Chapter 1311: Severed Hand
"Jude Charington, if you’re a man, let’s negotiate like men do. Involving women in this way, really makes you look despicable! Just for that, I think you’re worse than scum!"
Jude Charington chuckled lightly, his eyes shimmering with a cold gleam, "Young Master Floyd, let’s settle our past differences first, then we can determine the strongest among us in a man’s way!"
"What past differences?" Jose Floyd looked at Jude Charington, his voice indifferent.
Jude Charington raised his right hand, his gaze fixed on the missing pinky, looking through his incomplete fingers, his expression more chilling, "The grudge of a severed finger!"
Nicole bit her lip, watching Jose Floyd, a surge of panic and fear rising within her, yet she forced herself to remain calm and composed, observing the negotiation between the two below.
Jose Floyd maintained an unruffled demeanor, exuding a powerful aura of nobility as he looked at Jude Charington, his voice devoid of warmth: "How do you want to settle it?"
Jude Charington chuckled lightly, pointing at the person in the blender, his cold voice resonating throughout the factory, "It all started because of her, so I caught her today, which is not wrong. Young Master Floyd, should I ask her to compensate, or should you compensate me for my finger? I’m a businessman, I charge high profits, if I demand from her, I might as well blend her into meat paste and feed her to my Tibetan mastiffs, what do you say?"
Jose Floyd said nothing, his expression deeply looking at Jude Charington.
Inside the blender, Nicole pressed her lips together, coldly staring at Jude Charington below, her voice indifferent: "I’m also someone who keeps public and private matters separate. I have nothing to do with Young Master Floyd a long time ago. He sought you out that day because of me, the cause is me. If you want to settle accounts, it should be between you and me. Jude Charington, being human, one should have some principles, forcing others into this makes me suspect that your grudge over your severed finger is just a pretext, and you’re actually scheming for something else."
Jude Charington’s gaze swept over Nicole, filled with murderous intent and icy coldness, as if wanting to tear the insightful Nicole to pieces.
Jude Charington’s gaze turned to his subordinate standing by the blender switch, giving a slight nod.
Jude Charington’s order was clear—
Jose Floyd’s eyes flashed, yelling coldly at Nicole in the blender: "Shut up! The matters between men, nothing to do with you women! This is something concerning Jose Floyd, you have no right to interfere!"
Nicole bit her lip, looking at the person gazing straight at her for the first time since entering, her heart filled with complicated emotions.
She knew what Jose Floyd meant by his words, understood he was standing up for her...
But didn’t she also wish for him to leave unscathed...
After reprimanding Nicole, Jose Floyd turned to Jude Charington with utmost coldness, "Alright, we will settle this between us, let her go, and we’ll deal with it however you want!"
She was inside the blender, just a switch away from losing her life, filling him with dread, like a bone stuck in his throat, unable to express his panic and confusion.
Jude Charington laughed coldly, "Young Master Floyd, you took one of my fingers, and now, I want to cripple one of your hands! How about it, do you agree?"
Nicole shuddered, her eyes meeting Jose Floyd’s gaze full of helplessness, her palms drenched in cold sweat, her heart pounding uncontrollably.
Jude Charington wants Jose Floyd’s hand, how could he—
Before Nicole could react to her panic, the tall figure standing in front of Jude Charington below, face cold, coldly uttered: "Put her down, I agree to your game rules!"
"Jose Floyd—" Nicole’s voice trembled slightly, calling out hoarsely.
