Betrayed, Then Back For Blood

Chapter 320

Jewell and his three men were utterly helpless, firmly pinned to the ground by Brandon and lan on either side.

They confessed everything they knew in detail.

They had no other choice.

If they dared to keep silent, Brandon and lan would grind them against the ground.

And they meant that literally. Their exposed skin was already raw and bloody.

This interrogation method was not lethal, but it was excruciatingly painful.

The pain was so intense that even gut–wrenching screams couldn’t relieve the burning sensation.

Then, the four of them scrambled to confess, afraid of being tortured again if they were too slow.

Ashton and Briar leaned against the car door, their expressions growing darker as they listened to the confessions of Jewell and the other three men.

Seeing Briar’s face tense with anger, Ashton joked, “Briar, it seems our counterattack has been too slow, making them think we’re not a real threat.”

A scalpel glinted in Briar’s hand, moving so fast it left afterimages. “Then let’s stop holding back. It’s time to show them our true strength and play for real.”

Ashton nodded. “Alright, let’s have some real fun with them.”

Brandon came over. “Ashton, Ma’am, the interrogation is finished. We’ve squeezed them dry.”

Ashton glanced at the four half–dead men on the ground, unmoved by the blood covering them. “Have someone take them to the police station. Consider it our contribution to their monthly quota.”

Brandon nodded. “Understood.”

He then took out his phone and called his men to take them away.

Ian circled the four men, not yet finished, aiming his gun back and forth at their heads and hearts.

He seemed to be searching for the best position and angle to shoot.

Jewell and the other three were so scared they held their breath, terrified that Ian’s gun might accidentally discharge, sending a bullet into their heads or hearts.

Fortunately, Brandon called Ian back to the car.
