Chapter 253: 253:Threatening

Panic surged within Rey, his thoughts spiraling into a frenzy of paranoia.

He wondered if he had somehow angered Leon without realizing it? Or was Leon going to go over remnants of the families until everyone was dead?

Despite the turmoil raging within him, Rey forced himself to maintain a facade of calm.

He couldn't afford to show weakness, not in front of Leon. But beneath the composed exterior, his heart pounded with dread, his hands trembling ever so slightly.

"Did you not hear me, or are you deaf?"

"HUHH!"

A deep silence prevailed for a moment.

Rey's heart almost skipped a beat when his nephew spoke like that, making him wonder if he had heard something wrong.

His heart lurched in his chest, a cold shiver running down his spine as he struggled to comprehend the meaning behind Leon's ominous command.

His mind raced with a whirlwind of emotions, fear gripping him like a vice.
