The Man's Decree

Chapter 452 Forcing His Hands

Franco was even more scared when he saw how no one was budging. “Oy, Tristan. Save me! If you do, the Coopers will bow down to the Baileys.”

He was begging Tristan at the time because his head was already sinking into the ground. If Jared pushed any more, Franco’s head would surely break.

Tristan’s expression shifted a little, but he didn’t do or say anything.

“Well, looks like no one will save you. I’ll just send you off to hell then,” replied Jared nonchalantly.

“No, no!” shouted Franco. He suddenly thought of Lizbeth. “Lizbeth, Lizbeth! Save me. Please save me. We used to be a couple, and we loved each other. Please save me in honor of that love. I have loved you this entire time. I only canceled our engagement because my family forced my hand. That is why I am engaged to another woman now. Please, save me…”

Lizbeth’s entire body trembled. Her eyes were filled with tears because she truly loved him all those years ago. At the time, she thought he was her one true love and assumed he was her knight in shining armor. She never thought he’d turn out to be the man who hurt her the most?

Jared got even angrier when he heard Franco talking about that. The former already felt bad for what happened to Lizbeth, and mentioning the incident only further infuriated him.
