Chapter 131 The Reckoning of Blood

Whispers crept through the crowd as contemptuous eyes scanned Lauren.

Perfect, thought David, swelling with vindication.

You ungrateful b*tch. I grow you; I will break you.

“Past indulgences have spoiled you,” he thundered, puffing himself up like a grotesque toad. “But that shame ends today! A father’s duty is to correct his wayward child, even if I have to beat you senseless.”

While Alice rushed, she shouted at Lauren. “Lauric, please stop all this mess. Don’t make a fool of yourself!”

But before they reached Lauren, Josh and the chauffeur simultaneously kicked their knees out from under them.

David and Alice screamed and rushed to intervene, but security swarmed them both. Within seconds, they were face down on the marble, their limbs pinned like common criminals.

David was really angry.

I’m the Bennett family’s patriarchy! How dare they put me on my knees like that!

The chauffeur adjusted his cuff links. “Prevents repeat trespassing.

The captain’s pupils trembled.

Broke… broken?

The captain’s legs softened slightly as he gulped and spoke with difficulty, “This… This isn’t good, right? They are at least the chairman and madam of the Bennett Group ……

Before he could finish his words, the chauffeur coldly swept him a glance, and that look was like an ice blade, instantly sending chills down the security chief’s spine.

He realized that he had said the wrong thing and hurriedly shut up.

It was said that Mr. Brooker was ruthless in his methods,

but expect that even a small chauffeur would have

such a murderous aura.
