Yed never expected Ned to fight back, and a death aura spilled out of him right there.
Paula joined in right then. "Watch your tongue, Ned! That's your brother you're talking to!"
"Eunuch!" Hal snapped too. "How dare you snap at my daddy! Die!"
The boy leapt forward, ready to hit Ned, when he suddenly bellowed, "Enough!"
Then, seizing Hal by the collar, Ned slapped Hal so heavily the boy was bleeding from the mouth, and immediately bawling in terror. "Daddy! Help me…"
Yed's eyes went red as he bellowed, "Let him go! That's an order, or I'm killing you right now!"
"Are you showing your true colors now?!" Paula shrieked as well.
"Fuck off! I've had enough of either of you!" Ned bellowed and turned toward Lothar. "You saw what happened, Uncle Lothar! You can see who's not so keen to save, don't you?!"
Lothar's eyes flashed darkly in turn.
In a split second, he snatched Hal out of Ned's grasp, and…
Smack!
Smack!
With two resounding slaps, the spoiled brat was knocked out.
"Uncle Lothar?!" Yed's heart could break at the sight of Lothar's violent punishment. "He's just a child… He doesn't know anything! How could you do this?!"
Once he ensured that both men were keeping a distance, Lothar turned to Ned. "Where did your friend get that pill? Maybe you can contact him—ask if he has more. You can have a blank check as long as it saves your father."
That was when Paula chimed in, "Did you forget, Lothar? The boy is still being suspected of poisoning Ciril. We should think about this."
"Shut up!" Lothar wheeled on Paula right then, bellowing icily, "Do you have any ideas other than this? Or maybe you're just not keen to save Ciril?!"
"I…"
Paula kept quiet right then, knowing that she should not press her luck.
Ned whipped out his phone in turn. "I'll call Mr. Lawrence now, Uncle Lothar, but I'm unsure if he has more Yellow Shrives with him."
