The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 1871

Tim withheld his rage as he growled through his teeth, "W-We're not peasants!"

"Not peasants?!"

Cara snorted, standing akimbo. "Then what are you?! We fed you and raised you! Everything you ever had came from the Quill family, and you're now turning against us?! Bunch of ingrates!"

"Shut up!" Eric bellowed as he ran forward, pushing Cara away while bellowing at the Quills, "Listen here—our fathers were fallen comrades of Governor Quill! He took us in, so we don't owe any of you anything!

"You've disrespected us for so long, even using our families as hostages, and I say it's enough! We will no longer serve you from now on, so get your own guards!"

"What?!"

Cara was the first to fly into rage at the soldiers' insubordination.

Grabbing Eric by the wrist, she screamed, "You peasants! You don't get to have a say! Don't forget that we still have your families!"

"Fuck off!"

Eric shook his wrist violently, knocking Cara on the floor before whipping out his gun and pointing it at her, "Another word, and I'll shoot you! Try me!"

Eric's furious glare left Cara petrified on the ground, all the curses she had in mind suddenly stuck.

She had certainly come to realize that the soldiers were going all out now, and she would really be killed if she kept being stupid.

"Listen now, everyone!"

Tim strode out, barking coldly, "We were going to pin our hopes on Mr. Lawrence, but since he does not want to intervene, we have no choice but to take this into our own hands! Let our families go, and we can go our separate ways!"
