"They all depend on our business for a living, Renee," Jacques spoke with trembling lips. "You're not stupid, are you? You must have heard of that?"
The blonde-haired woman lowered her head, unable to answer.
"So, for this time, obey my words." The father continued. "Only the Kozlovs can help us. The other families are too hostile towards us."
"No." Daniil warded off the hands of his siblings who were going to help him up. "I don't want this. You guys use my stupidity and love for Renee to your advantage. You know how disgusting that is, right?"
Jacques hastily responded, "Please, listen to me..."
However, Daniil hurriedly left the place.
"Sorry, but it would be best if you all got out of here soon." Igor Kozlov added in a cold tone. "I can understand why you guys want to marry off your daughters into our families, but this mess is going too far, sir."
