The bodyguards had Larry pinned down, and he was howling with rage.
"Let go of me! What are you doing grabbing me? Go after that witch! I''m with Helen! She''s the enemy!"
Larry was under the mistaken belief that these were the Hawkins family''s bodyguards, all on his side.
But in reality, these were Tarquin''s men, ced there specifically to protect Elysia!
Of course, they weren''t about to listen to Larry. Seeing him try to wriggle out of it, they snapped his wrist with a crisp crack!
"Ah-"
Larry screamed, the pain making him twitch uncontrobly!
"Are you... are you nning to betray Helen for some nobody from out of town? Foolish to the extreme! You... oh..."
Before Larry could finish, he caught a few heavy punches to the face, leaving him bloody and battered.
His sses were crushed under a bodyguard''s boot, and hey curled up on the ground, in total disarray! Elysia red at him with fury,
"What goes aroundes around. You''ll get what''sing to you for the dirty deeds you''ve done!"
Larry glowered back, teeth clenched in rage, "You... you''ll regret this! You''re marked!"
Evan stepped in with a kick, "You''re the one who''s marked, scumbag, daring to badmouth my mom! Take that! And that!"
The little guy delivered a few more kicks!
With Elysia watching, Evan tried not to go overboard, merely giving Larry a taste of his own medicine.
To any onlooker, it seemed like a child throwing a tantrum, his kicks seemingly harmless.
But in reality, Evan''s kicks were far more lethal than those of an average adult!
Larry''s ribs were shattered by the force, the pain so intense he couldn''t even cry out!
Elysia was furious, never before wishing such ill on someone!
He dared to say that abusing her mother was a stress reliever!
Such a lowlife, lower than swine!
"Don''t worry, Mommy. Those who hurt Grandma and Grandpa will not get away with it," Evan assured.
Larry caught Evan''s reference to "Grandma and Grandpa," but he was in too much pain to ponder the implications.
All he knew was that his bones were broken, and his flesh ached terribly, feeling close to death.
Elysia instructed the bodyguards,
"Don''t kill him. Murder carries a hefty price, and it''s not worth it for scum like him!
Plus, we shouldn''t let him off the hook that easily. He thinks it''s relieving to torment others, let''s give him a taste of his own medicine!" Evan thought to himself, this I can do!
I''m an expert at dealing with trash like him. I''ve got plenty of ideas!
But with Elysia nearby, he held his tongue, nning to deal with Larry aler.
Evan took Elysia''s hand and said,
"Mommy, let Dad''s men handle this. Let''s head back to the main house, wait for Grandpa, and keep Grandmapany."
"Alright." Elysia nodded, shooting Larry onest venomous look before leaving with Evan.
She wasn''t worried aboutplications.
The bodyguards Tarquin had ced around her and the kids were top-notch. Helen''s minions were no match for them.
Themotion quickly alerted the entire Hawkins family.
Helen''s minions, thinking there was strength in numbers, charged over to save Larry!
But in a matter of minutes, they went from standing to lying on the ground!
They writhed in pain, clutching their stomachs, unsure of what hurt!
Seeing his opportunity, Larry shouted to a servant amidst the chaos,
"Contact the Murphy family, quick! Tell them Helen and I are in trouble, and we need backup!"
ns always seem tog behind changes!
They had intended to confront yton when he was down on his luck, but Elysia had thrown a wrench into their ns!
Now, with Helen still in police custody and their cover blown.
And with yton still calling the shots in the Hawkins family, they needed external support to survive!
The Murphy family, another powerhouse in Oceanopolis, had significant influence.
Under normal circumstances, the Murphy family couldn''t hold a candle to yton''s status.
