Chapter 978
Upon hearing the command, the subordinate immediately went forward and began to unpack the package.
What could this possibly be?” the subordinate said.
As Robert looked at the rectangular package, he felt a vague sense of unease.
Ever since Steve arrived at Lightdom City, Robert’s status had been plummeting rapidly.
If this were in the past, who would dare to throw things at his mansion?
Now that various influential figures had arrived, his residence had been attacked several times.
Three days ago, a few scions from Ulinas also came to his residence and made some humiliating gestures.
In addition, some people also threw rotten tomatoes and eggs at his mansion, saying derogatory words and threatening to get rid of him for the sake of all people. They saw him as a scourge.
Not only did those scions from Ulinas say such things to him, but even some ordinary commoners dared to curse at him.
Robert was furious when faced with these vulgarities and insults.
However, he did not dare to act rashly.
Being an old fox, Robert thought a lot and naturally understood that these commoners were merely pawns manipulated by certain individuals.
Once he harmed those commoners, those scions who were eager to accomplish something noteworthy would have a legitimate reason to eliminate him and take his assets for themselves.
After all, in these few days, Steve had received many influential and prominent families from Lightdom City, except him.
Steve was clearly treating him as an enemy.
“Damn it.” Robert said. “When will Justin publicly announce that I am associated with them?” He clenched his fist, feeling very annoyed.
As the underground king of Lightdom City, he had never felt so frustrated before.
Now, he only needed Justin to say something. He would then have powerful backing.
While Robert was thinking, his subordinate had already appeared and completely unpacked the package.
After seeing the contents of the package, the subordinate’s expression changed drastically. He was so frightened that he fell
to the ground. He said with a trembling voice, “Oh no, Mr. Bard. Take, take a look…”
As Robert leaned in to take a look, his pupils also contracted intensely. He was extremely terrified.
The person in the package was Justin, whom he had been thinking about just now.
At this moment, Justin was in a daze. His eyes were especially dull. Drool was dripping from the corners of his mouth.
He kept nibbling on his hand and muttered to himself like a fool. He said, “Yummy. Haha. Yummy…
While speaking, he continued to forcefully gnaw on his own fingers, biting them until they were bloody
“Why is he like this?” Robert said.
When Robert saw Justin’s condition, his expression changed. He hurriedly squatted down and carefully examined Justin’s body.
He was injured.
There was also a wound on his head.
However, the clothes were intact.
This meant that Justin had been beaten up by his opponent in an instant.
“Boss, are you alright?” Robert said as he tapped Justin’s face and kept calling out.
However, no matter how he shouted, Justin could not recover from that dazed state. He still looked like he was in a dare.
“Quick, send Boss to the hospital for a checkup, Robert said. His expression changed.
Justin encountered problems in Robert’s territory. If the Bennett family were to hold him accountable for what happened to Justin, he would definitely be in deep trouble and face severe consequences.
When the subordinate heard that, he did not dare to be negligent. He quickly carried Justin and immediately took him out
of the house.
Robert did not dare to be negligent either. He quickly walked out and followed his subordinate to escort Justin to the best.
