The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never

Concurrently, Hannah departed from the Phillips Group and placed a call to Lydia.

Once Hannah relayed the recent events, Lydia’s laughter resonated joyfully through the phone.

“Really? They deserve a taste of their own medicine! If I were there, I’d have rendered them infertile! They would never dare to spout nonsense again!” Seated languidly on the couch, Lydia playfully swung her legs as she quipped, “Henry does nothing except indulge in food, drink, debauchery and gambling.

You must have given him a fright today!”

“I don’t think you dealt a strong enough blow to his companions though! They deserve to be behind bars the way they behave!”

Hannah, placing the contract aside, opened the car door and replied, “There’s no rush.

Since they didn’t value this opportunity, we should proceed with plan B.

I haven’t signed that contract with them.

You can ink it in a few days when you assume control of the company.

”

Lydia nodded, stating, “Very well.

By losing the contract today, I’m sure they’ll feel the weight of their actions, and expedite the process of arranging a marriage for me.

”

Lydia’s words proved correct.

The following morning, Lydia descended the stairs to find Alick sitting at the dining table.

With a cheerful countenance, Jaylin instructed the housekeeper to prepare an extra breakfast.

“Alick, you’ve been scarce around here since Lydia hasn’t been at home.

I consider you as my own son.

You should join me more often in the future when you’ve got no other commitments.

Seated beside him, Alick wore a subtle smile.

“I’ve known Lydia since childhood.

I’ve always regarded you as my senior.

Lydia descended the staircase, her stomach churning at the flattery exchanged between the two.

Coincidentally, Alick raised his head and locked eyes with Lydia, offering a warm smile.

“Lydia, you’re up early.

Join us for breakfast.

”

Without acknowledging him, Lydia took a seat farthest from Alick’s.

Upon her arrival, Jaylin’s smile waned.

“Lydia, why such discourtesy?

You didn’t acknowledge Alick’s greeting.

”

Lydia managed a strained smile in Alick’s direction before resuming her meal in silence.

Jaylin grinned and addressed Alick.

“She’s just been spoiled by me.

Don’t fault her.

”

Alick gazed affectionately at Lydia.
