When the ruffian noticed how polite Nicholas was treating Skylar, his face turned even paler while his body trembled. Suddenly, just like Nicholas, he knelt in front of Skylar despite his stinging pain.âMrâ¦
Mr. Stone, Iâm really sorry for my insolence and itâs due to that that Iâve offended you by accident. I⦠I wonât ever do that again, please find it in your heart to forgive me!â The ruffian begged for his life.It did not take long for the ground to be stained by his blood. However, he dared not stop begging for his life when Skylar was still silent.He understood how horrible of a predicament he was in when Skylar was able to get Nicholas to kneel and yet he wanted to murder Skylarâs father just moments ago.Skylar glanced at the ruffian and his goons before ordering Dianne, âLock these maniacs up in jail!âAs soon as the ruffian heard that, he was beaming with joy since Skylarâs decision to spare his life would be the greatest news for him. Going to jail was nothing to people like him and he would be a new man as soon as he was released from prison.âThank you for sparing my life, Mr. Stone. Thank youâ¦â The ruffian thanked Skylar.However, before he could finish, Skylar interjected, âYou can leave this man here.
Anyone who wants my father dead has no right to live.ââYes sir!â Dianne replied.Hearing that turned the ruffianâs face pale as waves of despair completely engulfed him. However, Skylar could not be bothered to give him the opportunity to beg for his life again as he told Nathaniel, âLet me get you home, dad. Donât worry, I will make sure that everyone here gets compensated reasonably. Or else, Iâll make sure the person in charge will spend the rest of his life in prison!âHearing this terrified Nicholas as he frantically swore to Nathaniel. âDonât worry, I promise that every person here will be compensated ten percent more than what was initially agreed upon. Youâre injured, so just head on home with Mr.
Stone. Iâll bring you your money myself later.âNathaniel nodded after hearing that the issue had been resolved. After that, he followed Skylar to the jeep parked nearby.Meanwhile, the other protestors looked glad after hearing what Nicholas said earlier.However, no one noticed the menacing aura emanating from the ruffianâs body when Skylar and Nathaniel walked by him.In a desperate attempt, he leapt up from the ground while screaming, âYou b*stard! Since youâre unwilling to spare my life, Iâll take you down with me today!âEveryone was shocked when the ruffian suddenly pointed a gun at Skylarâs head.All of this happened way too quickly as no one expected that a ruffian would have a real gun with him. When he was about to pull the trigger, one of the protestors yelled, âLook out, Nathaniel, Skylar!ââLook out? Can he even dodge my bullet?â The ruffian scoffed before pulling the trigger.
