"Kill, he killed someone!"
"Someone dies!"
"Lawyer Stone is dead!"
The crowd, many covering their mouths, faces full of disbelief!
In a society governed by law, with so many people present, how could he dare to kill someone?
In the entire manor, all nobility, all dignity, in front of that bloody corpse, suddenly felt lost.
Everyone felt a chill, trembling! Breathing shortened, hair standing on end!
Some even felt the wine glass in their hand was like thick blood, stomach-churning, a wave of nausea.
Humphrey's turned his eyes lightly and looked at Elsa. His calm face suddenly turned cold, raising his hand swiftly, a slap landing on Elsa's face.
"Smack!"
Directly knocking Elsa down at Hubbery's feet!
Elsa looked at Humphrey in disbelief, her pretty face instantly swollen!
The whole place fell into a deathly silence.
Humphrey not only killed Lawyer Stone but also dared to hit Elsa.
Elsa is the heiress of the Willow family!
A wealthy heiress who countless people would grovel at her feet for a chance!
Is Humphrey out of his mind?
"Humphrey, how dare you hit me!" Elsa erupted in anger, her eyes crimson!
As the prestigious heiress of the Willow family, being slapped by Humphrey in front of so many people?
Her dignity was shattered!
"Not only do I dare hit you, I also dare to kill you." Humphrey flicked his finger, slowly saying, "I hope you understand, the reason I didn't let Xingtian kill you is not because I'm afraid to kill you, but because it's not yet time for you to face the consequences."
He extended his foot, the dusty boot touching Elsa's face, stepping on it directly: "Remember, you don't even have the right to carry Meral's shoes. She is the woman I will protect for life. If you dare to provoke her, be careful that I will kill your whole family."
With that, he used the sole of his shoe to lightly rub Elsa's exquisite face, then withdrew his foot.
This action dumbfounded everyone present, leaving them stunned, like statues!
Even Hubbery was momentarily frozen.
Did he step on the noble Elsa?
Meral stood behind Humphrey, feeling her towering presence like a god!
Her eyes welled up instantly!
In the year of the downfall of the Quinnell family, she had seen the warmth and cruelty of human nature, accustomed to being kicked when down.
But today, Humphrey's return made her taste warmth once again!
He kills, she was not afraid!
Even if he was a ruthless killer, what does it matter?
As long as he's willing to stand in front of her, shielding her from the storm, even if they fall into an endless abyss together, it doesn't matter!
Hubbery snapped out of his daze, quickly helping Elsa up, gritting his teeth angrily, "Humphrey, you're asking for death!"
Elsa, covering her face, completely lost her composure, pointing at Humphrey, her expression twisted, continuously screaming with resentment, "Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!!"
Crash!
On the second floor of the villa, suddenly a middle-aged man's upper body popped out of the window, slightly chubby figure, and a fierce expression.
This man was the housekeeper of the Willow family, Payne!
He had been dealing with matters in the villa when he heard the scream of Elsa outside, only then did he realize that something was wrong in the courtyard. Without hesitation, he pulled out a handgun and pushed open the window.
Since the Willow family became one of the four major families, Payne's status has risen. The reason he could be the head housekeeper of the Willow family for so many years was his loyalty. Seeing Elsa being slapped to the ground and humiliated, he was filled with anger and had only one thought in mind: to kill Humphrey for Ms. Willlow's sake!
"No matter how skilled you are, can you dodge a bullet? Dare to hit our Ms. Willlow, kid, you're dead!"
As Payne spoke, the handgun in his hand suddenly pointed at Humphrey!
Bang!
In the next moment, it was Payne's head that was shot, his body shook violently, and he fell from the window, landing on the ground with a thud.
Claude squinted, holding the gun, with a wisp of smoke lingering.
Previously, when Claude pulled out his gun, he was stopped by Humphrey.
Most people, as Otis said, thought Claude was just bluffing and wouldn't shoot.
But now, with one shot, Claude shattered the last remaining illusion in everyone's minds!
Who said he wouldn't dare to shoot? Not only did he dare, but he shot him in the head!
Both of these men are cold-blooded killers who wouldn't hesitate to kill!
Seeing the body of Payne lying at her feet, Elsa was completely frightened, bursting into tears!
Hubbery's legs were trembling, unable to hold back the urge to urinate, his face pale.
They were ultimately sheltered flowers. Even though their family business was not clean, they had never experienced such a bloody scene repeatedly.
Humphrey stood with his hands behind his back, coldly staring at Elsa. "Now, can we continue our previous conversation?"
Elsa was so frightened that she stopped crying and asked with sobs, "What conversation? What do you want to say? What do you want to say?"
Humphrey spoke slowly, leaning slightly forward, his handsome yet cold face gradually enlarging in Elsa's eyes, as if a towering mountain was leaning over, making her breathless.
"I, I, at the auction, used means to block all bidders and bought the villa at the starting price," Elsa, under this pressure, unable to argue, could only speak the truth.
Humphrey nodded slightly, a smirk on his face. "So, during the auction, someone colluded with you to make a private deal?"
Elsa replied, "Yes, yes, the downfall of the Herbert family has nothing to do with me. I just bought the villa at a low price. The reason the villa was auctioned was because Dempsey had left a large debt before he died, which is not my concern!"
Humphrey straightened up, nodding slowly. "Today, I just came to understand how you managed to buy this mansion villa for 850,000 dollars. I also wanted to say hello to you all, to let you know that I, Humphrey, have returned.
As for the downfall of the Herbert family and who was involved, whether you admit it or not, it doesn't matter.
From the top four major families to the lowest servants, I will thoroughly investigate everyone involved in the plot against the Herbert family.
You two can start picking adjacent graves early. When the time comes, I will bury you together."
Their faces turned ashen!
The whole scene erupted in an uproar!
Regardless of any previous speculations, now everyone could be sure!
Humphrey was opposing the entire Lymelathe City for a fallen Herbert family!
Humphrey turned and looked at Meral, "Let's go."
Meral smiled, nodding slightly.
After tonight, they may have a few more days to live, but at least, right now, she is content.
He was the man she had been dreaming of!
He was the man that Meral decided to marry from the first time she met him over a decade ago!
He was truly unparalleled and invincible!
The two walked off the stage side by side, Claude following behind, the three of them heading towards the estate gates.
The whole place fell silent, clearing a path silently, no one dared to stay.
His steps were steady, his posture upright, his coat fluttering in the wind!
When he came, no one could stop him.
When he left, no one dared to hold him back!
It wasn't until Humphrey took Meral and Claude completely out of the estate that Elsa looked grimly at Hubbery, "What should we do? Should we report this? They killed Lawyer Stone and also killed Payne, two murders are enough for a conviction! Just arrest him and then get rid of him!"
Hubbery's eyes flickered, speaking in a deep voice, "The reputation of our two great families has been tarnished. If tonight's events spread, it won't look good!
I think we shouldn't report it for now, we should first contain the information and report this to our father!
As for the people present, we need to reassure them, so they don't spread rumors everywhere."
Elsa gritted her teeth, "Fine, we'll do as you say! I will make sure Humphrey gets what he deserves!"
