I’m Someone Else

Chapter 63

Thomas was dumbfounded and fell back onto the couch while staring at the picture; his eyes were void of any soul, and his face showed inexplicable sadness. During his eight years in the military, he had made only a few good friends. Today, Zachary was dead, and so was Dominic!

“Mr. Clifford, a-are you alright?” Zoe called out to him gently, confused by his reaction. Shouldn’t I be the upset one talking about my dead brother? Why is he like this?

When he heard her voice, he gave her a deep stare while his heart trembled. “Follow me!” He then rose to his feet and grabbed her hand, ready to leave the building.

She felt her heart thumping rapidly. Her instincts told her to shake her hand out of his grasp, but the warmth in her hand gave her a sense of security and even aroused a desire to lean into his embrace. It was that conflict that stopped her from breaking free. Then, she blushed because she realized he seemed to be pulling on her hand with great force…

When the two arrived on the first floor, they were shocked at the scene. The supposedly lively first floor was now entirely dark. The ear-deafening music and wiggling bodies had disappeared, leaving only a few lonely neon lights flashing.

What’s going on?

“Zoe Ginger, have you made a decision?” A frivolous voice appeared from the darkness. Then, the glaring lights in the room suddenly turned on.

The two narrowed their eyes and looked over to see a burly man in a black suit standing in the middle of the room while a young man with branded sportswear sat on the couch, smoking. When Zoe saw who it was, she subconsciously tightened her grip on Thomas’ hand, looking nervous.

Thomas glanced at the smoking young man. If he had guessed correctly, that guy had to be someone from the group she previously mentioned, and judging by the looks of it, this guy came alone today.

“Zoe, you’d better think carefully because you only have three more days. Once that’s over, your bar is ours! By then, you won’t get a penny and will have to become our plaything! Although Tigre previously mentioned he wants you to be his lover… Pfft.”

Lover? To hell with him. How can I let him have such a pretty woman for himself? Once that day comes, you must satisfy all of our desires. Then, we’ll give you to our subordinates once we’re done! Rather than regret your decision later, you’d better agree to my suggestion and submit yourself to me. I’ll give you all the money and status you want, which is much better than satisfying a bunch of men! Seeing that I’m in a good mood today, I will give you one last chance. If you still don’t accept my offer, I’ll resort to more forceful methods. I will ensure you learn how manly I am and how it is to be satisfied!

That man’s words caused Zoe to shiver uncontrollably. She had heard rumors about Tigre Shawn. According to the tales, he and his buddies had once tortured a woman who disobeyed him to death!

Will I end up like that too? No way! Who would avenge Dominic if I died? I can’t die! And Tigre, how bold of him to want me as his lover. That will never happen! I watched the video they took when killing Dominic, and Tigre is the most ruthless among them. He pulled out all ten of Dominic’s fingernails! I would rather die than become that man’s lover and give him my bar!

Sensing her rage, Thomas gently patted her on the shoulder, indicating that she should calm down. Yet, his actions attracted the man’s attention. “Hey, brat. Who the f*ck are you?”

How dare you hold my girl’s hand! I’m going to chop it off and feed it to the dogs!

Thomas did not reply to him. Instead, he pulled Zoe to the couch and sat her down. “Does he have anything to do with Dominic’s death?”

“Everything!” She angrily explained, “They’re a group of eight. They killed Dominic together and even recorded everything! I watched the video and saw him hacking away Dominic’s legs with an ax. Till this day, they still hold onto his corpse!”

She was gnashing her teeth so hard that they almost shattered. Killing someone was easy for them, but they did not give Dominic a quick ending and decided to torture him to his demise. They were simply inhumane! Back then, she even fainted while watching the video, and when she said they still had Dominic’s corpse, it was only his head because those beasts had dismembered it!

They were a bunch of monsters. The couple who owned the hotel opposite Twilight Bar were also brutally killed because they did not pay the protection fee in time, while the group’s subordinates defiled their only daughter. When the daughter finally escaped, she became mentally unstable and chose to end her life. Those b*stards were animals in human clothing!

Whoosh!

Zoe’s words ignited Thomas’ fury as he sprang up from the couch. However, the young man was too focused on her that he did not even notice Thomas. He shamelessly demanded, “Zoe, remember how you feel now because I want you to keep up that face. I love it when you look like that. Hahaha!”

The man’s eyes were filled with lust as he wanted nothing more than to rush over and conquer her.

“You… You…” She was so angered by those lustful words that she could not speak properly. While pointing at his nose, she wanted nothing else but to end him right there.

“Haha! That’s right! That’s the face I like. Ravishing, attractive, very good!”

I’ve been with countless women, so you should thank god I’ve taken a fancy to you! If it weren’t for your good looks, I wouldn’t be here today to take away your virginity instead of those seven b*stards! I have

to have the upper hand, don’t I?

“Are those fifteen men your underlings?” Thomas walked to the bar and opened a bottle of red wine.

“Hey, you. You haven’t answered my question. Who the hell are you? Do you think I won’t kill you if you defy me? F*ck you!”

How dare a random man touch my woman’s hand when I have not enjoyed that luxury! You’re dead!
