Halsey was starting to lose hope. Was Gilbert really going to catch her tonight?Just then, a cab sped up and slammed to a stop right beside Halsey and Madeline. The driver rolled down the window, his deep voice commanding. "Get in."Halsey's eyes lit up. She reached out and opened the back door. "Maddy, get in!"Madeline slipped into the back seat, while Halsey opened the front passenger door and climbed in. "Drive!"The cab took off.Gilbert and his men arrived, shouting, "Stop!"But it was too late. The cab roared away.Frustrated, Gilbert put his hands on his hips. "Damn it! I'm gonna get that stupid cab driver who just ruined my plans! Bring me my car keys!""Here you go," one of his black-clad bodyguards said, handing over a set.Gilbert jumped into his Ferrari and slammed the gas pedal. Tonight, he was determined to bring Halsey back.Inside the cab, Halsey glanced at the driver. "Thank you."Then, she froze. She recognized him—it was the scar-faced man she had me

Gilbert's subordinate stammered nervously, "W-We've done everything we can, but the cab company has no record of this driver. His information is completely blank."Gilbert couldn't believe he wasn't even able to track down a single driver on his territory. He snarled, "You're useless!"Then, he hung up.His mind flashed back to Halsey's beautiful face and the graceful way she moved on the dance floor earlier. The memory stirred a restless heat inside him. The more out of reach she was, the more he felt himself burning. Halsey had already set his blood racing.Gilbert pulled out his phone and dialed another number. Soon the call connected, and his mother Yvette came through. "Hello, Gilbert.""Mom, arrange a dinner with the Lincoln family tomorrow. Since the Lincoln and Greenwood families have an engagement agreement, we should sit down and discuss my marriage to Halsey.""But it seems the Lincoln family doesn't intend to let Halsey marry you.""Well, I'm going to marry her!

Halsey felt a strong aversion toward Gilbert. After finally shaking him off tonight, he was back again with a demand for a family meeting."Mom, I don't want to see him! Sure, we were engaged, but he betrayed me by cheating with Sienna. He was the one who called off the engagement, so I think that makes the agreement null and void. I'm never marrying him!" "Halsey, your father and I are definitely on your side. We believe you should marry a man with good character. Gilbert never truly cared for you—he only used you to connect with our family. We haven't forgotten that. "But the Greenwoods have grown powerful in recent years. Our families have long-standing ties and intertwined interests that aren't easy to break. Just now, they called, pleading for us to give them a chance and meet with them. I couldn't say no. Why don't we meet with them tomorrow? We can end this engagement properly, face to face," Patricia suggested.As the Lincoln family's heiress, Halsey knew that with privil

Cyril began to explain."A few days ago, Lincoln Enterprise started a joint project with a multinational company. The work was underway when one of the workers suddenly fell at the site and was hospitalized. He seriously injured one leg. I sent people from the company to offer condolences and compensation, but the worker's family outright refused to meet with us. "The worker then made a big scene about it, which has seriously damaged our company's reputation. In the past few days, our stock price has plummeted, and the multinational company is already thinking about cutting ties. If they do, all our funds will be frozen, and once the cash flow dries up, Lincoln Enterprise will be bankrupt."Halsey's heart pounded. She had no idea Lincoln Enterprise was already on the brink of disaster."I've visited the worker's family several times, trying to talk it out. We were ready to meet their demands no matter what. But in the past few days, I couldn't even get a meeting. Today, the worker

Gilbert's handsome face was turned sharply from the slap.Halsey clenched her fist, her voice shaking with anger. "I used to think you were just a playboy, a shallow and unreliable man. But what you did this time showed me your true colors. You'll stop at nothing to get what you want, and you're willing to stoop so low. You have no bottom line, no morals. Do you really think I'd marry someone like you?"Gilbert slowly turned his face back to hers. Surprisingly, he wasn't angry at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "It's not up to you whether you marry me or not. It's up to me.""What exactly are you trying to do?""Mr. Payne from the multinational company has already arrived in the Capital. He's a friend of mine. If you refuse to marry me, I'll ask him to cut off cooperation with Lincoln Enterprise. Once that partnership ends, Lincoln Enterprise's entire cash flow will collapse, and your family's century-old legacy will fall apart—all because of you."Halsey's whole body trembled
