The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never

“It’s not her fault!” Lydia snorted, “It’s all because of my father’s shameless actions!”

Recalling the incident two days ago, Lydia couldn’t hide her annoyance.

“Somehow, my dad figured out I was staying here.

I mentioned before that my father wanted me to return for an arranged marriage, didn’t I? When he discovered I was here, he assumed I had broken up with Brayden and gotten involved with Bryson.

He even had the nerve to send people to pressure me into marrying Bryson if I got the chance.

”

Lydia’s expression grew stormy as she spoke.

“I’ve told him off repeatedly to stop chasing after me, but he won’t quit! He showed up himself two days ago.

Thankfully, Grace managed to drive him out.

But then, he started pestering Grace.

”

Lydia scoffed and went on, “My good-for-nothing brother has not got married yet, and probably because my dad deems me unmanipulable, he’s trying to push Grace to marry into our family”

After saying that, Lydia thumped her head against a pillow twice, appearing completely dejected.

“Is this how I’m supposed to carry my life? With such a terrible father, I feel like I’ll be driven crazy before long.

If I die of natural causes, I’ll count myself lucky!”

Holding her fists tight, Grace looked at Hannah with pleading eyes.

“That’s our situation.

We’re too scared to go out without bodyguards.

We’ve been living in fear lately, always on edge, worrying that someone might appear unexpectedly.

Bryson has been occupied recently.

That’s why I don’t want to inform him about this.

”

Lydia angrily tossed the pillow onto the sofa.

“My father called me today and issued an order! He warned me that if I don’t return soon, he’ll seize the chance to apprehend me!”

The Phillips Group was deteriorating rapidly, much like the Moore Group that had lost the financial backing of the White family.

Hannah was well aware of what Lydia’s father was Like.

He wouldn’t give up until he had his way.

If Lydia gets dragged back by her father this time, she’ll surely end up confined at home, awaiting marriage.

With an increasing headache, Hannah massaged her temples.

“Have you tried to reach out to Brayden?” Hannah inquired.

Lydia hesitated and stumbled over her words for a while.

It wasn’t until Hannah noticed her hesitation that she finally said, “I didn’t…

I doubt he’d lift a finger even if I did call.

”

“How can you be sure he won’t step in? You’re his girlfriend now! He ought to stand by you no matter what.

”

Hannah reached for her phone, ready to call Brayden, but Lydia intervened by grabbing her hand!

“Stop right there!”

Hannah noticed something was off in Lydia’s demeanor and peered at her with concern.
