Chapter 454 Ultimate Punishment
Before he could turn around, he heard a familiar voice. “Are you guys okay?” He froze for a good instant and did not dare to turn around. Why does this voice sound like Mr. Nolan?
If he was uncertain a second ago, Olivia’s following words confirmed his guess. “Is this the kind of person you hire?”
At this point, Cornelius slowly turned around and was not surprised to see the face that shook him to the core—it was Eugene Nolan. All of a sudden, he was out of breath as he lay motionless on the ground for a long time.
Meanwhile, Eugene could not be bothered about it. He could only think about comforting Olivia as he reached out to pull her up. “My bad. Stand up and let me see if you’re injured.”
Olivia took a deep breath. “I’m fine. He claims to be the patrol officer here on the island and that he knows you. He also told me that he could help me collect my gifts quickly, so I didn’t think too much before he took us on a detour just to get here. He planned to sexually assault me.”
Eugene squinted as he turned to the man on the ground. He tried to recall who he was but was unable to as he had way too many employees. Then, he turned to Kyle. “Does he work here?”
Kyle immediately lowered his head and apologized. “Yes, Mr. Nolan. My apologies for my poor management. I’ll take full responsibility!”
Right away, Eugene’s face dropped as his voice sounded callous. “Indeed. While I’m around, you allowed my employee to touch my woman under the guise of knowing me—you don’t want this job anymore, do you?”
Kyle was in utter shock while his heart thumped. Once again, he lowered his head. “I’m sorry, Mr. Nolan. You can punish me!”
Eugene’s eyes were completely cold. “Head to the punishment hall for fifty spanks!”
Fifty spanks meant spanking one’s bottom using bamboo planks—a person would basically be half-dead after fifty spanks. However, Kyle did not dare say a word and just acknowledged it, knowing well who Olivia was to Eugene.
Then, Eugene turned to the man on the ground. “You are pretty bold, aren’t you?”
His tone did not fluctuate too much but it was daunting enough to make Cornelius’ heart skip. “Mr. Nolan, I’m sorry. I didn’t know they were your friends. Please let me go!”
Eugene’s indifferent voice sounded out. “Let you go? Are you out of your mind?”
Right now, Cornelius’ body was quivering, and his face was beaded with perspiration. “Mr. Nolan, I was wrong. I didn’t touch her at all.”
Eugene responded with yet another callous smile, “I know better than you whether you didn’t touch her or you just weren’t able to.” As he finished, he commanded the security on both sides, “Throw him into the sea and feed him to the fishes!”
The security guards responded indifferently, “Yes, Mr. Nolan.”
Eugene then turned around and grabbed Olivia’s hand. “Let’s go.”
Hearing this, Cornelius almost passed out. Feeding someone to the fish was the ultimate punishment on Promise Island, and no one in history had ever been subjected to this punishment. It involved tying someone up, throwing them into the sea, and letting nature take its course. Whoever was thrown in the sea while tied up would either get devoured by sea creatures or drown. He did not expect to be the first person to go through this!
Panicking, he crawled toward Eugene. “Mr. Nolan, I’m terribly sorry. I really am! I won’t ever do that again.”
As he spoke, he reached for Eugene only for him to kick him out of the way. “You should feel fortunate. If I were to do it myself, I’d make sure that you’d wish you were dead!”
Cornelius was sent flying three meters away. Once again, he fell on the ground and snorted, but this time, he didn’t get up again.
Eugene then gave him a callous look, reckoning that he should not be too violent since North was around.
