Chapter 562
“Wait!” Severin stopped Roland immediately. “Simply breaking their limbs isn’t enough. If you truly
comprehend justice, you will kill Shayna, Humbert, and Geoffrey! Once they’re dead, you can tell your hall
master to come over!”
“My friend, the moon is out and it’s getting very late. Are you sure you want our hall master to come over? Will it be all right if you leave this matter to me alone? I do hope you’ll show some courtesy to me!” Roland’s expression sank and he cupped his hands in a gesture of politeness toward Severin. After thinking for a moment, he asked, “I have no issues killing Humbert and this woman, but Geoffrey has contributed a lot to Equus Hall. Could you allow me to spare his life?”
“No!” Severin refused without a second thought. “You’re lucky that I’m willing to spare your life because you were being deceived by them. Letting these three b*stards go free is absolutely out of the question!” “S-S-Severin…I was wrong. I know what I did was wrong! I won’t do it again! Please don’t kill me!” As soon as Shayna heard the conversation between Severin and Roland, she knew that her death was all but certain. In her moment of desperation, she knelt on the ground and begged for mercy bitterly.
After Severin heard that, he sneered and said, “Oh, Shayna. Didn’t we already give you a chance before? You didn’t appreciate it at all. We’ve already spared you and told you to leave, but you decided it was a good idea to bring Humbert over to cause trouble!”
A sudden idea popped up in Humbert’s mind and he walked over to punch Shayna in the chest.
“Y-you!” Shayna’s body flew back and fell to the ground. She looked at Humbert in disbelief and breathed her last breath after several convulsions.
After killing Shayna, Humbert knelt and said to Severin, “This woman instigated me, and I was tricked by her deceitfulness. Please spare me too!”
Severin laughed when he heard that. “Hahaha! Do you think I’d do that? Let’s put aside what happened today and just consider what Wesley said earlier. You deserve to be punished for the unforgivable things you did to those twins!”
“Mister Roland, help us! We beg you! Help up!” Geoffrey’s face was pale with fright as he knelt on the ground.
“Those who sin shall not be allowed to live. You’ve done so many things that are reprehensible in the eyes of gods and men. No one can save you now. You should’ve thought about the consequences before you committed all those evil deeds.” Roland shook his head helplessly and there was a twinge of disappointment in his eyes. He thought all along that Geoffrey was a good person, but little did he know that Geoffrey had the heart of a beast. Upon realizing that there Severin was not someone he could negotiate easily with, he could only bear the heartbreak and kill the two people.
