Chapter 1457 Pierce's Surrender
His expression was aggrieved, even tinged with a hint of helplessness.
It's as if the Evan family were tyrannical bullies who forced women into prostitution.
But only he himself knows the truth.
Seeing his expression, Chenlong chuckled, then shook his head:
“Mr. Pierce, there’s no need for that. I’m not interested in how you choose.”
"However, I want to tell you that my husband has a bad temper. Just for what you did, you're already on his death list!"
"Glug..."
Pierce swallowed hard; his worst fears had come true.
The mysterious Eastern nobleman still refused to let him go.
"Sir, I know I made a mistake, but I hope you can release my wife and children. They have nothing to do with this."
Perhaps resigned to his fate, Pierce did not resist and even voluntarily placed his sidearm on the table.
"What is Mr. Pierce doing?"
Chenlong glanced at the pistol on the table and couldn't help but laugh:
"I think you've misunderstood me. I'm not here to kill you, but to give you a chance."
To show his sincerity, Chenlong pushed the pistol back in front of Pierce.
Pierce was completely stunned by this scene.
The other party wasn't there to kill him?
But why say those things in the first place?
"Sir, or rather, Mr. Lu, what exactly do you want me to do? Do you want me to release Mr. Lu?"
He thought Lu Feng hadn't killed him because he wanted to get out of the police station, and a bitter look appeared on his face:
“That’s impossible, sir. You don’t understand the Evan family. If I don’t do as they ask, my whole family will be dead the next day!”
"If you're thinking of using me to get Mr. Lu out, I advise you to forget about it."
Pierce shook his head repeatedly, as if he had thought of something terrifying.
"Heh, Mr. Pierce, you're so afraid of the Evan family, aren't you afraid we'll kill your whole family?"
Chenlong asked with a slightly teasing tone.
"I am afraid, of course I am afraid, but if I am going to die either way, I would rather die at your hands, because in the hands of the Evan family, death is the lightest punishment."
Pierce responded with a dark expression.
He was afraid of Lu Feng and his group, but he was even more afraid of the Evan family.
"Haha, Mr. Pierce, what if I need you to do one more thing for me, and after you do it, I won't kill you?"
Chenlong laughed loudly, looking intently at him as he spoke.
"what?"
Pierce thought he had misheard.
"What do you want me to do?"
His mood changed rapidly; he thought it was better to live than to die, and he didn't want to die.
“It’s simple. You’ve been working for the Evan family all these years, so you must have a lot of dirt on them. I need that information.”
Chenlong nodded slightly: "Mr. Pierce, please don't say you don't have it. This is your only chance!"
The next sentence completely shut down any possibility of Pierce refusing.
He opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing.
He did want to say he didn't, but judging from Chenlong's attitude, he knew that if he really said he didn't today, not only would he lose his own life, but his wife and children might not be able to either.
"Sir, what do you need this information for?"
Pierce was very nervous. He did have a lot of dirt on the Evan family, but that was all he was keeping in mind to prevent them from turning on him after they had served their purpose.
When asked, Chenlong slowly shook his head, giving the impression that he didn't need to know so much.
"You don't need to worry about that. Just give us the evidence, and I guarantee I'll spare your life."
Upon hearing this, Pierce hesitated.
Just then, Chenlong's voice rang out again:
"Mr. Pierce, you should think this over carefully. This is your only chance. I really like your two children very much, and I really can't bear to hurt them!"
Upon hearing this, Pierce, who had been somewhat hesitant, was immediately thrown into disarray.
"Sir, please wait a moment, let me think about it!"
He said with a pleading expression.
The situation is complicated now; he can't afford to offend either Lu Feng or Klein.
Once he chooses to betray either side, it's equivalent to completely offending that side. If he can't handle it properly, death awaits him.
So in order to save his own life, he had to come up with a perfect solution.
Seeing that he was deep in thought, Chenlong did not urge him, but gave him enough time to think.
The reason he was so patient was because of Lu Feng's instructions.
Originally, his idea was that people like this could be killed after being used, without any need for elaborate procedures.
However, Lu Feng had a different opinion. The other party was the head of the New Golden Mountain Police Department in the United States, a real big shot with real power.
If they can win him over, then he won't be without any foundation in the United States in the future.
Time ticked by, and after about seven or eight minutes, Pierce finally made up his mind.
"Sir, I can give you the information I have, but you must guarantee the safety of my wife and children!"
"no problem!"
Chen Long nodded: "If Mr. Pierce needs it, I can bring them to China, where the threat from the Evan family will no longer be a threat!"
Pierce's expression changed slightly upon hearing this. He wasn't stupid; he was a very capable person himself, in addition to the help of the Evan family, to reach the top position.
He naturally understood what it meant for his wife and children to be in China.
But the Evan family is just too powerful. Even if he moves his wife and children to Europe, it's not 100% safe.
On the entire planet Earth, only China can remain completely unaffected by the United States, the "beacon of democracy."
Therefore, even though he knew that China was also a den of wolves, he had no choice.
"Okay, thank you very much. I will give you the information."
He nodded helplessly, as if resigning himself to his fate.
"Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Pierce. It's getting late, you should get some rest. I won't disturb you any longer."
Having gotten the answer he wanted, Chenlong didn't linger any longer and stood up to leave.
"Let me see you off..."
Standing at the doorway, watching the dragon disappear completely, Pierce looked up at the sky.
He didn't know if his choice was right or wrong.
But for the sake of his wife and children, he had no other choice.

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.
While Lu Feng was being detained, Wen Jingchuan, who had just returned to Taiwan Province, was also having a difficult time...
