Chapter 643
Naturally, the bald men obeyed Elodia’s commands. When they heard it, they wasted no time searching all over Benjamin to find his phone, which he had on him. Then, they untied his hands and demanded, “Kid, did you hear that? Transfer all of the money.”
After that, one of the bald men turned and asked Elodia, Miss Hudson, where do you want the money to be transferred?”
Elodia instantly provided him with her bank account number.
All of the money spent by the Hudson family was supposedly hers.
She vowed to get everything that they had taken away from her back.
She was able to put what had already been spent out of her mind, but there was no way she was going to give the Hudson family a single penny under any circumstances.
By fixing a murderous glare on Elodia, Benjamin earned himself another thudding slap from the bald man. This time, he seemed to have learned his lesson since he transferred 4,000 dollars to Elodia’s account.
“I only have this much money. That’s all I’ve got!” Benjamin declared.
The bald man, of course, didn’t believe him. He bellowed, “Guys, since he can’t be obedient, let’s chop off his tongue first so that he won’t lie.” In an instant, two men of the Skydragon moved forward, blades drawn. They started moving in the direction of Benjamin’s mouth.
Clearly, they wouldn’t do any actual harm to him.
Benjamin, stricken with terror, pleaded, Don’t cut my tongue off! I meant I have money with me. I’ll transfer everything to Elodia.”
With his hands trembling furiously, tears welled up in his eyes as he begged Elodia, “I messed up big time. You’re my sister. You’ll definitely forgive me, right? You’re my sister, and I’m the only man in the Hudson family. As long as I transfer everything I have to you, you will let me go, right?”
“You’re the man of the family. So you’re worth a lot of money?” Elodia mocked.
While Benjamin was begging continuously, his eyes flashed a menacing glint, but he continued, “I don’t worth anything to you, Elodia. You’re doing much better than we are now. You just want your money back, right? I’ll give everything to you. I won’t hold even a penny with me. Elodia, let me go! I am begging you!”
Benjamin was reduced to tears. He would’ve been on his knees if Skydragon’s men weren’t keeping him up.
Elodia, on the other hand, didn’t fail to catch the depraved lunacy that lurked within his eyes.
Her eyes sparkled with sarcasm and her grin broadened as she assured him, “Absolutely! I promise to let you go if you give me all your money.”
Benjamin immediately asked, Are you going to keep your word?”
“Believe it or not, it’s up to you. You said it yourself. I just want my money back,” Elodia shrugged.
Benjamin believed her words almost in an instant.
He had the impression that even if someone as spineless and impotent as Elodia managed to stand up on her own, she still wouldn’t dare to do any harm to him. After all, she wanted nothing more than to have all her money back.
Upon learning Elodia’s true motive, the Hudsons felt an instant sense of relief.
Afterward, Benjamin continued to transfer the rest of his funds to Elodia.
After making a few more transfers, he was going to say he was out of money.
The bald man turned to one of his minions and said, “Check the kid’s account. If he dares to leave a dollar in his account, cut off his tongue and chop off his hands and feet.”
She had indeed planned to leave him without a single dime.
Benjamin’s hand trembled at the sound of that and muttered, I won’t hold any money. I won’t hold even a single penny.”
Even as he was saying it, he realized he was out of luck. He gave Elodia all that he had in his account.
He made a solemn vow to himself that if he made it out of here alive today, he would absolutely find a way to make Elodia pay back twice as much in the future.
He cast a forlorn glance toward Elodia while he asked, “I’m done. Can I go now, Elodia?”
He wasn’t an unattractive guy. He never failed to display a pitiful expression. That was why their parents often took it out on Elodia first when they were kids, even if he or she was at fault. Then, they would give Benjamin a big hug and tell him he was their darling.
Benjamin excelled at playing the victim and winning over the hearts of everyone around him.
Elodia felt disgusted at the sight of him, but her expression remained unchanged as she said, “That’s enough. Get lost. I don’t want to see you ever again.”
She tried her best to act tough.
The bald man was shocked. “Miss Hudson, you’re really going to let him go?”
Elodia nodded.
The bald man and the others didn’t want to, but this was Elodia’s business, and they had no business getting involved.
They were required to comply with all that Elodia ordered them to do as per Miss Hudson’s commands.
Therefore, they released Benjamin.
The bald man pointed at the other young men at the corner and asked Elodia, “Miss Hudson, what about these people?”
Elodia glanced at them and said, “Beat them up.”
Despite his disappointment at having to release Benjamin, the bald guy relished the opportunity to finally give the young men a good beating.
Not long after that, those young men were scattered all over the room, with bruises covering every part of their bodies. Then, they managed to stand up and stumbled away.
As of right now, they despised Benjamin to the core.
