100 Days to Seduce the Devil - Chapter 767 Vincent Punished Them

Chapter 767  Vincent Punished Them

Day Eighty…

~~******~~

When Dave left Vincent’s Villa, Phoenix showed up, entering his study room. His Boss was unusually quiet today and his mind was wandering off somewhere.

“King… Lady Monica has been taken away by the police. What are we going to do now?” Phoenix asked Vincent. He knew the gravity of the situation. Monica’s arrest might lead to Vincent’s secret being revealed.

If Vincent abandoned Monica, she would certainly seek Nathan’s help by negotiating with him. Nathan Sparks would certainly make a move against Vincent and the King Stallion Mafia.

“Do you want me to silence her?” Phoenix consulted Vincent. That was the only solution he could think of. Besides, Phoenix heard Monica threaten Vincent earlier. She refused to accept their break-up. And she continued blackmailing Vincent. Phoenix was worried about his leader’s well-being. Monica might implicate Vincent in her crimes.

“No. Don’t hurt her. This is the last thing I’ll do for her to repay her kindness to me. I was indebted to her in the past. This is the least I can do for her– Don’t kill her.” Vincent was firm in his decision.

“But sir… if we do nothing, Miss Monica will betray you.” Phoenix expressed his concern.

Vincent raised his head, giving him a reassuring smile. “Trust me, Phoenix. She won’t reveal my secret to Nathan because she hates Phantomflake. Just like me, she wouldn’t want them to have their happy ending.”

“Just let the police deal with her. Dave will do the right thing,” Vincent added, believing in Dave’s capability.

“Regarding Dave, Sir. Are you really giving him the freedom to do what he wants? I thought you were going to use him against Nathan Sparks.” Phoenix couldn’t figure out what Vincent was trying to do. His method of seeking revenge suddenly changed. Did he become soft? What happened to Country J? Why did Vincent suddenly change his approach?

“Yes. I’m removing Dave from my plan. I don’t want him to get involved anymore. I did something unforgivable to him. I tried to kill the woman he loved– Abigail. And that woman… is also important to Jane.”

“I just wish for Dave to find his own happiness. He already suffered enough,” Vincent added.

Phoenix was taken aback. ‘So it’s true. Our King has fallen in love with Phantomflake.’ He didn’t know how he would react to this.

“My King… you’ve changed,” Phoenix mumbled, having conflicting emotions. He wasn’t certain if these changes would be good or bad for their leader and their organization.

Vincent chuckled confidently, unbothered by Phoenix’s remarks.

“We should go. It’s time to meet the old man.” He rose from his seat, grabbing his coat and car keys. He wanted to check on Old Man Xu. He wondered if Monica beat him severely.

Phoenix just nodded, opening the door for Vincent. They descended the stairs together, leaving the villa.

It took them one hour to reach the hideout where Old Man Xu was being held captive. Monica’s men were surprised to see the Leader of King Stallion Mafia dropping by personally.

“Where is he?” Vincent asked them in his stern cold voice.

The men cowered in fear because of Vincent’s domineering aura. They were easily intimidated by his mere presence.

“This way, Boss!” The team leader of the group guided Vincent to the abandoned warehouse.

“Leave. I’ll go alone.” Vincent ordered the men to leave. He wanted to see Old Man Xu alone.

The men obediently complied with his command. Vincent made his way through the entrance of the warehouse, his footsteps echoing softly against the cobblestone paths. As he reached Old Man Xu’s spot, his heart plummeted at the sight that greeted him. Still bound in the steel chair, the old man was unconscious. His once dignified form is now reduced to a sorry state. His frail body trembled with each labored breath. Bruises marred his aged face, a testament to the brutality he had endured.

Vincent’s breath caught in his throat as he moved closer to his unconscious father, his hands trembling with a mixture of inexplicable emotions. Gently, he brushed aside strands of gray hair, revealing the extent of Old Man Xu’s injuries. Bruises blossomed across his skin like dark petals. His lips, cheeks, and eyes were swollen.

“He needs medical attention immediately, otherwise, he might die,” Vincent mumbled. He didn’t expect Monica to be this cruel toward an old man. She didn’t hold back in beating him.

Vincent removed his binds. Then with great care, Vincent cradled Old Man Xu’s unconscious form in his arms, bringing him out of the warehouse.

“My King, let me carry him.” Phoenix immediately assisted him, taking Old Man Xu from his leader.

Monica’s men exchanged anxious glances with one another.

“Boss, what are we going to do? Miss Monica hasn’t given us the order to hand the old man over to the King.” One member asked their team leader.

“She would surely throw a fit once she learns about this,” he added, concerned about Monica’s reaction.

“Shut up! We can’t offend the King. Do you wanna die?” The Team Leader warned his subordinate.

“We need to leave. I have a nagging feeling about this. I can’t contact Lady Monica.” However, just as they prepared to depart, the sound of gunshots pierced the air.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Three men fall to the ground immediately, wincing in pain. Phoenix shot their legs as per Vincent’s command.

“Sir Phoenix! What is the meaning of this? Please spare us! Don’t kill us.” The team leader begged for mercy. “We are just following Lady Monica’s command.”

Phoenix curled his lip in contempt as he playfully waved his firearm. “Don’t fret, I’m not here to kill you. My boss simply aims to teach you a lesson so that you can reflect on your mistakes.”

“And do you wanna know why you are being punished right now?” Phoenix paused, pointing his gun at the team leader’s head.

“You almost killed our King’s father…”

The team leader’s face turned pale, peeing from fear. After making sure, Monica’s men couldn’t run away from him, Phoenix started to beat them one by one.

Vincent didn’t know why he felt sorry for the old man. He thought he deserved it. But part of him wanted to punish those men who made Old Man Xu suffer.
