Chapter 1204

Benjamin waved his hand and snarled, “Okay, I give up. I’ll grant your wish.”

Amber opened her watery eyes. Smiling, she said, ’Dad, I knew you weren’t that cruel…”

“Don’t get cocky. I’ll let them go… on one condition.” Benjamin stared at Liam fiercely, then

sneered, “My daughter’s willing to give up her life for you. It’s obvious that she loves you

very much, so I want you to promise to stay and marry her. If not, all of you can’t leave the

fort.”

Hearing that, Amber’s face turned red and she protested, “Dad, you… Don’t be like this. A

marriage will only be happy if both parties love each other. You can’t force people to marry

like this!”

Benjamin ignored Amber and stared at Liam intently. “What do you think? Are you willing to

marry my daughter?”

“I…” Frowning deeply, Liam looked conflicted and hesitant. His heart belonged to someone

else, so naturally, he was unwilling to marry a woman he did not love. However, he was also

afraid that he, Renee, and Joanne would end up miserably if he did not do so.

“No!” Renee held Joanne up as she walked out of the room. She looked at Benjamin

angrily. “Do you think they’ll be happy in a forced marriage? Is this really necessary?”

“They won’t be happy, but it will satisfy my daughter. Thus, it’s necessary.” Benjamin looked

at Liam and looked pleased. “Let’s forget about what happened. I like this kid, and I’ll be

happy if he can be my son-in-law even if he can’t be my son. A wife in exchange for two

lives—it’s a good bargain. If you’re still unwilling, don’t blame me for being inconsiderate.”novelbin

Liam glanced at Joanne, whose lips had turned pale. He then urged Renee, “Boss, don’t

oppose him. Hurry up and leave with Joanne. It’ll be too late if you don’t rush her to a

hospital for immediate treatment. We’ll lose our choices by then.”

“No, I can’t leave you here alone. We must leave or die together!”

“There’s no need for such unnecessary loyalty. I just need to stay and be his son-in-law,

which isn’t a bad option. What’s more, Amber is a charming young woman; it’s not a loss for

me if I marry her. If you don’t go, Benjamin may regain his wits and go back on his word,”

Liam said softly, trying to urge Renee to leave.

“But you don’t love this lady. You…”

“Well, I can’t even marry the one I love. What if I fall for her one day? It may be a blessing in

disguise for me then.”

“You…” For a moment, Renee did not know how to argue. Liam was giving up his future and

love life, but he sounded like he had won the lottery. Liam always pretended to be optimistic

so she didn’t worry.

He would then suffer the sadness and grief alone.

Renee felt that she had wronged Liam deeply. He was always the one sacrificing for her,

and she just sat back and enjoyed it.

“Don’t hesitate, there’s no time. Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. My future wife won’t let anything

happen to me either…”

Liam’s words brought a blush to Amber’s cheeks. She braced herself and said to Renee,

“Miss, [you should leave with Joanne. I promise that I’ll protect Liam well.” “Well… Okay.”

Renee scowled unhappily. She was left with no options.

Liam, hold on. I’ll come back and save you.”
