Chapter: 2704

In Charlie Wade’s words, every sentence struck Su Shoudao deeply. He imagined himself standing on a throne, holding the heads of Su Zhifei, Su Zhiyu, and Su Ruoli, and suddenly, he couldn’t hold back his emotions any longer.

Tears streamed down his face as he cried out, “No! That’s not true! I never wanted to trade their lives for power or riches. I was forced into this situation! I had no choice!”

His voice grew more intense as he continued, “This is all my father’s doing! Every time he made a decision, even when he gave orders, he never told me. It hurts so much, but I felt powerless!”

Charlie Wade looked at him coldly and asked, “Do you really have no idea, or are you just pretending not to see?”

Overcome with grief, Su Shoudao fell to his knees and sobbed, “When Li was captured, the Japanese wanted her dead. I begged my father to let me save Ruoli. He agreed, and even let Ruoli’s mother go to Japan to give her the good news. But… I didn’t know this was all part of my father’s plan! By the time I found out, Ruoli was already missing…”

He tore at his hair in despair, saying, “And then there’s Haiqing and Zhiyu. I know Haiqing has always loved your father; she told me that when we got married. I never expected that after all these years and having two kids, she could still not forget him!”

“I admit, I hated her for it. I felt like she never saw me, but I never wanted to hurt her. My father thought she was a disgrace to the Su family, and he plotted everything…”

“But how was I supposed to know that Zhiyu was in the same car as her?”

“Du Haiqing…”

“I really don’t care that she’s gone. I loved her so much, but she hurt me deeply. I’m exhausted. Yet, knowing that Fish is my flesh and blood, my beloved daughter, it’s hard not to feel pain for her. But I can’t save everything…”

Seeing the turmoil in Su Shoudao’s eyes, Charlie Wade asked coldly, “If you had a chance to save both your daughters, what would you be willing to give up?”

Without hesitation, Su Shoudao replied, “I would pay any price! Even if it means I have to die right now, as long as they are safe, I will do it!”

Charlie nodded, “This is what you said. Remember it, and don’t regret it.”

Su Shoudao thought Charlie was mocking him and shouted angrily, “What do you mean?! Do you really believe I’m a heartless monster? That I would trade my daughters’ lives for fame and wealth?!”

He continued, “I only bowed to my father because it was a done deal. I had no choice! I could only try to minimize the losses. With both daughters gone, I must ensure I secure my position as the heir of the Su family!”

“It’s like a business deal; I’ve invested too much to back down now!”

Charlie sneered, “Calm down. I’m not mocking you; I just want you to remember what you said.”

Then, Charlie pulled out his phone from his jacket pocket and clicked to play a video he had recorded.

He shook the phone at Su Shoudao and said, “Everything you just said is recorded here.”

Su Shoudao looked confused.

“You… what are you going to do?” he asked, his voice shaky. “Aren’t you going to publish this video?!”

Charlie Wade replied, “What? Are you worried that the old dog Su Chengfeng will turn against you after seeing it?”

Su Shoudao swallowed hard and said, “You’ve got my second brother under your control. If you get rid of me, what do you gain?”
