Chapter 4 Bursting Into the Caldwell Manor

"The chance to change my destiny is right here. I have to take it! I'd rather go down in flames than live in disgrace!"

With fierce determination, Osborne declared before striding into the general store.

After a short while, he emerged, his expression steely as he headed back to the Caldwell Manor.

Osborne intended to return to the villa where he used to live and pack his belongings, but several figures blocked his path.

"What are you doing back here, loser? You've been kicked out. I threw out all your junk already. No need to come in. I don't want you stealing anything."

"Get lost!" A woman, with an incredibly voluptuous figure and a beautiful face twisted in disdain, said.

Osborne's face darkened.

The woman was Evelyn Caldwell, Ophelia's stepmother. Behind her stood several members of the Caldwell family, their faces full of mockery as they looked at Osborne like he was a joke.

During the three years he'd lived with the Caldwell family, Evelyn had never shown him any kindness. She constantly insulted him, and her ultimate goal was to drive him away.

It was also she who instigated Ophelia's divorce from him.

Now, Evelyn had thrown away his belongings and barred him from retrieving them, treating him like a thief.

This was beyond humiliating.

In the past, Osborne would have swallowed his anger and endured the insult.

But now, he snorted coldly and rudely shoved Evelyn aside, marching towards the villa.

"Move aside!"

Evelyn, knocked off balance, flew into a rage.

"You bastard! How dare you push me? Didn't you hear me? You're not allowed inside. Get out, or don't blame me for what happens next!"

She tried to block his path again, her tone becoming even more aggressive.

Osborne smirked coldly, "Care to say that again?

"Why should I leave with nothing? Ophelia and I are married. I'm entitled to a share of our assets.

"I won't be greedy. Give me one hundred million dollars in cash, and I'll be out of your lives immediately.

"Otherwise, no one is making me leave today!"

Osborne's audacious demand was all part of his strategy. He knew asking for one hundred million dollars was outrageous, but it was a starting point for negotiation. He figured if he aimed high, there would be room to maneuver when they inevitably bargained down.

The Caldwell family members were stunned, their faces a mix of shock and disbelief.

Then, they erupted into laughter, as if he had told the most ridiculous joke.

"Haha, is he out of his mind?"

"It seems the divorce hit him harder than we thought. He's completely lost it."

Evelyn, fuming, shouted, "Have you lost your mind? You think you deserve one hundred million dollars from our family? Who do you think you are?

"A nobody like you thinks you're worth that much?

"Pathetic dog! If I'd known you were after our family's fortune, I'd have taken care of you long ago. Since you want to die, I'll grant your wish!

"Guards!"

With that, five burly bodyguards appeared, surrounding Osborne.

With a vicious glare, Evelyn commanded, "Beat him to death!

"I'll take full responsibility!"

The bodyguards' faces turned menacing as they closed in, fists raised, ready to strike. © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

But Osborne's eyes gleamed with a deadly light.

For the past three years, every slight dissatisfaction from Evelyn meant a beating from these bodyguards.

As Ophelia's stepmother, she made his life miserable, and he had to endure it in silence.

The Caldwell family saw him as a weakling, never realizing that he was the one secretly protecting Ophelia from her rivals. Without him, she wouldn't have survived to become the heiress of the Caldwell family.

They had no idea who they were dealing with.

This time, Osborne was done playing the victim.

His left eye transformed, splitting into dual pupils.

The Satan's Eye activated!

Suddenly, the world around him slowed to a crawl. The bodyguards' punches seemed to drift through the air in slow motion.

Osborne exploded into action, his movements swift and predatory. He dodged a bodyguard's punch with ease and landed a powerful uppercut to his jaw.

This punch was more than just a strike. It was three years of pent-up rage and humiliation unleashed in one blow.

The sickening crunch of the bodyguard's jaw breaking echoed through the room. His massive body lifted off the ground, blood and teeth flying as he collapsed in a heap.

Before the second bodyguard's punch could connect, Osborne was already on the move.

In his heightened state, the attack seemed pitifully slow.

Like a furious lion, Osborne took down each bodyguard with precision and speed. In less than ten seconds, all five lay unconscious on the ground.

A stunned silence fell over the room.

The Caldwell family stared at Osborne in disbelief.

Five bodyguards were knocked out in only ten seconds.

The man they had dismissed as worthless was now a force of nature, a monster in their midst.

"You... you..."

Evelyn's voice trembled, and her confidence shattered.

Osborne's icy gaze fixated on her. Taking down the bodyguards hadn't satisfied his anger. They were just pawns. The real source of his suffering and degradation stood right in front of him.

With a steely resolve, Osborne advanced on Evelyn.

Fear twisted her features. "You... you bastard, what are you going to do?!"

"What am I going to do? It's time for payback."

Osborne's voice was cold as ice as he delivered a resounding slap across Evelyn's haughty face.
