"Sh*t…" a curse escaped his lips in the form of a mumble and at this point, Axcel could no longer feel the pain from his skin being scraped by the glass shards when he tried to get out of that dirty and hellish room.

Because Axcel's mind now was filled with only one thought; how could he survive the mad dogs that Ramon was about to release?

He knew begging Ramon was a futile effort, because he could see the glint of killing intent in Ramon's eyes when he looked at him. So, Axcel stopped holding onto Ramon or wasting his time doing it. With no other choice, he tried to escape from the pursuit of hunting animals who wanted to enjoy the flesh on his body.

However, seeing the sight before him, which was a vast expanse of land, where he couldn't see any shelter, Axcel knew that his desperate attempt was a big failure and his life would end here.

There was no way he could run faster than the dogs, even if he was in normal condition, there was no way for Axcel to be able to outrun those beasts.

Especially now that his condition was like this, where even taking one step was too difficult for him and made him wince in pain.

Therefore, with a crazy and chaotic mind, Axcel sat on the ground. His breath caught as his body trembled uncontrollably. He started to shout angrily and spat out all the swearing he knew, centering Ramon.

"F*CK YOU RAMON! ***! F*CK!" Axcel exclaimed in the midst of his despair. Because he knew that there was no way he could live through this.

His measly attempts to escape would only give him a few seconds of life and in the end, only a painful death awaited him.

Therefore, instead of wasting his time, Axcel preferred to curse at Ramon and let out all the frustrations that he could only chant in his heart all this time.

"BA*TARD!" Axcel screamed as he saw the first dog jump out of the window he had broken earlier.

The black dog landed smoothly on the ground and immediately lunged at Axcel in its next jump, and the dog's eyes were the horrific thing Axcel saw before he felt a pain that a human body couldn't endure. The beast tore himself apart brutally and violently.

The screams of pain and the wild barks of the dogs now leaping out of the house, through the windows, were the only sounds that could be heard tonight in an old house, in the middle of the fields. No one could hear the screams that were full of heart-wrenching pain from Axcel, except for Ramon's men, who were now standing in the house.

Ramon walked closer to the window and watched every second of the torture, as if by seeing it all he could lessen the pain he felt over the fact that he had failed to protect his wife and their first child.

Ramon witnessed it all calmly, he heard every plea for mercy and curses that Axcel shouted at him.

Ramon remained where he was, behind a broken window with several armed bodyguards standing behind him and David on his right.

They all turned their heads away, because even for those who had been trained to deal with a scene like this, what Axcel had experienced was too terrifying to witness.

However, Ramon watched all that until the last movement from Axcel and his last mutter which finally disappeared into the barks of the hungry dogs that ripped his body apart.

Ramon watched it all to the end.

And even when Axcel's body was out of shape, he still stood there, perceiving the scene with his cold, murderous eyes.

However, even though Ramon had done that to Axcel, he was still not satisfied. His revenge wouldn't be paid off until he gave Leon the same death...

"Mr. Tordoff," David called out timidly as Ramon was still staring at Axcel's deformed body.

They had been standing there for more than half an hour and Ramon had not given any instructions, like he was currently lost in his own thoughts and not paying attention to his surroundings.

"Mr. Tordoff, Mrs. Tordoff called," said David, handing Ramon's cell phone to him.

It wasn't until after hearing his wife's voice from the phone that Ramon turned his attention away and took the cell phone from David's hand.

He then turned his back to the view on the field and leaned his back against the wall as he spoke to Hailee.

"What is it, honey?" Ramon spoke very sweetly and as if that one short sentence contained an undeniable love.

David and several other bodyguards around also witnessed how the aura around Ramon warmed in a split second m.

The man turned from a bloodthirsty cold-blooded killer to a warm and loving husband.

David and all the bodyguards silently agreed that Mrs. Tordoff would not have guessed what Ramon had done when she heard the way he spoke now.

They never came across a person who could change his personality as fast as Ramon did.

This man is terrible...

"I'll be home soon," Ramon replied, interspersed with a crisp laugh when he heard Hailee's sulking voice asking him to go home because Lexus kept pestering her and she couldn't get the man out of their house. "Let me talk to him."

"Lexus ran away into the kitchen when I said you wanted to talk to him. I'm sure he will finish our food supply," Hailee grumbled as if it was a precious food supply and they were facing a war, making food very scarce.

"I'll be home soon, endure it a little longer, hmm?" Ramon said quietly, a warm smile on his lips, his tone turning very pleasant. "I love you."

"I love you too, but you have to come home soon before my love for you diminishes because of my anger at Lexus," Hailee said.

And after a few more words, Ramon hung up the call.

"Clean it up, let's go now," Ramon said curtly as he walked toward the door, while David gave instructions to several people there to clean the place and left no clues that could lead to Ramon Tordoff.

One day, one week or even after a month they would find Axcel's body, but no one would know who did this to him and Ramon had plans of his own in the case of Axcel's sudden disappearance.

Axcel Dimatrio was indeed an important witness in a trial that would incriminate Leon, but Ramon had other plans that made his death much more crucial and useful in bringing down Leon.

This was just a start for Ramon in his revenge plan and no one would be able to stop him.

================

"What else do you know about Candice?" Lexus asked. He was still bothering Hailee with all sorts of questions.

"I told you I'm not very close to her, if you want to know what her personality is like and other things, you should go up to her openly and ask all those things," Hailee grumbled.

Lexus then lay his head on the dining table, while Hailee sat beside him drinking warm, fragrant tea.

"She's so fierce," Lexus said in a mumble. "I've only been nice to her by driving her home, but she keeps rejecting me because those damn reporters are after her more and more, but my original intention was to protect her from those reporters..."

Hailee frowned when she heard Lexus' words. "I think your love life will be very complicated." Hailee said this to make fun of Lexus, but the man took it seriously.

"That's why I need your help. How did you defeat Ramon?" Lexus raised his head, looking at Hailee expectantly.

"These are two different cases," Hailee said briefly and then threw out  a little idea that she hadn't really thought of. "Women usually like jewelry, why don't you give her a few?"

Hailee wasn't even serious about the idea.

"But, aren't you usually able to subdue women, why are you now such a naive teenager who doesn't know anything about women?" Hailee asked Lexus again with confused eyes.

"It's not that I don't know anything about women, it's just that, when I'm serious, I get a little clumsy," Lexus replied curtly.

"You are really serious about it? Even though you've only met a few times?" Hailee raised her eyebrows in disbelief at the seriousness Lexus was talking about.

"Well, I don't always conquer women, they just fall when they see my charm," Lexus replied proudly and this made Hailee roll her eyes.

"Good luck then," she said as she took another sip of her warm tea. "If you succeed in persuading her to be your girlfriend, persuade her to work for Tatum's company as well. I need her for my company."

Hailee hadn't spoken to Candice about this matter yet, so if Lexus could do it for her, why not.

And just at that moment, Ramon came into the kitchen and his gaze immediately turned to Lexus who was still looking lazy in his chair.

"You're back," Hailee called cheerfully when she saw her husband.

As for Lexus, he quickly straightened up and when he saw the tired look in Ramon's eyes he immediately raised his hands. "Okay, okay, no need to kick me out of your kitchen, I'll kick myself out before you do that." Lexus then swiftly ran toward the door and disappeared from there.

After all, Hailee couldn't be of much help to himself…
