Chapter 1769 by Marina Vittori
An Understated Dominance
Under the shroud of midnight, a sleek black SUV screeched to a sudden stop at the Vern residence.
The car door swung open, tossing out a weighty burlap sack saturated in blood, potentially containing a person.
âHey! What the heck are you doing?â The guards stationed at the Vern residence entrance swiftly detected the anomaly and shouted at the vehicle.
The black SUV roared to life, swiftly departing from the scene.
The guards cautiously approached, nudging the sack with their feet. The burlap sack quivered, revealing a face stained with blood. It was Russo who was severely injured and hovering on the brink of death.
âH-Help⦠S-Save me P-Please save me⦠âRusso groaned, his life hanging by a thread. Upon closer scrutiny, the guardsâ expressions underwent a dramatic shift. âItâs Mr. Russo! Quick, get him to the hospital!â
Without hesitation, the guards rushed the critically injured Russo to the hospital for immediate attention.
Soon, the entire Vern family was plunged into turmoil. In the predawn hours, they were at the hospital in the Celestria region. After hours of emergency treatment, Russo was finally wheeled out of the operating room.
A crowd had gathered outside the operating room. This included the patriarch of the Vern family, Reuben Vern, and other high-ranking family members, anxiously pacing at the entrance.
âHow is he? Is my son going to be okay?
âReuben anxiously inquired as Russo emerged.
âMr. Vern, weâve stabilized your son, and heâs out of immediate danger, butâ¦â The doctor hesitated.
âBut what?â Reubenâs just settled heart tensed once more.
âYour sonâs reproductive organs sustained severe damage. He wonât be able to engage in any intimate activities from now on,â the doctor explained in a regretful tone.
âNo intimate activities? Doesnât this mean he is essentially impotent?â Reubenâs face turned pale. He pleaded desperately, âDoctor, heâs my only son! Please find a solution. No matter the cost, you must find a way to cure him!â
âMr. Vern, weâve exhausted all efforts. The damage is too severe, and thereâs no viable treatment. Itâs beyond the capabilities of any medical intervention.â The doctor conveyed a sense of helplessness.
âHow could this happen? Is my son really going to be unable to continue our lineage?â Reubenâs complexion turned ashen.
With his only son losing the ability to have children, the fate of their familial heritage hung in the balance.
âD-Dad⦠R-Revenge⦠H-Help me get revengeâ¦â Weakly, Russo opened his eyes, his words filled with a lingering sense of vengeance.
Despite his dire condition, the fire of hatred burned unabated in his gaze.
âRusso!â Reuben clutched Russoâs hand, his eyes welling up with tears. Urgently, he asked, âTell me, who did this to you? I swear Iâll make them pay for what theyâve done!â
