Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan) novel Chapter 428

Hearing Jaylan's retort, I couldn't help but burst into laughter. "It's over! Hahaha... Medsafe Liyah Inc. is over!"

I threw my head back, laughing so hard tears streamed down my face. It was a huge relief!

The company was finally coming back into my hands. I muttered to myself, "I should have never handed Medsafe Liyah Inc. over to you, fattening up your greedy family like a Thanksgiving turkey! Now look at you, you've run it into the ground! Good, I'm glad it's over!"

Clapping my hands in sheer schadenfreude, I then fixed my gaze on Jaylan and roared, "It's about damn time! This is the Dawsons' fate!"

"I'm telling you now, Jaylan! Keep your tainted Medsafe Liyah Inc.; I'd rather take the money you mentioned for its rescue and invest anew, raise a new company! I won't be saving the rotten husk you've left behind!" I declared, slamming my sentiment down like a gavel. "You can kiss that dream goodbye!"

Upon hearing this, Jaylan sprang to his feet, his eyes bloodshot with rage. His face, already swollen from my earlier slap, twisted grotesquely, his hair a mess, far from his usual smug appearance. His eyes were filled with a murderous glare.

Hannah shook out her wrists, ready to leap into action.

Jaylan took an involuntary step back but tried to appear calm as he said, "Aaliyah, you're ruthless, watching Medsafe Liyah Inc. fall apart and doing nothing. You are cold-blooded!"

His jaw clenched in obvious fury, but with Hannah there, he dared not lay another finger on me.

Finally, he spat out, "Aaliyah, you want a divorce? Don't even dream about it. You're tied to me, Jaylan, for life! The only way you're leaving me is over my dead body!"

"Then die!" I hissed through clenched teeth, and then I scoffed at him, "You're already digging your own grave; do you really think there's a way back for you? Medsafe Liyah Inc. failing under your watch was inevitable! You'll be the laughingstock of Goldenvale Town, nothing but a gutter rat. Even with a mountain of gold, you'd end up broke. You're a lost cause, Jaylan. A perfect match for Zora; she's your true equal!"

Caught off guard by my words, he stared at me dumbfounded, then let out a sinister laugh, "Aaliyah, I underestimated you."

"Well, keep watching," I snapped, "because I will make this a life you'll never forget!"
