Chapter 323 Noble Command is Here, Who Would Dare to Disobey!
His gaze was icy, radiating a chilling light.
The room was filled with a murderous intent.
William stared intently at Zephyrus, approaching him step by step. He grabbed Zephyrus by the collar, lifting him off the ground, and said coldly, "Zephyrus, since you don't cherish your own life, I won't cherish it for you."
Zephyrus raised his head, blood dripping from his mouth, and arrogantly said, "William, don't try to scare me. If you had the guts to do it, you would have done it already. You're just trying to intimidate me. Would you really dare to kill me? Are you willing to give up your status as the family heir?"
Zephyrus's confidence came from the family decree.
It was forbidden to kill family members!
"Do you think I care about that family decree?" William said coldly, his eyes revealing a fierce murderous intent.
Seeing William's gaze, Zephyrus shuddered and stammered, "What are you doing?"
William threw a powerful punch at Zephyrus's stomach, causing it to churn and making him spit out blood.
Then, William kicked him again, hitting Zephyrus's chest and abdomen. With the previous kick, at least five or six ribs were broken!
Zephyrus lay on the ground , speaking painfully while struggling to breathe with blood in his mouth. "You can't kill me! I'm from the branch family!"
Zephyrus squeezed out this sentence through gritted teeth, watching William approach him with a cold expression and clenched fists.
At that moment, he finally felt the breath of death.
William was really going to kill him!
"Zephyrus, you bullied my wife, hit my daughter, and repeatedly challenged my bottom line. Even if you are from the branch family, I will kill you today, and no one can save you!" William said coldly, throwing a punch filled with immense anger.
Zephyrus's pupils contracted as he watched the iron fist fall toward his face, crying out, "Grandpa, save me! Save me!"
Suddenly, a cold voice shouted from the doorway.
"Stop! Who dares to touch my grandson!"
An old man appeared at the villa's entrance, a dozen orderly guards behind him, all staring intently at the scene in the living room.
This old man had graying hair at his temples, a cold face, a hooked nose, and a rebellious look in his eyes. He stood with his hands behind his back, exuding an aura of authority.
Standing beside him was Jessica, dressed in a long white gown, holding a white Persian cat with heterochromatic eyes, wearing a faint, almost imperceptible cold smile.
William's punch stopped abruptly in mid-air, and he turned to see the old man.
Zephyrus was overjoyed, assuming he was saved. He cried out desperately, snot and tears streaming down his face as he shouted, "Grandpa, you finally came. You must teach this jerk a lesson! He bullied me and wants to kill me. Grandpa, you must punish him severely, and it would be best to join the Hall of Justice and strip him of his heir status!"
Zephyrus cried out tearfully.
"William! How dare you commit violence under my nose! You are defying the family decree and causing chaos within the family! According to the rules, you should be expelled from the family and stripped of your status as the descendant!" the old man said coldly to William, glancing at Zephyrus, who was lying on the ground, badly beaten.
Damn William, how dare he commit violence in front of him! William didn't take him seriously at all!
William frowned. He clearly had not expected the Hall of Justice members to come to Lindwood City.
He glanced at Jessica. Could it be because of Nicholas?
"William, don't you know what to call me when you see me?" Alastair JP Jones said coldly, still with his hands behind his back, his face frosty.
Alastair was a member of the Jones family's Hall of Justice.
The Hall of Justice consisted of ten family members, carefully selected from both the main branch and the branch family. They were influential elders in the family who strictly adhered to the family decree.
They represented the family's honor and authority in some aspects.
Thus, most members of the Jones family felt scared when they saw them, similar to how mice would react to a cat.
If they violated the family decree even slightly and were reprimanded, it meant at least three months of confinement.
It was a nightmare for them.
William raised an eyebrow and greeted him. "Hello, Mr. Jones."
Only then did Alastair step inside, glancing at Zephyrus lying on the ground, and then coldly said to William, "You're picking on a family member? Do you remember the seventeenth rule of the family decree? Do you recite the decree daily?"
Facing Alastair's aggressive questioning, William's eyes grew colder.
Alastair clearly wanted to blame him without distinguishing right from wrong.
"Alastair, don't you want to ask why I hit him?" William asked coldly, anger rising in his heart.
He was furious at Alastair, who had no respect for him.
Half of the old geezers in the Hall of Justice were just rigid-minded relics.
Alastair merely cast a cold glance at Mary and Sarah, completely disregarding them, and said, "Zephyrus hit a nobody and a bastard child, so what? As the heir of the Jones family, how dare you disregard the family decree like this? Do you even respect me, the family decree, or the branch family?"
Alastair was aggressive, throwing out questions one after another.
The atmosphere was tense and ready to explode.
William's eyes were filled with coldness. He felt anger toward Alastair for the first time!
This was pure nonsense.
The accusation had been casually thrown at him.
Indeed, the grandfather and grandson were birds of a feather.
When Alastair saw William remain silent, he angrily said, "William, from now on, I sentence you to three months of confinement, effective immediately. You will sever all ties here. As for your wife and child, we will make the arrangements."
Confinement?
Make the arrangements?
William laughed. Who did the Hall of Justice and the branch family think they were?
He thought, 'Do they really think they can bully me so easily?'
"William, think carefully. If you dare to defy my orders and the Hall of Justice, you know very well what the consequences will be. Even if you won't think of the consequences for yourself, think about your wife and child!" Alastair said coldly, his words full of threats.
William frowned deeply, glancing at Mary and Sarah lying on the sofa, his anger surging.
Benjamin, who had been standing by, was ready for action. As long as William gave the order, none of these people would leave.
At this moment, Benjamin was beyond furious. He had never seen such shameless people from the branch family.
Jessica had been standing aside watching the show, playing with her Persian cat.
When Alastair saw William remain silent, he smirked coldly and signaled to the guards behind him. "Take Zephyrus back."
As soon as he finished speaking, the guards walked into the living room, supporting Zephyrus, and started to leave.
As Zephyrus passed William, he stopped, clutching his chest, and laughed coldly. "William, aren't you the sole heir of the main family? Weren't you going to kill me to vent your anger? You were so arrogant. Look at your wife and child, I beat them up, hahaha, and you can't do anything. How pathetic!"
Zephyrus laughed recklessly, feeling no fear.
With his grandfather Alastair here, would William dare to act out?
Definitely not!
After saying that, Zephyrus coughed a few times, glaring at Mary and Sarah, and said, "You bitches, one day, I'll kill you!"
Then, Zephyrus slowly walked out of the living room with the help of the guards.
Alastair didn't linger either. He finally said to William, "Take care of yourself. I will definitely report what happened today matters to the Hall of Justice. You better be prepared."
After saying that, Alastair waved his sleeve and was about to leave with his people.
William, who had been silent, clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turning red and purple.
He suddenly raised his head, his eyes shooting out a cold light, staring at the departing Zephyrus and Alastair, and shouted, "Today, anyone who dares to step out of this villa will face only death!"
As William's words fell, dozens of black business cars gathered outside Villa No.1 in the upscale residential area.
Leading them was Alan's signature car, a black Maybach!
The doors of the black business cars opened, and one by one, men in black suits jumped out, all holding weapons.
Alan stepped down, took off his hat, and quickly headed toward the villa.
In an instant, dozens of men in black suits surrounded the lawn outside the villa.
Seeing this, Alastair and his people shuddered, turned to glare at William, and shouted, "William, what are you doing?"
William knelt by the sofa, gently touched Mary and Sarah, and signaled to a few of Alan's men who had entered. "Take them to the hospital first."
Mary, in a daze, looked at William, tears streaming down her face, and murmured, "William, don't be impulsive."
Even at this moment, she was still worried about William as she had somewhat understood that William's family situation was very complicated.
"It's okay. Don't worry. I know what I'm doing,"
William said, smiling gently and watching his men take Mary and Sarah out. Then his eyes turned blood-red, filled with rage!
He then walked away from them, each step echoing like a death knell, striking fear into Alastair and his people.
"Today, I, William, the heir of the Jones family, officially issue an expulsion order to you and Alastair's family! Anyone who defies me will be killed without mercy!" William said coldly. Holding up a ring high in the air, he shouted, "The Noble Command is here, who would dare disobey?"
