Chapter 158 is a bargaining chip and a stepping stone



"I was just one door away, watching him kneeling on the ground begging desperately, his forehead bruised, but my father and brother were indifferent and even had him beaten away."

"I begged my father and brothers, but they said there was nothing they could do. I even brought my own gold and silver jewelry to give to him to help him through this difficult time, but they stopped me."
