It turned out that the root of Wrenna's behavior stemmed from her family. All her family members were just that cold-blooded. In order to reach greater heights, they were willing to sacrifice her.

It would be weirder for someone not to become cold-blooded while growing up in a household like that.

Then Harold thought about the Campbell family. I think my family's like that, too. Are all prestigious families this heartless?

Wrenna's father didn't want to argue with her any longer. Thus, he relayed a ruthless order to his son and the bodyguards. “You little sh*t! Tinny, I want you to lock your sister and Char up in the basement! As for the punk she brought back with her, break all his limbs before feeding him to the fishes in the river!”

After the men in black received their orders, they promptly approached Wrenna, Harold, and Charlotte.

Wrenna's face paled when she heard her father demand Harold's limbs to be broken before being tossed into the river. Quickly, she stepped in between the burly men and Harold before explaining the situation to her father. “No! This has nothing to do with him! He's just a guy I asked to pretend to be Char's father! Let him go!”

It was then she realized that, at some point, Harold had wormed his way into her heart.


Why else would she be afraid when she heard her father requesting Harold's limbs to be broken?

“No! He knows too much. Even if I let him go, Adam won't. Drag him out!” Mercilessly, her father continued to order the burly men.

As for Harold himself, he was just watching everything unfold before him coldly.

Seeing that her father was unwilling to budge, Wrenna panicked and shouted, “Fine, I'll get married! If you let him go, I'll marry Adam!”

“This isn't an issue of whether you're marrying Adam or not, Wrenna! The problem is that he knows too much now, so he must die!” Justin explained.

His father nodded, continuing to insist that Harold must die.

Since her father and brother were still unwilling to let Harold go, Wrenna threatened them viciously, “If he dies, I'll die with him! I want to see how you'll explain the situation to Adam when that happens!”

“You...” Her father almost blew his top when he heard that.

With a sneer, Justin questioned, “What do you think will happen to Charlotte if you die, Wrenna? Are you really willing to abandon her?”

His words hit Wrenna where it hurt most and stunned her.
