Chapter 429
Kill Richard Hampton? Kill him?
Tiffany bit her tongue again and tried to break free mentally. Every cell in her body was resisting vehemently.
However, this command… these words were like a curse that swirled in her mind.
She felt her body moving despite having been weakened after the electric shock, and then… She accepted the dagger.
The dagger resembled a garter knife, and the sharpest edge was coated with a layer of lethal poison.
The alien command reverberated incessantly in Tiffany’s mind and almost crushed the last shred of her rationality. Tiffany grunted as blood dripped from the corner of her mouth. Her exquisite face was completely devoid of color.
‘Don’t listen, don’t listen. Please… she railed mentally.
Her entire body trembled as the command and her rationality played out a mental tug–of–war. Her head hurt so much that it felt like it was about to explode.
The pain was excruciating. Tiffany was on the verge of tears, and a cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
Felix gave a condescending smile and his heartless eyes did not show any pity. “You still want to fight to the death? You’re the same as before. You haven’t changed at all.”
Tiffany’s head was hurting so much that she did not hear what he said at all.
Just as she was trying to force the foreign consciousness out of her mind, Felix tightened his grip on her chin and forced her to look into his eyes again.
The almost soul–sapping hypnosis slowly ate away at Tiffany’s last shred of rationality.
“Go. Kill Richard Hampton,” Felix commanded.
“Yes…”
*****
Meanwhile, at the grand hall, Hank Hampton threw a massive tantrum. He picked on everyone and everything was an eyesore to him.
Whenever any bodyguard or waiter tried to pacify him, they would be scolded by the old man.
By the time Richard showed up, the old man was still yelling at people. In the end, Richard told John Ross crisply, “Throw him out.”
“Throw me out? How dare you! I’m your father!” Hank became more incensed.
However, Richard meant what he said. When he ordered his men to throw people out, he expected them to act immediately. “What are you waiting for?” Richard barked.
To stop things from spiraling out of control, John resisted the tremendous pressure from Richard and approached the old man to smooth things over. He asked, “Mr. Hank, who made you so angry on this fine day?”
In all fairness, although the old man was old–fashioned and had a bad temper, he was not the kind of person who would wantonly throw a tantrum regardless of the occasion, especially when the occasion was his son’s engagement party.
When he heard John’s inquiry, the old man snorted and said, “I think some people just don’t take me seriously. Our

offspring are already engaged, yet these people still don’t know how to come out and welcome me?”
By “these people,” Hank was referring to the Kelley family.
Since the two families were already connected by an engagement, the Kelleys should make some effort to contact him.
In particular, Charlie Kelley should still accom to be on equal footing.

However, the Kelley couple were nowhere to be seen.
Thinking that he had been snubbed, the cranky and stubborn old man was naturally angry.
After finding out what had upset the old man, John heaved a sigh of relief and tried to soothe him. “Gosh, here I was, wondering what could have upset you so much. Mr. Kelley must be in the grand hall now. You haven’t even entered the hall so why are you throwing a tantrum?”
John’s words unwittingly made Richard frown.
If John hadn’t mentioned this, he wouldn’t have noticed. Now that he thought about it, the Kelley couple weren’t in the grand hall either.
On such an important occasion, the couple would never leave for no reason. If that was the case…
Richard’s expression changed abruptly. He immediately ordered. “Check the surveillance cameras and look for the Kelleys!” After that, he strode to the suite.
However, the suite was empty. There was no sign of Tiffany at all.
The guests present did not know what had happened. They only knew that the entire hotel was suddenly put under lockdown. Countless well–trained bodyguards rushed in and they seemed to be looking for someone. They practically turned the whole hotel upside down.
Not surprisingly, John knew the gravity of the matter. He immediately checked all the hotel’s surveillance camera footage and found that Eric was taken away by a waiter at first. After that, the Kelley couple was led away. Lastly was Tiffany
All of them were led to one place, and that was the guest room at the back of the hotel.
Richard’s handsome face turned frosty and his eyes were shockingly icy. The sense of impending storm that his demeanor exuded made everyone shudder.
John’s knees almost gave way. He was the one who planned the security measures in this hotel. He thought that no one would have the guts to try and stir up trouble, yet in spite of his meticulous planning, he still overlooked a minor detail.
“Mr. Hampton, I…” Before he could say anything, Richard had stormed off to the aforementioned guest room.
When Richard kicked open the door of that guest room, he saw Tiffany standing in the center. At her feet, a few waiters were wailing on the ground. One of them even had his head smashed by an ashtray until he was covered in blood.
Richard could finally breathe easy again.
He strode up to Tiffany and hugged her. His voice was brimming with anxiousness. “Are you hurt?”
Tiffany slowly turned around. Her beautiful gown was a little dirty, and her exquisitely styled hair was a little messy. However, her beauty was not diminished and she was still dazzling.
What surprised Richard a little was that the moment Tiffany raised her head to look at him, her clear eyes glinted with a vixen–like glow. She appeared even more flirtatious than normal.

Richard’s eyes gradually darkened. He felt a little guilty fault.
