Chapter 183 The Drawbridge Was Blown Up

• Ryan didn't push them or reprimand them because they hadn't done anything wrong.
• Echo's current position as the sixth leader in the Dark family meant that even her own safety couldn't be guaranteed. Who could they blame for that? They could help, but they certainly wouldn't protect her.
• However, Ryan's deeper meaning was something they understood. In the Dark family, there was no forced submission or loyalty—such loyalty was empty, like a shell without substance. Ryan knew this, and so did they. But Ryan's decision to not punish or scold them was even more effective than if he had. Echo was the Boss's favorite, and protecting her meant protecting the Boss. This time, they had slapped themselves in the face.
