Because the incident became too serious, the royal family also stepped in to suppress Lillian's father, Watson Galen, causing his family assets to shrink by half and he himself to become a laughing stock. It was from then on that Daisy began to help her father run some gray industries, which saved the family from bankruptcy.
Lillian would never have thought that after so many years, she would fall into the hands of this woman. She finally felt scared and hurriedly tried to save the situation. She knelt in front of Wilding, looking humble and fawning, begging for the man's forgiveness.
"How is it possible? No, it can't be! Wilding, I was wrong, I was really wrong, please, save me! I don't want to die yet, I didn't mean to, it's all Su Yu's fault! Oh no, it's all Chen Xu, that man Chen Xu misled me!"
Jiang Luoning had never imagined that simply mentioning that banquet would cause such a change in the girl's attitude. She had stopped paying attention to the previous incident after Duke Watson's intervention. If Wilding hadn't mentioned it today, she would have forgotten about it.
Seeing Lillian's miserable expression, Jiang Luoning's annoyance finally dissipated a little. However, when he thought of the harm Su Yu had suffered, he was still furious. He glared at the girl with disdain and sneered, "Chen Xu, I forgot to tell you, Chen Xu is also my Luoshen's man!"
After saying that, he walked forward and kicked the girl who was pulling Wilding's body away.
Lillian felt no pain at all. She understood the truth deeply: if she didn't receive forgiveness today, she would surely die. She crawled forward again, trying to grab the man's trouser leg, begging him humbly.
"No, Wilding, please help me. Ask my mother to ask Mrs. Daisy to save me, okay? And Uncle Chen, he's very powerful. He's from Mantis. You saved me, and I'll make him listen to you from now on, okay?"
Before the two of them could say anything, Fu Linxiao's familiar voice came from the door, and Lillian looked in the direction of the sound.
"That's ridiculous, Lillian. It seems you still haven't grasped the situation. Your Uncle Chen has long considered you a pawn. Now that you're in this situation, not only will he not help you, but he'll actually add insult to injury. Do you believe that?"
Lillian was completely confused by what the man said that suddenly broke in, but she still refused to give up and wanted to argue. However, Wilding had run out of patience by this time and kicked the girl away.
"Brother-in-law, are you done?" Wilding felt inexplicably timid when he saw Fu Linxiao's angry eyes. The three of them had been planning to come together, but the man received a call and claimed to have something to attend to. He asked Wilding to take care of the little girl and left. He didn't elaborate on what it was, but he looked very nervous.
After hearing this, Fu Linxiao ignored her and walked to Jiang Luoning, holding the girl's hands to check if she was intact.
Jiang Luoning was puzzled by the sudden concern and looked at the man with a questioning look: "What happened?"
"Go out and tell me!"
After making sure Jiang Luoning was safe, he took the girl's hands, signaled to Wilding with his eyes, and strode out of the dungeon. The two confused people followed behind him.
Lillian's trembling and frightened cries for mercy continued to echo behind her, but no one paid any attention. The only sound in response to her was the slamming of the iron door.
