Chapter 718 Am I Cruel
“Alex, aren’t you being too cruel?” Autumn was shaken when she heard the agonizing screams from afar.
Although she was the eldest daughter of the Jones family, she was still an ordinary girl at the end of the day. Hence, she was naturally unsettled by such a gruesome sight.
When Stefan heard his daughter’s words, he quickly pulled her aside and glared at her. Then he admonished her, “You shouldn’t get involved in such matters. Dr. Jefferson can make his own decisions.”
When she heard the painful screams, Autumn gritted her teeth. She felt as if she was right there watching them having their limbs chopped off.
At that very moment, Alex suddenly asked, “Do you think that I’m being cruel?”
Looking at Alex, Autumn didn’t say a word. However, the way she looked at him seemed to be telling him, “Yes, you really are.”
Usually, Alex couldn’t be bothered to explain, as he never cared about what others thought of him. But this time, he really wanted to exact revenge on behalf of the children who died a miserable death.
“The information provided by the Jones family has been crucial in Stanley’s rescue. Therefore, I would like to thank you for it.” At that moment, Alex bowed deeply to Stefan and Autumn.
He added, “You accused me of being cruel, but did you see the girl outside that had her guts dug out? And think about the countless children that died miserably in their hands. They had the children’s hands crudely tied in an underground basement, and they harvested the kids’ organs without any anesthetics or medical measures. I can’t even imagine how much pain those children had to suffer.”
Autumn hung her head after hearing Alex’s words. After all, Alex was meting out the punishment that the perpetrators deserved.
Alex was a fair man, and it was evident in how he had dealt with William.
On the way back, Stanley snuggled up in Alex’s arms, unwilling to be separated from him. Even in his sleep, he gripped onto Alex’s clothes tightly.
After thanking the two prominent families and Tyrael for helping him, Alex returned to Sakura Club with Stanley.
At that moment, Flynn was already awake. When he saw Alex returning with Stanley, his mind was finally put at ease.
After settling Stanley in, Alex gave Flynn a strict order.
He was to eradicate all the organ traffickers in Nebula City and provide charity funds to the families that had lost their children.
Meanwhile, in the Zucker residence, David was feeling upset given that he didn’t manage to find Alex’s son
first.
If he had managed to do so, he would be able to use Stanley to blackmail Alex into treating his manhood.
Now that the plan was foiled, his only option was to hope that Callum could create the drug that would cure him.
Just when he was pondering about the matter, he received a call from Callum.
Could it be that he has succeeded in his research?
