The Million-Dollar Heart
Chapter 357
On the other side of town, Richard stormed into the bakery with his entourage and bought away every last cake on the shelves. Then, after snatching up a dozen blowguns, he charged towards the nursing home with fury in his eyes.
At that very moment, Baron Brooks was lounging comfortably in a deckchair, soaking up the sun and listening to an opera recording. Life without that pesky Richard was bliss!
Just as he reached for the glass of water on the side table, the door to his room burst open with a violent kick. Startled, he spilled water all over himself and was instantly enraged. Whirling around, he saw Richard leading a posse with an air of vengeance, each one armed with cakes of all things.
Baron' brow furrowed in anger, "What's gotten into you, you old jerk? Why busting into my place with all those cakes? Did Richard finally find his conscience and decide to throw him a birthday bash? He thought.
But that couldn't be right; his birthday was months away, deep in December.
Baron braced himself as suspicious picked his nerves. What kind of nasty trick was Richard planning this time?
Richard merely glanced at him dismissively. Without bothering with a single word, he turned to his bodyguards with an order, "Let 'em have it!"
Before Baron could even grasp what was happening, the guns were loaded with cakes and, with a loud "BANG!", and the pastries smashed precisely onto his bed.
Baron was furious as he bellowed, "Richard! Do you want to get yourself killed?!"
Ignoring his outburst, Richard stood in the center of the room, leaning on his cane with an air of unshakable calm.
The bodyguards fired the cakes one after another, and in moments, the walls, the ceiling, and the furniture in the room were all plastered with creamy shrapnel.
Baron was apoplectic, so much so that he nearly passed out.
