Chapter 1749

Back then, the Blue family arranged a marriage for her in the Capital, using her younger sister to threaten her. Now, the Riveras wanted to dissolve the engagement, again using her sister as leverage.

Everyone knew her younger sister was her Achilles’ heel, and everyone could manipulate her as they pleased.

She had never had a second option to choose from.

Skyler stared at Hudson with bloodshot eyes, but Hudson remained eerily calm as he met her gaze. He knew all too well that she had no other choice but to agree to his terms.

Skyler bit her lip so hard it turned white before she finally released the pressure. “Hudson, can you give me a few more days to think about it?”

Hudson smiled, “Zavier will be tied up for the next few days and certainly won’t have time to return. I’ll give you twenty-four hours to decide. Once that time is up, I expect the answer I want.”

His words effectively extinguished any hope she held onto, but she was still not ready to give up. She pulled out her cell phone to call Zavier, only to find she had no signal.e2

Hudson pointed upstairs with a smile, “We’ve installed a signal jammer in the house. You won’t be able to make any outgoing calls. If you receive any calls, we might let you answer as long as you watch what you say.”

This move by Hudson effectively severed her contact with Zavier. Without a connection to Zavier, she was left to fight alone. And how could she, alone, outsmart the cunning Hudson?

In an instant, Skyler felt as if an iron grip had tightened around her throat, and no matter how she struggled, she couldn’t break free.

Hudson continued, “Good girl, if you truly care for Zavier, then you surely know what’s best for him. Unless you don’t really love him at all, and you’re only with him to escape the clutches of the Blues.”

Skyler clenched her fists tightly, “Respecting him, considering his wishes, that’s what’s truly best for him.”

“Respect him? If he fails, who will respect him then? Once he successfully takes over Rivera Inc., who would dare not to? We both know this world is survival of the fittest.” Hudson’s smile was no longer the gentle facade Skyler knew but a chilling sharpness.

This version of Hudson sent shivers down her spine. It took her a long while to find her voice again, “But it was you who initially pushed for the alliance between the Riveras and the Blues. I don’t understand why you now want us to split now.”

Hudson replied, “How can you not understand? You know better than anyone that when I encouraged Zavier to ally with the Blues, it was because Zavier wasn’t yet strong enough to challenge Matthew and Owen head-on. He needed to keep his edge hidden. Back then, marrying into a less powerful family was a form of protection for Zavier. Now that Zavier has the strength to vie for Rivera Inc., and he’s determined to win, what he needs is a partner who can help him in this battle. If the Blues had maintained their status, even if they couldn’t assist Zavier, at least they wouldn’t hold him back.” Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Hudson’s gaze on Skyler sharpened menacingly, “But your family have declared bankruptcy at this critical moment. To outsiders, it’s as if Zavier has lost an arm. If Zavier doesn’t cut ties with the Blues quickly, those who support him will undoubtedly waver. I love my grandson, and I can’t bear to see him lose in this battle for succession.”

Skyler understood all of this perfectly well.
