Demons Beside You Chapter 384 - Laurent’s Nightmare Birthday

Chapter 384: Laurent’s Nightmare Birthday

“Laurent, you really love Chen’s cooking, right?” Winnip teased, seeing how he was into the food. “How about we have him stay in Sacramento? This way, you can eat his food every day.”
“It’s so-so,” Laurent criticized while eating. “It’s not that good.”
“You usually eat half that much. Just admit it.”
Laurent realized that he indeed ate more than usual. No. More accurately, he ate much more than usual.
Plus, he was already full, but he could keep eating. He had a great appetite.
“Laurent, eat more.” Chen Zhao smiled at him.
Laurent had eaten happily at first. He shoved anything into his mouth, thinking that Chen Zhao wouldn’t do anything to him today. It was his birthday. Chen Zhao had to at least respect that. But as he ate and ate, he couldn’t stop anymore.
“Laurent, don’t eat so much,” Winnip said. “If you like it, he can cook more tomorrow. You’ve eaten enough.”
By the time he’d eaten his fourth serving, he couldn’t handle it anymore.
“Laurent, stop eating.”
Laurent was still shoveling food in. Fali also noticed that Laurent had eaten too much today.
“Chen, do something. Dad can’t eat so much.”
“Oh, okay.” Chen Zhao helped Laurent to the side and helped him purge. He also whispered in Laurent’s ears, “You’ll have a very unforgettable birthday. You’ll keep eating, keep eating.”
Right then, Laurent finally realized that this was all Chen Zhao’s doing. “You *sshole!”
“Be quiet. You don’t want everyone to know how you locked me in the lion cage, right?”
“Motherf*cker!”
Next, Laurent started devouring food crazily again. He wiped at his tears while eating.
“Chen, is Dad sick?” Fali asked, worried.
“Having a good appetite means he’s in good health. There’s no problem. If you don’t believe me, ask Faur.”
Indeed, being able to eat meant that the body was normal. But the way Laurent was eating would cause problems. Faur thought for a long while without understanding what was happening.
“Kane, Karim, bring Laurent to the room.”
“No, I still want to eat. I still want to eat…”
Right now, Laurent was like a starving beast. He pushed the two aside. That terrifying appetite made it so that he couldn’t stop at all.
The people couldn’t stop him and he ate until midnight. Chen Zhao helped him purge six times.
When the clock struck 12, Laurent finally lay onto the ground, exhausted. It was unclear whether his expression was one of hatred or satisfaction.
“Finally…full…”
“I’ll take Laurent to his room.” Chen Zhao helped Laurent up.
Laurent’s expression was furious. “Don’t think you can defeat me like this.”
“You want to try this feeling again?” Chen Zhao asked, smiling sinisterly.
“Whatever. We’ll have a truce tonight.” Laurent was truly scared.
Chen Zhao didn’t plan on continuing to torture Laurent. He’d already been messed with enough. If it continued, Laurent might really get health issues.
Chen Zhao didn’t want to kill Laurent yet.
“I hope you have a great night.”
“B*stard, you haven’t given me a present yet.”
“I already did. Winnip took it. Go ask her for it.”
“Why did you give my gift to Winnip?”
“You can ask her for it when you return to the room. Oh, other than tonight, you’ll really love this gift.”
That night, everyone in the house could hear noises coming from Laurent like someone butchering a pig.
The next day, Winnip prepared breakfast in the kitchen. She looked very spirited. On the other hand, Laurent came downstairs while learning against the wall.
“Dad, Mom, you two were too loud yesterday,” Faur complained.
Chen Zhao and Fali lowered their heads, but their shoulders shook.
Laurent was pissed. He didn’t want to mention last night. It was like both he and Winnip had taken some drug. Neither could stop.
He didn’t even need to think to know that it was Chen Zhao’s doing.
His birthday ended so tragically.
…
Chen Zhao, Fali and Faur would stay for a few more days, but Winnip had to start working today.
When she reached the company, she was stopped by someone.
“Mrs. Winnip, give me three minutes. Only three minutes, please.”
“Kane, I don’t want to see him.” Winnip strode into the company while Kane had already stopped the man.
“Stupid b*tch! You want me to go bankrupt, I’ll pull you down too.”
Suddenly, the man whipped out a gun and pointed at Winnip. In shock, Kane hurriedly pushed the man’s arm up. Karim and Howard blocked Winnip too.
Bang.
The first shot hit the ceiling. Since he didn’t hit Winnip, he suddenly aimed at Kane’s head.
Bang—
Kane lost consciousness and fell to the ground.
“Kane!” Karim tackled the man and stole the gun. He shot three times, each one fatal. Finally he tossed down the gun.
Howard ran up to hug Kane. Kane’s forehead had been shot through, but this was a small caliber pistol, so it wasn’t that strong. At least, Kane didn’t die on the spot.
Winnip was stunned by this sudden change in events. She stood there, staring at Kane, not knowing what to do.
“Call the ambulance!” Karim yelled. “Ambulance!”
Winnip finally reacted, dialing for the ambulance.
…
“What?”
Laurent was playing with the two baby bears. Chen Zhao and Fali were cuddling and watching TV, ignoring the third wheel that was Laurent.
“Dad, Fali, something happened to Mom.” Faur rushed into the house.
“What? What happened?” Laurent was shocked.
“A shooting.”
Chen Zhao and Fali jumped up too. “Is she okay now?”
“She’s okay. She’s just scared. But something happened to Kane. He got shot in the head to protect Mom.”
“Then…then… Then Kane…” Laurent was good friends with the three bodyguards. They often stayed by his side so they were unusually close. He also knew a lot about the three guards. In reality, he was the one who’d introduced to Winnip to be her bodyguards.
“The situation is bad,” Faur said, expression grave. “He’s in the emergency room.”
The three were like brothers to Fali and Faur. Kane, Karim and Howard had been by Winnip’s side since they were young. Back then, they would help Fali and Faur take care of annoying guys too.
“To the hospital,” Chen Zhao said.
