Chapter 0785

“I call upon Mr. Frank Levett Sr. to testify. Unfortunately, he is unable to speak, as his tongue and vocal cords were cruelly severed. However, despite this tragedy, he remains strong and has developed a way to communicate through writing.

He revealed the gruesome details of what had been done to him–how he had lost his voice and his tongue. And the mastermind behind it all?

His own son.
