Chapter 65 I Said I Wouldn’t Go Back With Him
“I’ll give you ten minutes to persuade her, but she’ll have to come with me afterward. Otherwise, I’ll do it myself.”
Calista nodded quickly. “Sure, sure. Ten minutes.”
She dragged Amy upstairs hard and told her seriously, “Amy, you heard Mr. Cyan, didn’t you? He will drag you off himself if you won’t go with him. I want to help, but my hands are tied. It’s not like you don’t know how strong he is; we cannot deter him if he wants to buy Wallace Corporation. Can you go with Mr. Cyan for now so it won’t happen?”
Go with Edmond to serve that disfigured cripple Finley?
Amy would never do it and questioned Calista, “Mom, are you truly my mom? Am I truly your child? You understand that Finley’s not just disfigured but also a cripple, not to mention. that it’s rumored that anyone marrying won’t survive the night. So, sending me off to the Deans will be akin to sending me to the grave. What difference is there?”
Calista sighed. “Amy, I don’t want to send you off to him either, but what other option is there now? We shouldn’t believe those rumors; if marrying Finley means you won’t survive the night, why’s Samantha still unharmed?”
Amy shot back, “She’s the exception. She’s only alive on account of being an idiot, but I’m not one. Why should I face my death there? Mom, I beg you! Please conjure up a way out for me.
Please!”
There appeared to be no other choice; the only solution was for Amy to head to Finley’s.
Calista gave Amy’s hand a pat while reassuring, “Amy, settle down and listen. Finley has sent his assistant to get you. He will drag you with him if you won’t follow him, and I can never deter him myself. Listen, Amy. Go with Mr. Cyan.”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Amy shook her head. “I don’t want to. Why force me? Accompanying Finley ensures my death! I won’t go to my death! Never!”
Calista caught a panicking Amy helplessly. “Amy I’m repeating it. You have to go even if you won’t because you have no other option at all. Besides, the rumors don’t just mention Finley being cursed, but also him dying and being the only Dean heir. Everything that’s his shall be yours in that case. Amy, he might be disfigured, but consider his ‘assets. You could defeat everything with those.”
It wasn’t like Amy’s family was poor, so why did she have to run to him?
