Furious, Nancy raised her hand to slap Landon across the face.
"You shameless bastard."
Landon easily caught her wrist.
"You didn't even hesitate to send your own brother to prison. Your family must despise you right now."
"Without your family's backing, do you really think you have a way out?"
"Marrying me is the only viable option you have left."
Nancy frowned. "If I'm so despicable to you, why are you so obsessed with marrying me?"
Landon's expression turned incredibly sincere. "Because I love you. I love you to death!"
Only Landon knew that everything he just said was utter bullshit.
Nancy's reputation in Aethelburg was completely trashed, and the Grover family's power was being rapidly devoured under mounting pressure.
The only reason he was so desperate to marry her was that The Hart Group was teetering on the edge of bankruptcy. A single push would topple it entirely.
The massive fire at the out-of-town factory had destroyed dozens of his production lines.
He didn't need to guess how the fire started—it was undeniably the work of the White family.
After the car bombing incident, the White family pretended not to pursue the matter publicly, but behind the scenes, they had been mercilessly sabotaging The Hart Group.
In less than a month, his company had suffered catastrophic losses.
If he didn't find a solution soon, his empire would crumble.
By then, he would have absolutely no leverage left.
Marrying Nancy now wasn't just about creating a media spectacle to boost confidence. It was also because the Grovers still had the Bishop family behind them.
As long as the Bishop family stood strong, the Grovers still had a chance to bounce back.
If the Grovers regained their footing, the Harts could reap the benefits too.
Not to mention, Nancy was currently carrying a Hart heir.
Nancy wasn't stupid; she knew exactly what Landon's true motives were.
