The price of betrayal (Jack and Ashley) novel Chapter 619

Jeanne, who was sitting beside Megan, watched her mutter to herself like she was possessed. But there was no trace of mockery in her expression. After all, no one would have the energy to ridicule another at a time like this.

Their thoughts were similar, though their approaches differed.

"You're right, Megan. You have to do whatever it takes to get Nolan to forgive you. Otherwise, you know that he's probably going to come after you next.

"Don't forget, you've provoked him one too many times before. He's long since lost his patience with you. So, imagine how grim your fate will be if you can't get him to forgive you this time."

At these words, Megan shook violently.

How could she not know? It was something she didn't even dare to think about.

"Nolan once said he would take back everything he ever gave me. And now, it's clear that everything I have was given by him. I'll be left with nothing if he takes it all away!"

Her company, villa, money, reputation, status—all of these were given to her by Nolan. So, even if he didn't deliberately target Megan, she and her family would likely end up homeless, living on the street, if Nolan took it all back.

No! She couldn't live like that, not even for a single day. She had to win Nolan's forgiveness, no matter the cost!
