Chapter 260 Eighty Million, Buying Your Lives
“Bang!”
Butch Ghost was so scared that he let out a scream and almost fell to the ground! He thought Lachlan had been killed by the evil spirit he had released, but when he got closer, Lachlan suddenly opened his eyes.
It almost gave him a heart attack.
“How… how did you…” Butch Ghost asked with a shocked expression and wide eyes.
“How am I not dead?” Lachlan coldly laughed and asked.
With that, he snorted and suddenly rushed towards Butch Ghost with an aura of killing intent! He threw a punch with all his might at Butch Ghost.
“No… you dare to kill…”
Pong!
But it was already too late for Butch Ghost to threaten as Lachlan’s fierce attack came crashing down on him. Facing such an intense blow from Lachlan, all he could do was quickly raise both arms in defense in hopes of surviving this punch.
Crack!
However, as soon as his fists made contact with his arms, Butch Ghost felt the overwhelming power behind it and immediately showed despairing fear on his face. His arms were directly broken by Lachlan’s forceful strike before it continued its momentum towards his chest.
Even though he managed to block it somewhat … he couldn’t stop it!!
Suddenly, Butch Ghost’s body flew backwards into the air while blood sprayed everywhere like mist forming around him.
After landing, his body twitched a few times, and he raised his head with difficulty to stare at Lachlan, still wanting to say something…
But then, his breath did not come up, and he suddenly died.
His martial arts strength was only Half-Step Grandmaster; how could he withstand one full-force strike from Lachlan?
The evil spirit just now still made Lachlan feel uneasy about whether or not there were any more tricks up his sleeve which was why he decided to end this fight quickly without leaving anything behind.
“Hiss…” At this point, Kristina took a deep breath while Darwin looked at Butch Ghost’s corpse twitching uncontrollably; disbelief written all over their faces.
The expert who seemed mysterious and powerful just moments ago had been punched dead by Lachlan?
Kristina even began questioning if her father found her someone who wasn’t worth anything?
He chirped all day, didn’t hurt Lachlan, and when Lachlan threw a punch, he died?
“Next up is you two!”
At that moment, Lachlan’s expressionless face stared coldly at the Mclaughlin family as they walked by. Kristina and Darwin shivered with fear, feeling the terrifying killing intent directed towards them.
“Do you dare to kill me? I am the daughter of the Britt family’s head!” Kristina shouted at Lachlan.
“The Britt family? So what?” Lachlan sneered.
“Lachlan… let’s talk this out,” Darwin pleaded. “It wasn’t our fault. You asked for too much money, and we couldn’t afford it. That’s why we hired someone to deal with you.”
“You… don’t do anything crazy!” Darwin swallowed his spit and broke into a cold sweat.
“Oh?” Lachlan raised an eyebrow. “So this is your reason for revenge? It doesn’t matter if you can’t pay up; those 80 million dollars will buy your lives!”
If it weren’t for himself, Kristina would have been killed by “Blood Basin Reflecting Mirror” that night! Afterward, when Emerson came looking for him, his whole family was doomed to die.
However, instead of being grateful, they hired people to deal with him and even tried to kill him!
These ungrateful people who sought revenge deserved death!
“Mr. Willis! Lachlan… don’t… don’t kill me!” Darwin begged.
“You have a good relationship with Mr. Barker and Mr. Reid right? We’re all good buddies.”
“We’re all friends here; don’t do this… I’ll get my mom to give you money right away!”
Feeling Lachlan’s increasingly intense killing intent and seeing Butch Ghost’s broken body again made Darwin collapse in fear on his knees!
Kristina’s face changed constantly in front of the murderous aura emanating from Lachlan.
“Lachlan, you better think about the consequences! The Britt family is one of Kreanford’s four major families. If you kill us, the Britt family won’t let you go!”
Even now, this woman still wanted to threaten him. However, the trembling voice betrayed her true nature.
Laughing coldly, Lachlan was directly provoked but just then, someone rushed into the Mclaughlin family’s villa in a hurry!
“Mr. Willis! Please spare our lives!”
“I’ve raised enough money!”
“I’ve raised enough money! Don’t… don’t hurt us…”
Philip was panting heavily as he stumbled towards Lachlan, who had been about to attack them. Lachlan furrowed his brow and turned around to face Philip.
“Mr. Willis, please spare my wife and son! I couldn’t come up with the money before, but I finally have it now!”
“Please have mercy!”
Philip saw the corpse on the ground and panicked even more, crying out for help.
Lachlan raised an eyebrow. “So you went out to get money?”
“Yes! Yes, I borrowed from everyone I could find until I finally got enough! Here it is!” Philip said frantically as he handed over the cash.
“You’re forgiven this time,” Lachlan said coldly. Kristina and Darwin deserved punishment, but Philip was still useful since he was Emerson’s biological father.
Emerson didn’t want to recognize him, but who knew what was gonna happen?
The last time Emerson risked his life to protect Nora, Lachlan saw him as one of his own.
For Emerson’s sake, Lachlan didn’t really want to make a vendetta against Philip.
After receiving 80 million dollars into his account, Lachlan gave Kristina and Darwin a cold look before leaving with a final warning, “Mr. Mclaughlin, keep your wife and son under control! If not today then someday they will die by someone else’s hand.”
“Yes sir,” Philip replied gratefully as he wiped sweat off his forehead.
Kristina and Darwin breathed a sigh of relief after Lachlan left; they knew that if Philip hadn’t arrived in time with the money, they would be dead by now.
“Now do you see why we can’t mess with Mr. Willis?”
“I told you so.”
“So this is the master you had your father hire? Willis killed him?”
At this point, Philip glared at his wife and chided her through gritted teeth.
Kristina remained silent due to shock while reflecting on what just happened moments ago.
Several minutes passed in silence…
Kristina called Abel Britt, the head of the Britt family, and said with a hint of tears in her voice, “Dad, he’s dead… he’s dead!”© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
“Hmm, what’s so surprising about that? Butch Ghost made his move. Of course Lachlan would die!” Abel chuckled and said naturally.
Hearing his daughter’s tone of voice, he felt there was no need to be so excited.
“No! It’s not Lachlan who died!”
“It’s Butch Ghost who died!”
Kristina’s voice still had a touch of horror.
“What?” As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden shout on the other end of the phone which represented how shocked he was!
