Chapter 1477
“But Mr. Wright Senior, if you push me too far… I do know powerful people. And I’m not afraid to call them in,” Mosby warned, his eyes narrowing.
Kevin let out a cold snort. He clearly did not like the threat, but in the end, he held back. After all, Mosby was Blumedale’s famed Medical Master–someone even the Wrights could not touch carelessly.
However, Andrew had no such reservations. He stepped forward and slapped Mosby twice across the face, loud and hard.
Mosby stood there in shock, eyes wide in disbelief. “Andrew… did you just slap me? You have a death wish!”
He roared with rage, about to retaliate. He had already surrendered, yet Andrew still laid hands on him.
That was downright disrespectful.
Andrew did not flinch. “You’re a damn stray dog, Mosby. And you dared to threaten Kevin? You’re lucky I don’t kill you where you stand!”
Then, he turned to Kevin and said, “Kevin, don’t stop me. I have to crush this bastard. If he disrespects you, then he disrespects me, and I’m not about to let that slide.”
As he spoke, Andrew slapped Mosby twice more, leaving his ears ringing. However, that was not all–he started kicking, knocking the old man over, and sending him rolling across the dirt like a rag doll.
Mosby howled, enraged. “Andrew, I’ll kill you, I swear!”
He would rather die on the spot than endure this humiliation. He had never experienced such treatment in his entire life, and the shame was unbearable.
Kevin’s face twitched as he called out, “Alright, that’s enough, Andy. Mosby may be an ass, but the man’s got influence. If you go too far, it might backfire on the Wrights.”
Andrew immediately replied, “Of course, Kevin! Since you asked, I’ll stop.”
Yet, even as he agreed, his hands kept moving.
Two more slaps echoed through the courtyard.
Then, just for good measure, he kicked Mosby in the backside, sending him face-first into the ground with a mouthful of dirt.
Mosby’s rage reached a boiling point. His face twisted in fury as he scrambled to his feet, ready to fight back.
Kevin snapped, “Andy! That’s enough--no more hitting! And you, Mosby, don’t even think about fighting back, or I’ll make it ugly.”
At this point, even Kevin had to admit that Andrew might be using him as cover to settle his own score. Sure, the slaps were satisfying. However, when Mosby came back for revenge, it would not be Andrew who paid the price–it’d be the Wrights.
Andrew, meanwhile, stood tall with righteous fury. “Don’t take it personally, Mosby. I slapped you because you disrespected Kevin. He might not be in a position to do it himself, but I can. You want someone to blame? Blame him for holding me back!”
Mosby’s eyes were burning with hatred. He glared at Kevin, realization dawning. Kevin had watched the whole thing happen and done nothing.
He silently cursed at them, believing the entire Wright family deserved to rot. He would never forget this humiliation.
Kevin’s facial twitching only got worse. He stared at Andrew, this time with a faint warning in his eyes. Sure, this so-called sworn brother of his had helped him win, but he could not shake the feeling that Andrew was controlling everything from the very start.
The Wrights appeared to have won, but they had also made enemies of several dangerous characters in the process.
At that moment, Andrew smiled and said, “Kevin, Tora has caught Quinton. Don’t you want to go check out that treasure map?”
The unease in Kevin’s heart immediately disappeared completely as he burst into delighted laughter. “Of course, of course! A treasure map–if it really falls into the Wrights’ hands, then in ten years’ time, Blumedale won’t have the Three Titans anymore, but Four Titans instead!”
Laughing wildly, Kevin marched toward the detained Quinton, leaving Andrew and a bound, beaten Mosby.
“You’ll die a horrible death,” Mosby spat, his voice laced with venom.
