Chapter 2732

Just as Thomas pointed his gun toward Senior Howard, the guards lunged forward and grabbed him
from behind.

Bang!

Thomas‘ gun discharged amid the scuffle.

All he wanted was to use the gun to scare the guards. After all, he knew he was outnumbered and had
no other way of ensuring his and Yannie‘s safety, so the gun was the only way to leave Howard
Mansion alive.

However, he never thought that just as he was about to let off a warning shot to keep the guards at bay,
the leader grabbed hold of his arm and accidentally set off the gun, sending a bullet straight toward
Senior Howard.

“Agh!” Senior Howard instinctively grabbed hold of his abdomen.

The bullet pierced into his belly.

“Senior Howard!” Tina let out a shriek and immediately sprinted toward him. “Are you okay? Someone
call a – doctor! Someone call an ambulance!” !

Thomas and the guards, who were engaged in a scuffle, froze when they heard this.

Thomas stared dazedly at his father, then lowered his head to glance at the gun.

Did he...accidentally hurt that old geezer?



“Are you happy now?” Tina shot Thomas a murderous glare. “He‘s your father, for God‘s sake! Has he
ever mistreated you apart from sending you away from home and refusing to let you take over the
family business?

“From the moment you turned ten, we‘ve given you money for your allowance every month, so what do
you even have against him? Why did you shoot him?”

Thomas furrowed his brow and opened his mouth, intending to say something, but no words came out.

Meanwhile, Yannie bit her lip and clasped his hand.

The warmth of her palm finally brought Thomas out of his daze.

He furrowed his brow and said coldly, “I never intended to shoot at him, much less kill him.”

He was just trying to warn the guards to stay away from him and Yannie.

Tina bit her lip and glared first at Thomas, then at the guards behind him. “This bastard shot the man of
the house, for God‘s sake! Why haven‘t you captured him yet?

The guards immediately came to and finally pressed Thomas against the ground.

“He didn‘t mean to do it!” Yannie watched fearfully as Thomas‘ hands were restrained behind his back
like a prisoner. She bit her lip and tried to push the guards away, all the while protesting, “He never
intended to shoot at anyone! The reason the gun discharged was because you had caught him by
surprise–“.

“Shut up, you!” Denise snapped before Yannie could even finish her sentence. She sneered as she
glanced at Thomas , then strode over to Yannie and lifted her arm.

Smack!



A hard slap landed on Yannie‘s face as Denise snarled,” Would this have happened if it weren‘t for
you? How dare you even speak? Who do you think you are?”

Despite being pressed against the ground, Thomas witnessed Yannie being slapped, and he
immediately struggled against his bonds. “Don‘t you dare touch her!”

This was all his fault.

He should not have trusted Tina so easily, much less brought Yannie along with him to such a
dangerous place!
