Chapter 227 Either You Die or He Dies
Jessica, dressed in a white dress embroidered with red roses, strode in gracefully. She glanced at the unconscious Mary on the floor and the severely injured and screaming Isaac, and said calmly, "I'm taking Isaac back."
With that, several bodyguards behind Jessica stepped forward, intending to take Isaac away.
They didn't seek William's consent at all, completely disregarding him.
At this moment, Margaret looked up, and when she saw Jessica, she was utterly terrified! She thought, 'It's her. It's her.'
The woman who had once taught her a lesson!
Margaret's pupils dilated rapidly. She would remember Jessica for the rest of her life, especially those slaps, which were deeply etched in her memory!
She knew Jessica was a very formidable woman, and now she was in her family's villa.
It seemed like she was here to rescue Isaac.
Did William actually know this woman?
"It's you. You're the one who slapped me last time!" Margaret pointed at Jessica and stammered..
Jessica just gave a cold glance, and that icy look pierced straight through Margaret's heart, scaring her into quickly covering her mouth and shutting up.
"Take him away," Jessica said coldly, and the bodyguards behind her stepped forward again.
"I dare you," Craig suddenly shouted, standing in front of William, glaring angrily at the dozens of bodyguards in black suits.
His whole body exuded a violent aura, no less than those well-trained bodyguards of the Miller family!
"Move," the leading bodyguard in a black suit, wearing sunglasses, said coldly to Craig.
In his eyes, Craig just looked strong. He could take Craig down with one move.
Pathetic!
They were all rigorously trained bodyguards, skilled in various martial arts, and deadly!
Suddenly, a few more bodyguards stepped forward, exuding a cold killing intent, intended to press down on Craig.
Craig felt the overwhelming killing intent like a waterfall, and he involuntarily took a few steps back.
But Craig still stood up straight again and shouted angrily, "Come on! Let's see who dares to make a move. I'll be the first to take him down!"
To protect Mr. Jones!
This was Craig's only belief now.
Even if it meant sacrificing his own life, Craig would do it.
The leader of the bodyguards, his eyes cold behind his sunglasses, tilted his head slightly, and another bodyguard stepped forward to make a move.
One punch!
The bodyguard's punch hit Craig's chest and abdomen. Craig didn't even see how the other party moved before he was hit, stumbling back several meters.
Craig was shocked; the opponent was too strong.
But he couldn't fall just like that!
Mr. Jones was still here!
In an instant, Craig sprang up, clenching his fists and charging forward!
But with one kick, Craig was sent flying, crashing into a pillar, causing half of it to crack.
Craig endured the pain, got to his feet again, and charged forward, but William stopped him, looked at him, and said, "Enough, that's enough."
William knew very well that Craig was no match for the opponent.
Continuing like this was just seeking death.
These people were special bodyguards of the Miller family; each was selected through rigorous processes.
They were not someone Craig could easily beat.
The leading bodyguard looked at Craig with disdain, and then stepped towards the miserably screaming Isaac.
But at this moment, William said slowly, "Today, anyone who dares to take him away, I'll wipe out his entire family, including the Miller family!"
The voice was not loud but clear, and it sent a shiver through everyone who heard it.
Jessica frowned, staring at William with cold eyes, and said, "Take him away."
As soon as she finished speaking, the bodyguards stepped forward, pressuring William, "Mr. Jones, please show mercy. Ms. Miller wants this man."
Yes, Jessica was still Ms. Miller in the Miller family.
Although these people might fear the Jones family, their lives belonged only to the Miller family.
"You can try," William said calmly, not caring at all about the other party's men.
The leading bodyguard was silent for a moment and then said, "Mr. Jones, don't blame us for being rude."
With that, he waved his hand and shouted, "Go!"
Several bodyguards behind him rushed out, intending to restrain William.
One of them reached out to grab William's wrist.
Suddenly, there was a flash of cold light!
A dagger pierced through the hand of the bodyguard.
"Ah!" the bodyguard screamed as he clutched his hand, groaning and quickly retreating!
Dozens of bodyguards immediately surrounded Jessica protectively, pulling out batons from their jackets!
It all happened in an instant!
Just like that.
Dozens of eyes were tightly fixed on the lazy figure that suddenly appeared behind William.
Everyone's scalp tingled, and their bodies tensed up.
When did this man appear?
He managed to evade the eyes of dozens of bodyguards!
Such a man must be incredibly skilled!
The leading bodyguard instantly realized it!
Just from that dagger throw, it was clear that this man's skills were terrifying!
"Mr. Jones, how would you like me to kill them?" the man behind William asked. He had a clean face that seemed harmless, but his eyes were exceptionally cold.
As he spoke, the smile on his lips made people feel as if they were being stared at by the Grim Reaper.
"Leave none alive. Cripple them all," William said coldly, a frightening look flashing in his eyes.
"Attack!" the leading bodyguard roared, and the dozens of bodyguards behind him charged forward.
The man behind William just glanced at them, a disdainful smile curling his lips, and said, "Easy as pie."
There sounds of hitting and thrashing filled the air.
In just a few minutes, bodies flew, and cries of pain echoed, turning the entire villa's living room into chaos.
William and Jessica stood on opposite sides, staring at each other.
In just a moment, all the bodyguards Jessica had brought were lying on the ground, each with their hands or feet crippled, completely losing their combat ability.
The man stood among the fallen, blood-stained bodies, with blood droplets on his face.
He stood up, twirled the dagger in his hand, and tossed it to William behind him.
William caught it, twirled the dagger, and then suddenly threw it!
The dagger shot towards Jessica, slicing a lock of her black hair from the side of her fair neck.
At that moment, Jessica's throat visibly moved, and cold sweat appeared on her forehead.
But she still stood there proudly, not even glancing at the fallen bodyguards. Instead, she coldly stared at William and asked, "What will it take for you to let Isaac go?"
The entire dagger suddenly plunged down!
Isaac, who had already fainted from the pain, woke up again and screamed, "Aunt Jessica, save me. Save me. I don't want to die! I'm your nephew. Save me!"
Jessica coldly stared at Isaac and scolded, "Shut up!"
Isaac quickly closed his mouth, enduring the pain.
"Terms," Jessica said as she turned to William. "You must have terms. I can meet them."
William stepped forward, grabbing Isaac's hair, and coldly said to Jessica, "Jessica, I used to fear you, so I chose to compromise and lie low. You thought I was useless, so was everyone else, but you didn't expect that for the past seven years, I lived cautiously just so that one day, I could kill you with my own hands."
Jessica's expression changed as she read a hint of killing intent in William's eyes.
William had already known.
All along, Jessica had never truly regarded William as a threat. Her main concerns were other members of the Jones family and Mario.
But now, William's display of strength was terrifying.
This sleeping tiger had finally awakened.
William directly pulled Isaac up and kicked him to the ground in front of Jessica. Then he threw the dagger at Jessica's feet, coldly staring at her beautiful face, and said, "Today, there are only two choices; either you die, or he dies."
