Cody walked towards him in anger and went up to him with a fierce punch, using his full strength.
Aaron wailed and was knocked to the ground.
"Bastard, I'm not too mean to you, am I!?"
"The year before, that son of bitch of Combs family kissed your then girlfriend. It was me who brought people to help you out. Afterwards, I was beaten by my grandfather. I stayed in the bed for three days. have I complained about you?"
"You're going to ruin my career and my life! Where exactly did I wrong you!?"
The more he talked, the angrier Cody became and he grabbed Aaron by the collar, lifted him up and punched him more times, specifically on the face.
Aaron's face was soon bloody and his blood was dripping from the corners of his mouth.
Lyra and Malcolm watched from a distance and did not obstruct.
It wasn't until Aaron could hardly stand it that Malcolm spoke up to stop it, "That's enough. Chad, take Mr. Cody away."
Chad immediately stepped forward and held Cody's arm from behind, forcibly dragging him away.
Cody was still not satisfied and kicked to Aaron's waist.
Aaron cried out in pain. He did not raise his eyes. His expression looked painful, and every now and then came the sound of inhaling.
Perhaps he was ashamed of being beaten up so hard, so he didn't say a word in rebuttal.
Lyra watched him quietly for a moment, observing all his expressions.
"Aaron, I can see that you have guilt in your heart towards Cody. You should not be the mastermind of this incident. Someone made you do it, didn't they?"
Aaron kept his head down and didn't say anything.
Malcolm's cold and hostile eyes looked askance at him, "I have checked your account statement. Yesterday you went to the bank to deposit 30 million, and today at noon to deposit another 50 million."
"But you haven't had any jobs for almost half a year. And your family hasn't given you any pocket money, so you think I'd wonder where you got the money from?"
Aaron was still silent and didn't say a word.
Malcolm looked to the right wall, with his eyes indicating him to look at the torture gadgets on the wall.
"This is the National Investigation Bureau's secret interrogation room for felons. For those things on the wall, even well-trained agents and spies can not withstand. You enjoy in affluence as the young master of your family. Do you think you can withstand it?"
Aaron was so scared that his face went pale and he was shaking even harder.
Cody gritted his teeth and said, "Better give him all of them! He requites kindness with enmity. He's a waste. Even breathing is a waste of resources!"
After Malcolm played the bad guy and Cody said those harsh words, Lyra decided to go up and be nice.
Her delicate face looked very kind and her voice was gentle, "Aaron, this sexy photo thing is not a trivial matter. If it is not handled well, Cody's life is over. He will be labeled as a lascivious and promiscuous bad artist, and he will never be able to turn over."
"You should be clear of his conduct. He always helped his friend or relatives even at the loss his life. He does his best to help and give. He has helped you many times before. This time you betrayed him, and the blow to him is huge."
Aaron lowered his eyes, not daring to look at Cody.
After doing the evil deed, he saw the overwhelming search on the Internet. During this afternoon, he felt guilt to death.
"I'm sorry. I didn't think this would hurt Cody so much."
He whimpered. The more he thought about it, the sadder he became, "I went to Narcy party some time ago and accidentally spent too much money. I didn't dare to ask my family for it, and someone suddenly found me."
Lyra's eyebrows tightened, "Who?"
