Chapter 258 A Desperate Bargain

Zeke spoke in a rush, his words tumbling over each other as his hands flailed helplessly in the air. “I-I’m terrified, Hazel. Do you understand what it’s like to lose the one thing keeping you alive? Without Evan., Who’s going to give me blood now? What if I die?

“I don’t want to die… I don’t want to die!

“I don’t want to leave any of you. I want to stay with you forever…

As he went on, his voice grew more frantic until it broke completely. His eyes were bloodshot as tears streamed down his face while he sobbed.

For a moment, the three heiresses felt their hearts soften. They could actually empathize with him. They understood his fear, his panic, and his loss of control.

In contrast, Evan’s actions seemed absurd and unreasonable to them. In their minds, they had done nothing wrong. If anyone was at fault, it was Evan.

The three of them hurried to comfort Zeke.

“It’s okay, Zeke. We’ll make him give you blood. You won’t die…”

However, even as they said it, they had no idea how to make that happen.

“Make him give me blood? That’s impossible now!”

Zeke’s words jolted them out of their fantasies.

Judging from their current situation, getting Evan to comply was harder than reaching the sky.

This wasn’t just about the divorce anymore.

It was also because Cain couldn’t make a move against Evan right now.

Even though Evan had divorced Hazel, he was still part of the Solberg family. Cain couldn’t hurt a hair on his head as long as that remained true. Without Gabriel taking action, the fake death plan had lost all meaning.

They had nothing.

“We have to find a way to bind Evan to us again…”

Unfortunately, Evan had already reached his breaking point.

Not only had he divorced Hazel, but he was also determined to cut ties with both the Leighton and Golden families.

Whether or not he had the ability to repay the Leighton family for their life-saving drug was another story, but it was obvious that he had made up his mind to do so.

They were losing their connections to him slowly but surely, yet they couldn’t bring themselves to ignore Zeke when they saw how he was on the verge of a complete breakdown.

Meanwhile, Zeke seemed to realize they were out of options upon their silence.

Suddenly, something occurred to him as he turned to Roxanne.

“Roxanne…. why don’t you marry Evan? Weren’t you about to marry him anyway? If you do, you’ll have the right to

make him give me blood…”

His thinking was simple. If one person couldn’t control Evan anymore, then surely another person could replace Hazel.

To him, he was willing to sacrifice everything and everyone as long as he could stay alive.

He saw the three heiresses as nothing more than pawns to keep Evan in check. And best of all, there were no consequences for him. Where else could he find such a perfect solution?

“What?” Roxanne froze, completely stunned. She hadn’t expected Zeke to say something like that

“That’s right! How did we forget that little tidbit?” Hazel turned to her, her eyes lighting up with hope. “Roxanne, haven’t you always envied how I controlled Evan? Now, you can do it too. Heck, maybe you can do it even better than I did!”

“Roxanne, just marry him. This is the only way to tie Evan down,” Anya added, nodding in agreement.

A loud buzz filled Roxanne’s mind as her mind went blank.

She didn’t want this. More than that, she felt wronged. She had already decided not to marry Evan.

That was why she had
