Not Enough Discipline
As time ticked by, Zayne and the rest continued kneeling on the ground. Even though their knees felt
terribly painful, none of them dared to get back up.
It wasn’t until twenty minutes later that Tommy finally barged into the room.
Charlie hurried forward to welcome him. “Mr. Lewis.”
When Zayne and the others heard that he had arrived, they looked up one by one. The moment their
gaze finally fell upon Tommy, all of them almost fainted in horror.
None of them had seen him before. But when they did, his bloodthirsty aura was enough to overwhelm
them with fear.
However, Tommy ignored Charlie as he fixed his gaze on Jared.
When he saw the knowing look Jared gave him, Tommy refrained from acknowledging him.
After all, Hilda and Maria were present. If they knew Jared was involved with Tommy, Jared’s parents
would definitely find out too.
Looking at the group kneeling on the ground, Tommy’s face turned grim before giving Charlie a tight
slap. “Didn’t I tell you to sit tight and wait?”
Charlie was utterly confounded by the slap. As for Tommy, he knelt down and helped Zayne back up to
his feet.
“I have failed to discipline my men. Please forgive me.” After that, he turned to Charlie and asked,
“What happened today?”
Charlie narrated the entire incident without holding anything back.
When he heard that it was Josh who started it, Tommy’s expression darkened. He then glanced toward
Josh who was still grimacing on the ground.
When Josh saw the murderous look in Tommy’s eyes, he gritted his teeth in his attempt to stand up
and explain. “Mr. Lewis, I—”
Tommy wasn’t bothered to listen to Josh’s explanation. Instead, he ordered, “Break all his limbs and
throw him out. He is forbidden from stepping foot in here going forward.”
The moment they heard Josh’s agonizing cries, Zayne and the others peed their pants again. The
cruelty Tommy had demonstrated struck fear into their hearts.
“Everyone, I’m sorry my subordinate has spoiled your night. All your expenses will be on the house.
Please continue to enjoy yourselves, and I’ll be sending up a few bottles of our best wine,” Tommy
explained with a slight smile.
The sudden change in his attitude bewildered everyone, who had no idea what was going on.
As if they were frozen in place, no one dared to make a move.
When he noticed everyone was unmoving, Jared replied, “In that case, Mr. Lewis, thank you for your
hospitality.”
“The pleasure is mine. I’m really sorry about today,” Tommy apologized in a servile tone.
With that, Jared returned to their private room with the two shocked girls in tow.
The moment Zayne saw them leave, he quickly trailed behind like a soulless corpse.
“Mr. Lewis, are they—”
Slap!
Before Charlie could finish, Tommy landed another slap on him.
“Do you know who Jared is?” Tommy asked, glaring at Charlie.
Charlie shook his head. “I don’t.”
“He is our overlord. Our ultimate boss.”
Charlie’s expression drastically changed the instant he heard it.
As one of Tommy’s key lieutenants, he was aware that the Templar Regiment belonged to the Dragon
Sect. In other words, Tommy was telling him that the overlord of the Dragon Sect had emerged.
Nevertheless, he had not expected the overlord to be Jared, who looked inconspicuous to the eye.
“I-In that case, was Steven defeated by him?” Charlie asked in astonishment.
