Chapter 578 Choices!
"But what’s in it for me if I answer these questions?
"A quick death!"
"_"
Connor looked at William in an intimidating manner before walking forward and gripping his chin tightly.
"Listen here, cousin!
In case you’re oblivious to the current situation, I’ll spell it out for you.
YOU LOST!
Cousin...you’re now our prisoner, and not a guest.
So what makes you think that you have the right to negotiate with us?
A quick death is all I can promise if you obediently comply with us.
Of course, if you choose to be stubborn..... Then don’t blame me for not showing you face!
Now my dear cousin, as elder brother Eli said..... It’s clear as day that you had made several arrangements so that we don’t get my information from the building.
And from the looks of it, your men have also escaped somehow too.
In addition to that, for the fact that you could grow up to such an age without my father knowing anything of you... means that you have several camps and powerful allies as well.
But not to worry, soon... They will all be reunited with you in the afterlife.
Now cousin... Where’s Oden Barn and the rest of your men hiding?
How many secret camps do you have and where are they located?
And most importantly, who are your allies?
Just to remind you cousin..... If you answer these questions truthfully, then I promise not to harm uncle and aunty.
But if you dare double-cross me, then I’ll make sure to drag them here and torture them to death right before your very eyes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo dear cousin, choose your next moves wisely."
.
Connor, Eli and the rest looked at William expectantly.
Connor felt like he had gotten William right where he wanted him.
Well, he did promise William that ’he’ wouldn’t kill Oden and Mona... But if Alec or Eli wanted to kill them, then how was that any of his concern?
All he said was that he wouldn’t murder them, but torturing them slowly wasn’t murder, was it?
He could use them as punching bags while keeping them alive.
And when he finally delivered them to Alec, whatever happened after that would be of no concern of his whatsoever.
Thinking like that, Connor didn’t feel like he was deceiving William at all.
How was it any fault of his, if this cousin of his couldn’t read between the lines and see the potential threats in his words?
And even if William understood what he meant, wasn’t it smart for him to still choose the path that was laid out for him.
One should know that if he chose not to talk, then when his parents were captured... They would be killed on the spot.
But if he chose to confess, then his parents might live longer before they were eventually out to death.
And even if they were tortured daily, the fact that they were still alive would signify hope for anyone.
Maybe during this period, they might get rescued... Or even flee on their own.
In short, anything was possible to imagine once one was hopeful.
Eli looked at Connor and couldn’t help but take in all of his actions to heart.
This little brother of his had really changed.
It looked like things would be getting heated up in the Capital soon.
So no matter how one looked at it, the smarter option would be for William to spill the beans.
"You’re a smart man..... so I believe that you’ll make the right decision, right cousin?" Eli said, while lazily sitting down on one of the rocks from the stone rubbles.
"Hmmm... I know.
But before I answer your question, how do both of you intend to divide my properties and men?"
(--_--*)
.
William’s question made Connor feel somewhat uncomfortable.
Dammit!
He had come here to claim everything for himself.
But now, he had to share some of these properties with Eli.
This was just freak** great!
Eli already had more men than he did.
So if he took more from William’s camp, then wouldn’t that just make him stronger?
He didn’t doubt that Eli would try to cheat him of his rewards.
And only the heavens knew how dastardly this brother of his truly was.
Eli looked at the seemingly distracted Connor and almost facepalmed himself.
’Idiot!’
Sigh... It looked like even though this younger brother of his had improved, there were still major areas that he had to work on.
Yup!
Whoever was his master, needed to school him again.
Because this was just too humiliating, you see a prisoner play with the victor instead.
Ugh!
Eli looked at the distracted Connor and shook his head wryly, before locking eye contact with the smiling William.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Cousin... How can we talk about division of goods, properties and men if we don’t even know how many people or properties and items that you have?
Wouldn’t it be better to divide all of them after listening to you?
So cousin, please go ahead." Eli said playfully.
Tsk!
He would like to see what other tricks or questions that William had to them.
Connor agreed with Eli after listening to his explanation.
Even though he didn’t know how many things, land, and men William own... He had already decided to split everything 60/40 with Eli.
So 60% would go to himself, and the rest would then go to Eli.
Nonetheless, even though he had the exact profit ratio in his head, he felt like Eli was right.
It would be better to first get a list and location of everything under William... Before later arguing it out in private.
.
"Cousin!
Enough of your games!
You either talk or die!"
"Oh?
Then I choose to die!"
"Good!
Very Good!
You’ll die, but not until I get the information that I want!
I’ll show you what real pain is, and then you’ll be begging me instead.
Ingrot!"
"Yes, your highness!"
"Show him a good time!"
"As you wish, your highness."
"Good!"
