Chapter 620: The Feeling of Being in Control

Ye Shaoxian's pitiful state in the photo left Lu's family in shock. They wondered who would dare attack a member of the Ye family.

Lu Qi, retrieving her phone, gestured toward the contracts. "Sign these, and I might let you go—on the condition you disappear from my life. Consider it my final repayment for your 'parenting.'"

She was ready to sever ties and leave the past behind.

Her stepmother protested, "How can you be so heartless? Where will we go?"

"Where you go isn't my problem. Not signing?" Lu Qi's voice, though hoarse, was firm. "Xu Yi, assist them."

Xu Yi promptly ensured the contracts were signed, and the trio was escorted out amid their pleas.

"Lu Qi, please! We were wrong," her stepmother begged.

"I'll change, I promise!" her stepsister chimed in.

Lu Qi, unmoved, watched them leave. Showing sympathy now would only encourage their manipulation.
