Chapter 257
Liam glanced at the manager coldly. “Get out.”
The manager didn’t know how to deal with this matter, so he turned tail and ran when he heard Liam’s order.
The moment the manager left. Liam unhesitatingly stepped hard on Austin’s hand. Liam ground his leather shoe, making Austin tremble in pain. “You’ve already messed with my family. Why should I act like nothing has happened?”
Austin couldn’t bear the pain and wriggled on the ground. He roared ferociously. “If you dare to t
touch us today, I promise you
will regret
Liam smiled coldly with a vicious expression. “Are you trying to scare me off? Or do you think low life gangs like yours can threaten me!” Liam then took the dagger strapped on Austin’s back and gestured along Austin’s face. The dagger’s end looked like it would pierce Austin’s skin at any time. “You should be glad you didn’t hurt anyone I cared about today. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been alive now,” warned Liam.
Austin trembled as his eyes moved along with the dagger’s end, and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead. They were used to doing evil things and others being afraid of them. They had never been afraid of anyone before. Unexpectedly, they had messed with the wrong people today. Austin, who was being pointed by Liam with a dagger, immediately chickened out. “Sir, we are in the wrong today for messing with your family. Please be magnanimous and let us go.
Liam stared intently at Austin before cutting off one of his fingers with the dagger.
“Ah!” Austin immediately screamed as his body convulsed in pain. The man beside him was so scared that he didn’t dare to breathe, praying that Liam wouldn’t notice him.
That was when Ziv arrived. Liam straightened up and threw the knife at him. “One finger from each person, and send them to the police station after cleaning up the scene,” ordered Liam.
“Yes, Mr. Sullivan Ziv nodded. He had clarified the events from before when he came over, so he wasn’t caught by surprise now and calmly followed Liam’s orders. Screams continuously rang out the room, and the pungent smell of blood pervaded the entire space.
Liam held Cynthia in his arms and tried to cover her eyes. “Don’t look at i
There wasn’t discomfort in Cynthia’s expression as she stated calmly, “I want to see these scums getting punished.” She had been itching to do it herself when she had opened the door and saw Queena’s condition.
Liam was worried Cynthia would feel uncomfortable watching this scene, but now it seemed like Cynthia had a stronger psychological endurance than he thought
Ziv cleaned up the severed fingers and wiped off the fingerprints on the dagger. Then, he put on gloves and put the dagger in Austin’s hand, gening Austin’s fingerprints on it, and making it look like these people did it themselves. After finishing everything. Ziv came to Liam and said respectfully, “Mr. and Mrs. Sullivan, you can leave first”
There would be complicated procedures when the police arrived later. Cynthia wanted to go to the hospital to see how Queena was doing, so she
left with Liam.
Ziv estimated the time and untied the ropes on the gangsters‘ hands. Their energy had been drained by the pain of having their fingers severed. Even though they could move freely now, they could only hold their hands and how!.
The police arrived soon after. They took a deep breath when they saw the situation at the scene. “Who called the police just now?” asked the police. Ziv stepped forward and replied, “Officer, I called you guys. These men attempted to harass and wound people. The injured have been sent to the hospital. Please ensure they are punished severely.”
Hearing Ziv’s words, the gangster became angry. Austin stretched his fingers while enduring the pain, and stammered. “O–Officer, he is slandering us. We don’t know him at all. This man cut off our fingers the moment he came in. He intentionally injured us. I want to sue him.”
The policeman tolerated the smell in the room and looked at the gangsters impatiently. These people were regulars at the police station. They had committed many crimes over the years, and the officers even knew them by their names. “It’s not easy for someone to cut off your fingers, mocked the officer. Then, he turned to Ziv and said, “Sir, the case is complicated, so we need you to follow us to the police station”
“Okay,” responded Živ.
The police called in a doctor to bandage the gangsters severed fingers and took them with the dagger to the police station.
When Cynthia and Liam arrived at the hospital, Queena was already asleep, but they could see her frowning and mumbling incoherently as she slept. Vincent stood beside her, comforting her from time to time, Cynthia quietly walked to the bedside and asked softly, “What did the doctor
“A slight
it concussion and shock from the incident,” answered Vincent.
It was what Cynthia had expected. It would take time for Queena to recover. Depending on Queena’s condition after waking up, they would have to

get a psychologist if she had trauma from this incident. Looking at Vincent’s worried face, Cynthia hesitated briefly before asking. “How’s Mila
now?”
At that time, Cynthia was shocked when she turned around and saw Mila pushing away the attacker without any regard for her own safety. The only words Cynthia had heard associated with Mila were betrayer, ingrate, and selfish. But… Someone who stood up to help at that time didn’t seem like such a bad person…
Hearing this, Vincent, who was comforting Queena, went silent.
Cynthia continued. “She was injured because of me today. At that time, someone attacked me from the back. She was the one who rushed out and pushed the man away. The man started targeting her after that. So I want to know how she is now.”

his eyebrows and said coldly, I don’t know. Go ask the doctor
Cynthia was momentarily silent as she tried to figure out Vincent’s thinking. He had been anxious when he heard Mila passing out in the club. Now he looks like he never wants to see her. However, looking at his indifference now, Mila must be out of danger, mused Cynthia. After ascertaining everyone was doing fine, Cynthia left with Liam.
Queena opened her eyes the moment they left and grabbed Vincent’s hand, mumbling, “Vince, although I hate Mila very much, she protected me before Cynthia came along. Maybe-
“Enough, interrupted Vincent before Queena could finish her words. A scheming woman like her does everything for a purpose. I can’t guarantee that what happened today was not plotted by her to achieve a certain purpose. I won’t trust her again,” he added.
Hearing Vincent’s words, Queena kept silent. After all, the harm Mila had done to her brother before was real and could not be offset just because of this Queena sat up and looked at Vincent’s blood–stained coat and murmured, “Vince, why don’t you go back and change your clothes first! I’ll be
fine by myself,”
