“What did you say... It’s impossible!”
Yvonne’s eyes widened in panic as she struggled violently in Taylor’s grip, her fists raining punches on the man’s chest. “Nonsense! You’re lying to me!”
“Yvonne… Yvonne…”
Taylor stared at her in a daze, totally disregarding her struggles as he breathed heavily. “How could I lie to you? My feelings for you are genuine. I’ve never lied to you!”
“I’m wearing this face... I’m wearing Bella’s face. How could Chairman Iverson let you marry me?” Yvonne shouted and screamed, losing her composure. “I don’t want to marry you... No!”
“Then who are you going to marry if not me? Drew?!” Taylor suddenly roared at her, his eyes bloodshot.
Instantly, Yvonne felt as if a knife had cut into her heart. Her body turned rigid inch by inch in his arms.
Taylor pinched her chin harshly as if trying to crush her bones. “You’re run through by Chairman Iverson, and your face looks just like his sister. Do you think Drew would want you? Would he?!
“He is the distinguished young master of the Thompson family, held in a high position. What kind of woman hasn’t he seen? He doesn’t need to spend a penny for women to be throwing themselves at him, trying to get into his pants, dreaming and hoping of becoming the Thompson family’s young madam!”
Taylor’s words were like blades, stabbing into Yvonne’s heart until it was bleeding. “His interest in you is fleeting. He thinks you’re beautiful, tragic, and pitiful. It’s nothing more than the sympathy of someone in power for someone below them! But… I really love you! If it weren’t for me speaking for you in front of Chairman Iverson, secretly protecting you, you’d have been killed by him long ago, do you understand?!”
