"Do you know what the family discipline of the Lawrence Family is? That whip can beat soone to death! When the Old Master was furious, he still wouldn’t relent and stubbornly took three lashes. After the beating, he didn’t even go to the hospital, just bought so painkillers and went back to dine with that woman. Tell , what benefits does being with her bring him?"
"Enna Clark isn’t a woman who can help him. I know the wealth of the Habsden Family can assist Baron. But everything requires balance; what Enna Clark can give him is insignificant compared to what he has to sacrifice. That’s why I say they’re not suitable. He’s Baron Lawrence, the man we’ve pinned all our hopes on, he shouldn’t be hampered by anyone. I want him to turn back and realize this, is that wrong?"
Skye Lawrence was emotionally charged, like she finally found an outlet to vent, she was letting out the emotions she’s been holding in.
"I just want him to live better, everything I do is for him. Including collaborating with you, everything I’m doing now is for his sake!"
"I do like Baron, I have selfish motives. But I’m human; it’s not like I want to like him, I can’t control my feelings. We grew up together, I don’t even know why I fell in love with my own brother. If this is wrong, why didn’t you send away? No, I shouldn’t have been born in the first place, shouldn’t I? When one day you find out everything, all you’ve lived for is a lie, a well-intentioned lie. Your pride, everything collapses. You want to hold onto the last thing that belongs to you, you want to make him better, is that wrong?"
Tears shimred in Skye Lawrence’s beautiful eyes.
Her emotional anguish was evidenced by the veins protruding on her forehead, as she stared straight at Oscar. Her questions seed directed at Oscar but also at others, at Nicholas Lawrence, at the Old Master Lawrence, and at herself.
Yet despite this, the tears in her eyes never fell. She kept her chin slightly raised throughout, maintaining the dignity expected of the First Young Lady of the Lawrence Family with her beautiful and courageous face.
"I’m not a mber of the Lawrence Family, so you don’t need to look at as if I’m crazy." Her emotions seed much calr, yet the fact she revealed this secret shows her emotions were not as calm as she appeared on the surface.
Oscar didn’t know this secret, and upon hearing her reveal it, he was visibly stunned. When he looked at her again, his gaze turned complex, and after a mont he said, "Did you know this could lead to soone’s death?"
Skye Lawrence laughed mockingly and looked into his eyes saying, "If I said I didn’t know, would you believe ?"
Initially, she just wanted to cause a stir, have the beam fall down to scare the people at the mall, make a commotion so as to let the news out about Rhine’s batch of materials being substandard, and after it was reported, manipulate the public opinion to sar Enna Clark.
Make a big fuss, so that the wedding ten days later couldn’t be held.
However, the people she instructed didn’t notice there was soone below, and the beam fell down and killed soone.
Skye Lawrence took a deep breath, the previous nightmares and the photos from the text ssage Enna Clark sent were still vivid in her mind. She closed her eyes, about to say she didn’t need anyone to believe her.
Just then, she heard the man’s calm voice, "I believe you."
