Chapter 349 A Cruel World

Eric’s reaction satisfied Saul, and he smirked smugly.

Saul planned to make Eric the scapegoat, if he ever needed one, from the moment Eric worked

for him.

He made the necessary arrangements beforehand by having Eric’s entire family move into Massey Manor.

They were all in his hands, so Eric had no other choice. He had to agree to take the fall for the Masseys, or his family would go down with him.

If Eric showed any sign of protest, Saul would instantly kill off Eric’s entire family!

Feeling helpless, Eric relented. He clenched his jaw and declared, “Fine! I’ll do it!”

However, he glared at Saul and added, “You’d better keep your word. If anything happens to my family, I’ll take you down with me!”

This was his only option. If he did not take the fall, his family would be in danger.

With his family at stake, he could not be selfish and save his own skin. All he could do was agree to Saul’s demand.

Saul smiled in response to the change in Eric’s stance.

“Don’t worry. Even if you die, I’ll take good care of your family. I’ll give them a handsome sum and ensure they’re satisfied!” Saul assured with a smirk.

“You knew this day would come, didn’t you, Saul? But I’m warning you. If you break your promise, I’ll make you pay, even if it costs me my life!” Eric snarled with a twisted expression.

Alas, Saul simply scoffed.

He was amused by Eric’s attempt to threaten him. How was Eric supposed to do anything to him once he was arrested by the authorities and charged with the crimes?

Meanwhile, Kevin felt sympathetic as he looked at the despairing Eric.

Thanks to this incident, he came to an understanding. The Massey family was a ticking time bomb, and he could very well end up in Eric’s shoes someday.

Having gained clarity, Kevin realized he needed to prepare for the eventual scenario that would trap him!
