The Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 216

Chapter 216 A Coward

“Go on! Hit me if you dare! If you can’t kill me, perhaps you should change your last name!” Raylee vented her anger without any restraint. “At home, you’re nothing but a burden, and outside, you are a coward who even dares to lay hands on a woman! You’ve spent your whole life without any real skills, and your only talent is distorting the truth and wrongly accusing others! Having grown up as you have, it seems like you’re the universe’s idea of a sick joke. People like you, without the protection of your family, are nothing but a worthless piece! With so many people dying every day, why haven’t you been one of them? Your existence is a mere waste of air, and your death would be a waste of land!”

After hearing a barrage of angry words from Raylee, Samuel was thoroughly irritated.

Without any further ado, he rushed forward to pull Raylee away, his fist immediately greeting Percival’s face.

Percival was utterly baffled by their conversation.

The moment before the fist could land, he caught hold of Samuel’s wrist, saying irritably, “Samuel, calm down. Who are you calling an adulterer? On what grounds are you accusing me? Who exactly have I betrayed?”

“Still here pretending, are you?” Samuel gritted his teeth, glaring at him relentlessly. “You thought you could pull the wool over everyone’s eyes, but you didn’t expect to get caught by me, did you? Tell me. How long have you and Raylee been secretly seeing each other? A year? Six months? Or just a month? I’m warning you. Raylee is my sister. How dare you mess with her? You must be tired of living! Don’t think just because you’re Casimir’s childhood friend, I wouldn’t dare to lay a hand on you!”

A wild fury coursed through every vein in Samuel’s body.

In the next moment, he clenched his other fist, brutally striking the corner of Percival’s mouth.

Percival was still in a state of confusion.

Caught off guard, Percival was punched. He then touched his face and realized he was bleeding. Such a ruthless move!

At that point, Samuel was still fuming. He raised his fist, ready to throw a punch once mo

more.

“Aren’t you done? Well, then. Don’t blame me for losing my patience!” Percival skillfully dodged his attack, patiently waiting for the right moment. Once he saw his chance, he struck a forceful blow to a pressure point on Samuel’s neck.

“Argh!” Samuel suddenly let out a cry of distress.

The intense pain in that moment nearly sent him to meet his maker.

He grimaced, clutching his neck, a flicker of almost imperceptible fear flashing across his face. He was the very picture of a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

Percival warned him in a deep tone, “I’m skilled in both modern medicine and traditional medicine, and incidentally, I have some combat arts skills. Mr. Goodridge, if you insist on courting disaster, I wouldn’t mind showing you a taste of my capabilities.”

Samuel dared not move forward. Instead, he took two steps back and stared intently at Percival.

That previous moment had caused him quite a significant amount of pain.

It felt as though he had been abruptly struck by lightning, a fierce surge of electricity coursing through his most sensitive

nerve.

That was a pain that originated deep within the bones.

Even until then, he hadn’t been able to recover.

He couldn’t bear to go through it all over again.

Watching Samuel scared out of his wits, Raylee felt an immense sense of satisfaction.

She had initially picked up a brick, ready to send Samuel straight to heaven, but there was no need for that anymore.
