chapter 68

If she saw Boss like that, then she would know everything, Frank thought.He swiftly grabbed her, taking advantage of her confusion. "It's dangerous here. Boss has ordered me to take you with me.""Huh…? Dangerous...But Boss…""Don't worry about him. Let's go."There was one other goon left alive but Frank was just as adept in fighting as Eric. He easily dealt with him and took her away.The sound of Eric gritting his teeth made the leader cower in fear."I-I will die…"Saliva started to dribble down from the side of his mouth. He felt an insurmountable pressure crushing his larynx. But the anger in Eric's eyes refused to die down.He wasn't satisfied so he pulled his arm back and with deadly force smashed his head on the wall.Blood splattered in all directions which stained his clothes too. The patch of the wall turned dark crimson. The leader felt a crushing blow to his skull and he died instantly.Janet froze in horror."You hurt Lucy. Your bullet hit her...How dare you…"Sheer anger consumed him to the point that he didn't realize that the leader was already dead. He kept hitting and smashing his head to purge the fury inside him.The anger that never surfaced in all these years due to his upbringing was suddenly unleashed like a storm.It could be compared to a hero who gains a newfound superpower that he has trouble controlling.The leader's face was already messed up and unrecognizable.Vicky gulped. One of his subordinates fearfully whispered, "Boss, we should stop him…"It was suicide talking to him, but…"B-B-Boss…" Vicky steeled himself.Eri  stopped and his dark gaze landed on him. He jolted."T-that he is a-already dead…" He sweated a lot as he stammered.Eric's eyes narrowed further. He threw away the leader and started walking towards Vicky."B-Boss...I-I…"He thought he would kill him too. Instead, Eric passed by him. Vicky peeked and saw his tall figure threateningly tower on top of Janet.Janet was as white as a sheet."Sta-sta-stay away from me…"Eric grabbed his jaw with such force that he felt his teeth tearing out of his gums. Tears pooled in his eyes.In a very low and quiet voice, Eric said, "You claimed Lucy as your mistress."He widened his eyes. He wanted to speak but he was unable to with the crushing force gripping his jaw tightly."A mistress is someone with who a cheater husband has an illicit relationship with. Do you mean that you slept with Lucy? You touched her?"His grasp tightened. "Is that what you want to imply?"Janet vigorously shook his head in denial."You spoke dirty about Lucy," he squinted his eyes, "so you don't need that tongue anymore."In a flash, Eric forced open his mouth and severed his tongue with his bare hand.It was over even before Janet could understand anything.Janet couldn't even shout. Blood filled his mouth. The pain set in. His eyes rolled back in extreme pain and he slumped back in unconsciousness. He was going to die soon with all the blood loss.Eric wiped his hand and turned towards Vicky. After witnessing two deaths, he had lost all his hope of surviving the Mafia King's wrath.Eric emotionlessly said, "Your turn now."
