Chapter 34

The commotion outside the door startled both Zoe and Layla as they had just entered the room.

Layla instinctively moved to go outside.

However, Zoe grabbed Layla and shook her head at Layla.

Layla looked at Zoe curiously and said, “No. From the sounds outside, it seems they’re fighting, doesn’t it?”

Zoe smiled and shook her head.

She said, “Layla, Gavin will handle his matters. We shouldn’t add to his troubles by going out.”

“Alright.”

Although Layla was still a little worried about Gavin, Gavin’s sister had already said so. What else could she say?

It was better to stay in the room with Zoe obediently.

Meanwhile, in the corridor outside the room.

With a “puff,” a spray of blood erupted from Robert’s mouth, and his face instantly turned deathly pale. However, he showed no hesitation.

He got up from the floor and quickly crawled toward Gavin on all fours.

Then, in the corridor, he wailed at Gavin with sorrow and remorse.

“Master, I’m guilty, Master, you can punish me as you wish. I’ll accept it!”

Gavin’s brows furrowed as he watched the tearful and sniffling “Twiggy” or Robert. Gavin was indeed in rage.

However, he had no intention of punishing Robert.

This was because, thanks to Vincent’s foresight, it was likely that Robert was not in Brookspring when the Clifford family was wiped out.

If Robert had been in Brookspring, the situation with the Clifford family wouldn’t have been so perplexing.

Gavin wasn’t one to pass judgment without knowing all the facts.

So, he frowned, and his voice became colder.
