Chapter 591 Severely Punished
Peyton hollered, "Are you blind? The ones you should be dragging are over there!"
He pointed at Francis in the wheelchair and the intimidating Harper nearby, yelling, "Drag those two jerks for me!"
But in the next moment, Garry's bodyguards lifted Peyton off the ground too.
Garry, fuming, said, "You've disrespected our VIPs. I'm reporting this as a crime of obstructing harmony between our countries!"
"What did you just say?" Peyton's eyes went wide, not expecting such a harsh consequence.
Emerald Isle had just established this crime to boost local development. If convicted, they'd be permanently kicked out of the country, and it would stain their passports, making life tough even elsewhere!
But Peyton still thought Garry had it all wrong.
"Are you nuts?" Peyton shouted, "Look at who I am! I'm your partner! You're dragging the wrong people; you should be dragging those two pieces of trash out!"
"Yeah!" Gerald suddenly broke free and yelled at Garry, "I'm tight with your leader. If you treat me like this, you'll be in big trouble once he finds out!"
The bodyguards hadn't used much force on Gerald and Peyton because, just a moment ago, these two were still honored guests at the hospital.
When Garry suddenly ordered them to drag people, they thought he might have misspoken.
Gerald grabbed Garry's arm and said, "Open your eyes and see who I am. You should be dragging that cripple out!"
As soon as Gerald finished speaking, Garry slapped him across the mouth.
Gerald's mouth started bleeding, and he looked at Garry in shock.
Garry didn't hesitate and slapped him again, making blood drip from Gerald's right lip.
After the slaps, Garry glanced at Francis in the wheelchair and saw his brows were still furrowed.
Without missing a beat, Garry kicked Gerald.
Gerald clutched his stomach and fell to the ground.
Still confused, Gerald said, "Mr. Glenn, look clearly, it's me."
Peyton was also shouting, "Mr. Glenn, are you crazy!"
Peyton and Gerald couldn't understand why Garry, who had been so polite and treated them as honored guests, suddenly flipped and acted like a madman!
Garry was livid! He kicked them a few more times! Peyton and Gerald, these idiots, had no clue who they had messed with!
Francis was the head of an international road project, involving interactions between two countries. To get this project, He had to be spotless and highly capable.
Not to mention, being recognized by both governments was something ordinary folks couldn't achieve. How could these small fry think they could mess with someone like that?
They even mocked Francis for being crippled? Francis, even with a limp, could secure the project, which only highlighted his exceptional abilities!
Garry didn't waste time explaining things to Peyton and Gerald. They wouldn't get it even if he did.
These idiots thought a little special treatment meant they could run the show.
In reality, that treatment was all about mutual benefits. Relationships built on benefits were shaky at best.
The moment one side's interests were threatened, things went south fast.
Like now, Gerald had pissed off the head of an international road project. Once the government looked into it, even if the hospital wasn't shut down, Garry couldn't escape responsibility.
Peyton and Gerald were too dumb to realize who the real big shot was.
Garry, not exactly in peak physical condition, was panting after a few kicks.
He called out to the bodyguards behind him, "What are you standing there for? Get over here! Beat them!"
The bodyguards finally realized that Gerald, the former VIP, had offended an even more important guest, so they no longer needed to be polite and began to beat him mercilessly.
Three or four bodyguards surrounded Gerald and Peyton, laying into them with punches and kicks. Meanwhile, Bryan, Manuel, and Bill were taken away.
Harper had Victor take the kids out, not wanting them to see the violence, even though Gerald and Peyton probably deserved it.
Garry didn't call for a stop, mainly wanting to impress Francis.
Seeing the punishment had gone far enough, Francis tapped the armrest of his wheelchair and said, "Take them out."
"Alright," Garry responded quickly, "I'll take them out right now. Mr. Getty, if you have any issues, please contact me anytime!"
Gerald was a mess, his face covered in blood.
Seeing Garry's groveling towards Francis, Gerald suddenly got it! Francis was from the Getty family, the richest family in Northfield. Judging by his status, he had to be the head of the Getty family.
Gerald was kicking himself for cursing such an important person! He now wished he could cut off his own tongue!
Gerald clawed at the ground, crying loudly, "Mr. Getty, please forgive me. I was blind, I beg you, please forgive me."
Gerald cried bitterly, and Peyton, shocked, said, "Honey... What are you doing? Have you lost your mind too?"
Why did Gerald suddenly start acting like Garry? Peyton couldn't help but stare at Francis in the wheelchair, wondering what kind of magic he had!
After several glances, Peyton only found Francis much more handsome than the average guy, but nothing else.
Next to him, Gerald, being dragged, still tried to crawl over and slapped Peyton hard, "It's all your fault, you blind woman, our business is ruined!"
Offending the richest man in Northfield and the people from the Emerald Isle government, what business could they still do?
Garry, catching on, said, "Don't let them leave. Send them to the law enforcement bureau and dig into who they bribed!"
Gerald was about to pass out!
After Victor returned, Francis added, "Look into what he said about sending women to Mr. Smith and report it to the Northfield prosecutor's office!"
Gerald was stunned, speechless, and utterly hopeless.
This meant he'd be tried in Emerald Isle and then in Northfield. He'd spend the rest of his life in prison!
Outside the door, Bryan was waiting.
While waiting, Bryan bragged to his friends, "My parents will definitely beat that cripple to death, and the woman who insulted me will get beaten black and blue, then sold to a brothel!"
Bill scoffed, "You're dreaming. They won't go down that easily!"
Bryan clenched his fists, "My mom and dad are invincible. Once they deal with those two inside, they'll come out and deal with you and your dad. Dare to defy me, and you'll be dead!"
Bill, being younger, felt a bit anxious hearing Bryan's words, worried for Harper and Francis.
But Bill knew he couldn't show fear, or Bryan would bully them even more.
Bill clenched his small fists and fiercely said to Bryan, "I'm not afraid of you!"
"You... I'll beat you to death!" Bryan immediately tried to rush over but was held back by the bodyguard behind him.
This bodyguard had been watching Bryan and Manuel, otherwise, Bryan would have already teamed up with Manuel to beat Bill!
"When my parents come out, you're dead!" Bryan, having been influenced by Gerald and Peyton's bad deeds, often heard about their misdeeds. They didn't hide anything from Bryan, talking about all sorts of bad things!
They even taught Bryan that as long as one had money, one had power and could do whatever he wanted anywhere.
Bryan believed that even if he did bad things, someone would solve the problems for him, which made him fearless.
Hearing Bryan's words as he came out, Gerald, beaten black and blue, was extremely angry! Today's mess was all because of Bryan!
If it weren't for Bryan causing trouble outside, they wouldn't have offended the wrong people!
Seeing Gerald and Peyton come out, Bryan rushed up and asked, "Dad, did you beat that cripple to death?"
Bryan, spoiled and selfish, didn't even notice Gerald and Peyton's injuries, only caring about whether the person who made him angry was punished!
After all, every time someone offended Bryan, Gerald would beat them severely.
Once, a classmate stepped on Bryan's foot, and despite the classmate's apology, Bryan punched him and pinned him to the ground, beating him hard!
Unexpectedly, the classmate fought back in desperation and pinned Bryan to the ground.
Bryan, rarely exercising and physically weak, quickly lost the fight.
But the classmate didn't really want to beat Bryan, only defending himself. Seeing Bryan couldn't fight back, he stopped.
Bryan immediately told Gerald, who had the classmate beaten into a coma on the way home from school!
The classmate's family wanted to sue, but Gerald used money to buy off connections, leaving them with no recourse!
So, in Bryan's eyes, human life was worthless, and money could solve everything!
Hearing Bryan's question, Gerald was furious, using all his strength to slap Bryan!
Bryan fell to the ground, crying loudly. It was the first time Gerald had hit him.
Peyton screamed and rushed to Bryan, glaring at Gerald, "Are you crazy! Why are you hitting Bryan?"
Gerald, his eyes bloodshot with anger, shouted, "I've worked so hard to get here, and it's all ruined by this bastard!"
Seeing that he still wouldn't let Bryan go, Peyton quickly hugged Bryan, feeling heartbroken. "Are you really going to beat your own son to death?"
"My son?" Gerald suddenly laughed sinisterly, "He's not!"
Peyton was shocked, "What are you talking about? How is Bryan not your son?"
"I have congenital infertility. He was the son of a friend of mine!"
Gerald revealed a shocking truth.
His goal was to have a child to control Peyton, as her family was quite wealthy at the time, while Gerald was very poor!
To succeed, Gerald targeted Peyton, knowing she could inherit a lot of wealth.
But because of Peyton's wealth, no matter how ugly she was, Gerald, being poor, had no chance.
Gerald first got close to her, then used a scheme to have a friend replace him in having sex with Peyton, leading to her pregnancy. With a child, they got married!
However, Peyton was very ugly, and his friend was unwilling to have sex with her. Gerald had to spend a lot of money to get his friend to agree.
From then on, Gerald steadily built his grand vision, step by step, reaching the heights he enjoys today.
But just now, everything was destroyed.
The things Gerald did might not warrant the death penalty in Emerald Isle, but in Northfield, the murder cases he was involved in could lead to the death penalty!
Thinking about his life, Gerald saw no hope.
Gerald, like a madman, pulled out a belt, holding it viciously, "I'm going to beat this bastard to death right now!"
Peyton lay on Bryan, and Gerald beat them both.
The hospital entrance was filled with cries.
Peyton, beaten badly, couldn't protect Bryan.
Bryan didn't understand why Gerald, who usually indulged him, had turned into a monster wanting to kill him.
Bryan retreated and dodged, but Gerald's punch knocked him off the high steps.
With a thud, Bryan hit the ground, the back of his head bleeding profusely.
Manuel, peeking out, saw Bryan with wide eyes, looking dazed, as if he had become a fool from the fall.
Manuel was terrified.
Peyton, furious, pushed Gerald, who grabbed her before falling down the steps.
Both rolled down like balls, ending up at the bottom.
Peyton broke her front teeth, and Gerald's face was cut, both in a miserable state!
At this moment, sirens sounded.
The law enforcement had arrived, seeing the family of three lying on the ground, immediately called for an ambulance.
