He turned to Sloane and spoke as if tossing her a scrap, "Sloane, if you still want to stay in the Rivers family, you'd better help us figure out how to get Boone out of this mess." Sloane looked straight at him and gave a faint, unreadable smile. "You must be joking. If none of you can fix this, what exactly do you expect me to do?" "You can go ask Lucas for help," Adrian said quickly, eyes locked onto her with a sense of urgency that brooked no argument. "You're still his fiancée. Right now, he's the only one who can help the Rivers family through this. As long as you ask, with his power, he can make sure our third brother comes out of this untouched." "Yes!" Helen latched on to that idea like it was her last hope. She rushed over and grabbed Sloane's arm so tightly her nails nearly dug into her flesh. "Go to Lucas. As long as he agrees to help, Boone will be fine. The company won't take a hit either!" Sloane stared coldly at the red marks on her arm and asked in a calm, almost emotionless voice, "And if he refuses?" "Then you beg him until he says yes!" Helen snapped. "Give him whatever he wants. And if that doesn't work, we'll go public and pressure him with public opinion!" Seeing Helen spiral out of control, Marshall finally stepped in. "That's enough! We're tied to the Hawthorne family through marriage. If Sloane goes to ask, Lucas won't just sit back and do nothing." His eyes flicked over to Sloane like she was a product on a shelf, as if weighing whether the trade was worth it. Sloane chuckled at herself. She already knew this family only cared about power and gain, yet still felt the need to ask. She looked down at her arm, where Helen bad grabbed her, and said slowly, "You're hurting me." Helen was startled by the iciness in her gaze and instinctively let go, though she still snapped back, "What's wrong with you? This isn't the time to be petty. Boone is suffering in there, and you're really just going to sit back and do nothing?" "So, my so-called family is willing to destroy me... just to save Boone." Sloane O 1/2 15:12 Mon, 1 Sept Chapter 46 Ruin Me to Save Your Precious Son +10 Free Coins raised her head and slowly scanned the faces in the room. Her voice wasn't loud, but it was sharp and cold as ice. "And I'm supposed to just go along with that?" Marshall's face turned red with fury, the veins on his forehead bulging. He pointed at Sloane, his voice a threat. "The Rivers family gave you a roof over your head. We fed you, clothed you. Now it's time for you to repay us. If you won't, then don't blame me for what comes next. Once those videos get out, you'll be going to prison just like any other murderer." Sloane let out a laugh. "Go ahead. I'd love to see which court takes your doctored videos seriously." Marshall hadn't expected her to know the footage was fake. His face twitched with panic before he forced himself to stay calm. "The videos are real. Otherwise, why would you have willingly locked yourself up in a mental hospital five years ago?" Helen, who had been quiet, blinked in surprise and quickly joined in, "Exactly. Don't be stupid. Go to Lucas like you should. Do it, and you can save yourself and Boone." Sloane was unmoved. "No. If you want him saved, figure it out yourselves." She turned and walked upstairs without looking back, tossing out one last cold sentence. "You want to leak the video? Go ahead. I'm waiting." Bang! Something crashed downstairs, but Sloane didn't even flinch. Her steps stayed steady all the way to her room. She kept repeating to herself: Don't care. Don't be upset. You already know what they are. 2.2 In "Country Gal to CEO's Bride" by CrushReel, Emma, a resilient country girl who has overcome hardships, finds herself entangled in a twist of fate when she mistakenly marries the dashing stranger, William.
