Tracey rushed home. When she just walked into the courtyard, he saw Carmen kneeling on the ground. Ben was standing on the side, looked quite helpless.
"Was she still dreaming of coming back?" Tracey thought.
"Dad, why is she here again?" Tracey walked toward them. If Ben showed weakness and welcome Carmen back, Tracey would never help Ben and scheme to drive her away again.
"Tracey, what can I do? She wants me to save Leo." Ben said.
"Leo?" Tracey suddenly remembered that after Carmen and Renee provoking Tina, for punishing them, she told Ruth to make a fuss between Carmen and Adela.
Ruth wanted Adela personally to kick Carmen' s ass. Unexpectedly, Leo got irritated and hurt Adela with a knife.
Tracey was lucky to avoid Leo's stab while Adela was unfortunate and hospitalized.
Tracey told Adam to leave this matter behind, however, things seemed to get more
complicated, and Carmen went back!
"Tracey, I know that I am sorry for you, but we have been punished.
Now no one could threaten you anymore in the Xia family. We even left without any penny. But Leo is in big trouble now, for that sake of your brother, can you save him?" Carmen said in a begging tone.
She looked awful, her hair was messy, and her face was swollen in red. Perhaps she had tried asking Adela for mercy, but she was turned down. Now the Xia family was her last hope.
"Carmen, first, I have to make it clear, you didn' t leave the Xia family voluntarily but was driven out due to your betrayal to my father.
Second, Leo was just my so-called brother. If he had ever treated me well in the past, I would definitely help him out.
But I remember clearly that he wanted to stab me not long ago at my grandpa's birthday party, I have let him go once. Otherwise, do you really think he could be released so soon?
Carmen, I know that your days are difficult. It's not me who caused you trouble, but yourself.
It's a natural rule to get punished after making sins. Leo is an adult, and he should be responsible for his behavior. I won't interfere in this matter."
Seeing Carmen was so poor, Tracey said and eased her cold tone.
"But this punishment is too much, and it would ruin Leo’s future! I beg you, Tracey, as long as you can save him, I will disappear from your eyes forever, I promise!" Carmen said in anxiety while pulling Tracey's pants.
"Carmen, we are even, I don’t hate you now, and I won’t take more revenge on you. Leo asked for this result as he always lost control in the same thing. Nobody could save him. Dad, let’s go inside."
Tracey took Ben into the house. Human beings were hard to change the personality. Leo was obviously unaware of his dangerous behavior, and he may stab others next time when he got stimulated again. Therefore, he should take a lesson rather than being saved.
"Ben, I beg you to save Leo for the last time. If you don’t help him, I won’t get up." Carmen shouted behind them.
"Go ahead, you can just kneel here." Tracey shut the door closed. Carmen was smart as she knew that men would be easily pitiful on women, maybe Ben would soften his heart when seeing her kneeling outside.
