Watching the slew of curses aimed at Gideon and the understanding sympathy for Tarquin and Kendrick in the video comments, Elijah felt his anger subside significantly.
He valued family ties deeply, but in his eyes, Gideon was no longer kin! Gideon wasn't his great-grandfather; he was the enemy! "Evan, you can turn off the camera now. I'm done here." "Alright, shutting it down!" Evan flipped off the camera and climbed through the window into the room.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFirst, he locked the study door from the inside, then walked over to Gideon and forcibly fed him a Heart Saver Pill, waking him up with a few well- aimed punches...
As Gideon's eyes fluttered open, a cold splash of water hit his face.
Coughing, Gideon gasped, "Who? Who dares?!" Evan squatted in front of him, "Awake now?" Wiping his face, Gideon's expression darkened upon seeing Evan, "What the hell are you doing in my house, you little punk? What do you want?!" The effects of the hallucinogen had worn off, and he was back to his senses.
Evan nodded calmly, "Good, you're awake." Gideon was still clueless, frowning, "Who brought you here, where's Tarquin? He—" Before he could finish, Evan flipped him over, straddled him, and began to rain punches down on him, knocking out Gideon's real and false teeth! Shocked, Gideon exclaimed, "You dare hit me, you-" Punch after punch followed, "This one's for my dad!" "This one's for Elijah!" "This one's for my grandma!" "This one's for Keith and his family!" For the Inksters, one punch wasn't enough. Evan let loose a flurry of blows! Knocking him out cold wasn't an issue; Evan simply fed him another Heart Saver Pill provided by Elijah before waking him to continue the beating! Forget about familial ties or blood relations! Forget about age or vulnerability! In his eyes, good was good, and evil was evil! Right and wrong had nothing to do with family or age! He wouldn't go easy on Gideon just because he was his great-grandfather! Nor would he show mercy just because Gideon was old! Respecting the elderly and caring for the young is a virtue, but only if they are good.
A vile creature like Gideon didn't deserve any respect! Thinking of Kelsey and the Inkster family, his grandmother's ashes, and those harmed by Gideon, not to mention his grieving father...
Killing this old villain wouldn't even begin to appease his anger! Taking him down would be a service to society! Evan Thorne wouldn't go easy on him! Being merciful to an enemy was cruelty to oneself! He wasn't about to suffer in silence; he intended to beat him, and beat him hard! He wanted Gideon to feel every bruise, every pain as if he'd been crushed! He was going to make him hurt!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmElliot and Elijah made Gideon suffer emotionally; Evan would make him suffer physically! He'd give him a taste of a fate worse than death! To see if he would change, to ensure he'd never dare commit atrocities in another life!
By the tthe rest of the Bradford family arrived, alerted by the online e.
video, Evan had already left. Gideon lay on the ground, barely alive! Teeth gone, bones broken... no, shattered! His body was limp, but his mind was alert, eyes moving, mouth able to speak,
"Call... call that monster Tarquin! It was... it was his second son! Call the cops! I won't let them get away with this! ... I'll have them locked away for life!" mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
