman
- A little while later, Brayden lifted Hope and inquired, "Who exactly is Oscar?"
- Abigail's eyes showed intense fear as she heard this.
- She replied, "Oscar Stoll is a big figure in the shady side of Baythorn. He commands thousands of subordinates and holds significant sway in Baythorn. Since you crossed him today, he will surely seek revenge ... "
- Brayden's expression darkened. Was this Oscar asking for trouble?
- Bang!
- With a loud crash, he slammed his hand on the table, causing it to splinter into fragments.
- "Anyone who dares to mistreat my woman, no matter who they are, will surely face death! By the way, didn't the Marleys take care of Hope's illness?"
- After all, Abigail was a member of the Marleys, and Hope was their eldest granddaughter. Could it be that the Marleys were ignoring her?
- Startled by Brayden's outburst, Abigail forced a sad smile and said, "To my family, Hope is nothing more than an embarrassment. They would be happy if she were gone."
- Hearing this, Brayden couldn't help but picture Hope being abused by the servant in front of the Marley Residence.
- He rose to his feet, his eyes burning with fierce determination.
- "Don't worry, I'll handle Hope's illness. From now on, I'll ensure you and our daughter are protected."
- ...
- Late that night, in a luxury villa in Baythorn, Oscar, with a bandage on his head, wore a scowling expression.
- "Abigail, you wr*tch, you dared to strike me. I'll make you regret ever crossing me. And that scoundrel, if I catch him, he won't get away!"
- Recalling how Brayden had shoved him aside, Oscar's face hardened with a cold, murderous intent.
- Bang!
- Bang!
- Bang!
- At that moment, several bodyguards were thrown into the room from outside.
- "You don't need to search for me. I'm here now!"
- With that, Brayden entered through the villa's front door.
- Upon seeing Brayden, Oscar's expression shifted dramatically. He gritted his teeth and demanded, "How did you get in here?"
- Brayden casually sat down on the sofa and smirked, "Didn't you notice? I fought my way in!"
- Outside the villa, there were dozens of bodyguards, all retired elite soldiers. Had they all been defeated by the person standing before me?
- With this thought, Oscar couldn't help but feel a twinge of apprehension.
- He asked, "Who exactly are you?"
- "I'm Brayden Gatlin, Abigail's husband!"
- Oscar responded, "Oh, so you're the son-in-law who joined the Marleys five years ago ... "
- Oscar was taken aback by his words.
- This loser is back?
- "Hahaha!"
- Oscar suddenly erupted into laughter.
- "I was expecting someone else, but it's just you, worthless fool! I was planning to come after you, but I didn't think you'd come to me. Tonight, you're not leaving this place."
- Brayden narrowed his eyes, his expression one of amusement. "Oh really?"
- Thump! Thump! Thump!
- At that moment, a flurry of footsteps approached.
- Hundreds of thugs wielding machetes and sticks stormed in from outside.
- These individuals were all Oscar's subordinates.
- As the hundreds of thugs flooded into the villa, they quickly surrounded Brayden.
- Oscar rose to his feet, laughing with arrogance. "Hahaha, are you scared now? Today, I'll make sure you have no place to hide!"
- Despite the intimidating number of thugs encircling him, Brayden remained composed.
- He said coolly, "Is this what you call your strength? You mistreated my woman, so here's what you'll do: kneel and bow to me three times, then break your own hands and feet. Only then might I consider letting you go."
- Oscar was stunned, staring at Brayden as if he were insane.
- "Are you out of your mind? Can't you see my men? How dare you speak to me like that? You're asking for trouble!" Oscar scoffed. "Get him! Show him what I'm capable of."
- "Understood!"
- At Oscar's order, the hundreds of thugs armed with machetes charged at Brayden.
- Broom!
- Suddenly, the sound of a helicopter could be heard from outside.
- Oscar looked up and saw dozens of helicopters hovering over the villa.
- Then, fully armed soldiers began to descend from the helicopters.
- Thousands of soldiers landed from the helicopters, encircling the entire villa.
- The hundreds of thugs stared in shock, too intimidated to act.
- A middle-aged man in a military uniform, adorned with four gold stars on his shoulder, entered the villa.
- This man, known as Tiger, was one of the five top military leaders under Brayden.
- "Captain, I apologize for my tardiness!"
- Tiger approached Brayden, showing great respect.
- Brayden gestured dismissively, "Remove all this garbage and pass it to the local police team. Let them handle it."
- "Understood!" Tiger responded.
- With a wave of Tiger's hand, a large number of armed soldiers advanced.
- The hundred thugs didn't dare to act, dropping their weapons and surrendering without resistance.
- Oscar was already dumbfounded.
- "Who are you, really?" he asked, pointing at Brayden with a look of shock.
- "Could you be the first God Warrior of Wesnia who has just arrived at Baythorn today?"
- A sudden, astounding realization struck Oscar.
- As this thought hit him, his face drained of color.
- He fell to the ground and was overwhelmed with disbelief.
- "It can't be true. How could the first God Warrior of Wesnia possibly be the Marleys' son-in-law?"
- Despite his reluctance to accept it, the only person who could command dozens of helicopters, and thousands of armed soldiers, and was referred to as Captain by a four-star general was undoubtedly the Grim Reaper!
- When the Grim Reaper arrives, all nations yield!
- "It's too late for you to find out now!"
- Brayden, with a stern expression, approached Oscar slowly.
- Oscar quickly dropped to his knees, pleading to Brayden desperately, "I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were the Grim Reaper. Please spare my life ... "
- Slap!
- Brayden struck Oscar's face with force, knocking out all his teeth.
- "Did you think about this day when you mistreated my woman?"
- Slap!
- Another hard slap landed on Oscar's face, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood.
- "Is my woman someone you have the right to insult?"
- Slap!
- The third slap sent Oscar crashing to the ground, convulsing.
- "Remember, my woman is not to be disrespected!”
- After delivering the three slaps, Brayden didn't even glance back and walked away.
- Tiger looked at Oscar lying on the ground, bloodied, and said with disdain, "Clean this up. It's unacceptable to mistreat Captain's woman!"
- "Understood!"
- Soon, several soldiers came over and dragged Oscar away as if he were a dead dog.
- "Captain, Old Mr. Marley is celebrating his 80th birthday tomorrow at the Baythorn Royal Hotel, and here is their invitation," Tiger said.
- He came over and presented a golden invitation to Brayden.
- The Marleys, a second-tier family in Baythorn, now sought to invite the Grim Reaper to elevate their social standing!
- Brayden looked at the invitation and replied coldly, "Let the Marleys know that I will be at the birthday banquet tomorrow!"
- The Marleys had driven away Abigail's family and mistreated his daughter. This matter needed to be addressed.
- With that, he lifted his gaze, his eyes showing a trace of scornful coldness!
