Chapter 538:

Corrie’s words struck a nerve with Brook, wounding his pride deeply. With a sharp glare, Brook confronted her. “So, you’ve won Grandpa’s favor, huh? Thinking of cutting ties with me?”

Corrie, unashamed and bold, retorted, “Exactly. You’ve become a burden to me. You offer me nothing, and you certainly don’t fulfill me. Why should I marry you?”

“Fine, fine!” Brook muttered angrily. In his rage, he almost raised his hand to strike her, but he halted mid-motion.

Corrie stood unflinching, empowered by her newfound favoritism with Enzo. She knew that if Brook laid a hand on her, she could easily turn Enzo against him.

She provocatively tilted her head, daring him to act.

Taken aback by her audacity, Brook burst out laughing instead.

Lowering his hand, he conceded, “Clearly, I’m no match for you now. Well, I hope you get what you want.”

Smug with victory, Corrie watched Brook retreat, his figure shrinking with defeat. She reveled in her dominance, the thrill of power coursing through her.

Later that evening, as the dinner wound down and everyone left, Corrie headed to the parking lot. It dawned on her that she had arrived in Brook’s car, not her own.
