Hunter turned and left. “I’ll deal with him personally.”
A tall man was curled up in a corner of a cold, dark room.
Shane could hear a click. He was like a rat in the dark and was silently paying attention to what was happening outside.
The tiniest sound would attract his attention. He adjusted his glasses and stumbled toward the door.
A ray of light shone in through, and Shane became hopeful.
Hunter’s men didn’t do anything to him after he made the video clearing up the misunderstanding about Madison. But he hadn’t had anything to eat or drink for over half a day. His throat was parched.
The door was finally being opened. Was he going to be freed?
A tall and well-built man appeared at the door. Shane anxiously asked, “I did what you asked. You should let me go now.”
Someone turned on the lights in the room. The bright light shone right into Shane’s eyes, so he covered his eyes with his hands.
After his eyes adjusted to the light, he heard an indifferent voice say, “You think you’d be leaving?”
The voice wasn’t loud, but Shane felt like he had been hit by a bus. He had a feeling that he might not be able to leave this place in one piece.
He saw a handsome man in a suit before him. He had only seen the man on television before.
“M-Mr. Williams!”
Maybe it was because Hunter had such a commanding presence, or maybe it was because he had learned his lesson; Shane knelt on the floor without hesitation.
“I was fooled by the rumors online, Mr. Williams. Trust me, I wasn’t really planning on hurting your wife.”
“You weren’t planning on hurting her?” Hunter thought that was the funniest joke he heard in a long time.
Hunter wasn’t someone who would bully the weak, nor would he look down on others. He would’ve forgiven Shane if it was just a minor issue and Madison wasn’t hurt.
He reviewed the footage repeatedly. If Madison reacted a little slower, she would’ve been doused in sulfuric acid, especially her face.
The majority of it would be eroded. The consequences of Shane’s actions would be devastating, but he glossed over it by saying he didn’t plan on doing it.
Hunter smiled without saying a word. Shane’s heart started to beat quickly, and his back was covered in sweat.
Just as Shane was trying to guess what Hunter would do, Hunter suddenly slashed Shane’s arm with a knife.
Hunter’s actions were so swift that Shane could already feel the pain when he realized what had happened.
He screamed in pain.
“I didn’t mean to do it. Can you forgive me?” Hunter asked with an icy expression.
Although Shane was in pain, he didn’t care about it as long as he could get out of there alive.
He quickly said, “Of course I can forgive you. I deserved that.”
“You are quick-witted.”
“Then…” Shane was excited.
In response, Hunter cut Shane a few more times ruthlessly. He didn’t even blink as he swung the knife repeatedly.
Shane finally realized that Hunter’s question was meaningless. No matter what his reply was, Hunter had no intention of letting him go.
“Does it hurt?”
“A lot. Mr. Williams, please don’t hurt me anymore.”
“You want me to stop hurting you? Did you think about that when you tried to hurt Madison?””
Hunter grabbed him by the collar and said, “Do you know what happens when a person is doused in sulfuric acid?”
Hunter’s eyes were bloodshot, and his expression was stormy.
Shane was sweating profusely from the fear.
He muttered, “I don’t know. I really don’t. Mr. Williams, I don’t know what came over me. I was blinded by greed. I didn’t think too much about it …”
Hunter said coldly, “Then, I’ll give you a taste of what happens when you’re doused in sulfuric acid.”
Shane felt a chill when he heard Hunter’s words. He looked at Hunter in disbelief.
“Mr. Williams, wha-what did you say…”
Kelvin brought over a huge bucket carefully. He didn’t hurt himself while doing so because he wore specialized gloves in advance.
“I’m a fair man. I’ll splash you with some sulfuric acid. If you can dodge it, good for you. But if you get doused in acid, don’t blame me for it.”
Fear flashed in Shane’s eyes. He had already been cut by Hunter. It would be bad if the acid touched his wounds.
Shane knelt on the floor and begged for mercy, groveling with all his might.
“Mr. Williams, I was wrong. I realize that now. I’ll die if you splash that acid on me.”
Hunter kicked him away and straightened up. He looked at Shane emotionlessly and said slowly, “So you do know that sulfuric acid can be lethal.
“Yet you splashed it at a woman without hesitation. You know how important a woman’s face is to her, right? If it’s ruined, how would she live even if the acid didn’t kill her?”
Shane raised his hands and started to slap himself. “Yes. I was a fool. I only cared about myself and didn’t spare others so much as a thought. It’s all my fault. I …”
“Then you should bear the punishment for your mistake.”
Hunter looked at Kelvin and said, “Do it.”
Hunter had already looked into Shane’s background. He’s a compulsive gambler who was down on his luck. He was also Mara’s fan.
After the incident with Madison and Mara happened, Shane criticized Madison online. Someone contacted him and gave him some money to splash sulfuric acid on Madison.
Shane had been driven to his wits’ end by his debt collectors. He thought it was a good thing to be able to avenge his idol and get paid at the same time.
He agreed to do it without hesitation. But he didn’t expect to land himself into so much trouble.
Hunter walked out of the room and closed the door behind him. After a while, blood-curdling screams could be heard coming from the room.
Hunter was wiping the blood stains from his knife with a towel as Brent stood behind him and reported.
“We’ve looked at everything. They dealt in cash, and the person was very careful. They made the transaction in a palace where there weren’t any surveillance cameras.
“According to Shane, the person is a man. He covered himself up thoroughly and didn’t reveal any defining features.
“His height and build resembles mine, and he didn’t sound like he was from Aldenvine.”
“Is that all you got?”
“Yes. Even his voice had been altered. He was careful not to leave any clues. All we can guess is that the person who wants Mrs. Williams dead is not in the country, but he is a man of means.”
Hunter toyed with his knife and said with a cold expression, “What a pity. I thought we would be able to root him out with how the situation had escalated.
“Don’t let your guard down. Ask around on the street where the transaction happened. There might be other witnesses.” “Don’t worry, Mr. Williams, I have people on that.”
“Be sure to keep our trip abroad under wraps. Don’t raise anyone’s suspicions.”
“Understood.”
Hunter patted Brent on the shoulder and said, “You’ve been through a lot this time round.”
“You’re too kind, Mr. Williams. They didn’t have any evidence, and they couldn’t beat the information out of us. We only had to record a statement.
“But Xavier Harper seems to blame you for what happened to his sister. He might be trouble. Do I need to come up with a reason to get him transferred?”
“There’s no need. I won’t be staying for long, and we don’t really cross paths often. Be sure to tie up loose ends.”
“Understood.”
Hunter walked into the darkness. They still didn’t know who was plotting against them.
Who was trying to harm Madison?
The Williams Group made an amazing comeback. The stock prices went through the roof overnight. The company’s business was booming.
The franchise supermarkets had customers lining up outside the doors before opening hour.
It was the same for their jewelry shops, clothing shops, and even real estate agencies.
Their live streams had tens of thousands of viewers demanding that they line up the products to be bought -especially the people who criticized the Williams Group and Madison mercilessly online.
Madison’s face was almost destroyed, and the Williams Group was on the verge of bankruptcy. So, they went to the Williams Group’s shops and spent their money.
Hunter had never lacked money in his life. Everyone knew that the Williamss were wealthy, but no one knew exactly how wealthy they were.
Only Hunter knew that the wealth accumulated by the previous generations was worth more than 100 Williams Groups.
The Williams Family’s assets span various industries and countries.
Some assets were public information, and there were also some well-hidden ones. Only the head of the Williams Family knew everything about the family’s assets.
So, Hunter didn’t really care even though the Williams Group lost several hundred million dollars. Nor did he care about the malls being damaged by people.
He didn’t care about the losses then, and he didn’t care about the profits that were being generated.
Hunter gave it a quick glance and set his phone aside. He turned to the side and gazed at Madison.
All of the riches in the world were nothing to him compared to her.
Perhaps his gaze was too intense, and Madison began to wake from her slumber.
The moment she opened her eyes, she was met with Hunter’s loving and tender gaze. “Good morning, Madie.”
Hunter found her bewildered look adorable, so he leaned in and kissed her on the lips.
Madison reflexively wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him deeper. She felt a sense of tenderness for Hunter hearing about his past.
Although Jeff wasn’t her biological father, she could tell that Jeff loved her a lot and gave her a happy childhood based on what Hunter told her.
Hunter didn’t have a dad or a mother’s love. To him, she was his only family. So, she didn’t push him away and accepted the kiss.
Hunter broke off before he lost control. It had been several months since the premature birth, and Madison was in good enough health for intercourse.
But Hunter didn’t want to take advantage of her. He could feel that she had some affection for him, but she wasn’t really in love.
Hunter wasn’t in a rush. He had plenty of time to let her fall in love with him.
“Madie, I might be a little busy in the next couple of days. There are a lot of things I need to take care of personally. We’ll travel abroad after I’m done with that, okay?”
Madison nodded and said, “I’m okay with that.”
“The people coming after you haven’t been identified yet. I’ve arranged a secure place for you to study medicine for your safety.”
Madison subconsciously looked at her hand wrapped in bandages and said, “Okay.”
She figured that Hunter wouldn’t do anything to hurt her.
Hunter got up and went to the bathroom. Madison stretched and caught up with the news on her phone.
Everyone was talking about the Williams Group. It was like the weather outside at the moment. The storm had cleared.
The good weather was a long time coming. The sun was shining brightly, and the snow had melted. Madison’s mood improved with the weather.
Hunter hugged her from behind, smelling like peppermint. He said, “What’s on your mind?”
