In the Jiang Family's main hall, a group of people sat upright, maintaining a serious composure.
"I can save him, but he has to break off his engagement with Jiang Caiwei."
When Jiang Jiubai's finger pointed directly at her, Jiang Caiwei's face immediately turned green.
"Jiang Jiubai," Jiang Caiwei, beside herself with rage, exclaimed, "what nonsense are you talking?!"
"I haven't finished speaking." Jiang Jiubai gave her a sidelong glance, then slowly uttered a few more words, "Break off the engagement with Jiang Caiwei, and then, marry me!"
The final two words hit the floor with emphasis, causing a sudden hush throughout the hall.
The servants in the hall who were attending from left and right, couldn't help but look at the woman seated centrally with a trace of disdain—
Her brother-in-law was seriously ill, and the only chance for a turnaround rested with Jiang Jiubai, who, being Jiang Caiwei's half-sister, was making such a demand.
That was downright extortion.
