Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband

Chapter 26 Regret

Chapter 26 Regret

"Just for now! Once I leverage the Donald family's power to secure a position in Hansen Group's

management, I'll divorce Mia and marry you. I'll make her leave with her baby," Eason explained

eagerly, trying to hug Cora's slender waist.

Cora suddenly bent her knee and hit Eason hard in his belly. Writhing in pain, Eason looked up in

shock, only to be met with the coldness radiating from Cora's delicate face.

"Eason, I used to think your obsession with money and power was just a bad influence from your

mother, and deep down, you were still a good person. Now I know you're a real bastard."

"If you can sleep with Carter, why not with me? How am I any worse than him? He chose to become

my uncle's useless assistant just to avoid fighting for his own share of the property against the other

Popes!" Eason retorted, still trying to justify himself.

"I don't care. You're just a scumbag!" Cora seethed with anger, delivering another forceful blow to

Eason's groin.

Eason was unaware that Cora's mother had enrolled her in various programs as an attempt to

discourage her from pursuing medicine. One of those was a close combat training program, which

Cora had quickly mastered and put into practice.

Eason never anticipated such ruthlessness. After being hit twice, he was in excruciating pain, beads of

sweat forming on his forehead. He bent down in agony.

Adding to Eason’s displeasure, Carter suddenly showed up and said to Cora, "Go to the lounge."

Cora was surprised, as Carter's message indicated Byron's invitation. She didn't want to face Byron

right now, but she yearned to rid herself of Eason and put an end to this farce.

"Okay," she nodded, "Let's go."

Cora briskly walked away, with Carter following her. Her decisive departure startled Eason, triggering

his panic.

Disregarding his pitiful state, he chased after Cora, blurting out, "Cora! I regret it. I will not get engaged!

Don't leave me!"

Cora halted in her steps. Eason said he regretted it…

This should have been a moment of joy for Cora, but she felt no excitement or happiness.

Instead, an overwhelming sense of disgust and embarrassment engulfed her.

With only a moment's pause, she resumed her stride, moving away from Eason. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

However, Eason, having mustered the courage to voice his true feelings, refused to let Cora go with

Carter.

He caught up to her, tightly gripping her wrist. His voice grew hoarse, and his eyes welled with tears.

"Cora, I'm calling off the engagement. I'll ask Mia to get rid of her baby. I promise everything will return

to how it was before. Please don't leave me. I'm begging you!"

Eason lowered his head, adopting a humble tone that revealed his deep fear of severing ties with Cora.

Even Carter couldn't help but give Eason another glance, believing it would be difficult for Cora not to

be moved.

However, to Carter's surprise, Cora forcefully broke free from Eason's grip and slapped him across the

face.

"You've made your choice, Eason. You don't deserve to say you regret it, nor should you let down

another woman. It only diminishes my regard for you," Cora turned around and left without glancing

back.

Covering his stinging cheek, Eason remained bent over, embarrassed, and utterly lost.
