Chapter 689
“Don’t go!” Black Fox shouted, but the other party couldn’t hear him.
Ethan smiled faintly. “What a bright and innocent man. Even though he lost his parents, he
doesn’t know that his elder brother is still alive. He gets by every day by looking on the bright side.
“But someone like him is going to leave because of you. What a cruel reality.”
Black Fox’s eyes were red, and he lost his composure for real now.
He barked at Ethan, “Just come at me! If you wanna kill me, just do it! He doesn’t know a thing!”
Ethan grabbed him by the collar, smirking. “And why didn’t you come at me and hurt a kid
instead? Did my son know all of this? Do you finally know that it hurts now that you’re tasting
your own medicine?
“How could you lay a finger on my son? He’s such a young child! And what did you do to Liv in that
heavy rain when she was pregnant?
“What right do you have to beg me for mercy when you can bring yourself to hurt other people’s
families?”
Black Fox licked his dry l*ps. It was indeed his fault, so he didn’t have any excuse for this. “Please,
leave him alone.”
“I can do that, but you gotta show me how sincere you are to the deal. Tell me the truth, and I’ll
leave your brother alone. Otherwise, he won’t be able to see the next sunrise.
“Of course, you can keep silent, which is what you’ve been doing until now. There are no secrets in
this world. It’s a matter of time before I find that person.
“I just need more time. Well, this is the only option you have. Are you going to sacrifice your
brother?”
Black Fox was quiet as he fell into a dilemma.
At that moment, hurried footsteps and a conversation could be heard on the other end of the line.
The man was recounting his sister’s situation.
The young man exclaimed in surprise, “We attended the same school. What’s her name? I might

“Eliza Weaving.”
“It’s her…”
“Do you know her?”
The young man hesitated. “She… She confessed to me two days ago. But I turned her down.”
“No wonder there are pictures of you at every corner of the house. Why? Why did you turn her
down? Is she bad?”
“You’ve misunderstood. It’s not that she’s bad, it’s me. My parents pa*sed away when I was young, and my elder brother went missing many years ago.
“I’m not looking for a partner. I wanna focus on my studies because I wanna go to Zudson
University. It was my brother’s childhood dream.
“I want to look for him in that university. Considering my circumstances, it’ll be irresponsible of
me to accept your sister’s confession.
The young man’s voice was gentle, and it made Black Fox tear up.
Black Fox’s mind was clouded by haziness due to the drug. The past memories flashed through
his mind. He couldn’t control his emotions anymore.
On the other hand, the two men had reached the rooftop as their footsteps paced up.
The young man said innocently, “But I’ll try my best to talk her out of it. I won’t let her choose this
route.”
The door to the rooftop was opened, and Black Fox almost had a heart attack.
He tried his best to rein his emotions in, but his consciousness was leaving him.
“Damn it! Is there really such a drug in this world?” he wondered.
He finally knew why Ethan wouldn’t torture him physically. It wouldn’t come anywhere close to
mental anguish.
The sound of the wind almost drowned out the young man’s voice. “Are you sure this is the right
place? There’s no one up here.”

“She might be at the platform ahead. Cross the fence and ch*ck if she’s there. She’s as stubborn
as a bull. The man’s voice was as luring as a devil’s.
Black Fox was on the edge, but his head was getting dizzy. His vision was getting blurry too.
“No’ Don’t go there!” He slowly flopped onto his knees as his b*dy couldn’t take it anymore.
Ethan looked at him. “You have ten seconds to think whether to sacrifice your brother or not. Ten
It seems Ethan only ever married Olivia to take revenge for what happened to his little sister. While Olivia is plagued by her sickness, he holds her chin and says coldly, “This is what your family owes me.” Now, she has no family and no future.
Her father becomes comatose after a car accident, leaving her with nothing to live for. Thus, she hurls herself from a building. “The life my family owes will now be repaid.” At this, Ethan, who’s usually calm, panics while begging for Olivia to come back as if he’s in a state of frenzy …
