Continue Regular Chapter Reading Below Chapter 42 Arabella twisted and turned desperately, panic surging through her as she tried to break free from Jayceon's grasp.

Her heart pounded wildly, and her breath came in short gasps. She couldn't bear the suffocating hold he had on her. Chester's eyes flicked toward Conrad, silently seeking confirmation. Conrad nodded firmly. "Dad, I agree to their divorce," he said without hesitation. Jayceon's voice dropped to a low, almost dangerous whisper as he confronted Conrad. "This is my marriage. What right do you have to agree to this?" Conrad met his gaze steadily.

"Even if it's your marriage, I have the authority to make this decision-and I can get you divorced." Jayceon's grip tightened, trapping Arabella in his arms, preventing her from kneeling down again. His voice was cold and deliberate as he addressed Chester and Conrad, enunciating each word with fierce determination. "I will not divorce." Tears streamed down Arabella's face as she slid from Jayceon's hold, her voice trembling. "Jayceon, please, I'm begging you.

If you don't grant me a divorce, I swear I'll die." His eyes glistened with red-rimmed pain, a deep ache hidden behind his stern expression. In a low, harsh tone, he snapped, "We're fine. What nonsense are you speaking?" Arabella collapsed to the floor before him, utterly shattered, her mind teetering on the edge of despair. Her sobs echoed through the room as she pleaded, "I know in your heart, you've always loved Georgina. Even if you married me in anger three years ago, you never let her go.

Now that she's back-and you have a child-don't be angry with Chester, not even for their sake or hers." Her voice cracked as she continued, "Jay, I'm on my knees. I'll give back my happiness to you. I'm begging you, for the love I've held for you all these twenty years... please, grant me a divorce." With a forceful motion, Jayceon lifted Arabella off the floor. He avoided looking at her broken form, his voice strained and distant. "We'll discuss this at home." Arabella's resolve crumbled entirely. She screamed, twisting away from his outstretched hands. "I'm not going back with you!

I want a divorce!" Ignoring her frantic resistance, Jayceon gathered her into his arms and strode purposefully out of the study. "What's happening here?" Tabitha and Kimberly appeared in the living room, their faces etched with worry. They exchanged alarmed glances as they saw Jayceon carrying a sobbing Arabella, her distress unmistakable. "Mom, we're leaving now," Jayceon said firmly, cutting off any chance for Arabella to speak as he pulled her away. Sensing the tension, Tabitha hurried toward the study, her heart heavy with unease. Chester finally broke the silence, his voice grave.

"You need to see Georgina. No matter if the child is Jay's or not, he cannot divorce Arabella." Tabitha nodded silently, absorbing the weight of his words. For Chester, the Melendez family's honor and unity were paramount above all else. Even if the child truly belonged to Jayceon, he would never accept him. Conrad frowned in confusion. "Dad, the Palmers have long since lost their status. Arabella has been married to Jay for three years, yet she has no children, no career. She's no different from Georgina.

We can find Jay a better match." Chester settled back into his chair, his expression hardening. "Georgina may come from humble origins, but she's greedy and shameless. Even if the child is Jay's, she'll never be part of this family." Tabitha interjected softly, "Chester, you oppose the divorce because you want Arabella to stop Jay from bringing Georgina and her child into the family. But that's unfair to Arabella." Conrad sneered, "She's a fallen socialite. She should be grateful Jay married her. What more fairness does she expect?" Chester's tone was resolute.

"Though the Palmers have lost their standing, Arabella received the best education, mastered proper social etiquette, and moved in the highest circles from childhood. She surpasses Georgina in knowledge, insight, and manners. It's just that Jay has spoiled her, making her useless these past years." Turning to Tabitha, Chester commanded, "Until Georgina and her child are dealt with, Arabella cannot leave Jay. As her mother-in-law, you must discipline her from now on. Make sure she doesn't disgrace our family." Tabitha left the study, her heart heavy with the burden of this new responsibility.

She couldn't view her son's marriage through the cold lens of business, as Chester and Conrad did, where profit and status always came first. More than anything, she hadn't expected the woman Jayceon loved-who vanished for six years-to return with a child in tow. Until she could confirm whether the child was truly her grandson, Tabitha felt she couldn't face Georgina yet. She turned to Kimberly with a gentle but firm reminder. "Kim, your brother is having problems in his marriage. Spend more time with Arabella lately.

Try to comfort her." Kimberly, who had been quietly listening at the door, nodded. "I understand, Mom." Back in her room, Kimberly sat alone, unease gnawing at her. The fear that Jayceon might lose his mind, actually divorce Arabella, and bring Georgina and the child into their home weighed heavily on her mind. Unable to shake her worry, she dialed Arabella's number. The phone inside Arabella's bag rang persistently, but she was too overwhelmed to answer. Since the moment Jayceon had forced her into his arms in the car, she had been unable to break free.

No matter how much she cried or struggled, he refused to let go. They had been locked in this painful battle the entire journey, both of them disheveled and exhausted, their emotions raw and exposed. Conclusion This chapter plunges us into the heart-wrenching turmoil between Arabella and Jayceon, revealing the deep fractures in their marriage and the unyielding grip of family expectations.
