I’m Someone Else

Chapter 57

Well, now that the father is here, I suppose I should teach him a lesson on behalf of his son. After all, you’re responsible for the trouble your son has caused me because if you’re not to blame, who else is?

“You…”

“Go to hell with ‘you’!” Thomas snarled and choked Jerry’s throat, slamming his face onto the table full of cake and beverages.

“I have done nothing wrong to your son. I was just sitting on the couch in the living room, minding my own business, so why did he get so upset about that? I don’t care who he likes, but he can’t frame me for stealing for the sake of someone he is in love with. After all, I don’t even know him at all! As for you, what do you think you’re doing here trying to stir up some trouble on my turf? Are you executing your retaliation plan against me to stand up for your son?! Do I look like a pushover whom you could just bully as you like? Or do you think you can do whatever you want just because you think you’re rich and powerful? I don’t care whether it’s the Turner Family or someone else. If you piss me off, you’re going to pay the price!”

Thomas raised his leg and landed a blow on Jerry’s knee as soon as he finished his words. When a loud popping was heard from Jerry’s knee joint, Thomas only gloated over the former’s misery, thinking that was what he deserved after what he did. Be prepared to spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair.

“Ah!” In that instant, Jerry screamed in agony, unable to tolerate the pain as his knees were destroyed in a devastating manner. After all, he had only ever broken other people’s legs until that moment when he finally had a taste of his own medicine. What made that even more ironic was the fact that the person who broke his legs was the ‘driver’ whom he had always despised and disdained.

Meanwhile, the bystanders who had just witnessed what happened gulped in fear, not expecting Jerry, who was the patriarch of the great Tuner Family, to be disabled in just a matter of minutes. Oh my gosh! That was brutal!

At the same time, Thomas glimpsed Jerry with contempt and called him a coward who was in over his head. This guy has zero imagination about his limits. How audacious of him to threaten to kill me! He then walked up to Jerry, who was still caught in a trance, and pointed at Molly. “Apologize to her now!”

“Ah? O-Of course! Right away!” Curtis snapped out of his trance, his body shaking like a leaf, when he realized all six of his bodyguards were dead. Even my dad is now crippled! Do I even stand a chance against this man? If Thomas wanted it, he could even kill me right away! Despite his desire to stand up, Curtis’ legs failed him. At the same time, he was afraid that he would piss off Thomas if he made Molly wait for his apology. Therefore, he crawled pathetically toward Molly and kneeled down before her, whereupon he kowtowed to her and apologized to her non-stop. “I’m so sorry. Please forgive me.” Deep down, there was nothing else more important than staying alive to Curtis, including his status and reputation.

When everyone else saw that, they were terrified by Thomas’ violence. Although the Turner Family was not considered a part of the upper class in society, their presence was still widely respected and revered. Therefore, it seemed to the rest that the Tuner Family had suffered great humiliation as soon as Thomas murdered their bodyguards and crippled the patriarch, Jerry. To rub salt in their wound, Thomas even made Curtis kowtow and apologize to Molly.

In the meantime, Curtis kowtowed as hard as he could, making a loud bang every time his forehead hit the ground because he was afraid he couldn’t please Thomas. In fact, he had kowtowed so many times that he had lost count of it. Although he had saved himself from being bashed in the face by Thomas with a stool, his face was still covered in blood, yet Thomas showed no signs of telling him to stop. After all, Thomas wanted him to remember the lesson that he learned today so that he wouldn’t repeat his mistake one more time.

“Izzy!” Thomas set his eyes on the last person, who used to be his high school classmate. Deep down, he held a strong grudge toward the lady after the last two encounters in which she caused him, once during their alumni gathering and the other one at Pearson Group. However, having already let Izzy off

in the past, Thomas was determined to punish her this time. At the thought of that, he marched toward Izzy in an intimidating manner.

Although Thomas wanted to kill those people and put an end to all the trouble, he decided to hold back because it was John’s birthday feast, not to mention the fact that he had already taken six lives. Nevertheless, he subsequently changed his mind and took Molly with him to confront Izzy and the others. Unfortunately, Molly took a slap in the face so hard that blood could still be seen from the corner of her lips. If I let you go, I’m going to be sorry for Molly. Besides, even if I’m not doing this for Molly, I must live up to my pride as a man, or Olivia is going to be so disappointed with me.

The next second, Izzy, who was intimidated by Thomas’ violence, sank to her knees when the man walked up to her.

“Izzy, did I ever rub you the wrong way back in school? Or did I ever speak ill of you behind your back?” Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

In response to Thomas’ interrogation, Izzy was rendered speechless. In fact, she chose to mess with Thomas because she was in love with him earlier, only to realize he had a girlfriend back then. Besides that, she was also jealous of him for being a top student, so when she saw how miserable his life was, she immediately vented her anger out on him by trying to make his life difficult.

Noticing Izzy’s silence, Thomas raised his hand decisively and was ready to strike her. You asked for this in the first place!

“Stay your hand, Thomas!” Thomas heard a lady’s voice just when he was about to strike. He then turned around and saw a lady wearing a red dress walking in his direction, furrowing his eyebrows in puzzlement. Who is this lady? Do I know her?

The lady smiled and said, “I wouldn’t be surprised seeing you so confused because you and I don’t know each other at all. I’m Elaine Denver, William’s cousin.”

“Oh!” Thomas nodded. “What’s up? Is there anything I can help you with?”

“She is but a girl, after all. Have some chivalry and let her go, would you?”

When Izzy heard the lady standing up for her, she acted as if she saw a glimmer of hope. “Help me, Elaine!” In fact, Izzy apparently knew Elaine because she was the marketing director of the latter’s company. Therefore, she was counting on her own boss to save her a possibly terrible fate.

“Look, Thomas. Izzy is my employee, so please do me this favor and let it slide.” Elaine tried to protect her employee. In fact, she witnessed the fight between Izzy and Molly but did nothing to stop it. Considering the relationship between Izzy and Curtis, Elaine didn’t think it was necessary for her to step in until she saw what Thomas did to Jerry. If I don’t interfere, I won’t dare imagine what would happen to my employee.

“Are you kidding me?” Thomas chuckled and added, “If I let Izzy off this time, who is going to be responsible the next time she comes looking for trouble with me again?”

“Yes. Look, you and William are good friends while I’m his cousin, so I…”

“Can you give me a reason why I should do you this favor?” Thomas interrupted the lady. You’re smart to mention Will, aren’t you, lady? But I’m not dumb, either. If I do you this favor, how am I supposed to answer Molly? She already took a beating, and nothing can be done to change that.

“How dare you?!” Elaine was annoyed as she didn’t expect Thomas to be so stubborn even in front of the crowd.
