Happily Never After — Episode 9

But are you really going to marry that stranger? The engagement is fake for now, but I don't think Adrian's a bad guy. Everyone says he's just an ordinary man with no connections. So what? I have savings, and I know how to run a business. Even if I leave the Bennett Group, I can start a small company and build

a life with him from nothing. I'd rather lose everything I have than marry Ethan and hand him my shares and my life. This time, we protect each other. We never hurt each other over a man again. This time, we choose each other. After what you've done, you can still sit here and chat?

Tonight's fiasco is all over the financial world. Our stock is falling, and the banks and board are demanding answers. No matter what happens, neither of us will marry Ethan. One of you must accept his proposal and sign the partnership agreement.

I won't sign it. Even if I lose my position and shares, I'll never let Ethan control me again. You think you're the only ones who will pay if you refuse?
