As time ticked by, Zayne and the rest continued kneeling on the ground. Even though their knees felt terribly painful, none of them dared to get back up.
It wasn't until twenty minutes later that Tommy finally barged into the room.
Charlie hurried forward to welcome him. “Mr. Lewis.”
When Zayne and the others heard that he had arrived, they looked up one by one. The moment their gaze finally fell upon Tommy, all of them almost fainted in horror.
None of them had seen him before. But when they did, his bloodthirsty aura was enough to overwhelm them with fear.
However, Tommy ignored Charlie as he fixed his gaze on Jared.
When he saw the knowing look Jared gave him, Tommy refrained from acknowledging him.
After all, Hilda and Maria were present. If they knew Jared was involved with Tommy, Jared's parents would definitely find out too.
Looking at the group kneeling on the ground, Tommy's face turned grim before giving Charlie a tight slap. “Didn't I tell you to sit tight and wait?”
Charlie was utterly confounded by the slap. As for Tommy, he knelt down and helped Zayne back up to his feet.
“I have failed to discipline my men. Please forgive me.” After that, he turned to Charlie and asked, “What happened today?”
Charlie narrated the entire incident without holding anything back.
When he heard that it was Josh who started it, Tommy's expression darkened. He then glanced toward Josh who was still grimacing on the ground.
When Josh saw the murderous look in Tommy's eyes, he gritted his teeth in his attempt to stand up and explain. “Mr.
Lewis, I—”
Tommy wasn't bothered to listen to Josh's explanation. Instead, he ordered, “Break all his limbs and throw him out. He is forbidden from stepping foot in here going forward.”
The moment they heard Josh's agonizing cries, Zayne and the others peed their pants again. The cruelty Tommy had demonstrated struck fear into their hearts.
