Shane crept to the other side before the cops moved in on him. However, Bonnie noticed it immediately after. She grinned coldly and darted over to him. “Where do you think you’re going?”
Shane whipped around when he heard her voice. Sweat dripped from his forehead, and he gulped when he saw her grin.
‘That’s a devilish smile. I have to get as far from Bonnie as possible.’
With that in mind, he took hurried steps back. As he was about to turn and run the other way, Bonnie was already in his way again. She balled her fist and punched his belly.
“Ugh!” Shane grunted and fell to his knees, panting and looking miserable. The pain was so unbearable that he could not help but have a mild seizure. Then, it spread to his organs, growing increasingly intolerable.
He clutched his stomach and looked up at her, stammering, “Th-that was cruel, Bonnie!”
Bonnie’s smile widened as she stared into his frightened eyes. She casually said, “I thought I told you I won’t let you die so quickly. That’d be too merciful. I’ll make you wish you were dead.”
“Why, you—” Shane was overwhelmed with anger and resentment. However, the pain was so intense that he could not speak coherently. His back was covered in sweat as he hunched over and tried to back away from Bonnie.
‘He looks so pitiful. Did he honestly think he could get away? His lack of intelligence deserves an award.’
Suddenly, Bonnie kicked Shane’s ankle.
Crack!
The sound of a bone snapping echoed. Immediately after, Shane’s blood-curdling scream filled the air, “Gah!”
Bonnie watched as he grimaced in pain and anguish. Then, she withdrew her leg with a cold expression, telling Ivor’s bodyguards, “I’m not done with him. Take him back to Pyralis. I’ll take my sweet time settling the score with him. Also, ensure you watch him at all times. I don’t want him to escape.”
Ivor’s bodyguards responded in unison, “Understood, Ms. Bonnie!”
“All right, then. Take the rest away. I’ll give you orders on how to handle them shortly.” Bonnie waved for them to leave.
“Copy that,” the bodyguards responded again before working alongside the cops to drag Shane, Tom, Archie, and the rest away.
Shane saw the cops coming for him. He turned to Bonnie and begged, “I-I’m sorry, Ms. Bonita! I’ve learned from my mistakes. Please spare me and give me a chance to change. I swear never to do something like this again. Please, go easy on me, Ms. Bonita!”
