Chapter 64 Who Wants to Die First?
Even though Xavier was beaten to a pulp, Fergus still knew it was him!
Fergus rushed over, squatted down, and was horrified by what he saw. Xavier's limbs were shattered, his insides were a mess, and he was barely hanging on!
With no silver needles to help, Fergus did what he could to keep Xavier breathing and started transferring his energy to heal him.
"Xavier?" Violet gasped. She knew Xavier and Fergus were tight, and Xavier had even helped out with Red Pharmaceuticals today!
"Who did this?" Violet demanded.
Seeing Violet lose her cool, the guests quickly backed off, not wanting to get caught up in the drama.
Marlin and Oliver were too scared to say a word and hid behind John.
"I did!" John said, not a care in the world, smirking as he added, "Ms. Gray, I just took out a pet. No need to get all riled up; the real fun hasn't even started yet!"
He laughed arrogantly, and William joined in.
Everyone was stunned. Out of all the wedding guests, only John had the guts to face Violet head-on. And he didn't show her any respect at all. A big showdown was brewing!
"You scoundrel!" Violet spat through gritted teeth, pulling out her phone to call Thomas, the head of the Zimmerman family.
John taunted, "Ms. Gray, are you really gonna call my family over some trash? The Gray family will think less of you for that, and they won't step in for the trash. If you want to call my father, think about it. Will he back you or me?"
Violet hesitated.
She knew John was in Tarynville on orders to stop her, so he had backup. Even if she got Thomas involved, it might not help.
Seeing her pause, John looked pleased and said calmly, "I told you, the real show is yet to come. Taking out Xavier was just the warm-up. The main event is Fergus!"
He pointed at Fergus, who was still squatting on the ground.
"How dare you!" Violet was livid. "John, if you lay a finger on Fergus today, I will be your enemy for life. One day, I will make you pay!"
John patted his chest dramatically and said, "Oh, I'm so scared! But Ms. Gray, if I want to deal with Fergus, how are you gonna stop me?"
William chimed in coldly, "Ms. Gray, the bodyguards you brought are useless. Don't let them get hurt. They can't stop us!"
Violet clenched her teeth. She hadn't brought strong bodyguards to the small town of Tarynville.
She quickly looked at Logan and Hayden and said coldly, "Gentlemen, Fergus came to the wedding at your invitation. Now he's being threatened at the wedding. Are you just going to stand by and do nothing?"
As the hosts, they had to ensure their guests' safety.
Hayden was at a loss for words.
Logan, on the other hand, was thrilled. John was actually standing up to Violet. He had backed the right horse!
He stepped forward and said, "Ms. Gray, you're mistaken. We ensure the safety of normal guests, but as for Fergus, even without Mr. Zimmerman, we would still keep him here!"
Facing everyone, he raised his voice and said, "Everyone, this afternoon, Tyler and Sophia went to Mountain Shrine to pay their respects. Who would have thought that Fergus, knowing their schedule, secretly bribed Michael. He had Michael play the role of a thug to attack Tyler and try to take Sophia. Then Fergus would appear as the hero to save her! Fergus is malicious. Shouldn't he be killed?"
Tyler stepped up, lifted his shirt, and shouted, "Everyone, check this out. These are the injuries Michael gave me. Fergus and Michael set me up. If it weren't for Sophia's love for me, any other woman would have fallen for Fergus's trick!"
The crowd erupted.
"Fergus did that? If it's true, he deserves to die!"
"He must've wanted Sophia, the most beautiful woman in Tarynville, so he cooked up this scheme."
"Fergus should take a good look at himself. He's just a regular worker, and he wants Sophia? Gross!"
The guests started cursing him out.
"No way!" Violet was shocked and denied it. She glanced at Fergus, then looked away and said firmly, "There must be some mistake. Fergus isn't like that!"
Even though she knew about Fergus and Sophia's engagement, Fergus had said he was over it. He couldn't still be hung up on Sophia!
"Nothing's impossible!" Logan said firmly. "Ms. Gray, Fergus is just a jerk who suddenly got some power. He can do anything. He shows one face to you and another behind your back. You've been fooled by him!"
Tyler chimed in, mocking, "Ms. Gray, you're too naive and trust Fergus too much. If you had chosen me back then, none of this would have happened. Look, all the top figures in Tarynville hate Fergus. Mr. Zimmerman hates Fergus too. I think you should just let us beat Fergus to death!"
Marlin added, "Ms. Gray, if you don't care about Fergus today, we might still be able to work together in the future!"
Oliver sneered, "Fergus, today is your death day. I'm going to skin you alive."
Hearing this, Violet broke out in a cold sweat.
In front of her were Hayden, the richest man in Tarynville, Logan, the new power in Tarynville, Marlin from Red Pharmaceuticals, and John from Davenport!
Four forces, all gunning for Fergus at the same time!
What should she do?
John sneered, "Ms. Gray, let me spell it out. Today, you can't protect Fergus. Your best option now is to leave. Otherwise, Fergus will be beaten to death right in front of you!"
Tonight, they intended to strip Violet of her power, making her life in Tarynville difficult and forcing her to return to Capital City for an arranged marriage!
Violet clenched her fists. The combined forces in front of her were too strong. She couldn't protect Fergus. Her mind raced, trying to figure out what to do!
At that moment, a cough echoed through the venue.
Everyone turned to look.
Xavier, lying on the ground, had slowly opened his eyes.
This stunned everyone because Xavier had been on the brink of death. Had Fergus actually saved him? Could he know medical skills?
Xavier saw Fergus and managed a weak smile. "Mr. Yost!"
"You're fine now. You won't die," Fergus said expressionlessly, seeing him awake, and then slowly stood up.
Looking at the people in front of him, he said indifferently, "You trash think you can take my life? I don't like killing, but that doesn't mean I won't. Line up and wait for your turn to die!"
Xavier was willing to be his subordinate, and was nearly beaten to death. As his leader, how could he stand by and do nothing?
Moreover, they wanted to deal with him too!
He said coldly, "Who wants to die first?"
