Chapter 769

Tucker raised his eyebrows.

Why is the useless person here?

Naturally, Tucker was forced to inquire who exactly had dealt the fatal blow and crippled Shaun.

“Alright, I understand. I'll be right there. Please have the doctor wait outside the infirmary. I have a fewquestions for him.”

“Yes.”

Philip said nonchalantly, “Since Mr. Carter is eager to find out who messed with him, you should gohave a good talk with him.”

“Don't worry, Father, I will take care of it.” Having said that, Tucker turned around and prepared toleave.

Philip suddenly thought of something and added, “Send someone to investigate the background of thatyoung man, or look into Shaun's background. Check to see if there's any connection between them.Perhaps they have some grudges or deep animosity.”

“Alright.”

Meanwhile, at the infirmary. A crisp, crackling sound echoed throughout the hospital ward. A momentlater, two doctors rushed out of the room while clutching their blood-drenched heads in their hands.

“Mr. Carter has gone mad, completely mad! He's hitting everything he sees!”

The bodyguards who stood at the entrance exchanged glances. They pushed the door open andentered. A few seconds later, a hoarse roar rang out.

“Who dared to scheme against me? Who crippled me? I swear I'll devour them alive, crush their bones,and scatter their ashes.”

When Tucker arrived, he heard Shaun's howl and couldn't help the smile that crept across his lips.

The attending doctor approached him and nodded.

He said, “Mr. Hoffman, Mr. Carter's injuries have been taken care of.”

Tucker hummed lightly before asking, “What's the situation? Is he completely crippled?”

The attending doctor's mouth twitched slightly. He had never witnessed something so terrible before. Itwas truly horrifying.

He had to make dozens of stitches, and still, he had barely managed to reattach the organ. As forproperly performing as a man in the future, it was difficult to even think about it.

“It's quite unfortunate. Please forgive my limited medical skills. I was unable to restore him to hisoriginal state.”

Tucker smiled faintly. Even if things could return to how they were before, he could not allow something

like that to happen. If Shaun was not crippled, he would never aim the blade of vengeance at theSaviors.

Only by sacrificing him would he go fight against Bailey.

“Alright, I understand. Then, please take good care of him. Remember, even if he becomes disabled, oreven if a miracle might happen in the future, you must let him remain disabled. Do you understand?”

The doctor hurriedly agreed. Tucker entered the ward and saw Shaun being held down on the bed byseveral bodyguards. When he saw that the other man was roaring angrily, the look of amusement in hiseyes grew stronger.

“Mr. Carter, I'm really sorry. I never expected that the vice-leader of the Saviors would also take a likingto the little bunny. You know that kid. He comes and goes without a trace. I was not ready for him, andhe just took advantage of the situation right in front of my eyes. I'm sorry.”

Abruptly, Shaun ceased his violet struggle. After a brief moment of shock, he roared, “Are you sayingthe person from last night was the vice-leader of the Saviors, Veikko?”

“Yes, it's him. The mastiffs...”

As soon as the word “mastiff” was mentioned, Shaun reacted savagely. He gritted his teeth and said,“Don't you dare mention the jerk in front of me.”

“Okay, okay. I looked into it thoroughly. The person who saved the little bunny last night and attackedyou was Veikko indeed. If you don't believe me, you can—”

Before Tucker could finish speaking, a phone nearby started ringing. Tucker gave the bodyguardbeside him a look. Understanding Tucker's intentions, the bodyguard picked up the phone and pickedup the call. He held the phone to Shaun's ear.

“Mr. Carter, I've investigated thoroughly. The one who released the mastiff to attack you last night wasthe vice-leader of the Saviors, Veikko. He is fond of Ms. Caridee, and upon learning of your intentionstoward her, he brought his subordinates to the International Socialite Gala.”

Shaun was so furious that he felt as if his brain was about to explode. He grabbed the bodyguard'sphone and threw it at the wall across the room. After a moment of silence, he suddenly thought ofsomething.

He glared at Tucker and angrily demanded, “The woman is the daughter of the Luther family? Tucker,why you didn't tell me? What are your intentions?”

Tucker grew slightly anxious and explained quickly, “I really didn't know about this because I hadsomeone else handle it. I thought she was just an ordinary socialite. I figured since you're the head ofthe Carter family, it would be her good fortune if you took an interest in her.” novelbin

Shaun clenched his eyes shut, trembling with anger. His fists were tightly gripped as the raging furyspread uncontrollably throughout the hospital ward. He did not want to dwell on those trivial mattersany longer. All he wanted now was to seek revenge. He only wanted to avenge his fallen “brethren.”

“Mr. Tucker, I can't endure this resentment. You wanted to cooperate with me, right? Now that I'm goingagainst the Saviors, you should lend me a hand.”

Tucker raised his eyebrows.

The fish finally took the bait.

“It might be quite troublesome to deal with the Saviors. Their leader is not someone you'd want to messwith. Veikko is under her protection, so it's quite difficult if you want to make a move on him.”

The leader of the Saviors?

Shaun narrowed his eyes slightly. After a moment of silence, he gritted his teeth and asked, “I've heardsome rumors before. They say that Bailey is the Saviors' leader. Is that true?”

Shaking his head, Tucker replied, “I'm not so sure about that, but Bailey should be coming to Morantawithin the next few days. Why don't we send someone to investigate her and see if she'll make contactwith the people from the Saviors?”

Shaun's eyes flew open, and a bloodthirsty, murderous intent burst from his pupils.

I'm ruined. For the rest of my life, I can never do that again. The damage done to me is devastating. If Ican't collect this debt, I won't be able to face myself.

“Alright, let's do it this way. If it's confirmed that Bailey is the leader of the Saviors, I'll kill her first, andthen I'll grind the brat into dust.”

Meanwhile, in one of the Saviors' branches. Caridee gradually regained consciousness from her stuporinside the main bedroom.

After being stunned for a few seconds, consciousness gradually returned. Her gaze swept around the

room before finally resting on a man not far away.

He leaned against the couch with his eyes closed, seemingly lost in thought. Before, she was in adaze, and her thoughts couldn't keep up. Now that she was awake, everything that happened in thelounge last night was gradually becoming clear.

He had actually called over a few mastiffs to tear apart that scum. Although she felt that the despicableman deserved it, the one who gave the order was her beloved young man. This made it somewhatdifficult for her to accept.

Could this be his true self? He's quite scary.

A sudden cry of terror from the direction of the couch pulled her back from her wandering thoughts.

“D-Don't come over! Don't come over. Get lost...”

The young man seemed to be trapped in a nightmare, flailing his arms while wailing in despair. Carideepropped herself up with her left arm and sat up. After rolling out of bed, she took quickly rushed to hisside.

“Veikko, wake up! Come on, wake up!”

Although she shoved at him repeatedly, there was no response.

“Get away, all of you. Get away from me...”

The young man began to struggle intensely. Tears streamed down Caridee's face.

What had he gone through? Why is he in so much pain?

As the thoughts raced through her mind, she remembered that Bailey had taught her a dream-tailoringskill.

Although she wasn't very good at it, she should be able to enter his consciousness and delve into hisexperiences. Thinking of that, she slowly reached out and propped his eyelids open.
