Chapter 56 - : Paying People Back in Their Own Coin
Bryce’s legs instantly went weak, and he knelt on the ground.
Everything in front of him made him suspect that his world had become fantastical. Brad Douglas is actually kneeling in front of Lucas?!
Lucas glanced at Bryce indifferently, as though he was looking at something dead.
He looked back at Douglas, who was lying on the ground. “You said he came to you for help? In that case, was he the one who instigated you to handle the incident six years ago?”
“Which incident?” Douglas was a bit confused for a moment. Over the years, Bryce had approached him and asked him to do many sordid things. All of a sudden, he couldn’t guess which one Lucas was referring to.
“Cheyenne Carter, the Brilliance Corporation,” Lucas reminded snappily.
“Oh!” As soon as he heard Cheyenne’s name, Douglas instantly remembered and nodded frantically.
“Yes, Bryce made me do it. At that time, he wanted to encroach on the Brilliance Corporation and snatch it away from Cheyenne Carter, so he came to me and asked me to help him get some drugs. Afterward, due to a freak combination of factors, Cheyenne got involved with a lowly chauffeur. Later on, Cheyenne became pregnant, and Bryce got us to go make trouble. That woman was so angry that she ended up going into premature labor, resulting in them taking over the Brilliance Corporation.”
Douglas was afraid of Lucas and almost immediately answered all the questions asked.
Lucas’s face got increasingly gloomy. At the end, he began glaring daggers while smashing his fists on the wall, causing a large cobweb-like crack to appear on the finely-furnished wall with a pit the size of a basin in the middle.
Douglas instantly fell silent, not daring to continue.
Meanwhile, Bryce’s fear intensified, and he almost got shocked into peeing his pants!
Douglas was clearly terrified of Lucas too!
Lucas and Jordan had clearly attacked the henchmen clutching their broken wrists in the room!
In that case, w-what will happen to me?
At the thought of how much he had been bullying Cheyenne over the past few days, the insults he had hurled at Lucas, the misdeeds he had done to Cheyenne back then, and how he had just tried to set up Charlotte…
Bryce’s heart immediately began ricocheting violently as cold sweat surged out of his body. He felt a warm and moist sensation in his lower body.
At this moment, Bryce recalled everything that Dominic had said to him over the phone earlier: “Lucas Gray has gone to look for you. Hurry up and leave. Don’t let him find you!”
Now, he finally knew why Dominic gave him this warning. It was because Lucas was really too terrifying!
At this moment, Bryce was full of regret!
He regretted not listening to his grandfather’s warning and not bringing Charlotte back home earlier. He even regretted digging his own grave by provoking and offending Lucas.
“Lucas, I know I did something wrong. Please let me off…” Bryce pleaded spinelessly.
Lucas glared at him coldly and sent him flying with a kick. He slammed against the door frame and immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
Then Lucas kicked Douglas until he wailed endlessly.
Of course, this was the result of Lucas restraining his strength. Otherwise, both of them would have died long ago.
Lucas obviously wouldn’t let them die, but he didn’t plan to let them off either.
“Hmph, don’t you guys like playing such tricks? Go ahead and have a taste of your own medicine then!” Lucas turned his head to face Jordan. “Carry them both to the room at the side and feed them their own drugs. Remember to record a video.”
Thinking about that image, Jordan couldn’t help but shudder in disgust!
However, in order to deal with such people, they had to pay them back in their own coin!
Soon, Jordan enthusiastically carried both of them to the room next door, bringing with him the camera and the bottle of medicine.
Before long, bizarre sounds of pain mixed with pleasure came from the room next door.
The henchmen on the ground couldn’t help but shiver when they heard the sounds. They didn’t even dare to shriek in pain!
This man is too terrifying!
Soon, Jordan came out with the camera.
“Damn it! It was such an eyesore! I have to wash my eyes when I get back!” Jordan exclaimed with a look of disgust. “Lucas, what do we do with this?”
“Put it on the internet with their names spelled out. Make sure their faces are in HD.”
“Yes!” Jordan put the camera away excitedly.
The henchmen were frightened. Too ruthless!
Not only did they film such a video and decide to put it on the internet, but they also wanted to make sure their faces were in HD and clearly seen. The two of them were going to be shamed thoroughly, and they would never have the cheek to face others again! Even their families would be disgraced by them!
Lucas looked at the group of horrified henchmen and barked, “Get lost!”
The henchmen immediately stopped rolling around and wailing, as if their pressure had suddenly been released. They hurriedly got up and scrambled out of the room in panic, fearing that Lucas would change his mind if they were too slow.
After everyone was gone, Lucas walked over to the bed. He frowned and draped a large bathrobe over Charlotte’s translucent and revealing nightgown.
Lucas was utterly disgusted by Bryce and Douglas’s behavior!
As men, they actually resorted to using such despicable tricks on women. Not only did they ruin the women, they even recorded videos and photos to threaten them. They were worse than beasts!
Back then, they successfully set up Cheyenne, but something went wrong in between, and Lucas was made to take responsibility for her. Otherwise, Cheyenne wouldn’t have had her company taken away from her due to her premature labor. Instead, she would have had explicit photos taken and used against her. Her life would have been ruined.
Charlotte ended up in such a setup today too. If he hadn’t rushed here in time, she would have really had her body and reputation tarnished by Douglas. Charlotte might not be able to endure having the explicit photos taken while Cheyenne would be sad for life because of what happened to her sister!
They deserved to be punished harshly!
Taking a deep breath and forcing himself to suppress the anger within, Lucas bent over and pinched Charlotte’s temples skillfully.
This was a method he had learned in the military, which was very effective for awakening unconscious people.
Indeed, after Lucas pressed a few times, Charlotte’s eyelashes fluttered, and she slowly opened her eyes.
Charlotte clearly still hadn’t gotten a clear idea of the situation yet.
The moment before she passed out, she was still sitting in Sophie’s car. Afterward, something seemed to have rammed into her…
Charlotte blinked, sat up, and then realized that the bathrobe draped over her had already slid off, revealing her translucent nightgown. To her horror, she wasn’t wearing anything underneath!
“Ah!” Charlotte screamed. She covered her chest and slapped Lucas, who was in front of her. “You’re shameless!”
