Diana looked at Nathan with a look of exasperation, her tone leaving no room for negotiation.
"What is it about that woman that has you so utterly bewitched? I am definitely going to discuss this with your grandfather," she declared firmly.
Aware of Nathan's deep respect for old Mr. Ford, Diana used this knowledge to underline the seriousness of the situation. A woman who dared to challenge the head of the Ford family was a liability they could not afford.
Nathan's response was just as resolute.
"No matter who you talk to, my stance remains the same—I will not divorce Ava. As for any other schemes you might have, I advise you to abandon them quickly," he stated.
After these words, Nathan turned and walked away, ignoring Diana's earnest pleas from behind. He spat out a mouthful of blood into a tissue—Ava had indeed struck hard.
