chapter 33 Whoever dares to touch Linger will die!

Nelly Xu watched this scene, feeling disheartened! All along, her grandfather had favored her uncles' families, and he had always looked down on her father, Tyson Xu. To change this situation, Nelly Xu had worked hard and persevered, enduring hardships to establish this steel mill, and she had achieved some success. Every year, the money she contributed to the Xu family was the most substantial. But unexpectedly, all her contributions couldn't compare to her uncles' sweet words. Now, the Xu family was willing to sacrifice her lifelong happiness to climb higher. Such a Xu family was not worth staying in. Nelly Xu gave a bitter smile and said coldly, "Stop it all!" "You wicked child, how dare you talk to your elders like this..." scolded her uncle. Nelly Xu suddenly picked up a pair of scissors from the side and pressed them against her neck. "Everyone, get out and let me be alone for a while, or else I'll die in front of you." The scene fell silent. Her mother, Mamie Li, collapsed to the ground in shock. She sobbed, "Nelly Xu, you... are you trying to kill your mother?" "Quickly put down the scissors, please, put them down. If something happens to you, your mother won't survive..." Nelly Xu said, "Mom, please leave, I want to be alone for a while." Tyson Xu swallowed hard, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said, "Go out, all of you. If my daughter has any mishap, I'll die with you..." Suddenly, Thorne Fang, who had been silent all this time, spoke up. "Nelly Xu, I know you haven't realized the truth yet, so let me tell you the real situation." "Last night, in order to save Pryor Ye, I contacted the Four Heavenly Kings, but there has been no news." "This is clearly a case of murder, and they've gone into hiding. Pryor Ye is already dead!" "And, Hans Chu will certainly not let your family off. If I don't help, the entire Xu family will be buried with you." "You'd better think it over." Maurice Xu cursed, "You heard it too. If Hans Chu takes his anger out on the Xu family, our family could be wiped out!" "The only one who can save our family now is Thorne Fang." Nelly Xu sneered, "Don't worry, even if I die, I won't involve your Xu family." Thorne Fang smirked, "You will come begging to me." Saying that, Thorne Fang turned to leave. But as he opened the door, he found a young man standing outside. Pryor Ye! It was actually Pryor Ye! Not only was he still alive, but he also seemed completely unharmed! Did the Four Heavenly Kings fail? How could they have failed when all four of them joined forces? Thorne Fang's heart skipped a beat, and he had a premonition of something ominous. Pryor Ye walked into the room and looked at the scissors at Nelly Xu's neck, feeling tormented. Under the gaze of numerous shocked eyes, he slowly walked over to Nelly Xu. "Nelly Xu, I'm sorry I'm late." Nelly Xu was initially stunned, then she pounded his chest with her fists, crying hysterically. She wanted to vent all her grievances. "damn, where were you last night?" "Do you know how worried I was?" "If you had been a moment later, I would have died for you, you **tard!" Pryor Ye held Nelly Xu tightly and said, "Nelly Xu, it's my fault." "Don't worry, I won't leave your side from now on." Maurice Xu angrily slammed the table. "Let go, Pryor Ye. I will never acknowledge you as my Xu family's son-in-law." "If you really care about Nelly Xu, leave her now." "This time you escaped, but Hans Chu will definitely not let it go. He may even implicate my entire Xu family..." "Now only Thorne Fang can save my family! Get out while you still can!" Pryor Ye glanced at Maurice Xu, his eyes filled with a murderous intent. It was he who forced Nelly Xu to pick up the scissors! Thorne Fang suddenly gloated, "Look, Hans Chu is here with his men." "Nelly Xu, this is your last chance. I advise you not to suffer a beating before crossing the river." Maurice Xu turned pale when he saw Hans Chu outside the window. He hurriedly moved forward to separate Pryor Ye and Nelly Xu. However, Pryor Ye stopped him with his hand. "Who dares to touch Nelly Xu, dies!" Maurice Xu's face turned red with anger. "You scoundrel, you've ruined my family..." At this moment, Hans Chu and his men entered the room. Maurice Xu quickly said, "Mr. Liu, it's all Pryor Ye's fault. It has nothing to do with my Xu family." "If you want revenge, go after Pryor Ye, even if you have to kill him. We won't interfere." However, Hans Chu completely ignored Maurice Xu and walked straight toward Nelly Xu. Nelly Xu's nerves tensed up again, and she quietly gripped the scissors. Tyson Xu also silently gripped a stool. If the situation took a turn for the worse, he would take action. But, to everyone's surprise, Hans Chu not only didn't make a move, but he also suddenly and decisively knelt down with a thud.
