Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 665 - 657: A Son of the Zhan Family Comes of Age (Part 3)

No, she must make him leave quickly, lest Zhan Yunxiao hurt him.

However, when she opened Xia Tian’s room door, there was indeed someone inside. But it wasn’t Xia Tian, it was her brother Mu Chen.

Mu Chen was tied to a chair, with tape over his mouth.

The noise earlier was caused by him shaking the chair forcefully.

"Brother, why are you here?"

Xia Luo rushed over, untaping his mouth, intending to free him.

But Zhan Yunxiao had already come in with his bodyguards.

Two female bodyguards stepped forward and pulled Xia Luo away.

Xia Luo struggled hard but couldn’t break free from the female bodyguards’ grip.

"Zhan Yunxiao, let her go," Mu Chen shouted angrily.

Mu Chen was the same age as Zhan Yunxiao and Xia Luo, but he looked slightly more mature than the two of them.

He and Xia Luo were twins, but they didn’t look alike at all.

Perhaps it was because he had spent years thinking about how to take revenge on the Zhan Family, playing tricks, that there was an indescribable sinister and treacherous aura about him.

But at this moment, he seemed genuinely concerned about Xia Luo, angrily demanding Zhan Yunxiao.

However, Zhan Yunxiao wasn’t intimidated, coldly saying, "What leverage do you have to demand anything from me now? Both of you siblings are in my hands; your lives are mine to decide."

"Zhan Yunxiao, this is kidnapping," Xia Luo raged.

Zhan Yunxiao snorted, pointing at Mu Chen and telling Xia Luo, "Ask him, am I kidnapping him? Did I kidnap him, or did he willingly come to be tied up?"

Xia Luo looked at Mu Chen in disbelief.

How could her brother be willing to let Zhan Yunxiao tie him up?

"Zhan Yunxiao, I’ve done what you asked, don’t go back on your word," Mu Chen said with a humiliated expression, gritting his teeth to remind Zhan Yunxiao.

Zhan Yunxiao looked smugly at Xia Luo, raising his eyebrows at her.

As if saying, now do you believe it? He himself let me tie him up!

"Brother, what exactly happened?" Xia Luo asked choking through tears.

Mu Chen lowered his head, seemingly unable to speak.

Zhan Yunxiao said, "I’ll give you siblings some time to talk it over. Mu Chen, you’d better tell her the whole truth; you know, I have the leverage in my hands. If I send out those pieces of evidence, you know what you will face."

"I hear you, I will tell Luoluo the whole truth, but you mustn’t break your vow," Mu Chen reminded him once again.

Zhan Yunxiao snorted coldly and left with the two female bodyguards.

Once Xia Luo was released, she immediately rushed to Mu Chen’s side and untied the ropes binding him.

But after untying him, she found Mu Chen was still injured and handcuffed.

Without the key, it was impossible to open them.

"Brother, what exactly happened? Why did you end up in Zhan Yunxiao’s hands?" Xia Luo asked painfully, sitting on the ground.

Mu Chen gritted his teeth and angrily said, "It’s all because of that damn old man. Who would’ve thought he’d still have something up his sleeve before he died, an illegitimate child no less. Even more unexpected was that the will ended up in Zhan Yunxiao’s hands, and now he threatens me with it. If I don’t follow his orders, he’ll publicize it. If they find out about the old man’s biological son, I will lose everything. Mother’s sacrifices will all be in vain."

"Brother, have you always known that Mother was lying to me? Have you actually been lying to me too?" Xia Luo asked.

Mu Chen’s expression stiffened but quickly responded in a low voice, "I had no choice. I couldn’t disobey Mother. This was all part of her plan; what was I supposed to do?"

"I trusted you so much. After she died, I considered you my only family. I gave so much for you; how could you treat me like this?" Xia Luo stood up in anger and shouted.

Mu Chen shouted back, "So what do you want me to do? Do you think I want this? I’m more miserable than you. This was Mother’s dying wish, and I couldn’t disobey her."

"You can disobey her. She’s already dead. Why are we still under her control?"

"To you, she may be dead, but Xiaxia, don’t you know? To me, she lives on forever, in my heart, by my side, in every corner of my life. Don’t think you’re so wronged. Remember when she took us both away? She either beat or scolded us relentlessly, disgracefully abusing us. Later, she let one of us come back as an undercover. Both of us wanted to come back. You, you told her you were friends with Zhan Yunxiao. You knew Zhan Yunxiao, and you convinced her that Zhan Hanjue and Ye Ningwan would accept you. Because you were a girl, it was easier not to be suspected, so she let you come back. You lived happily by Zhan Hanjue and Ye Ningwan’s side for several years, but do you know what I went through? How painful those years were for me? You stole my chance to come back and wouldn’t reveal any information to her. You really wanted to be a child of the Zhan Family. She took all her resentment out on me. You made my life even harder. Even though I knew I was deceiving you, this is your debt to me."
