章節 421: Love and Determination

"If you keep this up, I will disown you and it will be as if we never had a daughter."

As Cai Li's parents made their final ultimatum, the weight of their words settled heavily in the room, suffocating the air around them.

Chaoxiang stood beside Cai Li, his heart sinking at the harshness of her parents' decree. The anguish in Cai Li's tear-filled eyes tore at his soul, and he longed to ease her pain, to shield her from the emotional turmoil that engulfed them.

Cai Li's mother's voice was laced with finality as she reiterated their stance.

"You have chosen your path, Cai Li. If you choose to continue down this road, you will no longer be welcome in this house. You will be disowned, and it will be as if we never had a daughter," she declared, her tone unwavering despite the tears welling in Cai Li's eyes.

Chaoxiang's grip tightened around Cai Li's hand, his heart aching at the anguish and sorrow etched on her face.
