The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Ryan ignored Gregory's taunts and took a deep breath, his large hand holding Carrie's hand tightly. It trembled slightly as he declared, "I love Carrie. I won't marry anyone else but her. I will make her the happiest woman in the world."

As he spoke, he turned to look at Carrie. His teary eyes were filled with deep emotion. "Please... Let Carrie marry me."

A shy blush spread across Carrie's face, feeling warmth in her heart.

Bethany clenched her jaw as she watched them flaunt their love in front of her. Her expression twisted with a dark sense of longing, as though she were about to expose her hidden feelings and turn into a resentful creature.

"Heh..." Upon hearing this, Gregory let out a bitter and mocking laugh at Ryan. "Mr. Hoffman, as you are right now, you're not even qualified to stand in front of me. The fact that I'm even talking to you is already going above and beyond. Yet, you have the nerve to ask for my daughter's hand in marriage?

"Don't you remember how you acted at the last party? You were making it pretty obvious that you wanted to separate yourself from the Salvador family and show that we could never get along. I can see you showing a lot of interest in Bella Thompson. Maybe you should seek out Chairman Thompson instead of coming to me. Heh, I wonder what Justin would feel about that."

Ryan's temples throbbed with irritation as every word seemed to hit him hard. He felt so angry and frustrated, pushing his patience to the edge.

It was okay if Gregory only humiliated him. But dragging Justin and Bella into it felt like a direct personal attack. The anger that he had been holding back in his chest was about to explode, his fists tightly clenched.
