Chapter 2 It’s Him!

Snap!

The sharp sound of a slap broke the deadlock. In an instant, five clear fingerprints appeared on Beatrix’s face. Blood oozed from the corner of her mouth.

After a moment of shock, the pain on Beatrix’s face made her come back to her senses. She angrily shouted, “Xavier Cavanaugh, you… you… you useless piece of trash! How dare you hit me?”

The moment she finished cursing, five slaps sounded.

Xavier didn’t say anything. His response to Beatrix was a series of even more vicious slaps. The sound was like thunder, which meant that he had used much force.

Soon, Beatrix’s face swelled, her appearance totally unrecognizable. She collapsed to the ground, completely unconscious.

The Vanderbilt family’s bodyguards, upon seeing this, could no longer remain calm. They shouted and rushed over. At this point, Edward made a move. For a split second, he knocked down all the oncoming bodyguards.

When the Vanderbilt family members saw this, their faces suddenly darkened, their arrogance instantly extinguished.

Leopold, however, was still trying hard to appear calm. “You… You are not Xavier! Who… Who are you?” His voice trembling as if he had seen a ghost.

Xavier simply ignored his question. He held his sister’s body in his arms. As he passed by the child, he stopped in his tracks, saying, “Leopold Vanderbilt, I will spare your life today for the sake of the child, but I will come for you one day.” Then, he lowered his head and looked at Samantha’s pale face, murmuring, “Sammy, let me take you home…”

It wasn’t until Xavier had gone far away that everyone came back to their senses.

The corridor was now in an uproar.

The members of the Vanderbilt family were indignant, each one clamoring to kill Xavier.

“A bunch of idiots.” Leopold glanced at the bodyguards lying in disarray on the ground, a hint of gloom flashing in his eyes. The Xavier from several minutes ago was definitely not the Xavier he knew.

“Humph, the Vanderbilt family is the number one family in Oceanheim. Who the hell dares to offend me?” Leopold bellowed. “Wait and see, Xavier. I’ll kill you.”

Although it was midsummer, the cold wind still howled around the Eastern Suburb Cemetery. The cawing of crows could be heard from time to time, making people’s scalps tingle.

Xavier stood in front of the grave, his face calm and composed. Edward stood on the side, not saying a word.

Xavier squatted down and reached out, gently touching the photo of Samantha on the gravestone. His eyes were full of sorrow as he muttered under his breath, “Silly girl…Was it worth it?”
