Chapter 534

The previous night had been a nightmare. Fortunately, the truth was

out, and nothing much happened to him.

Suddenly, Hector noticed something, and his smile stiffened.

"Natasha, your face…

"It's just a minor injury," Natasha replied indifferently.

"What happened?" Hector frowned.

"A lot of things happened while you were gone, Hector." Jesicca

calmly briefed him on what happened.

Hector was livid. "The Grants again? They're crossing the line!"

It was bad enough that they set him up, but they have even hurt his

daughter? That was unacceptable!

"Don't worry, Dad. I'm fine now." Natasha consoled.

"It's my fault, Natasha. You suffered because I was useless." Hector

blamed himself. If he had known how despicable the Grants were, he would

have never agreed to the marriage proposal.

"Nonsense, Dad. We're lucky just to have you back. Let's talk more

inside." Smiling, Natasha took her father's arm and walked into the

estate.

Just as they arrived at the meeting room, their butler rushed into

the room. "Sir, the Grants just sent us a letter. Please have a look."

The butler held up an envelope and passed it to Hector politely.

"What?" Hector's expression darkened after reading the letter.

"What's wrong, Dad?" Natasha leaned closer and soon frowned.

The letter only consisted of a few words, but they couldn't be more

threatening. To sum things up,

the Grants were blaming the Harmon family for Layla Grant's death,

and they claimed that Dustin was the one who ordered the Harmon family to

do so.

Now, the Harmon family had two choices. The first was to hand the

culprit over and grovel for forgiveness for three days. The second was to

carry out the wedding as planned.

They could only choose one of the two choices. If they refused, the

Grants would come at them in full force, wreaking havoc.

"It seems like Tyler intends to use his sister's death as an excuse

to force me to marry him." Natasha frowned, surprised. She thought the

Grants would use other backhanded methods, so she didn't expect them to

be so forward.

The Harmon family now had no choice but to choose between submission

and war.

"Darling, Tyler seems to like you a lot. I think you should marry

him." Jessica coaxed. Tyler and Natasha were still engaged, so the best

solution would be to use their marriage to resolve this conflict.

"He doesn't like me-he just likes himself. I'm nothing but a tool to

him," Natasha retorted icily.

"That's impossible. He's willing to resolve this issue peacefully.

Isn't it obvious enough?" Jessica continued to persuade.

"He's someone who doesn't care about his own sister's death. Do you

think he's still a good person?" Natasha shot back.

"But…" Jessica didn't know what to say.

"Tyler is a power-hungry person. Natasha would never be happy if she

married him. We have to reevaluate this marriage." Hector announced,

displeased with the situation.

Previously, he had held out hope for the Grants, but he was now

utterly disappointed. There was no way he would watch as his daughter

jumped into this pit of fire.

"Hector, it's clearly written that if Natasha doesn't marry him,

we'll have to deal with the Grants' wrath. When the time comes…" Jessica

hesitated. She knew that their family wouldn't be able to withstand the

Grants' retaliation.

"We will face this battle head-on." Hector inhaled deeply, his gaze

turning determined. "If the Grants insist on challenging us, we'll rise

to the occasion. Worst case scenario, our families will no longer be

friends."
