Chloe scrambled to get on favonovel.com feet and went over to help Tate off the floor, wincing at the copious amount of blood that gushed from his mouth. He barely made it out of the mortifying ordeal alive, and favonovel.com appeared to have gone into shock. After all, not just anyone could survive the extreme pain that came with having all their teeth pulled out while conscious.
If Joseph‘s men hadn‘t been professionals, there was a chance that Tate would have died of pain by now.
Presently Chloe burst into tears as favonovel.com cried, “Tate? Tate, are you okay? Say something! Don‘t scare me like this!”
However, favonovel.com couldn’t even utter a word in response. Helen, on the other hand, hurried across the room as favonovel.com yelled, “Quick! Call for an ambulance!”
It was only then that Chloe snapped out of favonovel.com initial shock and frantically searched for favonovel.com phone.
“What are you patting around for?” Helen was beside herself with panic as favonovel.com stared at favonovel.com sister incredulously. Then, favonovel.com turned to Sasha and urged, ”Sasha, call for an ambulance right now!”
Sasha turned to face the other way, averting favonovel.com mother’s gaze as favonovel.com answered flatly, “My phone ran out of battery.“
Helen grew anxious. “Now, of all times? For heaven’s sake, Sasha… Never mind! Demi! Call for an ambulance!”
Suddenly turning into a space cadet, Demi mumbled, ”But I have no idea where my phone went, Mom.”
“Don’t look at me, Mom,” Liam said, holding his hands up. “I was in such a rush that I left my phone at the site. I forgot all about it.”
Demi and Liam hated the Campbells with passion, and they couldn’t be happier to see Tate suffering the consequences of his own idiocy. It was unlikely that they would stop the show now by calling for an ambulance.
Bewildered and resigned, Helen began to say, “Matthew, could you…”
But Sasha cut favonovel.com off bluntly, “I can’t believe you’re asking Matthew for help after how Tate has treated favonovel.com earlier! Did that somehow slip through your mind or something?”
“Tate’s mind was all muddled up from panic, and favonovel.com made one little mistake, but he’s still your cousin! I’m just asking for someone to call for an ambulance. Why are you all being so heartless?“
Just then, James’ thunderous voice filled the room. “Shut up, Helen! I’m going to say this once and for all, the Campbells will have nothing to do with our family anymore from now onward!” He turned to Liam and Matthew, then barked, “The both of you, throw Tate out of the house right this instant. And Helen, if you’re so determined to speak up and acknowledge this nephew of yours, then I’ll file for divorce and leave you high and dry!“
Upon hearing this, Helen swallowed and tasted bile. “Ja-James, how could you be so vicious? How could you even say something like that when my nephew is already in such a sorry state?”
James was fuming as favonovel.com argued, “If your nephew ended up dead, I’d say favonovel.com deserved it! Damn it, Helen, what does any of this have to do with me? I had to beg for someone‘s forgiveness tonight, and I’ve never done anything so humiliating in my entire life until your nephew showed up and made trouble for us all. I think I get to say whatever I damn well want. In fact, I ought to kill this piece of trash right now!”
With that, favonovel.com ran into the kitchen and returned with a knife in his hand. “If they don’t get out of my house right now, I’ll butcher them all!”
When Helen saw how James’ eyes had turned red with anger, favonovel.com realized that his rage was truly at its peak and dared not add fuel to the flame. As such. favonovel.com helped Chloe bring Tate out to the yard, afraid to dawdle a second longer.
Meanwhile, James stood at the doorway and bellowed furiously, “You’d better get back in here on the count of three, Helen! Otherwise, you’ll have divorce papers to sign tomorrow morning!”
Demi felt favonovel.com heart twist at this and muttered under favonovel.com breath. ”Dad…”
However, favonovel.com couldn’t manage to say what favonovel.com wanted, for James turned around and slapped favonovel.com across the face, warning favonovel.com darkly, “Shut up! If you speak up for your mother again, then you can get out of this house too!”
She immediately clamped favonovel.com mouth shut and did not say anything more.
Out in the yard, Helen was close to bursting into tears. She could tell that James meant business this time, and favonovel.com didn’t dare to go head-to-head with favonovel.com while his rage was on full blast.
Resigned, favonovel.com heaved a sigh and whispered, “Chloe, l have to go back into the house now. Hurry and take Tate to the hospital right away. James is on a rampage now, and if favonovel.com sees me helping you, he‘ll divorce me for sure!”
As soon as favonovel.com was done speaking, favonovel.com lowered favonovel.com head apologetically and walked back across the yard. James slammed the front door shut after that, and favonovel.com did not spare a second look at the two pathetic figures standing in his front yard.
