The key members and executives of the Yimmel family were scowling visibly at Frank''s words.


    There were those among them who did not fear death, but they were few and far between as most did.Original content from N?velDrama.Org.


    And right now, not only had they lost all their leverage, but Frank was also clearly impervious to their threats.


    That was why the key members and executives of the Yimmel family were really, really afraid-two among them were a direct disy of what would happen if they defied Frank.


    Worst of all, Frank only offered them two options.


    They would all die here with absolute certainty, as Frank had proven himself merciless.


    Or they could ept Frank''s offer to be vassals of the Lane family, a choice that would leave them ashamed.


    After all, they hade confidently, led by their matriarch, to take over the Lane family and Lanecorp.


    And yet, if they returned to Bralog now, they would be exposed if anyone asked, for not only did they fail to conquer the Lane family and Lanecorp, but they were instead trampled upon.


    No one would dare take the fall either, as they would be condemned by their own family.


    But while they were caught in a dilemma, Frank said quietly, "Kill them, Peter."


    His words jolted all the Yimmels to their senses, and they watched Peter Lane and his men approach, weapons in hand.


    They all stumbled backward and eventually pushed Yora to the front.


    "Madam Yimmel..."


    "Do we fight or run? You decide!"


    "Yeah, we came under your orders anyway. It''s time you decide, now that things havee to this!"


    Yora''s expression was solemn as the key members and executives of the Yimmel family dumped the responsibility on her.


    In reality, as soon as Frank demanded that the Yimmels became the Lane family''s vassals, she understood that their time had passed.


    Even if they fought tooth and nail to the very end against Frank''s seemingly endless legion, what would they get in the end?


    They would die anyway, and it was just the start—their deaths would soon be heard all the way in Bralog, and the family would be caught in chaos.


    From the very start, there would be infighting without Yora leading them.


    Then, the other families and groups


    that have been hostile against the Yimmels woulde for them.


    Each would fight to take a vicious bite out of the Yimmels'' wealth and importance-who would miss a golden opportunity like this, after all?


    As such, if the Vimmels decided to take a swing against Frank now, they would be wiped out, and the


    rest of their family would tallet


    them all without inflicting meaningful damage to Frank


    After all, they longer had anyone to protect them.


    Yora turned once again, seeing the looks in the eyes of the key members and executives of the Yimmel family.


    Them giving her the say on this


    matter was not because they were


    indecisive—instead, they just needed a scapegoat who would take the


    me of surrendering to Frank.


    And if she decided to fight, the key members and executives of the Yimmel family would most likely turn against her in an instant. Even as Yora sighed lengthily, she remembered the years of hard work she had put into leading the Yimmels, only to fall to the Lane family.


    Fate was certainly a fickle mistress-they were on the verge of iming full control over the Lane family one second, only to be assimted now. Seeing Peter and his men closed in, Yora chuckled bitterly and bowed her head respectfully at Frank.


    "I... We surrender."
