Wooing My Ex-Wife

Chapter 475 Engagement Annulled 

In the ancestral hall. Craig put the cane back into the box. A menacing glint flashed past his eyes as he recalled Gwendolyn making use of his sister and taking Jennifer away.

Treyton stayed awake the whole night, sitting by Jennifer’s bed all the way until the next morning.

After examining Jennifer, the doctor concluded that her body was still very weak and gave her two shots of sedatives to curb her hysteric behavior. However, the strength of the tranquilizers was also enough to knock her out for the entire night.

Treyton had bandaged Jennifer’s wrist after applying medicine to her wound.

With his gaze fixed on the woman’s haggard and pale face, he held her hand tightly, interlocking his fingers with hers.

Persuading her to return to the Newton family was the worst mistake he had made in his entire life. Treyton knew that, no matter what he did, he would never be able to make up for the hurt they had caused her.

He would be willing to accept any punishment from her after she woke up.

His eyes were bloodshot, his heart aching so badly that it felt as if he was going to suffocate.

A heavy atmosphere of despair enveloped the room, and the air seemed to grow denser, as if saturated with sorrow and helplessness.

Just then, Treyton’s phone rang, jolting him out of his sorrowful state.

It was Remus.

The moment the call was connected, Remus said in an ingratiating tone, “Mr. Treyton, I’ve given it some thought and decided to break off my engagement with Jennifer. However, please give me two days to think of a suitable excuse to tell Mr. Craig. Can you settle the online scandal for me first?”

Treyton’s expression darkened as he replied, “How dare you ask me to fix the mess on the Abbot family’s behalf when you haven’t even done what you’re supposed to do yet? Remus, are you taking me for a fool?”

“No! Mr. Treyton, you’ve misunderstood. I’m just—”

Not wanting to hear his explanation. Treyton cut the man off before issuing him an ultimatum. “I’ll give you till noon to break off the engagement with the Newton family. If you fail to do so, I will ask Kiddo to terminate all collaborations with Abbot Group. Do you want to see Abbot Group declaring bankrupt in just a few days’ time?”

If Harris Group decided to ostracize Abbot Group, the other major corporations would surely follow suit and boycott the latter company. Without the support of their partners, it would not take more than a couple of days for Abbot Group’s hotel and restaurant businesses to plummet to rock bottom.
