My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 492
Finn and Derek followed Yasminâs finger to the figure lying in a pool. of blood. They both wore expressions of disbelief as if they had not noticed the person on the ground before. Canary, covered in blood, lay motionless on the ground like a lifeless corpse.
âMy goodness. Are you really still my gentle and fragile sister?â Derek was wide-eyed and tongue-tied. His sister was usually timid and would get scared even at minor troubles. Yet today, she had beaten up someone so badly. How did she manage to do that to a fully-abled
man?
Finnâs throat moved as he gulped. Was⦠Was Yasmin really that
fierce?
He had been thinking of marrying her, but would he just get beaten up every day if he were to bring her home?
Nash noticed that Canary was still alive and decided not to deal with him. Instead, he dragged David out from behind the sofa. Curled up on the ground, David gritted his teeth and said, âIf you have the guts,
just kill me.â
Nash stepped on Davidâs hand, and the forceful stomp crushed one
of his fingers into a bloody mess.
âArgh!â
The veins in Davidâs forehead bulged from the pain, and his eyeballs felt like they were going to explode. Ken muttered, âYour methods are
much more ruthless than mine, huh?â
Heidi and Yasmin could not bear to watch and turned their heads to the side. Calm and composed, Nash said, âItâs easy for me to kill you,
but thereâs no need for that.â
David was a man of pride. Even with one of his fingers a bloody pulp, he shouted defiantly, âIâve said it. If you have the guts, then kill me. If you donât dare to kill me, it means youâre a coward. In the future, youâll have a son and he w-â
Nash pressed his foot down once again. This time, he crushed
Davidâs thumb. The entire thumb turned into a pulpy mess while the stark white bones showed through. A shiver wracked through Davidâs
being from the sheer pain,
He clenched his teeth so hard that his gums started to bleed. The three grandmasters standing nearby were completely stunned, especially with Nash still looking calm and indifferent. It was as if he
was just having an appetizer.
Lying in a pool of blood, Canary opened his eyes slightly. Upon seeing
David being tortured, he immediately wet his pants.
At that moment, Xeno entered with a smirk. He was followed b
about 30 other people. âI wondered who it was, and it turns o Lucky from the Black Cat family!â
When he saw Davidâs crushed fingers, even the usually unflappable
Xeno was visibly unnerved. He thought he might, at most, need to
deal a quick, clean blow. However, what Nash was doing seemed
more like torture.
âMr. Nash, thatâs David, the second-in-command of the Black Tiger
Hall,â Xeno introduced as he walked over to Nash.
Nash looked down at the miserable looking man and said, âYour shouldâve mentioned that earlier.â
David raised his head to stare at Nash, trembling as he parted his lips. âY-You⦠Youâre Nash?â
Xeno kicked David in the face, adding, âYou think youâre allowed to
call the man by his name on its own?â This kick sent several of
Davidâs teeth flying.
âwas
just sayingâ¦â David then stammered, âIâm here to collect management fees from the landlord. Since the landlord wasnât here, I
had to take control of the company owners!â
David was fearless of many things, but he was terrified of Nash, who could make even the leader of a powerful organization quiver at the
mere mention of his name.
âManagement fees?â Nash furrowed his brows slightly.
Xeno explained, âItâs like⦠protection money. Currently, the Black Tiger Hall is the only one collecting management fees in Jonfor
Derek sneered and said, âYour people not only failed to protect
you also often harass and intimidate the girls in the industrial a Why should you have the right to collect management fees?â
He used to act subservient to these people, but with Nash here, he
was ready to assert himself.
âMr. Nash, we didnât know this place was your territory.â David was
now trembling with fear, his courage shattered by the mere mention
cof Nashâs name.
