Chapter 647
"Stop!"
Loomis yelled out.
Chuck was standing too close to him. If the bomb exploded, he would definitely die!
Some members of the Yeager family backed away in fear, their expressions panicky.
They were members of a hidden family with wealth and glory. They could easily obtain anything they wanted in this world.
They still had a long life of enjoyment ahead of them. They certainly did not want to die here just like that.
Brooke was even twitching nervously.
This piece of scum was really something!
"Is he not afraid at all?"
"You'd rather die than ask for my favour?" Adriana muttered to herself.
She felt a sense of loss overtake her. It upset her tremendously...
"Why should I stop? Didn't you threaten me with death just now? Why should I let you live if that's the case?” Chuck said indifferently.
"D*mn it! You're nothing! My life is a thousand times more precious than yours! How dare you compare yourself to me!" Loomis was furious.
"Oh, is that what you think? Well, that doesn't change anything here, does it? I'm still able to bring you down with me, aren't I?" Chuck shrugged.
Loomis trembled in anger. If Chuck didn't have a bomb in his hand now, he would have killed him with his bare hands!
Chuck was just too calm.
Those fighters who had beaten and kicked Chuck before were staring at him with panicked despair.
Fear had made its way into their hearts.
Who wouldn't be afraid of death?
Even so, no one had expected Chuck to stand there looking all calm and collected while holding a bomb in his hands. He did not look afraid in the slightest.
No one was more terrifying than a person who was not afraid of death.
Loomis glared even harder as he threatened, "You know what, I don't believe you in the slightest! All your false bravado... Well, if you're so unafraid to die, I dare you to detonate the bomb right now! As if you have the guts..."
Bang!
Before Loomis could even finish his sentence, he was dealt with a heavy slap.
The crisp sound of his face getting smacked echoed throughout the hall.
Loomis stumbled and fell to the ground, his face filled with shock.
The other family members stared at him, dumbfounded.
This was because it was Brooke, the Yeager family's master, who had slapped him.
Brooke's face had darkened tremendously.
"Grandpa, why did you slap me?" Loomis lamented as he pulled himself up, clasping his reddening cheek.
"Do you want half of the Yeager family to die? B*stard, did your brain collapse on itself?!" Brooke yelled.
He had met his fair share of people in life.
However, he had never met someone like Chuck before. His eyes were placid, cold and unfeeling, but there was a fiery sense of determination brewing underneath his gaze!
It was obvious that Chuck would not hesitate to detonate the bomb and kill off half of the Yeager family's members.
How could a nobody like Chuck hold so much power over them?!
Loomis felt aggrieved as he rubbed his face, glaring at Chuck angrily. It was all because of him! Why did he have to get humiliated like this over and over again?!
"Well, at least someone here has some sense," Chuck shrugged.
"Oh, you're really impressive, I'll give you that," Brooke hissed.
"I'm not used to people pointing their guns at me. Could you please ask your bodyguards to leave? Otherwise, my hands might tremble in fear and I'm afraid I'll drop something," Chuck said with a smile. "What? Is fear really something that exists in your vocabulary?" Brooke snorted.
"Yes, of course. Look, my hands are shaking," Chuck said, forcing his hands to tremble.
Brooke was almost convulsing in fear now. Everyone retreated in horror, including Loomis.
What the f*ck, there was actually a madman in the house!
Loomis was enraged!
"Stop it! Stop moving so much! I'll have all the snipers retreat! Surely you don't want to die here with us, right?" Brooke said, trying to calm himself down.
There was a commotion nearby as some people tried to leave.
"Of course I don't, but an idiot threatened my life just now. If that's the case, I have no choice but to do this," Chuck shrugged indifferently.
Willa was touched. She felt safe with Chucky like this. It was a feeling of security that she had never experienced before.
She really liked this feeling.
"Fine then. Leave, I'll allow it. You can leave with her," Brooke said coldly.
His gaze did not waver from Chuck as he spoke.
He would have him assassinated as soon as he left the house.
Loomis was enraged but had a sudden moment of clarity.
So what if Chuck survived this time?
Once he left and went back home, Loomis would make sure to have his whole family tortured and slaughtered.
He would destroy Chuck's family before his eyes! This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
"Alright," Chuck replied, nodding his head in agreement.
At that, everyone heaved out a sigh of relief.
"You can leave now!" Brooke spat.
"Before I do, I have one request," Chuck looked back at him steadily.
"Oh? A request? What else do you want to ask for?" Brooke narrowed his eyes.
"It's dark outside. I need some of your people to accompany us on our way out. Since this is a simple request of mine, you'll surely agree to me, right?" Chuck said.
Brooke could not help but heave violently.
What the f*ck!
The rest of the Yeager family members let out a shriek of undignified rage at Chuck's request.
"What the hell are you asking for? You want us to accompany you? Who do you think you are? You're nothing but trash! Do you think you're worthy of our company?!" A woman shouted at him.
"That's right! How dare you compare yourself to us!" Another piped up in a furious tone.
"My, what a ruckus, how annoying. I've changed my mind now, let's all die together!" Chuck moved his finger onto the switch once more.
"Ah!"
"No, don't! You madman!"
"What the f*ck, he's out of his mind! I don't want to die!"
The Yeager family members flew into an immediate panic.
The atmosphere in the hall was tense.
"So, what do you say? I just need some of you to accompany me. That's all I'm asking for..." Chuck smiled slightly.
The cunning smile grated Brooke's nerves.
He could not believe that the Yeager family was being terrorized by a madman.
This was the first time they'd ever encountered such a situation.
"Alright, fine! I'll let you bring someone with you!" Brooke answered with a cold nod.
"Grandpa, no! He's crazy!"
"That's right! You can't do this!"
The Yeager family members protested in horror.
Someone? Who was this someone that Brooke had willingly volunteered?
"Shut up! As descendants of the Yeager family, you should all understand my decision!" Brooke chided.
He had to safeguard the rest of the family members by sacrificing a few of them.
Brooke had made his choice. He chose to comply with this exchange.
However, he swore that once Chuck set\ his foot out this door, he would have him killed immediately.
No one could withstand the wrath of the Yeager family.
The crowd kept their mouths shut at that.
Pin drop silence was heard in the hall.
"Just one? No, change your terms. That's too small a number," Chuck snickered.
Brooke was furious! He could not believe this man!
"I want three of you to come with me! Three of you have to accompany us, or I'll detonate the bomb right here, right now!" Chuck said relentlessly with a determined gaze.
Brooke knew that if he did not agree to those terms, Chuck would really do as he had threatened.
"Fine!"
"That was easy. D*mn it, I should've asked for more... Well then, let's get going then," Chuck shrugged and committed to it.
Brooke heaved a sigh of relief at the easy agreement that had transpired.
On the other hand, the Yeager family members started to tremble. Who would those three people be?
"Who do you want to take with you?" Brooke asked.
"Oh, that woman who scolded me just now. What? Why are you looking at me like that? Yeah, you! The one in the white dress, come over here now!" Chuck pointed at the woman who had been
yelling at him just now.
"Ah, please, don't take me! Don't..." Stacy Yeager cried. She did not want to be a hostage.
She still had a good life ahead of her and a drawer full of branded cosmetic products waiting for her at home. She did not want to die like this.
"I don't care. You're coming with me. This is what you get for yelling at me," Chuck said.
"No... Grandpa, please help me," Stacy ran up to Brooke, pleading for his help.
Brooke merely landed a hard slap on her face.
"You useless wench, listen to him!" Brooke chided.
Sobbing, Stacy eventually got up and walked up to Chuck. She thought he was a lunatic! She hated him.
He was nothing but trash!
She could not believe that he had picked her as his hostage.
"Was it fun yelling at me just now?" Chuck teased wickedly.
"I'm sorry. Please, let me go! I'm only eighteen..." Stacy cried.
Smack!
Chuck landed a slap on her face.
She fell to the ground with a yelp and looked up at him in horror.
"Shut up. I can't even stand the sound of your voice," Chuck glared at her.
Stacy sobbed, but did not dare to make another sound after that.
"As for the second person... You there!" Chuck looked around before he pointed to someone.
All the members of the Yeager family were trembling in fear. All except for one, who was trembling as well, but in rage as he grumbled, "What the f*ck, you little...."
The second person Chuck had picked was Loomis.
