The price of betrayal (Jack and Ashley) novel Chapter 494

"Everything you've built in just a few short years is nothing more than an illusion when faced with someone truly powerful. Once Owen fully takes over Myth Group, he'll become the most formidable figure in the Eastern State, or even the entire Southeast!

"When that time comes, I'll make sure you lose everything. Nolan, I'll make you crawl to me like a dog to beg for mercy!" sneered Megan.

At that moment, Nolan was seated in the back of his MPV, accompanying Wayne and Melody as they made their way back to Bellington.

Wayne hesitated for a moment before finally speaking up, "Nolan, don't you think went too far with Megan? She's a woman, after all. Knocking out her teeth like that… She's going to hold that grudge forever.

"No matter what happened, you two were married once. Even if things didn't work out, wouldn't it be better to part on good terms?"

Nolan chuckled lightly. "Dad, Mom, it's not that I don't want to part on good terms—it's that she doesn't. You only saw me being harsh with her, but you didn't see how she and her family have been ungrateful and ruthless toward me.

"I've given her more than one chance. Do you really think she's genuinely remorseful and wants to make things right between us? If so, you've been fooled by her."

Wayne was about to say something when Melody shook her head and said, "Listen to Nolan. He's the one directly involved—no one understands the situation better than he does. Honey, you shouldn't meddle anymore. Haven't you learned your lesson already?"
