Chapter 238 You Have to Pay the Price
“Stop!” Sarah shouted, her voice rising in urgency. She stood directly in front of Lachlan. “Lachlan, you have to save him today, whether you want to or not.”
“Oh? And what makes you think you can stop me?” Lachlan gestured towards Jared and the Thompson family’s bodyguards. “Or maybe these useless people?”
“You…” Sarah’s voice faltered as she blushed with anger.
Earlier, when Lachlan had fought with Jared, he hadn’t lost. If he really wanted to let Declan die today, no one here could stop him.
But if that happened, Lachlan would face the wrath of the Graham family and Sarah would be in trouble too! Even the entire Thompson family would bear the brunt of their anger.
If Declan died here today, the Graham family wouldn’t care whether it was intentional or not!
At this point, Jared pushed Sarah aside and asked Lachlan sternly, “Kid, what do you want for saving my young master?”
He took a deep breath before continuing, “As long as you can save him, not only will we thank you but we’ll owe you a favor!”
Lachlan raised an eyebrow at his words and said slyly, “Is that so? Are you sure about letting me save him? I have conditions.”
“What conditions?” Jared asked darkly.
“At your last auction,” Lachlan began slowly, “you had some Heavenly Spirit Jade left over… Do you still have any?”
Jared hesitated for a moment before nodding slowly, “Yes… We still have some left over from last time… Why do you ask?”
The Heavenly Spirit Jade they had at their last auction was indeed still available now but why did this kid need it?
“I want it,” said Lachlan eagerly. “Can I get it? Can you make that happen?”
Jared frowned slightly before nodding again, “Okay! As long as my young master survives because of your help, then I promise on behalf of the Graham family that we will fulfill this condition!”
“Good!” exclaimed Lachlan happily. “You just made yourself a deal!”
Then he turned his head back towards Sarah wearing an evil grin on his face, “Are you sure you want me to save him? If I do it for him, then you will have to pay a price too!”
Sarah felt shivers run down her spine at his expression but she knew she didn’t really have much choice here…
“Naturally! Of course I want Mr. Graham to be safe and sound! Whatever price needs paying is worth it if he is safe!” She replied firmly trying her best to sound confident even though she was anything but right now…
Lachlan nodded at the words and his face turned serious. “To save Mr. Graham’s life, we not only need to heal his injuries but also address the root cause of this accident! Only by removing the source of misfortune can Mr. Graham be completely safe.”
He pointed at Sarah and said, “You were with Mr. Graham when the accident happened, right? It’s because you jinxed him that he got into this mess! We need to pull out all your teeth and throw them into the sewer to get rid of Mr. Graham’s bad luck! Miss Thompson, for Mr. Graham’s safety, I’m sure you won’t mind making this sacrifice?”
Everyone was stunned by Lachlan’s words.
Miranda’s beautiful eyes shifted as she glanced at Lachlan. In her heart, she clearly understood that Lachlan was using this opportunity to get back at Sarah, seeking revenge on her behalf.
This tactic was truly cunning!
Upon hearing Lachlan’s words, Sarah’s face immediately changed. “Lachlan, you’re talking nonsense! How could I have jinxed Mr. Graham? You… you’re trying to frame me!”
“You despicable thing! You’re trying to kill me!!”
Mohamed glared at Lachlan angrily and asked him what he meant.
Lachlan smiled indifferently, shrugged, and said, “Never mind if you don’t believe me! You were just declaring your willingness to do anything for Mr. Graham, and now you’re proving yourself wrong so soon? Is Mr. Graham’s life worth less than the teeth for you?”
At this moment, Jared’s eyes flickered, a dangerous glint in his gaze as he focused on Sarah.
Feeling Jared’s gaze on her, Sarah shuddered in fear. “Jared, don’t listen to him. He is using you. He has a grudge against me so he is lying.”
“Don’t believe him, Jared. Please don’t!” Mohamed pleaded with Jared too, but it was too late. Jared had already grabbed Sarah by her hair, his expression fierce.
Better safe than sorry.
And besides, Jared had been angry with Sarah for a long time. He blamed her for causing trouble, and now they might both face punishment from their family because of it!
“You jinx! I wouldn’t have been involved if not for your presence!” Jared slapped her hard across the cheek as he spoke through gritted teeth.
Several teeth flew out with a sound!
Smack! Smack! Smack…
Jared showed no mercy, delivering consecutive slaps from different angles, striking Sarah’s face.
Sarah’s screams echoed through the air as her teeth continued to fly out.
Finally, Jared forcefully held Sarah’s cheeks, coercing her to open her mouth, and forcefully pulled out several molars from the back.
After finishing this, Jared picked up all the teeth that had flown out earlier and wrapped them in a piece of cloth.
“I’ll flush these teeth down the drain now! Mr. Willis, can you save my young master now?” Jared asked in a low voice.
“Okay!” Lachlan nodded in satisfaction and said with a smile.
At this moment, Sarah’s face was completely distorted and her mouth was so swollen that it was unbearable to look at.
Blood continuously flowed out of her mouth, and she collapsed on the ground, emitting a continuous “wuwu” sound. The intense pain caused her entire body to tremble.
That look was simply too miserable.
Miranda watched the scene with a gleam of satisfaction in her beautiful eyes, feeling as though she had finally vented out all the anger and resentment that had been building up inside her.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
The director of the emergency department and several doctors present had a twitching of their facial muscles.
But thinking back to Sarah’s arrogant and domineering attitude towards them before, the group also felt a sense of relief in their hearts.
Mohamed looked at his daughter like this, his face turned pale with anger, but he dared not speak a word to Jared.
In the next second, he gave Lachlan a fierce look and then turned to the doctors present with gritted teeth, saying, “Have you seen enough? Have you seen enough? Treat my daughter’s injuries as soon as possible! Can you do that?”
“Lachlan…”
“Lachlan!”
At this moment, Sarah’s hands were trembling as she covered her mouth and shouted incoherently.
With an extremely resentful look in his eyes, she glared at Lachlan!
If eye contact could kill, Lachlan would likely have been cut into a thousand pieces by now.
Lachlan sneered at this “impotent rage”.
He told Miranda and Emerson to take Nora outside the hospital and waited for him, then he went into the emergency room.
