Life After Prison by Silencieux (PDF) novel Chapter 43

Chapter 43 

“Screw you!” Severin fumed with rage. He could still tolerate it if other people badmouthed him, but the one thing he could never accept was hearing someone call his daughter a b*stard child! 

In a flash, he kicked Edward in the stomach and sent the latter tumbling to the ground. 

“Ack!” Edward spat out a mouthful of blood. A shocked expression appeared on his face, as if bewildered at being kicked by a loser like Edward. 

“Why is it so hard for you to keep your composure, Severin?” Diane was horrified because she knew that Edward was the scion of a second-tier upper-class family. While there was no doubt that she was just as angry at Edward for the things he said, Severin’s reaction would only make things worse! 

“Honey, I can bear with many things, but hearing this son-of-a-b*tch calling Selene a b*stard isn’t one of them!” Severin said angrily. 

“Why are you guys just standing there? Beat him up!” Edward struggled to get up and ordered his bodyguards viciously. 

“Mom, I’m scared!” Selene was frightened by the sudden development in the situation and hugged Diane’s thigh at once. Severin started to regret his actions when he saw how scared his daughter was. Hitting people might feel good for him, but a frightening experience was hardly ideal for his daughter. 

At that moment, however, the four bodyguards had already begun to attack him. Their stance and the way they swung their fists were a clear sign that they were trained individuals, and Severin had no choice but to fight back. He punched them several times in quick succession, and the four bodyguards were all thrown to the ground before they could even land a blow on his body. 

“Arghh!” The four bodyguards writhed on the ground and clutched their chests. 

“Get up, you losers! I told you to bear him up!” Edward yelled as he retreated. Severin’s skills had scared him out of his wits. 

“Sir, I…I feel like my ribs are broken!” One of the bodyguards finally stood up and said with a wince. 

“Sir, mine are broken too!” 

The other three bodyguards said the same thing too.
