Chapter 60
A few days later, something happened in Sogin. A bold man got into a fight with Hugh Sullivan from the Sullivan Family in Capiration and beat
The man was ruthless, reportedly breaking three of Hugh’s ribs, nearly killing him. Ironically, while this was happening, Sogin’s rich men and women were at Phantom Beats, celebrating a big shot’s birthday
Perhaps it was part of the plan. After beating Hugh, the mysterious man sent him straight to the birthday party, where many big shots were present. Some of them spotted Hugh, and they screamed, drawing everyone’s attention.
Hugh was lying there, bruised, and he was stripped down to nothing but his underwear.
Hugh was later sent to Sogin General Hospital, lying in bed, his face wrapped in bandages. Even his mouth was injured, tightly bandaged to the point of being unrecognizable.
Only his eyes were visible, and they burned with fury.
Not long ago, Hugh threw a massive tantrum, smashing everything within reach near his bed.
Standing stiffly at the door with a lunch box in hand was his bodyguard, Jacobs, whose face bore fresh bruises–thanks to Hugh.
Jacob scratched his head with a goofy grin, acting like the bruises on his face didn’t exist. “Mr. Sullivan, how about I take off the bandages for you! You really need to eat something.”
Being a bit blunt, Jacob didn’t realize he had said something wrong. He even cheerfully repeated his earlier words without a second thought
Then, as if struck by inspiration, he leaned closer and whispered, “Relax, Mr. Sullivan. No one’s gon
“Shut up. Thigh growled, his voice low and dangerous. He regretted bringing this fool along.
Jacob suddenly felt a chill running down his spine. He shrank back and hurriedly explained. “Don’t get me wrong. I was saying—”
see your gonna see
swollen face.”
Jacob scratched his head for a long time but couldn’t conse up with a decent explanation.
“I said, shut up!” Hugh snapped. The mere mention of his swollen face sent his emotions spiraling out of control, and he was about to throw another tantrum.
Underneath the layers of bandages, Hugh’s expression darkened. However, he had just thrown a tantrum, and after smashing things with too much force, his body ached terribly, leaving him with no strength to continue his outburst.
Therefore, he shouted angrily at Jacobs, “Get the fuck out of here!”
A moment later, someone entered the ward. Without even looking at him, Hugh shouted toward the door, “I said, get out!”
“Who are you kicking out?) Ethan said as he strolled in.
“Eiban
n? What are you doing here?” Hugh asked, surprised. He hadn’t told anyone about his hospitalization, so he didn’t expect Ethan to be here.
Ethan glanced at him, barely holding back a grin. “What do you think? Your story has already spread all over Sogin. Now, everyone knows you’re in the hospital.
“What are you talking about Hugh forgot all about his pain and sat up abruptly.
“See for yourself” Ethan banded him the phone from the table.
Hugh snatched it and quickly opened Twitter. The moment he saw the trending ti
