The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 603 Black Sheep Get Beaten Up

Xander was on the verge of a mental breakdown. Things were fine in the afternoon, but his plan had abruptly gone to shambles.

With Raoul holding his collar and hissing threats, Xander shook like a leaf.

The injuries he had sustained on his face were still aching. If he received another beating, his weak body would give up. He might even suffer from broken ribs,

Yet, he could not do such a revolting thing in front of the others.

He would rather die than pretend to drop a soap bar in front of them.

When Raoul heard no response, he shook the latter and snapped, “You have three seconds. Choose.”

Xander shook his head. He wanted neither option. “I won’t choose! I won’t! Please let me go! I wasn’t lying. I’ll definitely drag that stupid Cedrick to hell and make sure he never crawls out of it!”

Raoul snorted before spitting on the floor. “You’re a trust fund baby with no power or influence. You can’t even win against me, but you’re claiming to be able to defeat Cedrick? You’ve been ordering me around the entire afternoon. Do you really think of me as your plaything, huh?”

Raoul then threw Xander to the ground and ordered his lackeys to restrain the man, pinning him against the wall.

“Since you’re refusing to choose, Mr. Xander, I’ll do it for you. Let’s have both options. We’ll have you do the performance before giving you a beating.

“No!” Xander screamed when he felt someone undoing his zipper.

Unable to stand what was going to happen next, he roared, “I’m the son of the Jenson family, a family that’s one of the three wealthiest families in Salinsburgh! Although Cedrick has taken away my father’s power, he was once a mighty man who commanded over others! If you do this to me, he’s going to come after you!”

However, Raoul lifted his fist to punch Xander in the face, making stars form in the latter’s vision.

“Who’s going to care about you now that you’ve been thrown into jail? I’ve never been scared of anyone’s threats. You will have to obey me!”

Xander’s pants fell, and he was about to lose his mind.

The cheering of the others echoed in the cell, and everyone was watching the drama unfold, seemingly keen to watch the high and mighty privileged man be humiliated.

Xander wished for death, still thrashing to no avail.

Raoul’s delighted laughs rang in his head. Just as he was about to be forced into the performance, an officer in the corridor knocked the steel bars with his baton.
