Chapter 44
Listening to Gavin’s questioning. Dexter’s gaze kept flickering.
Gavin could clearly see a trace of panic in Dexter’s eyes.
Gavin was sure that Dexter must know something about the massacre of the Clifford family back then.
However, Dexter had no intention of answering Gavin’s question. Instead, he immediately changed the subject and shouted loudly.
“You actually laid hands on me? I am the commander of the Southland Army in Brookspring Battlefield. This is tantamount to declaring war against our entire Southland Army!”
Hearing Dexter’s words, Gavin knew that Dexter definitely had no intention of answering his question.
However, Gavin did not intend to spare Dexter’s life.
If Dexter wouldn’t talk, there would surely be someone else who would.
If no one told him, Gavin would simply follow the path of the Southland Army and fight his way through.
In the end, he could personally ask the Southland Overlord mentioned by Dexter.
Gavin looked at Dexter in front of him and shook his head slowly.
He said, “I’m sorry, you’ve given the wrong answer. Now, you can only die.”
Hearing this, Dexter’s gaze tightened, and he immediately exclaimed in shock, “How can you still want to kill me?
“Tve already told you! I am the commander of the Southland Army in Brookspring Battlefield!”
He had said this three times already, right?
How could Gavin not hear him?
But did Gavin care?
Since Dexter wouldn’t answer, Gavin didn’t want to waste any more words on him. He directly charged toward Dexter. Dexter was horrified and roared at Gavin.
“You can’t kill me! If you kill me, you’ll be hunted down by the entire Southland Army for the rest of your life. When they find out I’m dead, you…”
“Bang!” A muffled sound rang out.
Dexter’s voice stopped abruptly.
Standing in place, Dexter’s face turned pale, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. He lowered his head in agony.
At his chest, there was now a massive cavity.
The heart inside the cavity had been completely pulverized.
This was all the result of a single punch from Gavin.
With a thud, Dexter’s limp body slowly fell to the ground. His wide eyes were still filled with terror, refusing to close even though he was dead.
After doing all this, Gavin stood in place and slowly looked up at the somewhat dim moonlight in the sky.
In an instant, his figure flickered, and he returned to the ruins of the Clifford family villa.
Looking at the densely packed graves in the ruins, a faint mist filled Gavin’s eyes. He clenched his fists.
He said slowly, “The lost souls of the Clifford family, rest assured.
“I will avenge your grudges.
“Regardless of who is involved, what kind of power they have, I will make them all come to the afterworld and personally make amends to you!”
Boom! A shocking thunderclap resounded.
In the moment that Gavin’s words fell, the previously cloudless night sky suddenly burst open with a bolt of lightning
Following that, a torrential ram poured down.
The raindrops fell densely on Gavin’s body. It was unclear whether it was rain or tears on his face.
However, lus gaze was more determined than ever before
After some time, in Robert’s SUV
Gavin gently held the asleep Kris. Robert drove them toward the upscale apartment Gavin had rented.
As for the critically wounded Scott from earlier, Gavin locked him in the underground chamber of the Clifford family
ruins.
Scott certainly deserved to die, but Gavin believed that the person to kill Scott shouldn’t be him but Kris.
It was just that Kris had suffered tremendous mental trauma, and everything would have to wait until she recovered. Before long, Robert sent Gavin and Kris back to the apartment..
Originally, Robert wanted to accompany Gavin upstairs, but he was declined by Gavin.
Gavin carried Kris and returned to the unit he had rented.
When the door opened, his younger sister Zoe and fiancée Layla were waiting anxiously at the door.
When they saw the woman in Gavin’s arms, the two of them exclaimed at the same time.
“Kris!”
Kris was Gavin’s aunt, so she was also their family.
The two girls rushed to Gavin’s side, their faces filled with shock. They stared at the scars on Kris’s body in disbelief.
Tears of heartache immediately flowed out of the two girl’s eyes.
Zoe looked at Gavin and spoke in shock, “Gavin, what happened to Kris? How did she end up like this?”
Seeing the two girls cared so much for Kris, Gavin felt their pain deeply. His face carried a trace of sadness as he shook his head gently.
As if startled by the girls’ gasps, or perhaps after a long sleep, Kris slowly opened her eyes.
When she saw herself lying in Gavin’s arms, there was no sign of panic in her eyes. Instead, there was a sense of reassurance. Watching Kris open her eyes, Gavin gently released her and let her stand on the floor.
Zoe and Layla also surrounded Kris with concern.
Zoe asked, “Kris, how are you? You must have suffered a lot!”
They were all Kris’s relatives, but when Kris saw the two girls, her eyes suddenly filled with intense fear. She tightly gripped Gavin’s sleeve, hiding behind him, and her body trembled slightly.
It seemed that apart from Gavin, no one else could provide her with a sense of safety.
Watching this scene, the hearts of Zoe and Layla ached even more.
They looked at Gavin with eyes brimming with tears.
Zoe asked, “Gavin, what has happened to Kris?”
Layla added, “Why doesn’t she recognize us?”
“Well…
Gavin let out a soft sigh and said, “In this past week, Kris has endured unimaginable torment, and her mental state has suffered immense damage. Now, she’s like a walking corpse.”
“What?” Upon hearing Gavin’s words, the grief on Zoe and Layla’s faces became even more overwhelming
“How could this happen? How could it be like this?”
“Is it because of those bastards from the Holman family?”
Zoe clenched her fists angrily and exclaimed.
“Those bastards from the Holman family. They’ve already wiped out our Clifford family. Aren’t they satisfied yet? Why do they still torture Kris? Kris isn’t even a part of the Clifford family!”
Zoe wept and fell into Layla’s embrace. Layla gently patted Zoe to offer comfort without saying a word.
Watching his beloved family in this sorrowful state, Gavin clenched his fists tightly once again and made a declaration firmly
“Rest assured. The Clifford family is our enemy. I will send them all to hell, one by one!”
In order to help Kris adapt sooner, Gavin gently held her delicate hand. His voice was gentle
“Kris, don’t be afraid. They are all our relatives”
He pointed to Zoe and said, “This is Zoe, my younger sister. Do you still remember her? This is Layla. She And I am Gay. You should still remember us, right?”
