Chapter 46\u00a0<\/p>\n
1\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n
Genevieve\u2019s gaze landed on the bouquet before looking away. She could end it all the next day. She wanted to put that ridiculous marriage to rest once and for all.\u00a0<\/p>\n
However, the moment she picked up her car keys, her phone began to ring.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She frowned and tapped on the answer button.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A panicked voice rang out, \u201cMrs. Lambert, please come back! Something\u2019s wrong! Mr. Lambert Senior is suffering from sudden heart palpitations. He\u2019s in critical condition!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Genevieve\u2019s hand tightened around her phone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Raymond was suffering more attacks than he used to.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She couldn\u2019t help but feel like Raymond still didn\u2019t want her to get a divorce from Zachary, despite having agreed to it verbally.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Was he trying to threaten her with his health?\u00a0<\/p>\n
His butler, Wilson, continued, \u201cThe doctor said Mr. Lambert Senior kept calling out your name. Please, Mrs. Lambert. Come and see him one last time.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She sighed. Even though she already knew that he could be pretending, she couldn\u2019t just stand by and ignore him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She said, \u201cI\u2019ll be right there.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The atmosphere in the Sloane residence was almost suffocating.\u00a0<\/p>\n
With a sharp crack, a mug broke into pieces after being tossed onto the ground.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Regina\u2019s hair was a mess, and her makeup was running down her face. She was no longer decked out in glitz and glam. She knelt on the floor and tugged desperately at her father, Justin Sloane\u2019s pant leg.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDad! I won\u2019t! I\u2019m not going to marry that James guy! He\u2019s a pervert! I\u2019d rather die than marry him!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Justin kicked her away, his expression steely. He didn\u2019t have an ounce of sympathy for her in his glare.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou have no right to refuse, as you\u2019ve embarrassed our family! Our stocks are dropping\u00a0<\/p>\n
X CLOSE\u00a0<\/p>\n

rapidly. All of our partnerships are being cancelled. We\u2019re done for!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
2\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n
He pointed a finger in Regina\u2019s face. \u201cThe Landers family is the only one that\u2019s willing to help us right now! Their only condition is that you marry James. Either you marry him, or I disown you and kick you out. It\u2019s your choice!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Regina collapsed on the ground and stared at her father in disbelief. She had stolen, cheated, and framed others for the family glory that Justin was always talking about.\u00a0<\/p>\n
However, now that they were in trouble, he was pushing her off the other end by wringing her out to dry.\u00a0<\/p>\n
How ironic.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She was trembling as she stood and rushed back to her room in a frenzy. She locked the door and called Zachary, her hand shaking.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He was her last hope. The call went through.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cZach\u2026\u201d She sobbed desperately as she spoke. \u201cZach, save me! My dad wants to marry me off to James. He\u2019s trying to kill me! Come take me away and marry me! If you marry me, our problems will all be settled! Zach!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
All she heard was a long bout of silence.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Zachary sat in his office, staring at crashing line graphs and a pile of cancellation contracts waiting for his signature.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He listened to Regina\u2019s desperate cries over the phone, and his eyes softened for a moment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He really did love her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
However, the Lambert family simply couldn\u2019t suffer any more losses.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He pinched his brow tiredly. \u201cRegina, calm down. Don\u2019t argue with your father. Things\u2026 aren\u2019t as simple as you think. Give me some time. I\u2019ll think of a solution.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He was just trying to brush things over.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Regina couldn\u2019t believe it. Her cries stopped abruptly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
On the other end of the line, Zachary continued speaking gently as if he hadn\u2019t sensed anything. \u201cRest up first. Don\u2019t think too much, okay?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After he spoke, he hung up quickly, and the last bit of life in Regina\u2019s face completely drained\u00a0<\/p>\n
away.<\/p>\n
