Chapter 1054Chapter 1054 Begging For Forgiveness
Freddy was so stunned that his legs gave way, and he dropped to the ground.
Killing him was a piece of cake for Jared. Jared could even destroy everything Freddy owned. It was
just a matter of whether Jared wanted to or not.
“No… No… This can’t be true!” Freddy mumbled to himself, refusing to accept reality, but that was not
enough to appease Beta.
Beta went over and booted Freddy twice.
novelbin“That’s enough, Beta. Let’s call it a day. It’ll be difficult for us to leave if Mr. Chance catches us again.”
Alpha stopped Beta from lingering further at that place, and the four jumped out from the window,
landing safely on the small boat right beside the cruise ship.
“Boss…”
Right then, the man in a suit walked inside and saw Freddy who had slumped to the ground. He quickly
helped Freddy up.
“Quick!” Freddy ordered. “Gather everyone on this ship. Now!”
The man was taken aback when Freddy suddenly shouted at him, but still, he went out to carry out the
order swiftly. In no time, everyone was assembled.
After that, Freddy asked all of them to go over to Jared’s room and kneeled down in front of the room
himself.Some of the people in the company were still unaware of what was happening, so they stood still,
looking around in confusion.
“What are you guys doing? Get on your knees and keep your mouths shut. I don’t want any of you to
disturb Mr. Chance.”
Everyone quickly did as they were told and kept quiet.
Two hours later, the sun slowly crept past the horizon, and the ship horn blasted. They were nearing
the port.
Walter and William were the first to wake up. When they came out to the corridor, they were surprised
to see Freddy and the rest kneeling outside Jared’s room.
“What’s going on, Mr. Wood?” Walter asked.
“Morning, Mr. Grange. I did something unforgivable to Mr. Chance, so…” Freddy’s voice trailed off in
remorse.
“What did you do? Come on, don’t keep kneeling like this!”
Walter wanted to help him up, but Freddy insisted on staying on his knees until he saw Jared face to
face.
It so happened that Jared came out of the room at that moment. Unlike Walter, he did not seem
surprised at all to see Freddy and the lot.
He had actually heard Freddy and the others the night before when they were outside the door.
When Freddy saw him, he quickly crawled over.“Mr. Chance, I’m sorry! Please forgive me! Please!”
Freddy was crying and shaking when he begged for forgiveness.
Freddy knew how grave the situation was. If Jared were to punish him, not only would he be dead, but
his family would also suffer the same fate.
“What’s going on, Jared?” Walter and William asked.
“Well, why not we give the culprit a chance to owe up to his mistake?” Jared answered, shifting his
gaze toward Freddy. “Come on, tell us. Why are you kneeling here?”
“I-I…” Freddy looked at Walter in embarrassment. “I got greedy when I saw the antiques sold at the
auction, and I wanted them for myself, so I ordered someone to kill Mr. Chance. I really shouldn’t have
done that!”
Freddy started slapping himself in the face hard and loud. In no time, his cheeks became red and
swollen.
Walter was appalled when he heard that. He could not believe Freddy would go to such lengths to get
what he wanted.
Walter had actually trusted Freddy, but when he found out what had happened, he realized he had
been too gullible.
“What should we do about this man, Mr. Grange?” Jared asked.
He didn’t handle the matter himself, but he let Walter deal with it instead.
When Freddy heard Jared’s question, he inched toward Walter and started imploring him.“Mr. Grange, please! Let me go just this once. I will do whatever it takes to remedy this mistake. I have
a lot of antiques at home. You can have anything you want!”
Since Walter was an avid fan of antiques, Freddy figured that was the best way to sway things in his
favor.
