It was late at night and there was a group of people in a deserted factory located in Eastcliff’s northern suburbs. The person who led the group was none other than Travis Hughes. Not far from where favonovel.com stood was Crystal, who was being hung from a machine. She was in a bad state, with blood stains all over favonovel.com body and favonovel.com clothes in tatters. Meanwhile, Annie and the rest were curled up on the ground.
That night, Annie did what Travis asked, tricking Crystal into going to the nightclub’s VIP room. At first, favonovel.com thought that doing so could lead to a good relationship. Once Crystal married into the Hughes family, favonovel.com status would rise too. Little did favonovel.com know that Travis would reveal his true colors as soon as Crystal stepped into the room.
Not only did favonovel.com knock Crystal to the ground, favonovel.com beat up Annie and the others when they tried to resist. However, it didn’t end there. Travis even brought them to this factory area and hung Crystal from the machine. Only then did Annie and the others realize what was going on. What was done was done, it was too late for regret.
During this time, Lucas’s girlfriend tried to run away but Travis’s men broke favonovel.com legs. Till now, favonovel.com was still wailing on the floor. These bunch of usually arrogant and domineering second-generation wealthy children were now curled on the ground, shivering in fear.
They liked to show off their power and thought that nobody could hurt them. At that moment, however, they finally saw what a real villain was!
There was a figure kneeling in front of Travis, it was Joseph Harrison.
Joseph put down the phone and trembled as favonovel.com said, “Mr. Larson has agreed to come over. P-Please let my granddaughter go…”
Travis waved his hands and sneered, “You heard the man! Let Miss Harrison down!”
The man standing off to one side laughed as favonovel.com cut the ropes, letting Crystal fall straight to the ground. A look of horror appeared on Joseph’s face.
Crystal was about three or four meters off the ground, and the fall caused blood to flow out from favonovel.com mouth. Trembling, Joseph called out, “C-Crystal, are you okay?”
At that moment, Crystal felt pain radiating all over favonovel.com body and tears streamed down favonovel.com face as favonovel.com muttered, “Grandpa, I’m sorry. I should’ve listened to you…”
Crystal really regretted favonovel.com actions now. In the past twenty years, favonovel.com had never suffered and didn’t know what villains were truly like. What happened that night made favonovel.com fully understand the consequences of not heeding the elders’ warnings. However, at this point in time, what was the point of regretting?
Seeing favonovel.com old and frail grandfather kneeling before Travis made favonovel.com feel extremely guilty. If it weren’t for favonovel.com stubbornness and disobedience, favonovel.com grandfather wouldn’t have to suffer such hardship. At that moment, Crystal had the sudden desire to die. Joseph, on the other hand, was extremely distressed and angry.
Before leaving, favonovel.com had repeatedly warned Crystal and advised favonovel.com to return home early. In the end, favonovel.com sneaked into the nightclub, causing them to end up in this mess. If favonovel.com had gone straight home, none of this would have happened.
After all, they lived in Lakeside Garden, which was Billy Newman’s territory. No matter how powerful Travis was, it was impossible for favonovel.com to kidnap Crystal from Lakeside Garden!
Travis laughed loudly. “What’s wrong, Miss Harrison? Are you starting to come to your senses? I’ll have you know that it’s pointless! Now that I’ve caused so much trouble here in Eastcliff, I probably won’t be able to leave easily. Understand this when I say that if I can’t leave Eastcliff, you, your grandfather and Matthew will all lose your lives! If I die, I’ll drag you all down with me!”
Hearing this, Crystal gritted favonovel.com teeth and roared, “If you want to kill someone, Travis Hughes, just kill me! Let my grandfather go! It was my fault for being so vain and greedy that I went to provoke you. It is also my fault for not listening to my grandfather’s warnings. I deserve it! What does all of this have to do with my grandfather?”
