Capítulo 1708: Chapter 1708: Not Only Skillful, But Also Ruthless
William Campbell, having escaped the crisis, imdiately got up and ran to Leo Hall, clinging tightly to his leg.
Even though he was just a five-year-old child, in this situation, he still managed to quickly assess who was to his advantage.
“Brother…”
William’s face was dirty, and there were bruises left by the woman nad Thompson. At this mont, he looked at Leo with teary eyes, looking quite pitiful indeed.
Although he wasn’t crying, the scare of almost being sold still left him quite shaken.
Leo could feel his small body trembling as he hugged his leg.
“Tsk!”
Leo clicked his tongue, looking at him disdainfully, “Let go, your hands are filthy.”
William refused to let go, instead holding on even tighter.
“You little brat…”
Leo glared at him fiercely, but did not pull him away. Instead, he turned around to find so discarded nylon ropes.
The scene before them unfolded like this.
A handso young man, with a cute and delicate-looking child clinging to his leg, hobbled along. Casually, he dragged up Henry Morgan and the woman nad Thompson lying on the ground and tied them to a pillar, using a very complex climbing knot.
Once everything was settled, he bent down and picked up the “leg accessory,” saying, “Little kid, we’re leaving.”
“Thank you for saving , brother. I will repay you.”
The little one’s soft voice was heard by Leo, making soone who always thought he did nothing but bad feel incredibly awkward.
He averted his gaze, snapped, “Don’t call brother, call uncle.”
“Okay, brother.”
Leo: “…”
As Leo walked out with the little one, a man called Third Brother ca back with a can of gasoline, and the two sides t face-to-face.
They locked eyes, leading to a mont of silence.
It was rather awkward.
“Third Brother” saw Leo holding William Campbell, realizing that Henry Morgan and the woman nad Thompson hadn’t chased after them, knowing they must have been taken down by this young man.
His heart sank, and he felt a wave of unease.
He put the can down on the ground, looked at Leo with a sinister gaze, eyes full of warning.
“Put the kid down, boy.”
Leo looked up at him, then revealed a domineering, devilishly charming smile typical of a CEO.
“What I hate most is when soone calls themselves ‘boy’ in front of , and you, have done exactly what I hate.”
“Third Brother” was actually sowhat panicked at this point, and didn’t want to waste words with him. He went straight to slap Leo.
Just as he reached Leo, before he could touch him, Leo kicked him away.
When he landed, his knee hit the ground hard, as if the sound of kneecaps shattering into pieces could be heard.
Leo placed William to the side and said to him:
“Stay here and don’t run around, got it?”
“Got it, brother.”
William softly replied with his gentle voice and indeed didn’t move again.
“Close your eyes and cover your ears with your hands.”
Leo gave the “order” to the little one behind him as he walked towards “Third Brother.”
“Got it, brother.”
The little one obediently closed his eyes, lifted his chubby little hands, and tightly covered his ears.
The earlier toss had left “Third Brother” hurt badly; though his knees weren’t shattered, they were seriously injured.
He hadn’t expected this young man, who looked refined and usually should be surrounded by a group of bodyguards, to not only have good skills but also be so ruthless.
