Upon hearing Jason Lee's words, Fraser Lee was first stunned, then his body began to tremble violently! Was his own father going to kill him to atone for Chris? Sobbing, he shouted, "Dad, I don't want to die! You only have me as your son! I am the future heir of the Lee family!"
"If I die, who will take care of you in your old age? If I die, who will inherit the Lee family in the future..."
"Shut up!"
Before Fraser Lee could finish, Jason Lee glared fiercely at him and scolded, "If this crisis isn't resolved, not just you, even I, and the entire Lee family, no one will survive!"
At these words, Fraser Lee's face turned pale, his spirit drained. He hung his head, unable to speak, for he knew Jason Lee was right. If Chris were to get angry, the entire Lee family might end up in a bloodbath.
"Humph!" Jason Lee coldly snorted, "Fraser Lee, remember this: the reason the Lee family has come to this is all because of you! Because of you, we have offended someone we shouldn't have! Whether the Lee family can survive is still uncertain..."
Saying this, Jason Lee approached Fraser Lee, reaching out to pat his shoulder. "To ensure the survival of the Lee family, not only you, even I should be willing to make sacrifices when the time comes. Do you understand?"
Fraser Lee looked up and saw a hint of complexity in Jason Lee's eyes. Suddenly, Fraser felt a twinge of fear, but he dared not say another word, only nodding gently.
The next day, at the Star Island branch of Chester Group, early arriving employees were astonished to find something peculiar. At the company entrance, the head of the Lee family, Jason Lee, was kneeling, and his son Fraser Lee, with a broken leg, had been simple bandaged and supported with a brace, was also kneeling on the ground.
"Mr. Shelby, my son has offended you. I hope you can forgive my Lee family!" Jason Lee shouted, lifting his head.
Those around were utterly dumbfounded. What on earth was happening? Jason Lee was the esteemed head of the Lee family, the top family on Star Island, and yet here he was, kneeling at the entrance of Chester Group, pleading for Chris's forgiveness!
"Please, Mr. Shelby, forgive my Lee family!"
Jason Lee knelt there, paying no heed to the onlookers.
Slap! While speaking, Jason Lee suddenly slapped Fraser Lee's face hard. Instantly, Fraser Lee's cheek swelled up. He gritted his teeth, not daring to make a sound. Everyone was shocked by the scene. The dignified Lee family father and son were personally begging for mercy? And it seemed they had offended Chester Group. But wasn't Chester Group a newly established company on Star Island? Why would the father and son of the top family, Lee family, ask for mercy from Chester Group?
Most of the Lee family cultivators had already been eliminated by him.
At this moment, the Lee family was like a floating duckweed, rootless. Even if he didn't deal with them, the long-exploited Amerosia and foreign businessmen would rise upand take action. At that time, a mere push from the Lee family would cause it to collapse, and the enraged people would tear them apart.
With this in mind, Chris waved his hand, "Let them come up! Kneeling at the company's entrance is disgraceful. If others see it, it will reflect poorly on our company."
"Yes, sir," Leif Tate nodded and then left the office.
Meanwhile, at the company's entrance, Jason Lee remained kneeling, while Fraser Lee, using crutches, struggled to stand. His face was covered in blood, and his face had already been swollen by Jason Lee's blows. However, even so, Fraser Lee bit his lip, not daring to say a word.
Leif Tate led the two men to Chris's office. "Head of the Lee family, Mr. Shelby, here are Jason Lee and Fraser Lee!"
Jason Lee stood before Chris, a look of deference on his face. This was Jason Lee's first meeting with Chris. He had never expected that the person who had destroyed the Jefferson family, killed Ron Jefferson, and exterminated over a hundred grandmasters of the Lee family, would be so young.
