Chapter 116


    “Please, God of War, spare him. He didn’t mean to disrespect you,” Lillian pleaded.


    Before Yale could respond, Lionel Interjected sharply, “Lillian, remember who you a


    o you are. You’re my fiancée How can you demean yourself by begging for another man’s life?


    “That loser Sebastian dared to sit on my godfather’s throne. Now that my godfather has returned,


    he still acts so brazenly! Killing him several times wouldn’t be enough punishment.”


    “The seat doesn’t have his name on it, so why can’t I sit here? Sebastian retorted with a smirk.


    Lionel was about to rebuke him when Yale suddenly shouted, “Shut up!”


    “Did you hear that? My godfather told you to shut up!” Lionel sneered.


    “I told you to shut up!” Yale roared, his p sending Lionel reeling with its force.


    He was furious. He had thought Lionel had gained favor with the Supreme One, which was why he


    had agreed to adopt him as his godson, hoping to curry favor with the Supreme


    One himself.


    But it was clear this wasn’t the case.


    Lionel hadn’t recognized the Supreme One at all, let alone gained his favor. Outrageously, Lionel


    was even engaged to the Supreme One’s woman!


    Ovee with rage, Yale wanted nothing more than to strike Lionel dead on the spot.


    “Why are you hitting me again, godfather? Lionel asked, his voice devoid of anger. He still felt


    admiration toward Yale, despite his teeth being knocked loose.

    “Don’t call me godfather, I never epted you as my godson,” Yale snapped


    “Godfather. I mean, God of War, what have 1 done wrong?” Lionel asked cautiously, trying to


    understand


    Yale’s:


    ‘s rage boiled over. Hecked Lionel to the ground.


    “You deceived me, and I want to kill you!”


    Still unsatisfied, he kicked Lionel repeatedly


    Lionel cried out, the pain so intense he felt as though his bones were breaking.


    The onlookers were shocked, this brutal disy was entirely unexpected.


    Despite Sebastian’s tant disrespect toward the God of War, it was Lionel, whom Yale had once


    considered adopting as his godsun, who was now suffering Yale’s wrath.


    The crowd was left bewildered by the turn of events.


    Grimacing in agony, Lionel knelt and said between sobs, “God of War, Thave never Eed to you.”


    “You dare le again!” Yale roared. “You imed to have the Supreme One’s favor. Is that not


    deceit?”


    Sweating profusely, Lionel insisted, “Please hear me out, God of War. I’ve never met the Supreme


    One, but being appointed head of the project department at Phoenix Corporation must mean some


    recognition.”


    “A mere department head means nothing to the Supreme One,” Yale retorted sharply.


    “God of War, I didn’t intend to deceive you. Please, spare my life. I won’t make such ims again,”


    Lionel pleaded repeatedly, his face drained of color.


    Yale was tempted to end Lionel’s life.


    However, Sebastian hadn’t spoken yet.


    He turned, seeking guidance.


    Through a secretive whisper, Sebastianmanded, “All but Lillian, kneel here until nightfall.”


    Yale echoed loudly, “Everyonencels here until nightfall”


    Though confused, no one dared to question or disobey themand.


    As Lillian started to kneel, Yale quickly interjected, “Ms. Smith, you may stand.”


    She looked up, surprised and bewildered.


    “This is not your concern for now. You may leave,” Sebastian said dismissively to Yale.


    Yale nodded slightly, took a few steps back, and then led his followers away.


    Gabriel shot Sebastian a re and muttered under his breath as he left.
