A Perfect Lie Hides Behind My Billionaire Marriage (reese and hudson)

Walter smiled, "Yes, it's me. What's the matter? Are you surprised?"

Mariel slowly backed away from him, his nerves tense, "Walter, what are you going to do? I would advise you not to be so reckless. Even though there is no one in this alley, the streets at both ends of it are very busy and full of people!"

Walter laughed mockingly, "Do you think I will be afraid? Mariel, you are too ridiculous. Since I dare to appear before you, I am not afraid of anything!"

At this point, Walter's expression changed, "Do you know what my biggest regret is, Mariel Chase? My biggest regret in life is that I got involved with you, a conniving woman. If it weren't for you, Lukas Strakovski wouldn't have turned on me. I'd still be at Cresta Del Bosque. Do you have any idea how many innocent people are suffering as a result of my feud with Lukas? They took it out on my family, the Simmons family, because they couldn't confront Lukas directly. Our family has been completely in ruins because of you, Mariel Chase! Does that make you happy?"

Mariel held the phone tightly. She knew the call was still in progress.

She could tell that Walter was risking his life and she was afraid that he was going to kill her. She could only hope that Anthony would be kind enough to call the police on her behalf after he had listened to the conversation on the phone.

Mariel stepped back as she stalled for time, "Walter, please, let's talk this through. Our engagement was called off because of Anika Styles, do you remember? I just don't want to come between you two. As for the Cresta Del Bosque, I didn't know it was that serious. In fact, I didn't even know that Lukas was the owner of Cresta Del Bosque. I didn't expect that from him. You can't put all the blame on me. If you're interested in getting back into the Cresta Del Bosque, I can help you with that. I'll have Reese plead your case with Lukas."

Walter's eyes narrowed and he glared at Mariel with anger. "Don't waste your words here. Our family is ruined, and I won't spare you today. I renounce the Simmons name!"

Saying that he turned to his men and motioned for them to come and seize Mariel.
