Chapter 1573 Rip Your Tongue Off
Davin uttered, âYouâre spouting nonâ¦â
Wait, on second thought, Stevenâs wife has indeed been raped. Uh, but then again, Skyler and Sally are both Stevenâs children. Itâs not right to say that.
Just as he wanted to correct that statement, the bodyguard approached him and said, âMr. Davin, Iâm only trying to provoke him into coming out. If we merely speak the truth, then itâs not really effective.â
That rendered Davin speechless.
In the end, he said, âFine. Do as you please. But Iâm worried that heâll retaliate forcefully, and our mouths will be his first target.â
âMr. Davin, are you afraid that he will sew our mouths shut?â
âEven if he doesnât do that, being beaten up will still be one hell of an ordeal to endure.â
Gawking at Davin, the bodyguard asked, âMr. Davin, are you suggesting that we should go easy on him? Thatâs so anti-climactic.â
Before Davin could even have the chance to reply, the other bodyguard started growling, âSteven, you stupid pig! Open the door, and Iâll tell you just how stupid you areâ¦â
Footsteps could be heard approaching them, and there seemed to be more than five people.
Puzzled, the bodyguards turned their heads around and noticed a large crowd was gradually forming in the vicinity.
Their hearts started pounding rapidly.
Scrutinizing the one-armed man standing in the lead, Davin reckoned that the person was Steven.
D*mn, so thatâs why he refused to open the door just now. He and all his men were not in! We were all yelling in vain! What were they doing before this?
Steven had a tall stature and a buff physique. More importantly, he looked like someone stubborn and persistent.
Ah, no wonder he has been insistent about taking revenge against Evan after assuming that Evanâs the one who destroyed the Maupay family, Davin thought.
The man beside Steven was slightly shorter, but they seemed to belong to the same age group. His big rounds eyes reeked of insidiousness and cunningness. What a sly little fellow! Is he the butler of the Maupays, Riley Maupay? Oh my, I must be wary of this man, Davin commented inwardly.
Steven, standing across from them, started sizing Davin up too.
His bearing and facial features⦠He seems so familiar. Itâs as if Iâve seen him somewhere before.
Riley took a step forward and asked domineeringly, âWho was hurling insults just now?â
The bodyguards guilty of the act dared not reply as they never expected so many people to show up suddenly.
If Steven is adamant about teaching us a lesson, Mr. Davin and the others wonât stand a chance! Since the odds are stacked against us, itâd be wise to remain quiet.
âWhoâs the one with a death wish? How dare you insult Mr. Maupay! Own up and admit to it now. Iâll rip your tongue off and feed it to the pigs,â Riley growled through clenched teeth.
Davin, who was observing at the side, was amused. His reaction makes it seem like someone has libeled his father. Well, no wonder Steven never grew suspicious of him throughout so many years. He mustâve been displaying a loyal and faithful act before Steven as if the latter is his father.
âNo one wants to admit to it? Then itâs time to say goodbye to your tongues!â Riley barked.
The bodyguards looked at Davin in unison. We acted under your instructions, Mr. Davin. Please speak up!
At that moment, another bodyguard uttered, âMr. Davin, what should we do now? We were merely carrying out your instructions. Besides, it was them who scolded Steven, not us. Itâs unfair for us to be implicated in it and lose our tongues! How are we supposed to live our lives then?â
Davin gave him the side-eye. Itâs just a small threat, yet heâs terrified. What a wuss!
Taking a step forward, he stared at Riley and said calmly, âNo, we didnât say anything. You must have misheard.â
Davin was under the impression that Riley was done for the moment Steven found out about the truth. Hence, there was no need for him to fear Riley.
