The previous night had been a nightmare. Fortunately, the truth was out, and nothing much happened


    to him.


    Suddenly, Hector noticed something, and his smile stiffened. “Natasha, your face…


    “It’s just a minor injury,” Natasha replied indifferently.


    “What happened?” Hector frowned.


    “A lot of things happened while you were gone, Hector.” Jesa calmly briefed him on what happened.


    Hector was livid. “The Grants again? They’re crossing the line!”


    It was bad enough that they set him up, but they have even hurt his daughter? That was uneptable!


    “Don’t worry, Dad. I’m fine now.” Natasha consoled.


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    “It’s my fault, Natasha. You suffered because I was useless.” Hector med himself. If he had known


    how despicable the Grants were, he would have never agreed to the marriage proposal.


    “Nonsense, Dad. We’re lucky just to have you back. Let’s talk more inside.” Smiling, Natasha took her


    father’s arm and walked into the estate.


    Just as they arrived at the meeting room, their butler rushed into the room. “Sir, the Grants just sent us


    a letter. Please have a look.” The butler held up an envelope and passed it to Hector politely.


    “What?” Hector’s expression darkened after reading the letter.


    “What’s wrong, Dad?” Natasha leaned closer and soon frowned.


    The letter only consisted of a few words, but they couldn’t be more threatening. To sum things up,


    the Grants were ming the Harmon family for La Grant’s death, and they imed that Dustin was


    the one who ordered the Harmon family to do so.


    Now, the Harmon family had two choices. The first was to hand the culprit over and grovel for


    forgiveness for three days. The second was to carry out the wedding as nned.


    They could only choose one of the two choices. If they refused, the Grants woulde at them in full


    force, wreaking havoc.


    “It seems like Tyler intends to use his sister’s death as an excuse to force me to marry him.” Natasha


    frowned, surprised. She thought the Grants would use other backhanded methods, so she didn’t expect


    them to be so forward.


    The Harmon family now had no choice but to choose between submission and war.


    “Darling, Tyler seems to like you a lot. I think you should marry him.” Jessica coaxed. Tyler and


    Natasha were still engaged, so the best solution would be to use their marriage to resolve this conflict.


    “He doesn’t like me-he just likes himself. I’m nothing but a tool to him,” Natasha retorted icily.


    “That’s impossible. He’s willing to resolve this issue peacefully. Isn’t it obvious enough?” Jessica


    continued to persuade.


    “He’s someone who doesn’t care about his own sister’s death. Do you think he’s still a good person?”


    Natasha shot back.


    “But…” Jessica didn’t know what to say.


    “Tyler is a power-hungry person. Natasha would never be happy if she married him. We have to


    reevaluate this marriage.” Hector announced, displeased with the situation.


    Previously, he had held out hope for the Grants, but he was now utterly disappointed. There was no


    way he would watch as his daughter jumped into this pit of fire.


    “Hector, it’s clearly written that if Natasha doesn’t marry him, we’ll have to deal with the Grants’ wrath.


    When the timees…” Jessica hesitated. She knew that their family wouldn’t be able to withstand


    the Grants’ retaliation.


    “We will face this battle head-on.” Hector inhaled deeply, his gaze turning determined. “If the Grants


    insist on challenging us, we’ll rise to the asion. Worst case scenario, our families will no longer be


    friends.”
