In a hotel within the province.
Ben Hull was resting on the bed in a suite that had been converted into a temporary ward.
His complexion was terrible after undergoing two operations. However, his gaze was even more terrifying.
Lisa Gardner and a man in his thirties, who looked a lot like Ben, were in the room as well.
This man was Hans Hull. He was Ben’s uncle.
Hans’ parents bore him at a relatively older age, so he had been spoilt since he was young. He had started looking for women when he was a teenager, and now that he was in his thirties, he had achieved nothing except for establishing himself as a renowned playboy.
Hans’ complexion was pale due to his constant indulgence in debauchery all year long. His body had long been a hollow shell that was dominated by women. His gaze shone as he stared at the photographs of Wendy Schuler in his hand with a lustful gaze.
“Are you all rubbish?” Ben yelled at a man standing by the door.
“The Hulls spend so much to keep the lot of you alive. If it weren’t for the Hulls, you would all have died from hunger on the streets. However, you can’t even manage to follow a normal woman. You even got discovered by them. Why are you so useless?!”
Ben started coughing violently after yelling at the man due to his overwhelming rage. He had a hideous scowl etched on his face.
Lisa sighed. “Don’t get all worked up, Benny. The doctor said that you have to control your emotions now,” she said.
A spiteful and vicious expression formed on Ben’s face. “This bunch of rubbish can’t even follow a mere woman around. How could I not be angry?” He asked.
The man standing by the door looked extremely guilty. “Sorry, Young Master. We didn’t expect a professional to appear in the ward. That person is really skilled. He saw through my disguise almost immediately. I had to leave first in order to not alert them,” he explained.
“Aaron, you’ve been with the Hulls for a decade, right?”
Hans nodded after getting a satisfactory response from Aaron. “That’s a good attitude. I don’t care about the method, I only care about the results. You’d better not disappoint me,” he said.
After speaking, Hans sneered coldly and gestured for Aaron to leave the room.
Hans stared at the photograph in his hands after Aaron left the room. “Ian and Lisa, the both of you have bestowed a huge gift upon me this time around. The moment I saw her, I felt like I had fallen in love,” he said.
Lisa cast a disgusted glance at Hans. Any woman with a decent mind would stay as far as possible as they could from a man like Hans Hull.
Nevertheless, in name, Hans Hull was still her “distant relative”. Therefore, she could only bite the bullet and tell him, “As long as you like it, Uncle.”
Hans guffawed loudly. “I like it! I like it way too much! I’ve had my way with so many women that I’d thought that no woman would be able to shock me anymore. However, the first time I set my eyes on her, I felt that all the women that I’ve had in the past were all garbage!” He remarked.
Ben smiled. He did not seem to mind at all.
