The Man's Decree novel Chapter 701

Chapter 701 Not Backing Down

After coming to his senses, Rayleigh pulled Melanie away from the girl and asked in bewilderment, “Melanie, you have never met your family before. How did you know that she is your older sister?”

With a confused look, Melanie replied, “I—I don’t know. I felt close to her once I saw her and instinctively called her my older sister.”

Then, Rayleigh glanced at the girl and asked sternly, “Young lady, what is your name? Where do you come from? Who are your parents? Did you know before this that you have a twin sister?”

The girl shook her head and said, “My name is Lyanna. I’m not sure where I came from, nor do I know who my parents are. It was my godfather who raised me. I did not know I had a sister either. However, I felt a strong kinship and warmth in my heart once I saw her.”

“Who’s your godfather? Why did you want to capture me?” Jared grabbed the chance to ask Lyanna.

Nevertheless, Lyanna gazed at Jared warily and didn’t respond to his question.

When Jared wanted to grab Lyanna’s arm to continue questioning her, Melanie stopped him and said, “What are you doing?”

“Isn’t it obvious? I need to know why she was hunting me,” Jared responded with a displeased look on his face.

Anyone would be upset if they were assaulted without a reason.

“You can’t lay a finger on her. She’s my sister.” Melanie determinedly warded Jared off from Lyanna.

“I understand that you two look alike, but how can you be sure that she’s your sister? Even if we assume that she’s your sister, why can’t I fight back after she assaulted me?” Jared questioned Melanie.
