Lionel was bound and knelt on the floor, visibly trembling with fear.
However, his protests dissipated as soon as he caught sight of Dwayne entering the room.
Dwayne stormed toward Lionel, his blood boiling with anger, and landed a fierce punch right on Lionel’s face.
Lionel cried out in pain and collapsed to the floor.
“Son of a bitch, have I ever done anything but good for you?”
Dwayne’s voice simmered with frustration.
“Remember a few years ago when that guy ki*sed your girlfriend? I was the one who taught that jerk a lesson and got revenge for you. And what did I get in return?
A brutal beating from my grandfather that left me bedridden for three whole days! Did I ever blame you for that? No! And here you are, trying to ruin my career and my life! What on earth did I do to deserve that?”
Dwayne’s rage continued to escalate as he grabbed Lionel by the collar, hauled him up, and landing two more punches on his face.

Soon, Lionel’s face was a bloody mess, with blood trickling from the corners of his mouth.
Lucinda and Nathan, observing from a distance, made no attempt to intervene.
It wasn’t until Lionel was on the brink of being beaten to death that Nathan finally stepped in.
“That’s enough. Sonny, get Dwayne away from him.”

Without hesitation, Sonny stepped forward, grabbed Dwayne’s arm from behind and forcefully dragged him away.
Still unsatisfied, Dwayne couldn’t resist delivering one more kick to Lionel’s waist.
Lionel groaned in pain with his head still bowed. His body racked with gasps of agony.
Perhaps overwhelmed by guilt, he didn’t utter a word even after enduring the brutal beating.
Lucinda watched him closely, taking in every reaction.
“Lionel, it’s obvious you feel guilty about what you’ve done to Dwayne. It wasn’t your idea, was it? Someone must have influenced you, right?”
He lowered his head and remained silent.
Nathan stared at him coldly and added, “I checked your bank account.
Someone deposited thirty million dollars yesterday and another fifty million today.
But you haven’t been working for nearly six months, and your family hasn’t given you any money. So, where did the money come from?”
Lionel’s silence persisted.
