Scared to the point of weakening, he almost knelt down.
At this point, Charlie twisted his neck a bit. His fists like a thunderstorm aimed at Benjamin’s face.
"Let me show you what “wicked” really mean!"
"Punch, punch, punch"
The punches rained down on Benjamin’s face. In a few seconds, his face swelled up. But he dared not make a sound, clenching his mouth tightly in pain.
The two men he brought saw their boss being beaten up. They were about to help, but Benjamin suddenly reached out a hand to stop them, "Stand there!"
They looked at each other and could only stand still, watching their boss get beaten.
Charlie's anger wasn’t settled by just a few blows. He didn't stop until he had seriously injured Benjamin.
"Mr. Collins, I'm wicked, I've beaten you like this. What will you do to me?"
Two people helped Benjamin up. He was unable to steady himself. He extremely weak, yet he managed to put on a very ugly smile, "Not at all, I just fell by myself. It has nothing to do with you. Really, it's all my fault."
"You’re merely a weak old man who fears the strong!"
Charlie twisted his wrists a bit, "Then the matter of her pushing your daughter down the stairs..."
Benjamin got a fright and almost cried out, "No, there is no such thing! I misunderstood it. I’ll deal with the school and the police station. No one will blame her."
Charlie lifted his brow. His long fingers suddenly grasped Nancy's little hand.
Nancy was startled and reflexively tried to pull her hand back, but Charlie held it tighter.
Benjamin knew them. If the news spread abroad, it would cause them serious trouble!
