“Hello, Dad...” Wynter uttered.
A voice came from the other end of the line. “I saw the news. Don't resist. Your brothers are at a crucial stage now, so we can't afford to offend the Freedman clan!”
Wynter felt her heart sink after hearing that, and tears formed in her eyes.
Her father added, “Wynter, you're not young anymore. Don't fight back today. Once things are over, I'll head over to the Freedman Clan’s headquarters to settle the matter. The
Lowe family still needs the Freedman clan's assistance!”
The call ended abruptly.
A chill filled Wynter's heart, and she could no longer hold back her tears.
Do they not care about my happiness in the slightest? Will Sebastian even take me as his wife? His fiancee is at Jadeborough, so what am I to him?
“Go on, continue calling whoever you need.” Sebastian wasn't anxious as he pinned his eyes on Wynter from top to bottom. He enjoyed the sight of Wynter being desperate as it brought him the joy of having power.
Surprisingly, Wynter did not give up and proceeded to phone her elder brother, who was the one who adored her the most. “Brother, I..."
A long sigh came from the other end of the line. “Wynter, I'm sure you understand the current situation. We're entering the core market of Tudela state soon. Besides, can the Lowe family stand a chance against the Freedman clan?”
Wynter choked with sobs. “Don't we have the slightest chance to fight back? Are you all going to let him defile me?” “No, not at all,” a deep voice answered.
“That's just how it is.”
The call was abruptly cut off.
Wynter refused to give in. After pondering for some time, she ended up calling her grandfather. The pillar of the Lowe family!
Old Mr. Lowe was in Jadeborough. Before retiring, he was an influential person, with disciples all over the world.
“Grandpa, save me,” Wynter pleaded.
