The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin)

Chapter 974 Traitor

In the past, when Sheldon beat or scolded Jaqueline, they never thought that for Sheldon, Jaqueline already had an irreplaceable position in his heart. The doctor hesitated and asked repeatedly, "This may be very painful. Are you sure?"

Sheldon nodded.

No way, the doctor can only do what he said.

Taking the wood was different from other materials, while a piece of iron or glass can be easily taken out, but the wood will leave many fragments.

In order to remove these debris, the injured area will be cut directly, and then the sawdust will be removed one by one.

Although Sheldon's injury didn't go through the bone, it was close to it. This reminded the doctor that there was a saying called scraping the bone to cure poison, and the pain was piercing through the heart. During the whole process, the subordinates next to him couldn't stand it anymore, but Sheldon didn't say a word.

He just looked down at the debris on his hand being cleaned up little by little, as if it wasn't his own arm that was being messed with.

In a blink of an eye, there were fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

Immediately afterwards, big beads of sweat fell down.

Everyone turned their heads away, not daring to look any further.

After half an hour, it was finally cleaned up. The doctor gave him medicine and told him not to do heavy work these days. Otherwise it would cause sequelae to his arm. The doctor was also sweating.

Sheldon would not be able to bear it if he was too harsh, and he was also afraid that accidents would occur if he did not clean up, so he was careful during the whole process. After it, his subordinates hurriedly brought him water.

Sheldon took a sip, but kept staring at the door.

His subordinates didn't understand. "Sir, what are you looking at?"

Sheldon said, "When I first brought Jaqueline back, she was just so young. When she was four years old, she was very thin among a group of orphans, and she didn't like to talk very much. Later, when she came to me, she was finally more cheerful. She liked spending time with my uncles in the yard, running around, not crying when bullied, not complaining. But then everything changed. It was my fault. I shouldn't have her involved in my plans."

His subordinates were a little stunned. "So you don't want to train Jaqueline to be someone you can use?"

"No, at first I just wanted to raise a daughter, but she became more and more beautiful. I was afraid that she would leave me one day, so I tied her by my side and let her do things for myself. I thought I raised her, so this is what she should give me in return."

Hearing these words, his subordinates didn't know what to say.

She was dead, so it seemed too late to say anything now.

Seeing Sheldon in such a state, his subordinates became restless, and some people had already begun to prepare for themselves.

At night, a group of people quietly gathered together and discussed.

"Mr. Alford can still make money in the current situation? Is it necessary for us to follow?"

"It's hard to say. Let's just observe. Just one woman can make him decadent like this. So many of his subordinates were killed before, but he didn't say he felt sorry for anyone."

At this time, a woman said gloomily, "Jaqueline is really haunted, always causing trouble to Mr. Alford when she was alive. Now that she is dead, she directly obstruct our future."

Someone heard it and couldn't help but mock her. "The trouble you said is that you can't get Mr. Alford's favor, right? It's not a day or two that you are jealous of Jaqueline. Everyone can see it."

These words made the woman lose face a little, and she reprimanded sharply. "What are you talking about! Anyone who says this is appropriate. You have been looking for me a lot. Do you have a conscience? When you were on my bed, why don't you say such a thing?"

"Damn it, when did I find you!"

"You don't admit it now, do you?"

Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, the person next to him changed the subject impatiently. "Okay! I called you here to discuss the future, not to listen to your quarrel. If you have anything to say, go back and talk about it yourself. Let's discuss it quickly. Where are we going now?"

This group of people had been with Sheldon for a long time, and had seen Sheldon's methods of dealing with traitors.

If they wanted to leave, they must first know their destination. Otherwise, they were afraid that they will die before they got out of here.

Someone suggested, "How about we go find Anthony Callahan?"

"You are crazy. We are enemies with him. Will we survive if we go?"

Someone analyzed, "That's not necessarily true. It's equivalent to surrendering ourselves..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a person beside him, "Come on, not him!"

"Then where are we going? Over the years, I have offended many people in order to help Mr. Alford. There is no place to go around here. Sooner or later, we will die. Why not choose Anthony to gamble?" Saying this made the people next to him have an idea.

There seemed to be reasonable.

But there was no other choice right now.

Several people were discussing when to find Anthony while the door was suddenly opened.

Sheldon's trusted subordinates stared at the group of people in front of them with extremely cold eyes.

"You hit it off right away."

Several people were frightened.

Someone rushed over and knelt down, "It's none of my business. I just heard it by accident. They said that if I don't get involved, they will kill me directly."

Several other people were contemptuous.

What was the big deal to be caught?

The people who came in didn't bother to talk nonsense with them, and they didn't even have any extra questions, so they asked someone to tie them up, and they had to be lynched the next day. Several people trembled when they heard the word "lynch".

This was the cruelest method. Their flesh and organs would be scrapped off bit by bit, and they would finally watch themselves die slowly.

They knelt down and begged for mercy, but it was in vain after all.

One time of infidelity, a lifetime of infidelity.

Since they were traitors, they must have the consciousness of being punished.

On the other hand, Anthony had not yet left the South Sea but sent people around to salvage Jaqueline's body.

But this was tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.

Zack saw it, but didn't know how to persuade him.

However, Anthony soon had no time to care about Jaqueline.

Because Zack told him that Malcolm was coming.

After Anthony knew it, he thought something must have happened.

So, he asked Zack to take Malcolm to find him in the suite study of the hotel.

When Malcolm came in, Anthony had been waiting in the study early and poured him a cup of tea.

"How is Lyra recently?"

Malcolm drank the tea and declared his sovereignty, "Lyra is my wife now. Don't worry about it, Mr. Callahan."

Anthony smiled slightly.

"As a playmate who grew up with her, I just want to know if she is doing well. If she is doing well, I will be happy for her. Don't worry. Now I really only think of her as my younger sister." Malcolm sneered. "Anthony, you have so many sisters. Lyra can't afford it."

"I can't even ask?"

Malcolm skipped the topic with a few words. "Lyra and the kids are fine. I'm here this time because I have something serious to ask you."
