Unloved Unwanted Unstoppable (Seraphina and Dominic) novel Chapter 500

"Cynthia, it's not that I don't want to help, but I can't even save myself right now."

He crouched down, resting his hands on the edge of the coffee table.

"My mom cut off all my cards. I don't have a single dime to my name, and she won't let me touch anything at the company."

"How am I supposed to help you?"

Cynthia lowered her gaze, her fingers gripping the edge of the sofa cushion.

"So you're just going to watch me die?"

"If Ross Healthcare goes under, I'll have absolutely nothing left."

Harvey reached out to grab her hand, but she gently pulled away.

He panicked, his voice rising.

"How could I ever stand to watch you suffer? I just don't have a way out of this right now!"

"The Jameson family has me on a tight leash, and that woman Bella, she..."

Cynthia looked up at him, her gaze icy enough to douse him like a bucket of freezing water.

"What about her? Isn't she your fiancée?"

Harvey choked on his words.

Bella was his fiancée, yes, but she was also far more terrifying to deal with than his own mother.

Seeing the sheer helplessness written all over him, Cynthia turned her head away, refusing to look at him.

"Forget it. I shouldn't have come to you."

"Just go."

Her voice was flat and devoid of emotion, but that stung Harvey far more than her pleading had.

It felt like a vice gripped Harvey's chest. He reached out and pulled her into a hug.

"Cynthia, please don't be like this."

"It breaks my heart."

Cynthia didn't struggle. She simply leaned against his chest, staring blankly ahead, her eyes as cold as ice.

Watching the screen, Seraphina's frown deepened.

She turned to look at Bella.

Bella stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows, still holding the remote. Her expression was perfectly calm, and a faint, almost imperceptible smile lingered on her lips.

Noticing Seraphina's gaze, Bella turned her head.
