The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 29 The Heirs From Dhord City

“Please, don’t! I don’t want to die!” Timothy begged pitifully.

*Please have mercy. All I did was tease Lady Willow. I didn’t do anything else!” Jonathan was scared out

of his wits.

In the face of death, both men wet themselves out of fright.

They had committed their fair share of killing and looting. They were savages themselves. But fear

swamped them when they faced such a situation.

Timothy was full of regret. He shouldn’t have had any ulterior motives toward Willow. Now, he was going

to lose his life.

Jonathan felt the same way. He didn’t do anything at all. He accompanied Xenia to the gathering because

he wanted to show off. He merely had some impure intentions toward Willow. Yet his life was now in

danger!

“Do it!” Sylvia ordered.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Several gunshots pierced the air.

Timothy and Jonathan were both dead.

Caspian dropped Zoey off outside her apartment.

Zoey was worried Caspian couldn’t hold the wedding as promised.

She offered, “Caspian, let me know if you have financial difficulties. I hope for Willow to have a proper

wedding, too.”

“You? Do novelists have deep pockets? Caspian asked calmly.

“Hmph! Are you looking down on me? I’m a pretty well-known author. I can earn up to tens of thousands a

month!” Zoey replied proudly.

Caspian was surprised. “Oh, you can earn that much?”

He was adept in military affairs but didn’t understand much about matters like this.
