Chapter 453:

“I can free you from your father’s grasp and even arrange your marriage into the Brooks family as Wade’s partner, but only if you accept one condition.”

Angela, cunning as ever, steered the conversation back to Lindsay and Wade, her voice shaking with fear.

“Wade? But isn’t he your fiancé?”

Lindsay’s expression remained calm, her lips curling slightly.

“If you’re interested, he could be yours.” With that, Lindsay said no more.

Angela understood that this was a trap set by Lindsay, yet she dived right in, unable to tolerate any more of Rolland’s abuse.

“Deal,” she said firmly.

Lindsay rose lazily upon hearing the answer she anticipated.

“Take a week to recover. Make sure you look attractive when it’s time. I’ll send you to Wade’s bed then.”

Angela was puzzled over why Lindsay hadn’t revealed any condition yet. Was it just because Lindsay disliked Wade and wanted to use her to break the engagement? No, that couldn’t be it. In their world, there were no favors without strings attached.

Angela raised her head, locking eyes with Lindsay.

“What is it that you want from me?”

Lindsay brushed a stray hair from her face and smirked.

“Not much. Just help me handle a mutual enemy.”

Angela guessed quickly.

“Harlee?”

“You catch on fast!” Lindsay’s smile broadened.

“You get your revenge and what you want.”

Isn’t that beneficial for Angela remained silent. On the outside, it seemed she stood to gain from this deal, but the specifics of what she would need to do were left unsaid, tying her freedom and future to this agreement.

Previously, Angela would never have gambled her freedom on such a partnership, but now… she had nothing left to lose.

“Yes. Thank you for giving me this opportunity!” Angela said to Lindsay.

Just then, a knock snapped Angela back to reality.

“Come in.” Angela adopted the soft demeanor expected of a pregnant woman.

Lillie walked in, concerned to find Angela on the sofa rather than resting.

“Oh, dear, why aren’t you in bed? Tomorrow’s a big day. You should sleep early to keep your skin glowing.”

Angela relaxed into Lillie’s embrace, her face etched with uncertainty.

“Mom, I’m unsure if I’ve chosen rightly this time.”

Lillie comforted her, patting her shoulder and sighing.

“Angela, you are our family’s pride. With your capabilities, you deserve someone of Wade’s caliber.

Don’t doubt yourself.

Be brave and press on. I’ll always support you.” Her gaze intense with concern, Lillie continued, “Tomorrow’s your significant day.
