A Heart Given Wrong

---- Chapter 5 When I returned to the Guzman family's penthouse in the city center, the family doctor was already there waiting. After a thorough examination, aside from some superficial injuries and shock, there were no major issues. Oswald walked over with a glass of warm milk and said softly, "Mr. Guzman, everything has been taken care of." Inodded without speaking. He continued, "We have launched a full-scale attack on Yvonne's company, Singer Tech. When the market opens tonight, it will be history.

"As for Yorke Corporation, we found that they have been committing extensive tax evasion and regulatory violations. All evidence has already been submitted to the tax authorities and financial regulators. "As for Malcom Group, their largest overseas client has unilaterally terminated all cooperation. At the same time, several banks under our control have frozen all their financing services." Oswald's tone was calm, as if he were discussing something trivial. But I knew that starting that night, those three families would fall from the clouds straight into the abyss.

---- "And the guests who were there," I added. "I don't want to see them again at any business function." "Got it." Oswald nodded. "Their companies will either be acquired or driven into bankruptcy. And they themselves will be permanently blacklisted from all high-end clubs and business alliances." This was the power of the Guzman family. One sentence was enough to decide the fate of countless lives. I took a sip of the milk. The warmth slid down my throat, but it couldn't thaw the cold in my heart. "Mr. Chance, do my parents know?" [ asked.

Oswald hesitated for a second but still answered honestly, "Mr. and Mrs. Guzman have already been informed. They're now on a private jet back from Saizland and should arrive by this afternoon." My eyes burned, and I nearly cried. For five years, because of Yvonne, I had deliberately distanced myself from them. I was afraid that if Yvonne learned about my background, our relationship would no longer be sincere. Looking back now, it was laughable. ---- "Mr. Guzman, don't be upset," Oswald quickly comforted me.

"Your father said that whatever you decide to do, the entire Guzman Group will stand firmly behind you." I took a deep breath, forcing down the bitterness in my chest, and asked, "Where's Yvonne now?" "As per your instructions, she's being held in the basement." I stood up. "Take me to see her." The basement was dimly lit. Yvonne was tied to a chair. Her face was bruised, clearly the result of some "special care". The moment she saw me, she struggled frantically. "Will! Honey! You finally came to see me." Her voice was hoarse, filled with fear and desperation.

I pulled a chair over and sat across from her, staring at her quietly. "After what happened, you still have the nerve to call me 'honey'?" "Marriage deserves mercy, Will!" she cried. "We've been together for five years. You can't do this to me. I love you! "You love me?" I laughed, as if I had just heard the biggest joke in the world. I stood and walked up to her. " ---- Yvonne, you don't love me. You love who I am and the benefits it could bring you. Unfortunately for you, you were blind and didn't see it." Her body trembled violently, and her face turned even paler.

My words seemed to have struck a nerve. "No. That's not it..." she stammered. "I was just... [hada momentary lapse of judgment! I wanted success too badly. I wanted to give you a better life." "Give me a better life?" I grabbed her chin, forcing her to meet my eyes. "Yvonne, do you have any idea how powerful Iam? To me, Singer Tech is nothing but a speck of dust. The investment you worked so hard to secure was something I could've easily provided with just one word. "You were willing to sacrifice me just to curry favor with Zoey.

Do you even realize that if I wanted to, the Malcom family could disappear from this world by tomorrow?"
