The Death Penalty

Coincidentally, the Turner family was holding their family banquet that day.

The banquet hall of the Turner residence was filled with people, but one of the scions, Timothy, was nowhere in sight.

Every time that very day came in the past, he would personally present his gift to Titus—the patriarch of the Turner family—and receive the man’s praise under the envious gazes of his peers.

That day, however, he did not turn up.

In the corner of the hall stood a middle-aged man in a black suit. A frown marred his countenance as he asked, “Where’s Timothy?”

He was Timothy’s father and Titus’ eldest son, Hank Turner.

In other words, he was the future successor to the Turner family.

Beside Hank was a man who seemed to be a servant. Not daring to look him in the eye, the man stammered timidly, “Mr. Timothy w-went out!”

“Where did he go?” Hank demanded, his brows knitting together.

“I-I don’t know.” The servant’s head hung all the lower.

Upon hearing that, Hank went ballistic. “You don’t know? What’s the use of me employing you when you don’t even know where he went? You lots are good-for-nothing! Phone him and tell him to rush back within half an hour no matter where he is or which woman’s bed he’s in!”
