"Mom!"
Josephine Hayes cried out. Harmony Carter, seeing the sleazy hand reaching for her, was startled and quickly looked at her husband Silas Hayes for help, "Husband..."
Silas Hayes roared, "Let go of my wife! Phillip Patton, you beast."
"If you have a problem, take it up with me. What kind of skill is it to lay hands on my wife?"
Phillip Patton, with a wicked smile on his face, walked up to Silas Hayes, had him pinned to the ground, and with a lift of his foot, his leather shoe pressed down on Silas Hayes's head: "What's the point of going after you? You're just a useless dog now, do I need to pamper you?"
"Once a mighty figure in Midocen, you were second only to one but above millions."
"And now? Aren't you beneath my foot, Phillip Patton?"
"Think about me, Phillip Patton; I came from a rural area with nothing, and when I first arrived in Midocen, even dogs looked down on me."
"I, a top scholar graduate, was toyed with by you rich folks, forced to perform like a puppet."
