"What's wrong with you?" Seeing William like this, Lucas was in utter shock. William's shoes were broken, his collar was open, his body was dirty, and he smelled sweaty. It was as though he had just come out of a slum.
Hearing his voice, William suddenly turned around and grabbed him with a pale face. "Lucas, you came just right in time! Call Mary out for me! She doesn't want to see me! Hurry! Call her!"
Lucas felt so dizzy when he was shaken by William. "Is Mary here? Didn't she go back with you a long time ago?"
While they were talking, Barry walked out of the villa.
"Barry Gu!" As if going crazy again, William threw himself on him. "You bastard! Let Mary come out!"
"Who the hell is the bastard between us?" Barry suddenly punched William on the face.
"Damn it! Why are you two fighting?" Lucas rolled up his sleeves, intending to separate them.
Gasping for breath, Barry shouted, "Lucas, pull him away! He is crazy!"
"Okay, okay! Calm down, you two!" Lucas put the medicine box on the ground and looked for something. "Ah!" he exclaimed the moment he saw what he was looking for. He then rushed to William's back, stabbing the syringe into his arm.
Feeling the sting of the needle, William frowned. Before he could say anything, his huge body fell to the ground with a thud.
Swoosh! Gasping for breath, Barry asked, "What did you give him?"
"The anesthetic. It has the right amount to put a lion to sleep." Lucas squatted down beside William and pulled out the needle. He took a closer look and his eyes widened in shock. "Is he injured? I He has lost so much blood."
"Yeah. That's why I asked you to come here with your medicine box." Barry nodded in agreement.
"What happened?" Wide-eyed, Lucas thought, 'There are too many gunshots recently!'
"I don't know how he got that wound, but I know something else."
"Then tell me what happened," Lucas asked as he held William up from the pavement. "Let's send him home together. Tell me what happened."
"Okay." Barry responded with a nod. He walked over helplessly to support the other half of William's body.
Inside the car, Lucas was dealing with William's wound who was fast asleep as he listened to Barry's story.
"You know Sansa Liang, don't you? The matter about her had been concealed from Mary by William... Also, his affairs with Andy Duan and Beth An... Damn it! The videos have been exposed!" The more Barry spoke, the angrier he became.
"I knew it would be bad! I knew it!" Hearing this, Lucas was furious. "Frank is really someone you can't trust! That man will kill William sooner or later! I thought William would let it go after he reconciled with Mary. What a fool! I'm so mad!
What a bastard!" Lucas shook his head. Then, with furrowed brows, he continued, "I don't know what is on William's mind. I thought he hadn't had a woman for four years!" "Lucas," Barry called and looked at him from the rearview mirror, "I won't let go of Mary this time."
"You..." Lucas's heart skipped a beat. He thought for a while and said, "But Mary already has two kids with William."
"I have always regarded Alick and Elissa as my own children. It wouldn't be a problem." Barry sighed and continued, "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have let go of Mary back then."
"William has gone too far. He broke Mary's ear four years ago, and this time he could still slap her. Is he a man or not?" Gritting his teeth, Lucas pulled William's ear hard. "And those videos... By the way, do you know who hacked your company's computers?"
"I'm guessing it's Frank." Barry frowned slightly and said, "At that time, Mary and William were having a fight. It wouldn't be just a coincidence that the computers were hacked at that perfect timing. Someone obviously did it on purpose."
