"Carmel, what are you doing?"
Frank was in a bundle of nerves upon seeing his daughter like this.
"Are you crazy? Put down these bombs!"
It was not easy for Frank to reunite with his daughter. Although he always felt that there was a gap and misunderstanding between them, he hoped that his daughter could live safely.
Who didn't want their children to live well?
The Liu family had committed heavy sins. He had already told his subordinate to send Carmel away no matter what the result was.
More than 20 years ago, he lost his daughter and he was lonely for years. Now, he sent his daughter away again. To be honest, Frank was reluctant to part with her, but he knew that this was for his daughter's future.
But no matter what, he didn't want Rachel to die.
Meanwhile, Isaias and Rachel looked very unhappy.
They were boiling with anger despite being delighted with Carmel presence back then.
"You encouraged your father to rebel, didn't you?"
How could Isaias not understand Frank's feeling of guilt towards Carmel?
But how could she use her father's guilt to plot against the Liu family?
She was also a descendant of the Liu family, wasn't she?
This time, Carmel did not hesitate or remain silent. Instead, she said in a low voice, "Yes! Who does the Liu family think they are? With such a small number of people, do they think they can shake up the country's interests just because of the arms trade? They think they're able to take over the country? That's illusional!"
"Carmel Liu!"
Rachel's eyes were red with anger.
"You haven't been in the Liu family for so many years. I understand if you're oblivious towards the effort our family has paid for this belief. Still, you are a part of the Liu family. How can you treat your family members like this?"
"It's true that I'm part of you guys, which is also what makes me feel sick! But you lost me. The country gave me life, taught me from right to wrong, and taught me what faith is. Do you think that I like the name 'Carmel'? Before I accepted this task, I didn't know who Carmel was at all! My name is Sloane! I am Sloane Chapman! I am proud of it, my military status and my true identity, and even my faith! Now you have done so many things in front of me, but now you still want to escape? You can't escape!"
Carmel's eyes were cold and heartless, just like the members of Liu Family.
Upon hearing this, Isaias was so angry that he picked up a glass of water and threw it at Carmel's head.
"Bastard!"
Frank quickly pulled Carmel and protected her behind him.
"Dad, Carmel is right. It's our family's fault all these years!"
"Shut up!"
Isaias lashed out furiously.
Rachel was also burning with anger.
"Brother, don't you know how much I have paid for grandpa's ancestral guidance? Now you're disagreeing with it? If I am really wrong, what will happen to my marriage and children? How do I count all the things that I, Rachel, have done for these years? Our Liu family is right! We can't be wrong!"
At this time, Rachel was like a crazy person.
How could she be wrong?
If that was the case, what about her deceased son?
What about her lost marriage and feelings?
Who was willing to be a heartless person?
Did she want to?
No!
She didn't want to!
