Pampered By The Ruthless Underground Boss

Chapter 634:

Khloe had long harbored suspicions about Eric’s involvement in her imprisonment, though she lacked concrete proof. Everything became clear, however, the moment she overheard Sloane’s damning confession. The pieces fit together perfectly.

Eric craved power and prestige, yet he couldn’t risk anyone discovering that he’d achieved it with Khloe’s help. Instead of shielding her from those plotting against her, he had covertly aided them, ensuring her downfall was absolute.

The revelation laid bare Eric’s true nature, leaving his face a storm of unease and anger. Confronted by Khloe’s piercing, disdainful glare, his pride crumbled under the weight of her silent judgment.

Pressing his lips together, Eric fought to maintain control. His voice, cold and sharp, finally broke the silence. “You’ve got it right. Yes, I need your help to secure my position as the Watson family heir. But I’ve been honest with you—I’m offering marriage. I’ll give you the grand wedding you deserve and devote myself to you completely. Isn’t that enough? Sure, Uncle Henrik might seem like a knight in shining armor now, but that’s just the charm of something new. Once the novelty fades, do you think your story with him will end well? If you truly end up with him, let’s consider what your life would be like. He’s controlling, icy, and utterly uncompromising. You’d be reduced to catering to his whims, bending over backward to keep him satisfied. Forget having your own opinions—you’d live your life in deference to him. Is that really the kind of happiness you dream of?”

Eric’s self-assured smirk grew. “But I know you better than that, Khloe. Deep down, you’d hate being suffocated by a man like him. With me, things would be different. Together, we’d build an empire, a life of power and influence. What can Henrik offer you? A fleeting illusion of joy? Only I can give you the fulfillment you’ve always deserved. Let’s focus on the future, not the mistakes of the past.”

He ended his speech with an air of arrogance so thick it seemed to suffocate the room.

To anyone listening, he might have sounded like Khloe was the one dwelling on past grievances.

His brazenness was so appalling that Khloe found herself momentarily speechless, shocked by the depths of his shamelessness.
