Chapter 686

Zachary looked at everyone in the hall, malicious intent in his clear

eyes.

His energy as a master in the Mystique Loyalty Realm and the deputy president was stifling.

“Mr. Lindon, I’m sorry.”

A middle-aged man with an eyepatch picked up a bramble from the ground and hit it on Lindon’s back while gritting his teeth.

“Ah!”

Lindon’s eyes widened from the pain, causing him to jump.

His white shirt was torn. His skin, which was fair and tender due to being pampered, was suddenly ripped open.

It could be seen that this one-eyed man had shown no mercy at all.

Dominic picked up the gold pipe, put it in his mouth, and took a puff with trembling hands.

After all, Lindon was his only grandson, and he had always been

reluctant to beat him.

He could not bear to watch as Lindon’s flesh got lacerated from the

punishment.

However, if he continued to indulge him, no matter how good his

connections were, he might not be able to protect Lindon forever.

Zachary noticed Dominic’s trembling hands from the corner of his

eye and whispered, “Dom, why don’t you step aside for a while and let

me handle this?”

Dominic waved his hand and said in a trembling voice, “No need…”

Zachary did not continue to persuade him. He turned around and

continued to watch the inner hall staff enforcing the rules on Lindon.

Every time Lindon tried to escape, he would be brought back.

In the end, they simply found two lackeys to press Lindon to the

ground.

After half an hour of continuous torture, Lindon’s back was covered

with blood, and his eyes were bloodshot.

He yelled, “Grandpa… I was wrong… I know I was wrong, so please stop beating me!”

Another person whipped him hard.

The brambles added another scar to Lindon’s back.

Lindon was in so much pain that he even wanted to bite his tongue

and commit suicide.

Zachary could not bear it anymore, so he turned around and said

seriously, “Dom, this is enough, right?”

Dominic continued to smoke silently.

Zachary sighed and said, “Continue!”

When all 100 people in the hall were done, Lindon had already passed

out.

Zachary looked at Dominic again, but Dominic had his eyes closed.” Wake him up.”

A lackey poured a bucket of cold water over Lindon.

Lindon shuddered and regained consciousness again.

Zachary ordered softly, “Continue.”

At this moment, a middle-aged man walked in from outside and looked at Lindon on the ground. He said, “Dom, someone from the Inspection Office is here.”

Dominic opened his eyes slowly and said casually, “Tell them to

leave.”

The middle-aged man stopped and continued, “It’s Felicity Snyder, the deputy of the Inspection Office. She brought a lot of people along.”

Dominic narrowed his eyes and waved his hand.

Immediately, a few lackeys brought Lindon away.

Outside the ancestral hall, Felicity was wearing a red leather coat.

She barged in with more than 20 inspectors.

The more than a hundred people outside had cold looks on their

faces, showing mutual hostility.

“Felicity, do you know where this is?” someone from the outer hall

questioned coldly.

“Isn’t this the Carters’ ancestral hall?” Felicity answered matter-of- factly.

“So why did you barge in?”

“I received a report that Lindon is back!” Felicity looked at that man

and said with a half-smite.

“What a joke! Lindon was executed, so how could he come back? Do

you think he crawled out of his grave?

“Get lost!”

“Get lost!”

Even though they were facing the deputy of the Inspection Office, the

people from the outer hall were not scared at all. They even came out with arrogant claptrap.

Some of them had rolled up their sleeves to get ready to fight at any

time.

The inspectors behind Felicity yelled, “What are you doing?”

“Shouldn’t we ask you this? What are you doing?”

“Go away!”

Dozens of people from the outer hall had rushed over to the

inspectors.

They would not fight.

However, if the inspectors dared to attack them, they would be

defending themselves by fighting back.
