However, his anger had no intimidation for Ash at all. Instead, it made him look like a clown, squealing and screaming without any deterrent power.
Ash simply pined Joshua to the ground and shouted, “I’m your grandpa!”
How could Joshua have ever been subjected to such humiliating treatment? He struggled to get up, but was held down tightly by Ash and couldn’t move at all.
This posture made Joshua’s wrist even more painful, and he couldn’t speak anymore. The arrogant and domineering appearance he had before was completely gone now.
Mikayla stared at Ash blankly for a moment, unsure of how to react.
It was the first time she saw Ash in such a rage, that way, as if he wanted to beat Joshua to death.
She never knew there was another side to Ash.
Swallowing, Mikayla whispered to Ash “Ash, why are you here?”
She can solve this matter by herself.
Ash said, “My girlfriend is being bullied. Can I not come?”
These words made Joshua pissed off.
Who was bullying whom? It was obvious that the two of them came to beat him.
Joshua really wanted to see who was the one who said such shameless words.
He endured the pain and looked towards Ash. Upon seeing who it was, Joshua was scared to death.
Others may not recognize Ash, but Joshua recognized him very accurately.
In the early years, in order not to offend the real dignitaries when he was hanging around, he deliberately recognized all the most powerful people in Innisrial, including Ash who was not in the country all the year round.
Joshua didn’t even know when he came back.
Besides, he was Mikayla’s boyfriend?
How can this be!
After a moment of shock, Joshua was left speechless. He trembled and stared at Ash as if he were a demon, his eyes filled with fear.
This surprised Joshua’s classmates who were used to his arrogant behavior. They couldn’t understand how he could be so scared.
Ash was even more furious when he saw Joshua’s cowardly state. How dared this guy cause trouble and bully his girlfriend while spreading rumors about his master?
Ash grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up, saying, “You have some nerve! If you can’t get what you want, you destroy it instead? Who gave you the guts?”
“I didn’t know she’s your girlfriend… Mr. Torres,” Joshua stuttered in response.
“Don’t give me that crap! I’m asking you who told you to spread rumors about the Read sisters!” Ash tightened his grip on Joshua’s collar and lifted him higher off the ground.
Joshua remained silent despite being choked by Ash’s grip around his neck. Ash knew someone must have been behind this scheme. It wasn’t just because Mikayla rejected him that he would go after her like this.
“Speak up!” Ash demanded as he squeezed harder on Joshua’s neck until his face turned purple.
Mikayla had not intended for things to escalate like this but seeing how serious things had become made her angry too. She realized she had underestimated the situation. There must be someone else behind all of this drama besides just Joshuah acting alone.
She needed to find out who that person was before things got worse than they already were.
However, no matter how much pressure Ash put on Joshua or threatened him with violence, he refused to speak up or reveal anything about who might be involved in these events.
Ash grew increasingly frustrated with Joshua’s stubbornness and decided enough is enough.
“Fine then! Let’s see how long your mouth stays shut.” With those words spoken out loud, Ash dragged
Joshua out of class without another word being said between them both.
Mikayla quickly followed. Although she was also extremely angry now, she was also worried that Ash had really made things too serious and would implicate him, which would be disastrous.
She followed along, and if necessary, she could call someone to come over.
Ash dragged Joshua all the way to the parking lot, threw him into the car, and tied him up with ropes.
They were still in the school after all. It was not appropriate to get physical here and end up seriously injuring someone.
Mikayla actually wanted to ask Ash where he was taking Joshua, but seeing Ash’s angry expression, she was also intimidated.
Ash drove all the way through half of the city and finally stopped in front of a large iron gate.
Mikayla had never been to this place before, and she didn’t even know that such a place existed. She couldn’t help but become even more nervous. Could Ash really be planning to silence Joshua in this place?
This was a seemingly old and abandoned factory building, but it still had strict security measures in place.
After pulling Joshua from inside, Ash threw him directly onto the ground.
He didn’t untie Joshua and just threw him to the ground like that.
Joshua cried out in pain, but he had no strength left and could only curl up on the ground, whimpering.
Ash didn’t immediately attend to him, but turned around and took Mikayla’s hand, saying, “Mikayla, come with me first.”
Mikayla was actually a little scared. Ash led her and she obediently followed without any objection.
Ash took her to a small cabin and said, “Baby, wait for me here, okay?”
When it came to Mikayla, Ash still had that gentle demeanor.
Mikayla nodded and said, “Okay.”
Ash leaned down and kissed Mikayla on the forehead, saying, “I’ll be back in no time.”
After speaking, Ash turned around and was about to leave the room.
His wrist was grabbed by Mikayla, and Ash looked over and heard her say, “You’re not really going to kill him, are you?”
Ash was amused by the girl’s words. It seemed that he really scared her.
He said, “I can’t give my life to him when I want to marry you and have children with you.”
When she heard this, Mikayla’s face flushed and she wanted to say how could this man still be flirting with her at a time like this.
Ash’s words put Mikayla at ease, knowing that she could trust him. As long as no one got hurt, she was not worried about anything else.
Sitting down on a sofa, Mikayla finally took a look around the place.
It was strange that the place was just so run-down, like an abandoned factory. However, inside this place was very clean and tidy, and also very comfortable.
Mikayla had never asked Ash about his job before, only knowing that he worked for her sister.
Now she realized that she didn’t even know what her sister did. She only knew that Aimee was a doctor at Innisrial General Hospital, but it was obvious that she had a hidden identity beyond that.
Mikayla was afraid that Aimee would look down on her, so she didn’t dare to ask too much about
Aimee’s affairs.
She only knew that Aimee was not doing well when she was with the Read family, but later found out that Aimee was actually doing fine on her own. This lessened Mikayla’s guilt somewhat.
But, thinking about it now, Mikayla suddenly became curious, what exactly did her sister do?
On one side, Mikayla was thinking, on the other side, Ash was holding an iron rod in his hand, scratching the ground and making harsh sounds.
He walked towards Joshua step by step, looking like a ghost from hell and going to kill him.
Joshua was about to freak out.
He usually relied on his family background to be arrogant and domineering, but he never thought that one day he would fall into the hands of someone who was many times more powerful than him.
He had always been smart enough to think that as long as he didn’t provoke those big figures who can’t be provoked, no matter how much he did, there will be no problem.
However, now he encountered a tough guy, and Joshua was almost scared to death.
“Don’t say it, will you?” Ash walked up to Joshua. His tone was cold and terrifying, as if the iron rod in his hand was about to hit Joshua’s body in the next second.
Joshua was so scared that he was paralyzed, and after his body twitched, a foul smell entered Ash’s nostrils.
Ash looked down at Joshua’s legs and saw a puddle of water there.
No need to ask, he already knew what it was.
Ash’s eyes flickered with a hint of disgust. It was truly pathetic how easily he had been frightened to the point of wetting himself.
It was just piteous for Joshua to act arrogant and bully people. He hadn’t even used more brutal means yet.
However, Joshua’s cowardice gave Ash an advantage.
Ash rattled the iron rod in his hand, making an even more piercing sound, and his posture became even more intimidating.
He swung the iron rod and made a motion to hit Joshua over the head.
“Speak up! Who made you do this?” Ash shouted.
Joshua was so scared that he tightly closed his eyes and didn’t dare to look at Ash.
His body curled up into a ball, and he was shivering all over. “I’ll say… I’ll say…”
Joshua couldn’t resist Ash’s threats and finally gave in. Ash threw the iron rod in his hand aside, squatted down, and glared fiercely at Joshua.
Joshua secretly opened his eyes, wanting to sneak a peek at Ash, but was even more frightened.
Ash lost his patience and didn’t want to waste any more time with him, saying, “You’ve got three seconds or I’ll break your leg.”
Joshua immediately shook his head vigorously, pleading with Ash to spare him.
He said, “It’s Alina, she found me.”
Ash was not unfamiliar with the name Alina, a woman who coveted Patrick and even went to his master’s to show off, but she had already been dealt with by his master.
