Chapter 584 The Mastermind
The scarred man gritted his teeth and endured the pain, making one final desperate struggle.
Zayron raised an eyebrow and pushed the syringe a bit further.
The pain grew more intense, and the scarred man clenched his teeth so hard that blood and saliva mixed and
flowed from the corner of his mouth.
He didn't move, but his breathing became rapid as he gasped for air.
Zayron smacked his lips and chuckled. “You're a tough nut to crack. People like you value their lives the most, so
why don't you just confess honestly? I've only injected you with two percent of the dose. If I continue, the next thing
you ruin won't be your teeth but your tongue. If your tongue is bitten off, it will block your airway, and you'll be dead
in three minutes. Would you like to try?”
Fear flickered in the scarred man's eyes.
He wasn't afraid of well-trained bodyguards, but he was terrified of this little brat who hadn't even grown up yet.
This brat is truly scary indeed.
The man didn't want to experience Zayron's methods any further.
“I'll talk, I'll talk. Please don't torture me like this.”
Zayron's lips curled into a smile as he pulled the needle from the man's wrist and said lightly, “Don't try anything
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfancy, or else I have a thousand ways to torture you. Now tell me, whose dog are you?”
The scarred man's voice trembled as he spoke five words. “The Fletcher family from Jadeborough.”
The Fletcher family from Jadeborough?
Zayron raised his head sharply and narrowed his eyes while gritting his teeth. “Do you think I'm a three-year-old
child? The Fletcher family is now the top family in politics and holds a lot of power. The entire Chanaean population
are their subjects. How could they possibly create such a major car accident?”
The scarred man pursed his lips and said slowly, “But there are people in the Fletcher family who hate your mother
to the core. You're smart enough to know who that is. Once a woman gets her hands dirty, she's even more
terrifying than the king of hell.”
Zayron lowered his head slightly and fell silent for a moment before turning his head to look at Zeke beside him,
asking with his gaze about the scarred man's words' credibility.
Zeke nodded and walked toward the door, saying, “Let's talk outside.”
Putting away the syringe, Zayron followed him out of the cell.
“Uncle Zeke, what do you think?” Zayron asked.
Zeke rubbed his head and sighed, “Zayron, you're still too young. You shouldn't use such cruel methods. It will
destroy your innocence.”
Zayron snorted twice. “Did they think that they were being cruel when they hit my mother's car? If it weren't for... I
could've lost my mother.”
Zeke was taken aback.
Okay, maybe I was being too sentimental.
“Forget it. This is the path you must take in the future, no matter if you do it sooner or later. The scarred man's
words are credible. Anyone who could control the traffic department's surveillance system and assist them in
escaping must be someone from the government. If it weren't for your mother's calmness and quick thinking in
giving the Saviors a chase order, they might have all gotten away.”
Zayron clenched his fists slowly. “So it was that woman from the Fletcher family's doing. Very well. I'll play with that
pretentious b*tch until she's done. If I don't make her pay for this, I'm not Zayron Jefferson.”
Zeke chuckled and teased, “Well, you're not actually Zayron Jefferson. You're either a Luther or a Shurmer. You
don't actually have any relationship with the Jefferson family.”
Rolling his eyes, Zayron changed the subject. “So who are the people who planted the spies in the Saviors? Are they
also under the Fletcher family's orders?”
Zeke shook his head. “No, the Fletcher family's daughter doesn't have the ability to control the underground forces.
Her brother probably has, but Raiden loves your mother deeply and wouldn't do anything to harm her. “
After hearing his explanation, Zayron suddenly realized something. “I understand now. There's another force
behind this, and they're just using Scarlett as a pawn. The one who planted the spies in the Saviors and tried to use
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthem to kill the scarred man is the real mastermind.”
Zeke's face showed a trace of happiness as he praised the boy, “You're so quick to understand. You're really
amazing. It seems that my worry about you is unnecessary. Let's wait and see if we can catch one or two people
alive and find out who planted them in the Saviors.”
“Okay.”
At the medical base, Bailey took advantage of Felicity's stable condition and left the intensive care unit.
“Where's Zayron? Where's that little troublemaker?”
Of her three children, he was the one she worried about the most due to his mischievous nature.
Edmund placed a steaming hot meal in front of her and urged her, “You haven't eaten anything in a day and a
night. Take a few bites to fill your stomach.”
Bailey narrowed her eyes, sensing that something was not right. She grabbed Edmund's wrist and asked anxiously,
“Where's Zayron? Where did he go?”
“He's fine,” Edmund said, patting her shoulder with his other hand to comfort her. “He went to the Saviors branch.
The trap you set earlier today appears to have worked, and he went to check it out.”
Bailey jumped up from her chair, furious. “He's casting nothing but his own life away if he's not careful!”
With that, she was ready to rush out the door.
Artemis' mother is already like this. I can't let anything happen to his son.
Edmund pulled her back and said helplessly, “Can you let me finish first? You used to be so calm. Why are you so
impulsive now?”
