What he said was extremely harsh! If it was someone else who heard what Kingston had said, the person might truly take it to heart and end his life. Kingston knew that his words were harsh as well. However, what did it have to do with him? He did not kill anybody or set any place on fire, so if the person were to die, then that person deserved it! He was simply that harsh!
Deacon was the first one to drive others to the brink of death anyway. Since he had already made up his mind to force a young girl to a dead end and force her to death, then he should be the first to die!
"Don't wail at our company anymore. You can either get out and die or go home to wait for the demand letter to be delivered. Also, while you're at that, get the money for us prepared." Kingston looked at Deacon without any expression on his face.
"Mister Yates..." Deacon said.
"Usher the guest out!" Kingston was incomparably straightforward.
Deacon grabbed the corners of the table with both his hands. "No. Ee-1 mean, Missus Yates, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Seeing that I...seeing that I used to be your boss, could you...save my life? I'm begging you."
Eevonne looked at Deacon calmly. "Mister Lowe, I have never begged you to save my life. Even when I was at my worst, when I was hugging my legs and crying by myself on the streets, or when I had no way out anymore and wanted to die, I had never begged you to save my life. Not only have I not begged you, but I've never looked for you and asked you to make up for all the unfair treatments you've shown me back then. What I never would have expected was that you actually hunted and came after me to the point of coming to my company. I already have so many people in the company testifying for me that I didn't falsify anything, didn't lie to the company, and my performance at work is very outstanding. However, you still wouldn't let me go. Have you ever thought about it? Are you simply not going to stop until I am dead? I won't hope that you can save my life. I'm only asking for you to not hunt me down. Can you promise me that?"
Deacon was speechless.
"Up until now, I still don't know why you leave the countless matters of your company aside, and you insist on getting rid of me so viciously? I'll ask you the same thing, have I done something as heinous as digging up your ancestor's grave?" As Eevonne said that, she was already crying.
If Kingston had not rushed over in time, she truly would have been finished off right there that day. A person's mind truly could be so vicious that there was no limit at all. Since he was able to be so vicious, why did he ask for mercy? How ugly!
"I know that I'm wrong. I'll never dare to do it again. There are elderly and children in the family that depend on me. I even have two children studying abroad. My wife's health is not too good as well. I...the reason I did this was that I truly wanted to obtain the Ford Group's orders too badly. However, you...you're working in the Ford Group. I was really disgusted when I saw that. The main thing is that I'm afraid you would secretly pull some tricks and create trouble for me in the future when we're collaborating. Therefore, I was thinking to be heartless and get rid of you. This way, our upcoming collaboration with the Ford Group will be good for several years. I can't let the future of my company be all ruined in your hands. The other thing is..."
Speaking of that, Deacon glanced at Dash, who kept looking down and not saying a word. Throughout the entire time, Dash had never raised his head. Nobody could see what kind of expression he had at that time. When Deacon thought about it, he did all that because he was more or less egged on by Dash at that time. It turned out that Dash's determination to get rid of Eevonne from the Ford Group was no less than his. He seemed to have been used by Dash!
"Dash!" Deacon suddenly called out. "Why are you not saying anything? Don't you forget that I initially did not know that Everyone was working at the Ford Group. It was because I heard you telling me that Eevonne is working in the Ford Group that we came over together. Don't you have anything to say now that
we're at this moment?"
Dash still kept his head down and did not say a word.
Kingston, however, shouted unexpectedly, "Mister
Long, he is asking you a question. Lift up your head."
