Chapter 1425
The Ex-Husband's Revenge
would âWhatâs the meaning of this, Rick? The second bloodline has gone so far and sunk so low that you bully juniors?! Do you have no respect for the first bloodline at all?!â Patrick roared and glared at Rick coldly.
âI disagree with you, Patrick! Leon broke Nigelâs legs and injured Eugene in the most ruthless manner! I just want to seek justice for them. How am I wrong?â? Rick protested.
âEnough with your excuses! Nigel started this and Eugene came after Leon without listening to reason.
Even if they were injured, they had it coming!â Patrick said.
Though he agreed that Leon had gone slightly too far, Patrickâs patience for the second bloodline ran out ever since they plotted to take over power during his birthday party. The fact that Leon injured Eugene and Nigel avenged the first bloodline, in some way.
âPatrick, do you insist on protecting Leon?â Rickâs expression darkened.
âI do! Rick, donât think for a second that I donât know whatâs going on inside your head! You are just venting your frustration on Leon after what happened during my birthday and you sent Nigel to go after Leon! How the plots thicken!â Patrick sneered.
Even Damian managed to comprehend Nigelâs true intention, so a man as experienced as Patrick could see right through Rickâs plot.
âT- Thatâs not!â Rick paled and muttered.
âI donât care about what you say! This ends here! If you wonât walk away, Iâll show you no mercy!â
Patrick said sternly.
âBut I-â Rick tried to argue, but was interrupted by Patrick right away.
âWhat? Do you have anything else to say?!â Patrick narrowed his eyes and sent his true energy toward Rick.
Rickâs breath caught in his throat at the intimidating wave of energy before him and backed away.
Though he was in the Emperor State as well, he just reached his current level recently, while Patrick accomplished it years ago.
If he continued to disobey Patrick, he knew that he would only suffer once Patrick ran out of patience.
âFine. Iâll let this go,â He said after taking a deep breath.
Though reluctant to let Leon go, Rick knew that he had no choice but to give up.
Both Nigel and Eugene were livid.
Nigel regained consciousness and his resentment toward Leon deepened as maddening pain radiated from his legs, but since Patrick was taking Leonâs side, he could only give up.
