Dexter could not quite believe it, yet the facts were right before his eyes.

Thud!

His legs gave out, and he fell to his knees before Kai.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Chance! Please spare me!”

Dexter frantically pleaded for mercy even as he prostrated himself.

If Kai were merely Josephine’s boyfriend, he would not have been so petrified. After all, the fact that he dared to owe the Sullivan family money made it clear that he was not afraid of them. Despite being the wealthiest family in Horington, the Sullivan family was only involved in legal businesses, so someone in the underground circles like him was not the least bit intimidated.

Alas, not only had Josephine publicly acknowledged Kai as her boyfriend but Tommy and Walter had also treated him as their honored guests. As such, he was not someone Dexter could afford to offend.

At the sight of Dexter’s pathetic demeanor, Kai snorted and strode right past him.

After Kai had left, Dexter slumped onto the ground. A puddle had long since formed beneath him.
