“Even in a moment like this, you are still so shameless,” sneered Dixon. “Seems like your knee hasn’t hurt enough.”
He grasped a small hammer in his hand. It seemingly glimmered wickedly under the dim light.
It was a truly menacing sight.
Looking on tyrannically, he held down Arthur’s legs as his lips curled cruelly. “Grandpa, what if I hammer your knees a little more…”
“No! No! You devil! How do I end up with a grandson like you! Go away! Ahhhhhh!”
Arthur’s eyes widened in terror as a heart-rending howl escaped his mouth.
He tried to struggle in order to escape and his body jerked backward in the futile attempt.
However, Dixon’s grip was too strong. He could not break free no matter how much he struggled. The wicked man raised the hammer in his hand up high before slamming it down onto poor old Arthur’s left knee.
A dull, sickening thud rang out.
Thump!
“ARGHHHHHH!”
The pain was so excruciating that fine beads of sweat covered Arthur’s forehead. His eyes shot up, almost popping out of their sockets, as minuscule capillaries inside burst and turned his eyeballs bloodshot.
His old, wrinkled face borne the look of pure terror.
“Hmm, grandpa. I smashed just one knee. You should have another one, right?” Dixon smirked, his wicked eyes were terrifying enough to send chills down everyone’s spine.
He raised the hammer gingerly again and swung it down. The room reverberated with the scream of the tortured Arthur, accompanied by the cracking sound of broken bones.
“Dixon Haddock! How dare you! I am your grandfather! How can you treat me like this!”
“You unfilial offspring!”
“How can I have a damned grandson like you!”
“Your mom is a wench! A whore! She’s just a tool! Without the Haddocks she is nothing!”
Arthur spat back in between his gasps of pain.
Dixon violently gripped the old man’s scrawny chin. “I dare you to scold her again. If it weren’t for you, and the Haddock family, she would…”
He did not go on further, but rather stared at Arthur insidiously. “I want you to watch the Haddock Group you’ve painstakingly built destroyed in my hands. I want you to witness with your own eyes the fate of all your children and grandchildren – everyone in the Haddock family – be damned to oblivion!”
“You… You…”
Arthur was so perplexed and provoked that he was at a loss for words. “You son of a whore! You…”
“Yes! It is me! I am in control of the Haddock Group now! Hehehe! Your favorite second son is just a paralyzed invalid! Your other sons and grandsons were mere bootlickers and beggars of scraps. Arthur Haddock! This is what you owed me. This is what you owed my dad and my mom!”
Dixon shook off the chin of the old man, then he raised the hammer once more and slammed it down with full force onto the Arthur’s legs.
“ARGHHHHH!!”
“ARGHHHHH!!”
Arthur was drenched in cold sweat from the pain. His face was contorted and he almost fainted from the suffering.
His body trembled uncontrollably, and the pain on his legs was so excruciating that he could barely feel anything.
His white hair was thoroughly soaked all the way to his scalp. As he laid lifelessly on the bed, he could only glare weakly and miserably at his grandson.
The once glorious and proud predecessor who helmed the esteemed Haddock family through thick and thin was now reduced to a pathetic, decrepit existence.
“Why don’t kill me! You… Kill me now!”
His voice was hoarse and weak. Almost inaudible.
“No. I will find the best doctor to heal you. After that, I want to break your legs again. Then, I will get another doctor to heal you again. Grandpa, this never-ending game is fun!”
Dixon dangled the hammer playfully in front of Arthur, looking very pleased with himself.
While uttering such sadistic words, he looked surprisingly calm and poised.
