Fortunate to Have You This Lifetime

Chapter 505: Share Half (Pig-Riding Tree Climbing Reward Boost)_1

Gavin Graves stepped outside and lit a cigarette.

A moment later, Gerald Graves helped Mrs. Graves to come out.

Having witnessed the malicious intentions of the Foster family mother and daughter, Mrs. Graves had calmed down from her anger, but reflecting on the whole incident, she still felt terrified.

Gerald asked, “Brother, has Ms. Summers left?”

Gavin nodded, glancing at him, “This time we owe her one. I’ll take you to thank her personally another day.”

Gerald nodded repeatedly, smiling, “Yes, we should, definitely should.”

With the matter concluded, the three of them left Apricot Village.

Leroy was taken away by the police, but the Foster mother and daughter were left behind. ——This was likely an unwritten rule; offenders who had wronged the four major families needed to let them have their satisfaction first, as a favor, and whether they ended up dead or alive afterwards, nobody cared.

…

In the courtyard, Zack Wallace and Lester Williams could not agree on how to deal with Bella Foster.

“Mr. Williams, this woman bribed kidnappers to ruin my lady; I must take her away to be accountable to Master Xander,” Zack said.

Lester Williams spoke amiably, “Mr. King, our second young master has been greatly frightened and we can’t just let it go. If you take her away, it… wouldn’t sit right with us here either.”

It was certain that Bella Foster was the mastermind; as for Mrs. Foster, she might have given behind-the-scenes advice or simply protected her daughter, which couldn’t be confirmed just yet.

It seemed they would have to wait for the fifty-year-old woman that Leroy mentioned to appear before they could understand the full story. Therefore, neither party was in a hurry to lay hands on Mrs. Foster.

After a deadlock, Zack Wallace heaved a sigh and negotiated with Lester Williams, “How about this, we split her in half. Is that alright?”

Lester was taken aback, not understanding what ‘splitting in half’ meant.

Zack asked him,”Do you want the upper half, or the lower half? The left side, or the right side?”

Lester Williams: “…”

Seeing that he didn’t respond, Wallace just took it as an agreement and gestured to his men, “Cut her from left to right, leave half for Mr. Williams. Make it quick— the sooner it’s done, the sooner we can go eat.”

Two men, as if accustomed to this work, dragged Bella Foster up and tied her hands to a tree in the courtyard, then one of them took a sharp knife and forcefully sliced down like butchering a pig—gutting her!

Mrs. Foster watched in horror as her daughter was cleaved in two right before her eyes, and she screamed in terror!

Lester Williams hadn’t expected to witness such a gory scene and frowned slightly.

The head, however, was not easy to deal with; a dozen chops with a knife still hadn’t managed to split the head in two.

Eventually, even Zack Wallace lost patience, irritably saying, “Forget it, forget it. Leave a bit more for Mr. Williams.”

His tone still carried a sense of condescension.

In the end, they chopped the severed half into several pieces and packed them into a hemp sack, saying they would take it to feed crocodiles.

“Actually, we are quite civilized most of the time, throwing the whole body into the crocodile pond, convenient and clean, and it doesn’t tire out the brothers. But we worried you might have trouble reporting back, so we took the trouble to leave half,” Zack explained as he patted Lester on the shoulder before leaving.

Lester didn’t understand; what did throwing a body into a crocodile pond have to do with being civilized?

After Zack had left with his men, Lester’s subordinates shakily approached him, asking, “Steward, what should we do with this remaining half?”

Lester sighed in annoyance, “Go dig a hole in the mountains and bury it.”

It was too gruesome to be brought before Young Master Graves.

“And… Mrs. Foster?” the subordinate asked.

Mrs. Foster had fainted from shock after witnessing her daughter being dismembered.

“She’s probably gone mad from fright, useless to keep her, send her back for now,” said Lester.

[This chapter is quite intense. The male lead is indeed very dark, urgently in need of the female lead to purify him. It won’t be like this later on.]
