Chapter 923
Armand thundered somberly, “Since my wife is still unconscious because of you, I'll surely settle the score with you.
As for the masterminds manipulating you behind, I won't let them off either.”
Recalling the burn marks on Genevieve's arm, he could barely refrain from strangling Faith to death.
Half an hour later, Kevin, Faith's father, rushed into the ward with Cyrus and Zayne.
Kevin flew into a rage the moment he saw her daughter tied to a chair with a swollen right cheek. It was as though
someone had slapped him too. However, his heart skipped a beat when he caught sight of Armand and Sally
standing in the ward. My goodness! I'll only shoot myself in the foot by getting on Sally Loake's nerve!
He had no choice but to tamp down his boiling rage and grit his teeth. “Mr. Faulkner, what on earth is going on?'
Turning a deaf ear to Kevin's question, Armand lifted his leg and kicked Zayne in the stomach. The young man was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsent flying before ramming into the wall. On the heels of that, Armand strode forward to drag him up and threw
another punch at his face.
Due to Armand's forceful punch, Zayne lost a few teeth and blood spewed from his mouth.
Tears started welling up in Faith's eyes when she saw how Zayne was beaten to a pulp. She screamed at Armand,
“Didn't I say it has nothing to do with him? Just come at me!”
Meanwhile, Cyrus came to his senses and rushed over to help Zayne up. He raised his voice furiously. “Armand
Faulkner, what's the matter with you? How could you beat my son up without any reason?”
Armand had called him earlier, requesting him to bring Zayne to the hospital without stating why. It never occurred
to him that Armand would bash his son up right in front of him.
“Why don't you ask him what he had done?” Armand rose to his feet while wearing a gloomy look.
Recalling how Faith squealed hysterically a while ago, Cyrus sensed something awry. He grimly questioned Zayne,
“What have you and Faith done?”
Faith yelled out anxiously, “He didn't do anything! I was the one who did it! I did that because I hate Genevieve!”
In an instant, Cyrus and Kevin's faces fell. They could finally fathom why Armand blew a blood vessel.
Kevin walked toward Faith and reprimanded, “Genevieve has been in Jadeborough all this while and you don't even
know her. Why did you harm her?”
Pursing her lips, Faith hissed menacingly, “I know her and can't stand the sight of her! That's why I wanted to kill
her!”
Kevin could hardly restrain himself from slapping Faith. Nevertheless, he relented and put his hand down at the
sight of her swollen right cheek. Despite anything, she was his beloved daughter whom he had doted on throughout
the years.
Cyrus looked at his son and questioned him again, “Did you assign Faith to do so because you have a beef with
Genevieve?”
When they were at the Zeigler residence that morning, Cyrus could sense that Zayne seemed displeased when he
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfound out that Genevieve was Herbert's biological granddaughter. At the same time, Cyrus knew that Faith had
feelings for his son.
Zayne merely looked down and wiped the blood stain on the corner of his lips without saying anything.
“Zayne Zeigler, how could a twenty-year-old man like you not have any sense of responsibility? How could you have
the cheek to let a young lady take the rap for you?” Armand snorted with disdain.
Faith shrieked in exasperation, “I told you it has nothing to do with him! Come at me instead! If you want to kill me,
just do it right now and stop making a fuss!”
“Keep your mouth shut!” Kevin chastised, fearing that his daughter would further infuriate the man. Even though he
had never crossed paths with Armand before, he was fully aware that the man was not someone to be trifled with.
If not for him, Felix would be doomed due to the previous virus outbreak in Baykeep.
Armand, who was getting impatient, scoffed, “Zayne Ziegler, stop being a spineless coward and admit to it.
Otherwise, I won't spare both of you!”
Shocked and livid, Kevin was bereft of speech.
Armand picked up the stun gun that Faith used to attack Genevieve from the table and strode toward her. Next, he
stared at Zayne in utter indifference. “I'll give you forty seconds.”
