The price of betrayal (Jack and Ashley) novel Chapter 339

"Honestly, right now, it's not about the 100 million dollars—it's about getting Nolan's forgiveness. Until that happens, the Weiss family won't be able to sleep easily. Otherwise, if Nolan decides to make us pay for everything, it'll all be over."

George didn't know what to do anymore. He couldn't believe he'd been stupid enough to block Nolan at the hotel entrance and cause him trouble. Now, it was too late to fix it.

George gritted his teeth, unable to hold it in any longer. He grabbed Audrey and said, "Audrey, Audrey, what are you doing? Don't just stand there. Go get the Crystal of Devotion back, apologize to Nolan, and beg for forgiveness. Hurry up."

Audrey looked at George, her face full of despair, and said bitterly, "Do you think it'll even matter? Don't you think it's way too late for that? From the second I stopped trusting Nolan, he made it crystal clear.

"There's no future for us anymore. Is that what you wanted? Are you happy now? What's the point of asking me to do this stuff now?"

She broke down in tears, overwhelmed by the weight of her despair. Meanwhile, George slapped his thigh and slumped into a chair. He was on the brink of falling apart.

Watching the scene, Kara muttered angrily, "Don't be sad. It's not all lost. Audrey, you did everything for Nolan's sake. How could he not see that? He's a jerk if he doesn't.

"And even if he gave you the real Crystal of Devotion, so what? The Spirit of Life Serum is fake. Plus, he's treating Leonard in such a way. Myth Group won't let him slide.

"Even with the Baxter family backing him or his good ties with Mr. Norwich, it won't make a difference. Who's bold enough to stand in Myth Group's way when they're pissed?
