SON-IN-LAW GETS AN UPGRADE - Season 5 Episode 84

“Director Jennings, your husband is so proud. He doesn’t show any respect to the Nixon family. Are all the Jenningses equally disrespectful towards the Nixon family?” Ally asked suddenly. Ally was staring at Heather at the time and pressuring the latter.

Alex was a lunatic, so Ally knew that there was no point in threatening him.

Hence, she targeted Heather to get the woman to stop Alex.

If Alex actually turned Stuart into a cripple, things would surely get out of control.

As suspected, Heather fidgeted and quickly scolded, “Alex, you’ve caused enough trouble! Are you trying to get the Jenningses to die with you?”

Alex turned to look at Heather once. After that, he put his hand on Stuart’s head and kicked Stuart’s knee.

Crack!

The crisp sound of bone snapping rang up, followed by Stuart’s agonized howls.

Alex let go, and Stuart fell forward while holding his leg. His screams were loud, and he sounded like he was in immense pain.

The whole place was otherwise quiet.

Everyone was flabbergasted, and their eyes shone with dread as they stared at Alex.

They didn’t think Alex would actually cripple Stuart!

He made an enemy of the Nixon family? He’s either crazy or just dumb!

Men like that couldn’t be reasoned with or fought with.

Heather’s jaw dropped. She didn’t realize that Alex would be cruel enough to break one of Stuart’s legs. What do we do if the Nixon family blames it all on the Jennings family?

Stuart was on the floor, and his eyes shone with no emotion, even though his face was distorted in pain.

“One last chance. Get on your knees, or I will break your other leg and turn you into an actual cripple. You should know that the bones on that leg are already broken. It will heal, but you will remain partially crippled for the rest of your life,” informed Alex cruelly.

Stuart’s heart trembled. Alex’s words had frightened him to his core.

Alex Jefferson is either a lunatic or has a death wish. It’s not worth sacrificing both legs for my pride alone.

The most important bit, however, was that if he truly was partially crippled, he might as well just die.

Stuart finally admitted defeat when he saw the evil glint in Alex’s eyes.

Stuart quickly got up. He tried to conceal the pain in his broken leg to kneel in front of Alex.

Unfortunately, Stuart had only moved a little before a nerve-wracking pain hit him. That frightened him so much that he asked Ally to help him.

Ally was horrified at that moment as well. She didn’t think that Alex would be so insanely cruel.

She was more worried about Stuart, though.

Both siblings of the Nixon family were crushed in Nebula City, and she couldn’t imagine how furious Jeremy Nixon would be when he learned that.

Ally hurried over to help Stuart, feeling worried.

put half of his weight on Ally and struggled to kneel in front of Alex. After that, he said, “I’m sorry. I was wrong.”

“Louder,” instructed Alex as he scoffed.

Stuart’s heart trembled. He was mentally crushed, but his expression didn’t change much. He then shouted, “I’m sorry! I was wrong, and I shouldn’t have tried to back out of my words! Please show mercy and spare me.”

Stuart said those words, but he was actually thinking about how he would torture and kill Alex to pacify his hatred.

It didn’t matter if it was because Alex crushed Stuart’s bones or if it was because Alex forced Stuart to kneel. Either incident warranted the death penalty.

I will not rest until I kill Alex Jefferson!

Alex tapped Stuart’s face and insulted, “Good boy. Remember the lesson I taught you today, and don’t be so arrogant anymore. If you get into a bet, honor your deal when you lose. You’ll regret it if you don’t.”

As Alex spoke, he turned to the car on display and got in it. He closed the door and drove up to Maggie’s side.

“Get in, I’ll drive you around,” offered Alex with a smile after he opened the door for Maggie.

Maggie was ecstatic, and she quickly got into the passenger’s side of the car.

She later closed the door, and Alex drove away.

Heather’s expression couldn’t be darker when she stood at the back and watched all that happen.
