Chapter 1280: The Huo Family Is Exterminated (2)
Huo Lin sighed to see him like that!
“Our family has run out of luck. It looks like we won’t end well!”
Huo Tianxiang suddenly crawled over to Huo Lin and burst into tears. “What shall we do? Father, quick, think of a solution! We can’t just wait for death like that. Look at how badly Tianning was beaten. Father, if we continue down this path, all of us will be doomed. Quick, think of a solution. I don’t want to remain in the capital. I want to go back to France.”
Huo Lin laughed coldly and said rather helplessly, “If it were just a beating, like what Tianning received, it wouldn’t be too bad. I’m just afraid that…”
Huo Tianxiang quavered, “What are you afraid of?”
“Afraid that Mo Beihan will finish us off!”
“No!” Huo Tianxiang was in despair. “Father, that’s impossible. There isn’t any serious grudge between us and Mo Beihan. This world has its laws. He can’t do anything to us. He dare not.
“Father, right now, the Huo family has only offended one person, and that’s Mo Beihan. If anything happens to us, Mo Beihan will be the prime suspect. He won’t be able to shake off this suspicion.”
Huo Lin laughed. “No serious grudge? Targeting his woman is not considered to be a serious grudge?
“To men, reputation is of utmost importance. Mo Beihan has always doted on Gu Qingyao. He will never permit a little family like us to entertain any designs on his wife. Even the Gu family will not stand for it, never mind Mo Beihan.
“He only beat Tianning and did not do anything else. But that was because there were too many outsiders involved at the start, and they could not do anything too serious. Now the Huo family is down, and everyone wants to kick us as well. Even if Mo Beihan did anything to us, no one would say anything.”
Huo Tianning was now shaking all over. “No… he won’t. Mo Beihan won’t kill us. Father, we… we… hasn’t he already beaten Tianning? He made Tianning marry Ye Yihong, and the Huo family followed his wishes. Father, he has already punished us, surely he won’t kill us?”
Huo Lin also felt terrible when he saw how terrified his oldest son was.
Although he was not a good man, this was still his own son. At the moment, he felt sorry for this son.
Huo Lin helped Huo Tianxiang up and made him sit down on the sofa.
“Go! Hurry up and leave, and go as far as you can. I will find a way to help you to escape. Your brothers are still overseas but don’t look them up for now. Go into hiding. Do you understand?”
Huo Tianxiang was taken aback. “Father…”
Huo Lin smiled. He even looked somewhat kindly. “In the past, we met Sir’s subordinate in Europe, and we’ve seen how Sir works. I know these people are not to be trifled with.
“The terrible fate that befell Huo Financial Group increased my awareness of how hard it is to oppose Mo Beihan. The power this man wields overseas is truly terrifying. Otherwise, he would not be able to oppose so many financial groups.
“Son! You’re still young. You should leave! I’ll stay here and buy you some time. But whether you will be able to preserve your life or not will depend on your luck!”
Huo Tianxiang felt his mind go blank. He felt that what his father had said was too terrifying!
“Fa-Father, you… are you going to…”
Huo Lin said gently, “If Mo Beihan really makes a move, I will remain here to attract his attention. I’m the master of the Huo family. He should target me first. Hurry and run. I will help s.h.i.+eld you for a while.”
