Chapter 276

Corey had lived his entire life with pride and had never bowed his head this low. He was still trying to protect April. "Mr. Hendrix, I wonder if this proposal will satisfy you?"

Throughout the entire exchange, Nicolas hadn't spared Corey a single glance. His focus remained on Thea, attentive and gentle. "Don't ask me. Ask her." Thea was the one who'd been wronged, so it was her choice to make.

Corey clenched his teeth. He'd tried his best to form an alliance with Thea, but collaboration, first and foremost, required equality between both parties.

Asking Nicolas for help was a measure he only took because of Nicolas's strength. Yet Corey had never truly regarded any woman as worthy of his respect.

Pressing down on April's shoulder, he spoke sternly. "You caused this mess yourself; you should find a way to fix it. Now apologize to Miss Rowland. Immediately."

April's entire body trembled at his words. Her lips moved soundlessly before she finally made up her mind. "Miss Rowland, I was foolish and immature. Please...don't send me overseas. I promise I'll behave and never harm you again." "Immature? If I'm not mistaken, Miss Sandy is already an adult, isn't she?" said Thea.

"Trying to guilt-trip me? Not a chance, Thea thought.

Ignoring the cold glint in April's eyes, Thea knew full well she'd just made a permanent enemy of Corey. Yet she was unafraid. After all, April deserved every bit of it.

"Mr. Xander suggested sending her abroad, but he didn't specify which country, did he? How will she ever find peace like that?" Thea's lips curved into a subtle smile.

Her demand was simple. April had put her through a moment of terror. In return, Thea wanted April to live in a state of perpetual dread, hovering over the edge of ruin. Only then could Thea's anger be appeased.

For the first time, Corey sensed a terrifying aura emanating from Thea. His face darkened as he finally spoke. "Flaminshire? The place is war-torn, Miss Rowland. I need to ensure April's survival at the very least."
