Chapter 145

Chapter 145Damage his phone Even though Dice was confused as to why there was a bunch of men coming
toward him and a lady shouting in the bathroom when it should only be Elijali and the janitor, he stood
his ground, ready to defend. “What is going on?” Dice firmly asked, glaring at Tony, the five men, and
Josh rushing toward him with a deadly aura surrounding them. “Step aside!” Tony shouted, puffing his
chest as he stopped in front of Dicc. “What do you guys want?” “Move!!”
Suddenly they heard Jessica screaming from within, her voice shaky, “Elijah, I am begging you… You
are hurting me!”
Aster overhearing the conversation outside, Elijah (rowned slightly as he reached into his coat pocket
with a sigh, and took out his phone, holding it against the left side of his chest, directing it casually at
Jessica, who was too busy playing her role to see that he was recording her.
Eyeing the two guys on his right, Tony winked at them as a signal, making both men rush for Dice,
causing him to step back from the door and stand his ground a few distances away.
The two rushed for him with the intent to put him in a choke hold, but Dice blocked their arms by
grabbing onto their sleeves before twisting, and punching one hard in his jaw. The other quickly jumped
forward to kick him in the ribs but Dice caught his foot and twisted, causing the man to stumble
backward into his partner who was trying desperately to get out of the way.
“Please, Elijah, stop!” Jessica’s voice echoed out and Josh rushed for the door, hitting it as he twisted
the door knob aggressively, shouting, “Get your hands off her, you bastard.”
Seeing how chaotic everything has become with his five men attacking Dice, trying to restrain him, and
Josh beating the door historically, Tony took out his phone and called Mr. Butcher.
It took a moment for Mr. Butcher to answer, but when he did, he sounded angry, “Have you gotten
Elijah yet?”“No, boss. The situation is way more severe, boss, and lias escalated. You might want to get
authorities involved and the ambulance… She sounds like he’s hurting her badly. She might need to
seek irealent.”
“Break the door down. I am calling Bamford.” Mr. Butcher hung up, and Tony sighed, seeing that his
five men were still struggling to detain Dice, even though they had him in their grips now, and yet they
weren’t able to subdue lim. “I need more manpower…” Tony growled under his breath, focusing back
on his phone screen After taking off her jumpsuit, Jessica absentininctly lossed it aside, avoiding
looking at Elijah because a slight sense of embarrassment was cating at her conscience, and then she
reached into her bag, screaming, “Slop ripping my clothes, Elijalı.” When she finally pulled out a
shredded dress, wearing it, Elijallait lis flash icon, and the light
hit Jessica’s face, making her blink from its brightness before her vision cleared, and then she finally
saw his black phone back that had three cameras on it directed at lier. “What the hell are you doing?”
Jessica whispered, realizing that she didn’t think far ahead in her plan. “Put it away.”
His eyes looked so bored as Elijah noticed the nervous look on her face, her eyes darting everywhere
except directly into his.
“No, please continue the show,” Elijah
said in a monotone voice. “Your acting is just priceless… Knowing who your father is, how much do you
think a news platform will be willing to pay to get their hands on this video?
Huh?”
Fear crept over Jessica’s features, seeing in Elijah’s eyes no soul as he talked to lier, and she knew
she had to save herself from his wrath by giving him a better enemy to release his anger“As you said, you and I have never had an issue… The truth is…” Jessica hesitated, looking around al
the door.
When she looked back at Elijahı, he seemed not to give a damn what she was about to say, and his
eyes were so dull that she didn’t know if he would actually buy whatever lie she was about to tell him.
“Can you stop recording first?” Jessica looked down at her feet, fidgeting nervously.
When Elijah didn’t respond immediately, Jessica continued, looking back at liim, “Josh threatened me
to do this… He said that if I didn’t cooperate he would hurt me… lle pressure me into doing this. He
said that you ruined his marriage, so I should help him destroy yours.”
– “Him,” Elijalı mumbled in an unamused tone.
Suddenly, a loud “boom” noise echoed from the door, making the two look at the door as it shook under
the force of Tony and the others banging into it with an iron. “Please, Elijalı, delete the video,” Jessica
begged, striving to sound weak and scared while also trying not to show her hate for him on her face.
Ignoring her, Elijah’s focus remained on the door, keeping his distance from it as it rattled forcefully, and
desperate, Jessica tried to make a quick run for him, seeing that his phone was still loosely in his grip.
But as she rushed for Elijah, the door slew open smacking her liard in the face, breaking her nose and
jaw, and sending her back with force against the concrete wall, causing her to groan in pain as blood
poured from the back of hier head.
Shocked, Elijah stood still, glad that his phone was still recording and had captured the incident. Then
when his gaze rested on Tony and the five men at the open doorway, he quickly saved the video, while
ignoring Tony’s voice, “Don’t try anything funny.” “I need you guys here. Things are about to go south.
We are upstairs on the second floor, east wing.” Elijah texted Larry before quickly shoving his phone
into the depths of his trouser pocket.“You fucking bastard!” Josh screamed, pushing through Tony and his men and rushing into the
bathroom for Elijah.
When he got close he struck with a punch, slamming his knuckles into Elijah’s jaw so hard that his
head shot back from the impact.
The taste of blood on his tongue made Elijah’s rage hit sky level, and he retaliated, grabbing Josh by
the neck before he could strike again, pulling him towards the faucet, and slamming his back into it
hard, knocking the wind out of Josh’s lungs.
Before he could recover from that hit, Elijah’s sist was already up in his face, hitting him straight across
the jaw twice…
Finally snapping out of their trance from the shock, Tony and his men rushed for Elijalı, panging up on
him, their fists swinging hard for his body, and although Elijah tried to block some of the hil, Tony’s blow
managed to rip the skin of his checkbone, and blood began to flow from the cut, running down his chin
and dripping on the marble floor beneath them.
Before they could restrain Elijah, Josh tried to make a comeback, but Elijah’s elbow slammed into liis
stomachi, causing him to lose his balance, banging his back again into the faucet, a Croan escaping
his lips as he slid down to the ground. Finally, they locked Elijah’s hands behind his back, and Tony
stood in front of him, his eyes dead as he mumbled, “So you want to play rough, then let’s dance.”
Tiphitening his fisi, Tony’s knuckles swung for Elijah’s face, meeting his right eye with a vigorous punch,
followed by a left hook that broke his lip, and anotlicr punch followed by a right cross
Pulling against his men’s restraints, Elijah groaned as they tightened their grip on him, pulling liim back“Ooohoho, this dog wants to bite! You want to bite me, Puchi. Woot! Bark, bitch, and maybe ! will go
easy on you!” Tony said sarcastically, smiling devilishly at Elijah before he punched him once more,
harder than before in the gut, causing Elijah to spit out more blood as it fell to the ground.
Overhearing the voices in the bathroom, Dice fought against the five men holding him down when he
recognized Elijah groaned, but his effort was in vain as each time one of the men pushed him against
the wall, his arms locked behind him, causing him to yelp in agony from the sharp pain that traveled
throughout his torso
“Where do you want to go, huh?!… want to save your shitty boss?! Trust me, what Tony is doing to
him, is nothing compared to the hell Jessica’s father will drag his ass in for what he has done to her.”
One of the men said, squashing Dice’s face hard against the wall.
“Tony,” A weak whisper made his fist stop midair, and then he turned to look back, his eyes widening to
see Jessica a couple of distance away from them, on the wall.
“Oh shit! Oh shit!” Tony cried beneath his breath, knowing that they were the reason she was in thal
state.
novelbin“G-et me h-is ph-one….”
“What did you say, Miss Jessica.” “The phone, Tony… Elijah’s phone… Damage il” “You want me to
damage Elijah’s phone?”
“Yes.”
Shrugging his shoulder slightly, Tony looked back at Elijah and then snorted as he said, “You heard the
lady.”
