The Man's Decree novel Chapter 452

Chapter 452 Forcing His Hands

Franco was even more scared when he saw how no one was budging. “Oy, Tristan. Save me! If you do, the Coopers will bow down to the Baileys.”

He was begging Tristan at the time because his head was already sinking into the ground. If Jared pushed any more, Franco’s head would surely break.

Tristan’s expression shifted a little, but he didn’t do or say anything.

“Well, looks like no one will save you. I’ll just send you off to hell then,” replied Jared nonchalantly.

“No, no!” shouted Franco. He suddenly thought of Lizbeth. “Lizbeth, Lizbeth! Save me. Please save me. We used to be a couple, and we loved each other. Please save me in honor of that love. I have loved you this entire time. I only canceled our engagement because my family forced my hand. That is why I am engaged to another woman now. Please, save me…”

Lizbeth’s entire body trembled. Her eyes were filled with tears because she truly loved him all those years ago. At the time, she thought he was her one true love and assumed he was her knight in shining armor. She never thought he’d turn out to be the man who hurt her the most?

Jared got even angrier when he heard Franco talking about that. The former already felt bad for what happened to Lizbeth, and mentioning the incident only further infuriated him.

“You worthless jerk. Die!” growled Jared.

“Wait!” shouted Lizbeth all of a sudden.

Jared turned to her and stared strangely.

She walked over and took one look at Franco in exasperation. After that, she turned to Jared and requested, “Will you spare his life?”

“But, Lizbeth, isn’t he the jerk who hurt you?”

Jared didn’t understand why she was helping Franco at all.

“Please spare his life. I loved him in the past, and this is my way of freeing myself. Now that I have saved his life, any debt and connection between us will be cleared.”
