Chapter 116: Past-4!
"Hahaha, Alexander, You didn't disappoint me. I won't be harsh on you and will gift the guest house behind our mansion to you. You can live there with your Grandchildren"
William turned his gaze to Conrad in the Video Call as he waved his hand: "Let them go, we have got what we wanted!"
"Yes, Grandfather!" Conrad Bowed as he adhered to his command letting go of Ashen and his brother Vic.
Two days later, in Ashen's guesthouse,
Ring! Ring! Ring!
The doorbell rang multiple times as Vic ran to the door and opened it with an excited smile: "Brother Ashen-- You two?"
He thought that it was Ashen who had returned from college, however, it was the twin siblings.
Vic gave them a hateful look: "What do you want now? Aren't you happy after taking our wealth and giving us this rundown guesthouse?"
"You Brat!" The brother, Lucas from the twin Siblings yelled, punching Vic in the gut.
Vic Fell to his knees, gasping for air. Vic was four years younger than them and didn't have a powerful build.
Seeing him like this, the sister, Laura, sneered at him: "Do you think you have the bodyguards protecting you even now? How dare you talk to us like that? You deserve a beating!"
She, turning to Lucas, suggested: "Brother Lucas, let's teach our cousin some manners. He should at least know how to respect his elders, right?"
"You are correct, Laura. It would reflect bad on our family if this brat talks to our guest like this just because he wasn't disciplined!"
Giving each other an evil smile, Lucas went behind Vic who was gasping due to the previous attack before putting both of his hands under Vic's arms and pulling them back to make Vic unable to defend.
Smack!
Laura slapped Vic in the face before kicking him in the gut with her knee.
Smack! Smack! Smack!
Slaps began raining down on Vic resulting in blood flowing down from the corner of his mouth. Noticing the blood, Laura panicked as she suggested: "Lucas, this wimp started bleeding. We should leave it here. Let's come again tomorrow to teach him, hehe!"
Lucas nodded as he released Vic from his hold and left with his sister.
Meanwhile, In Ashen's college,
Xinovia followed Ashen everywhere he went, holding her ears as an apology for her betrayal.
She had been at it for the past two days straight.
Being fed up with her, Ashen turned and yelled at her: "Stop following me! No matter what you do, it won't change my mind. Because of your betrayal, My brother and Grandfather suffered so much. We lost everything we had!"
Hearing him, tears flowed down Xinovia's eyes: "But My whole family was kidnapped. I couldn't just let them die. Also they promised that they won't hurt you that's the reason I agreed to do what they asked. I just chose the best option!"
Listening to her reason, Ashen sighed as an emotional expression appeared on his face: "Sigh... Xinovia, My brain understands what you are saying, but my heart doesn't. It doesn't know anything other than the fact that you betrayed me."
"If I was in the same situation as you, I would've never betrayed you. I would try to find a way to save both my family and love. Even in your place, I would've shared with you to find a solution together. But you kept me in the dark and betrayed my trust!"
"Xinovia, Before I lose my temper, Please just leave and get away from my sight. I'll never be able to forgive you!"
Ashen said before turning around and leaving.

Ring!
Ashen rang the doorbell to his new guesthouse where he had been living for the past two days.
Ring!
He rang again after no one opened the door, however, this time too, the gate wasn't opened.
Getting frustrated, he banged on the door as the door swung slightly, indicating that the door was already open. read first on m v _l,e m _p _y _r
"Oh, It's already open..."
Ashen went inside the house and his eyes widened in horror upon laying eyes on Vic on the ground, shivering from cold or something else. Blood flowed continuously down from his mouth.
"Vic! No, child, who did this? Wait, don't say anything, I'll take you to the hospital right now!"
Ashen in a hurry picked up Vic before putting him on the sofa in the living room and calling an ambulance.
Afterwards, Vic was admitted to the hospital for a day before he was allowed to leave.
Ashen's Grandfather, who had gone to his friend's house to ask for help also returned in a hurry after hearing about Vic.
After Vic healed up, Ashen went to see him in the ward.
"Vic, how did you end up like this? What happened? tell me!"
Vic, tearing up before speaking, said with a trembling voice:
"It was the twin cousins, They..."
Vic recounted his whole experience, making Ashen's blood boil.
Ashen was so angry that while clenching his fists, blood began to come out from his palm due to the amount of force he was applying.
At this moment, Ashen's hand was held by Vic as he looked at him:
"Brother Ashen, Why don't we go far away from this family? I don't want to feel this powerless!"
Ashen tightened his grip around Vic's hand as he assured with a smile:
"Don't worry my brother. I won't let you suffer this pain again and I promise you won't ever feel powerless in your life after tomorrow!"
Saying that Ashen stormed out of the hospital ward as he took out his phone and dialed a number.
Ring! Ring! Ring!
After three rings, the phone was answered by a female: "Boss Ashen, Is that you?"
"Yes Mojin, It's time to execute our plan. Come to the secret Building, We will execute our plan today!"
"Yes Boss! I'll depart right now!"
Ashen cut the phone as he muttered with a scheming smile: "William, It's time to lose everything you own. I'll take back my wealth and as interest, yours too!"
