Chapter 198 Please Call Me Boss Gavin
Looking at Giulio's fierce expression, especially his stubble and swollen face, one can see...
Jim swallowed hard.
He has always been a timid person. When he was a cowboy, he was always submissive and the one who was always bullied.
But the arrival of the apocalypse took away all the cowboys who had bullied him.
He teamed up with another cowboy who was barely surviving, then met Edward and returned to camp with him.
He happened to meet Jennifer there.
A woman who can capture a man's attention will always bring about some changes in him, for better or for worse.
This same principle, when applied to Jim, made him somewhat sad.
On his first day at the camp, Jim clearly saw that Jennifer's eyes were only on Edward, and she didn't see him at all.
But he was both afraid of and respected Edward.
Edward led everyone to relocate twice, avoiding six hordes of zombies, and found the most suitable campsite—safe, reliable, and with a beautiful environment, making everyone feel like they were on vacation.
Edward was brave and fearless, leaving the camp several times to return from danger and bring back what everyone needed: medicine, supplies, and daily necessities. He was the heart of the camp and the person Jim respected most.
If enough time passes, Jim will definitely not dare to make a move on Jennifer.
He admired Edward, yet he also feared him.
Because while taking care of the camp, Edward also killed three people who tried to rob them on the road.
Edward killed with such decisiveness that it chilled Jim to the bone.
So, given enough time, Jim assured him he would never do that stupid thing that he now regrets and terrifies him.
But Edward disappeared too soon; he left the camp and never returned.
Jim, too, was far from forgetting Jennifer.
And so, on that bewitched afternoon, after the sun had completely set.
Jim, who was on guard duty, saw Jennifer and Aunt Elana, who was also Uncle Giulio's wife, returning together from the pool upstream of the mountain stream.
They had obviously taken a shower. Although the weather was cool, filth was sometimes more frightening to women than temperature.
Jennifer's hair, freshly washed and still wet, hung down her chest after she overcame the cold.
This also touched Jim's heart.
He stood guard at the highest point of the ravine, following the trail of saliva, until Giulio came to relieve him of his post, never forgetting Jennifer's swaying figure as she walked away.
It wasn't too late then, and the night was still long, so Jim and Giulio sat by the stream, smoked some cigarettes, and drank some wine.
When two men get together to chat, the conversation almost always revolves around women.
Jim now instinctively wants to forget his foolish decision; he desperately doesn't want to remember the stupid things he did.
If Edward hadn't come back, Jim probably wouldn't have needed more than a few days to convince the cowardly version of himself he was last night.
All he remembered was that he and Giulio talked about the sexy Jennifer, and the two of them chatted at length about Jennifer's existence.
Jim talked about his love for Jennifer, and Jennifer's love for Edward. At the end of the conversation, they talked about Edward's disappearance.
Jim's drunken banter gradually led him to develop different thoughts.
Giulio, on the other hand, had long planned to take over the entire camp.
Women are always a good starting point; the two of them, each harboring their own secrets, finally made a pact about what they would do that night.
But—I regretted it!
Thinking of this, Jim took one last look at the menacing Giulio in front of him.
Jim suddenly couldn't help but swallow.
Yes, I regretted it last night. Although I made a mistake, I didn't do anything wrong until the end. Do I still have a chance to exonerate myself in front of Edward?
And Giulio—
I've already regretted it once, so can I regret it a second time?
Edward is back, so why should I listen to Giulio's stupid words? If I can completely break off my relationship with Giulio, then I won't be able to get away with Edward's nonsense.
At least they won't punish us so severely?
Thinking of this, Jim suddenly drew his pistol and pointed it at Giulio's head.
As for Giulio, one second he was still thinking about Jennifer's big butt, and the next second he had Jim's gun pointed at him!
This sudden change completely stunned Giulio. After a moment of stunned silence, he immediately raised his right hand, drew his pistol, and fired a shot into Jim's calf.
boom!
After the gunshot, the entire camp fell silent. Everyone else who was working looked over, and even Jennifer, who was hiding in her tent, couldn't help but stick her gun out and look at Giulio and Jim in horror.
Giulio, after firing his gun with unusual decisiveness, immediately got up and kicked the already staggering Jim to the ground!
After the wolf stomped hard on Jim's gun-wielding hand, Giulio listened to Jim's screams, then turned back with satisfaction to look at the others watching.
"Did you all see that? This idiot actually pointed a gun at me, at a Vietnam War veteran! Haha, who does he think he is? Does he think he's Edward?"
At this point, Giulio glanced sideways at the other three and noticed the fear and timidity in their eyes.
Giulio was particularly pleased with that timidity.
Indeed, the braver people in the camp were all out adventuring with Edward, while those who remained in the camp were the relatively timid ones.
As for Giulio, he's fifty-six years old, an old man, so of course he wouldn't risk his life for Edward and his gang.
So, even after Edward disappeared, this old, hungry wolf still had the right to be the leader of the camp—even an aging wolf king had the right to enjoy the softest entrails and play with the youngest female wolf!
Thinking of this, Giulio gave Jennifer a special look, and his gaze made her shudder and shrink even further into the tent.
Seeing Jennifer instinctively back away, Giulio revealed a satisfied, sinister grin.
The girl got scared, haha, she got scared, so sooner or later she'll willingly let him ride on her!
Thinking about it this way, it's actually a good thing that I didn't succeed last night. While forcing myself on a woman is a very pleasurable thing, it's also a different kind of pleasure when a woman comes to me on her own.
Although he was getting old, his love for women had never changed; he simply loved young women.
boom! ! !
Before Giulio could snap out of his reverie, the sudden gunshot stunned him completely!
He looked at his shattered right hand in disbelief.
What's going on?
Who fired the shot?
That's incredibly accurate!
wrong!
Jim was in a panic just now, and before I cursed Jim, what was he going to say?
But Giulio had no time to think anymore; terror, fear, and pain completely overwhelmed him.
He ignored the gun that had been knocked away, and instead held his shattered right hand in front of him, staring blankly at the broken bones and the only remaining finger.
"This—hiss—ah—ahhhhhh!!!"
A scream belatedly escaped his lips, merging with Jim's screams.
At this point, he didn't feel any pain yet, but although the pain hadn't hit him yet, the fear that exceeded his limits made him scream like a woman.
As he began to scream, the remaining three people in the camp finally emerged from their daze.
The next moment, the remaining cowboy hurriedly grabbed his gun and hid behind a tree stump, looking in terror toward the camp entrance in the distance.
"Who the hell, who is it, who's shooting!"
The cowboy growled fearfully, and in response to his growl, two muffled footsteps approached.
A moment later, Edward emerged from behind a tree near the entrance, stared intently at the two screaming figures, and approached them.
"Love—Edward?!!"
In the distance, Aunt Elana finally realized what was happening. She frantically rushed behind Giulio, grabbed his clothes, and explained to Edward in a trembling voice.
"My God, you're alive! This is—this is wonderful, Edward!"
"I mean, I really didn't expect you to still be alive. Wait, no, I mean we all miss you so much, my husband misses you too, really!"
"Shut up, Elana. I don't want to hear your stupid small talk. I just want to know what's going on at the camp."
At that moment, Edward interrupted Aunt Elana.
He then pointed the gun at Elana's forehead.
Jim had long since dropped his gun and was lying on the ground clutching his leg, howling in pain. Giulio's gun and hand had also been crippled by him, so the only remaining threats to him were his few healthy men, especially Elana, who was closest to him.
As Edward raised his gun to aim at Elana, Jennifer, in the distant tent, finally saw Edward's face clearly.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she rushed out of the tent, sobbing as she threw herself at Edward.
Edward's expression darkened considerably upon seeing Jennifer's wailing cries.
He knew that his worst fears had come true!
If there was anything else he was worried about regarding his camp, besides the possibility of it being attacked by other gangs and zombies, his biggest concern was Jennifer.
After all, although the camp was set up with three men and two women, Aunt Elana and Giulio were tied together. If she couldn't return for a while, Jennifer would be completely isolated and helpless!
And now—
Think of Jim's leg wounded by Giulio, think of Giulio firing indiscriminately in the camp, and think of Jennifer's wailing.
Edward let Jennifer jump into his arms while asking her a question with a stiff expression.
"Jennifer, what on earth did they do?!"
"Waaaaaahh ...
Jennifer was crying so hard she couldn't speak. As she hugged Edward and wept, Gavin casually placed his right hand on his waist, walked out from the direction of the jungle, and whispered to Edward.
"Edward, is this your lover?"
"Um?"
The sudden sound startled Jennifer, who looked up at Gavin.
Meanwhile, everyone else's eyes were also fixed on Gavin.
Edward, his body stiff, hugged Jennifer, and after only a moment's hesitation, responded to Gavin with veins bulging on his forehead.
"I guess so. At least if I wanted to get married in the apocalypse, this girl would be my first choice. I—I really like her."
"But you've got to laugh at me, boss. I actually tried to steal your spot, and I couldn't even get my own little camp sorted out!"
At this point, Edward turned to look at Giulio, whose mouth was agape in astonishment, so much so that he forgot to even howl. He forcefully released Jennifer and stepped in front of Giulio.
"Wait, I... I didn't do anything—I can explain!"
Giulio let out a strained roar, but if he hadn't said it, it would have been fine. But his words only fueled Edward's anger, and he kicked Giulio in the chest.
He didn't want to ask Jennifer what had happened, nor did he care what had happened.
All he knew was that the apocalypse was destined to be a world ravaged by evil, and that today, someone would die a terrible death!
Perhaps there's more than one!
As for Gavin, after watching Edward kick Giulio to the ground, Gavin frowned and went to the trembling Jennifer, asking her softly.
"Jennifer, right? Edward talked about you with me in the car."
"Yes—yes, Gavin, I've heard your radio show and watched you play basketball. I mean before the apocalypse, I—I—"
Jennifer trembled slightly, partly from the shock of the chaos before her eyes, and partly from seeing Gavin.
Gavin, however, didn't want to listen to the female fans' small talk, so he interrupted Jennifer's pleasantries and spoke to her directly.
"Wait, Jennifer, we'll have plenty of time to talk later, but right now, I just want to hear your opinion: who do you think deserved to die while Edward was away from your camp?"
"this?!!"
Jennifer was startled by Gavin's words and instinctively froze.
Seeing that Jennifer was standing there with her mouth open but not saying anything, Gavin shook his head, lamenting Jennifer's cowardice and lack of intelligence, while continuing to remind her.
"Don't look at me, answer my question: Who deserves to die?"
"I know, it was Giulio. He climbed into my tent last night with Jim!"
"Jim?!!"
At that moment, Edward was furious. He grabbed Giulio by the neck, lifted him up, and slammed him to the ground.
Then he suddenly turned around and pointed the gun at Jim's head!
Just then, seeing Edward's extreme anger, Jennifer paused slightly before quickly calling out to him.
"Wait, don't shoot, Edward, Jim—he saved me! He fought with Giulio, he thwarted Giulio's plan, I'm clean, Giulio didn't do anything, believe me!"
At this point, Jennifer became extremely nervous.
Because in his eyes, Jim's life and death were already tied to her chastity.
Even an American woman in love cares about her lover's feelings. She didn't want Edward to think she had been sexually assaulted, and Jim was clearly the evidence.
Jim, despite the severe pain in his calf, nodded frantically upon hearing Jennifer's words and shouted at Edward.
"She's right, I stopped Giulio, but he couldn't do anything. Believe me, Edward, I tried, really, I tried!"
"Please, don't kill me. I really tried my best. Look at Giulio's face, I'm the one who hit him. He hit me in the face too. I can't beat him, but I swear I tried my best. I—"
"Shut up!!!"
The next moment, Edward roared, interrupting Jim, and then suddenly grabbed Giulio.
"Boss, I have some things to do. Could you please look after Jennifer and the camp for me? Oh, and by the way, that old woman is Giulio's wife. Thanks!"
After saying that, Edward picked up the frantically struggling Giulio, broke many of Giulio's teeth with the butt of his rifle, and then dragged Giulio into the grove.
As Giulio continued to scream in agony, Gavin sighed, then approached the trembling Jennifer and Elana and spoke softly.
"Hello, Jennifer. Let me formally introduce myself. I'm Gavin, Gavin King, Edward's current boss."
"You see, being the boss is obviously a troublesome thing. You also have to deal with some problems that your subordinates, who are consumed by anger, can't handle on their own."
Before the two could react, Gavin suddenly pulled out a silver dagger from his clothes and viciously stabbed it into Elana's jaw!
Before Elana could struggle, Gavin dodged the splattered blood and plunged the dagger into Elana's eye socket.
Since Giulio is destined to die, Gavin will not spare Elana no matter what, regardless of whether she deserves to die or not.
Because Gavin wouldn't underestimate the bond between an old married couple, nor would he allow such hidden dangers to appear in his current camp.
Elana died instantly without even letting out a scream. Gavin pushed Elana's body aside, then went to Jim's side, squatted down, and looked at Jim's injured leg.
"Are you Jim, the one Edward and I were talking about?"
"Yes—yes—Gavin, I—"
"Please call me Boss Gavin, Jim, if you don't want me to pay extra attention to the inside story of this whole thing."
