367 Exasperated and Furious
This was why all the corpses on the ground belonged to the men working for the Masseys.
Kevin had said he had subdued Lincoln, but what they saw here was completely different. So, was Kevin just trying to trick them into coming in? Bastard!
Saul regretted that he had not noticed Kevin’s abnormal behavior sooner. Instead, he had believed Kevin’s words wholeheartedly and thus had entered this trap.
“Kevin Copeland, you bastard! You dare betray me? Come out this instant!” Saul roared. He wanted nothing more than to cut Kevin into pieces.
Suddenly, all the lights inside the house lit up.
“What do you need me for, Dad?” Kevin smiled at Saul from where he was on the second floor of the residence. Beside him stood Lincoln, Bernard, and the others.
“You bastard! Do I not treat you well? You dare sell me out?” Saul was trembling in fury as he pointed at Kevin and cursed him.
He would never expect Kevin to betray him at such a crucial moment!
“You treat me well, you say? You’ve been a thorn in my eye for a long time, old man! Did your family treat me with any dignity? My f**king life is worse than a dog’s! And yet, you have the nerve to say you treat me well!
“Today, I’ll show you what I, Kevin Copeland, am capable of. The two of you will die today!” Kevin said coldly.
He was the eldest son of the Copeland family, but he had been living a horrible life ever since marrying Jessica! Saul always had a smile on his face, but he would also treat Kevin like crap!
Kevin wanted nothing more than to beat Saul up properly!
“You! Urgh!” Saul was furious and taken aback at the same time. He did not expect the meek and cowardly Kevin to betray him, and this was why he had failed to see through Kevin’s nefarious scheme.
“Kevin Copeland, you good–for–nothing! You dare betray us? Come down here now if your have the guts to! Believe it or not, we’ll wipe your family out in Southlake City!” Jessica cursed loudly as well.
Upon hearing Jessica’s words, Kevin was more determined than before. Jessica was still talking to him with that attitude’despite being at Death’s door. How dared she? To Jessica, he was no better than a dog!
“Jessica Massey, you bitch! If you hadn’t begged and groveled in front of me, telling me that

“Your family is violent toward me, treating me like I’m inferior just because you gained some power. Today, I’ll exterminate the Massey family with my own hands!”
Kevin vented all the anger and resentment in his heart.
Jessica was so enraged that she stomped on the ground, cursing at the top of her voice, “Kevin Copeland, you bastard! I’ll kill you today, believe it or not!”

In was a man with no status, so she could do anything to him as she pleased.

Kevin smiled. Jessica seemed to be oblivious to her current situation. Even in a situation where she was unable to protect herself from danger, she was still thinking about killing him. How hilarious that was!
Saul and Jessica were now knee–deep in a difficult situation. Kevin did not bother to exchange meaningless words with Jessica. Now, he suddenly realized how foolish he had been to marry such a stupid woman.
“Saul, you’ve been such a useless head of the family. Even your son–in–law has betrayed you!” Lincoln said, grinning
“Lincoln, what do you want to do?” Saul asked grimly.
“This depends on what the lord of Diadem Hall wants.” Lincoln laughed.
“The lord of Diadem Hall?” Saul was stunned.
What lord? He had never heard about the lord of Diadem Hall!
“All hail the Diatoranian God of War!” Lincoln suddenly lowered his head in deference.
A group of armed soldiers surged in, surrounding Saul and his entourage. Caspian walked in calmly, Sylvia after him.
“Greetings, Mr. Lynch!”
“Greetings, Lord Caspian!”
Everyone knelt as soon as they saw Caspian.
“Caspian Lynch!” Saul’s eyes burned in rage as he suddenly had a realization. Everything that was happening tonight was all part of Caspian’s plan!
Suddenly, Saul was overcome with despair. He had schemed and planned all he could to defeat Caspian, but he failed anyway.
Caspian was the man behind everything, and Saul had not even realized it.

Saul gave Kevin a look. Everything was this good–for–nothing son–in–law’s fault. He would not be in this situation if Kevin had not betrayed the Masseys suddenly.
If he ended up leaving this place alive this day, he would kill Kevin with his two hands.
“Greetings, Mr. Lynch!” Kevin said to Caspian with a smile. He was more sober than ever at this moment. Fortunately, he had turned to Caspian’s side at the right time. He would meet a worse ending than that of the Masseys otherwise.
“You did well,” Caspian said, chuckling.
Kevin immediately knelt in front of Caspian with a loud thud and said passionately, “Thank you, Mr. Lynch! It’s my honor to work for you!”
Saul and his entourage looked at him with disdain. Kevin had behaved like a lapdog in front of Saul, too.
Saul knew Kevin well. Kevin was a fence–sitter who would change sides the moment things went south.
Caspian knew this, too. He did not care about Kevin at all.
He turned to Saul and said sarcastically, “It’s been a long time since we’ve last met, right, Uncle?”
Saul was enraged upon hearing that. They had met some time ago in Riverside Villa, but Caspian was just saying this to humiliate him.
He wanted nothing more than to kill Caspian and cut him up. He resented himself more for not seeing through Caspian’s schemes and tricks.
“Cut the crap. If you want to deal with me, sure. Let’s see if you’re capable of doing that!” Saul snapped coldly. “Strike! Kill Caspian first before everything else!”
The Masseys‘ fighters looked at each other in bewilderment. They knew that they were in a dire situation and that it was better for them to carve a path out for themselves by killing the men on the other side. That way, they might have a chance of survival.
Caspian felt helpless upon witnessing this.
Were those people still blind to the situation
how were in
A rapid series of gunshots were fired in the villa, and every fighter working for the Masseys collapsed atop a puddle of their blood.
“Oh…” Saul was overcome with despair. Firearms were illegal in Diatoran, and not even powerful figures could get their hands on them. However, every one of Caspian’s men was armed with guns.

“Caspian Lynch! Who the hell are you?” Saul asked, terrified.
“Did they not tell you? I’m the Diatoranian God of War!” Caspian replied nonchalantly. “The Masseys have done every evil deed possible. Today will be the day you die!”
Caspian’s responsibility, in his opinion, was not just to protect Diatoran but also to protect the safety of its people.
An existence as poisonous as Saul’s needed to be eliminated so the people could live happy lives.
Upon hearing Caspian’s words, Saul trembled in fear. It seemed like he would not be able to get himself out of this situation!
