The boss has no descendants, but he encounters four smaller versions of himself

Ai Rui was unmoved: "Mom! Why are you doing this? From childhood to adulthood, when have you ever asked me what I want?"

He recalled the countless days and nights he spent locked in the villa, guarded by bodyguards, the business dinners he was forced to attend, the finance he was forced to study, and the birthdays he spent alone. Every memory was like a walking corpse.

He never allows any friends to be around him. If anyone gets close to him, they will disappear from this world the next day.

Thinking of this, his fingers trembled: "I am a human, not your puppet!"

"Puppet?" Liz staggered and held onto the chair, her scarlet nails scraping harshly. "Who am I doing all this for? So that you can inherit the Bronn family, so that you can become the best and have everything you want!"

"Enough!" Eric interrupted her angrily, "These are all you want. Do you know how others see me? They say I have a cruel mother who murdered her husband and killed innocent people to seize power. And I am labeled the son of the devil. Being a member of the Bron family and your son has never been a glorious thing. I feel ashamed and disgusted because I have the same blood as you. I even despise myself..."

Liz's heart suddenly ached.

A thousand arrows piercing my heart is no match for my own son calling me disgusting...

"Eri, you misunderstood. I didn't kill your father."

"Does it matter whether you kill someone yourself or order someone else to do it?"

After he finished speaking, he clearly saw Liz's face stiffen for a moment.

He laughed at himself, "My guess was right. You didn't kill your father yourself, but you ordered someone else to do it. He died because of you, but you don't feel the slightest bit of guilt. You continue to support your gigolo and live a lewd and shameless life!"

Liz's fingers clenched involuntarily.

Looking at her expression, Eric had already lost all hope. He just wanted to leave this disgusting place and this disgusting people as soon as possible.

But there are people all around, Liz won't let him go, he has to take a gamble.

So, he took out the Swiss Army knife hidden in his pocket, put the blade to his neck, and said in a desperate voice, "If you don't let me go, I will die in front of you now!"

Liz's pupils suddenly shrank. Looking at her son's determined eyes, she suddenly remembered the baby curled up in the delivery room many years ago, whose delicate little face showed her the first smile.

And now, the child she protected with her life is trying to escape from her by dying.

"Don't..." Her voice broke into a hoarse breath, but as soon as she got closer, the knife in Eric's hand went deeper.

The saber pierced the skin and blood flowed.

Lisden didn't dare to move.

The air in the room seemed to be frozen, with only the crackling sound of burning torches.

"Why aren't you talking? Do you think I don't dare?" Eric didn't hear a reply, and the blade cut through his skin again, oozing out more blood.

"Put it down!" Liz suddenly screamed, her voice shrill.

She stumbled forward, but stopped half a meter away from her son, her hands trembling in the air. "Okay, I'll let go...Isn't it okay if I let go?"

Her voice suddenly became hoarse, as if it had been rubbed with sandpaper. "But remember this, I will not forget what happened today. You are not allowed to die without my permission."

Hearing this, Ai Rui turned around and walked out without hesitation.

The bodyguards at the side wanted to step forward to stop him, but were stopped by Liz: "Let him go! Get out of the way!"

Everyone could only watch Eric leave and Liz collapse in her chair.

After coming out, Ai Rui pulled Gu Xuan and turned around and ran.

Gu Xuan was still in a daze, completely unaware of what was happening. She let Ai Rui drag her along and run until they had run far away and the house behind them had completely disappeared from her sight. Only then did she realize that there was no gunshot or sound of pursuit as she had expected.

The two ran farther and farther, and finally stopped in a deserted place.

Gu Xuan bent down and stopped, breathing a sigh of relief: "Great, we escaped, and those people didn't catch up..."

"But Eric, how did you escape? Or...did you convince Liz to let you go..."

When she straightened up, she found that Eric was motionless, and the only response she got was dead silence.

"Ari?" Gu Xuan looked up in confusion, but froze in place the moment she saw him clearly.

Half of Eric's body was covered in blood, and blood was flowing out from the wound on his neck, soaking his white shirt.

There was cold sweat on his eyelashes, his lips were bloodless, and he was staggering.

Why did he bleed so much?

Gu Xuan was terrified: "Ari, what's wrong with you? Why are you bleeding so much?"

Her trembling hand reached out for his neck, but when her fingertips touched the sticky, warm blood, she suddenly retracted her hand.

The wound was too deep. The violent movement of running just now caused the wound to tear continuously, and the bleeding could not be stopped.

Ai Rui tried hard to focus on the blurry figure in front of him, and Gu Xuan's anxious voice seemed to be heard through a layer of frosted glass.

He wanted to say "Don't be afraid", but a sweet and fishy taste of rust rose in his throat.

Darkness began to spread from the edge of his vision. Before he completely lost consciousness, he used his last bit of strength to raise his hand, but he fell heavily into Gu Xuan's arms.

"Ari! Ai Rui!" Gu Xuan was knocked to the ground, with Ai Rui's tall and heavy body pressing on her.

She slapped his face in panic, tears falling on him, "Wake up! Don't scare me..."

However, the person in his arms showed no reaction. His pale face was now bluish-gray, and his pulse was so weak that it was almost imperceptible.

The chirping of insects around suddenly became harsh.

Gu Xuan was shocked to realize that she was in the wilderness and she didn’t bring her cell phone with her. What should she do?

She tried her best to lift Eric up, but she was too weak. She was also exhausted after running for so long. It was simply a fantasy to want to carry him, who was 1.9 meters tall, out of the forest.

If he can't get out, Eric will bleed to death...

"Ari, wake up. Although I hate your mother, I don't want you to die..."

But Eric couldn't hear her at all.

Gu Xuan was completely desperate.

She hugged the gradually cooling body in her arms and cried helplessly.

The boy who was always cynical and loved to laugh was now lying in her arms like a fragile fallen leaf, and she was powerless to do anything.

On the other side, Liz was still sitting in her chair, angry because of Eric's departure.

Suddenly she heard footsteps and thought that Ai Rui had figured it out and was coming back, so she looked up excitedly.

But the next second, his eyes suddenly sank when he saw the figure in front of him.
