章節 10: If you disobey

Catherine feeling vexed at the moment. Looking at Dylan who didn't even bother to take a glance towards her. She still can't believe Dylan's decision to call off the engagement. What was the reason? How did it happen? She's been using every resources just to find what happen to the point he decided to call off the engagement. All this time, she's been using his name to gain what she wanted. Either she they gave it to her politely or she took it away forcefully. She didn't bother what other people would think because they fear to offend her as Dylan Wright fiancee. Now, if Dylan no longer become her fiancee she would lose all that power and they will come after her. She definitely won't let that to happen. Even her family's company is in good condition ever since they got engage 4 years ago. She didn't mind he prolonged the engagement as long as Dylan becomes hers in the end. Catherine realize she's too naive when Dylan's P.A dropped the bomb a month ago. Right after that day, she's been trying so hard to persuade her parents and coming to the main mansion just so she could gain his parent and grandparent sympathy. She uses every skill she has and demanded her parent to stop any news regarding the cancelled engagement between them. Today, Dylan finally home and they decided to discuss it together with but whether Dylan likes it or not, the decision will be the same. She's going to be the next Madam Wright. The one who to be able to use any sort of resources, power and even money to however she want. There is no way she is going to let that opportunity passed by. Time to put out the action.

"Dylan, please forgive me for setting up the wedding date without discussing it with you. It's just that it's been four years we've been engage and all my friends are asking about the wedding. Please don't cancel the engagement over this. I'm sorry." Letting her eyes filled with tears and making her face looking sad and gloomy, in the other people's eye she look so pitiful. Even Dylan's mother felt sorry for Catherine.

"What are you sorry for Catherine? Dylan is the one who should be sorry. Dylan, i don't care how powerful you are but this is not the way you treat my daughter. She was engage to you for four years. And can't you actually consider all those years she waited for you to finally set the wedding date? It's not her who set the wedding but it was us. We as her parent could no longer see her looking like a widow when she's not even married to you yet. We want you to take the responsibility. Hold the wedding next two weeks and we'll forgive you. We'll pretend this never happen." Mr. Drew berated at Dylan who's still looking calm but his eyes made him shivers a little.

"Dylan, it's not good cancelling the engagement. You've been engage for too long and a lot of people knows about it. Cancelling it will affect our company. Plus, you and Catherine are not getting younger. You need to quickly produce an heir and Catherine even learn all that she need to do to be your wife. She even quit her modelling job just so she could be the perfect wife for you. She sacrifice everything for you only for you to repaid her like this. This is not how i taught you." Dylan's mother, Mrs. Madeline try to talk softly at her son. Knowing his stubbornness, she hope this can actually make him realize what he decided back then is wrong.

Dylan still kept quite about it. In fact, he was looking bored at this very moment. Even Catherine who's keeping an eye on him feeling anxious.

"Dylan,,,please don't cancel the engagement. If you're still busy, i'll wait and this time i'll wait for you to decide when you want our wedding to be. But please don't cancel the engagement. You know i love you." Catherine tried to gain sympathy again. This time, Dylan's grandparent started to interfere.

"The wedding will be set two weeks from now. Dylan, i expect you to hold onto your words. Otherwise you know what's coming for you." His grandfather starts to threaten this stubborn grandson. This time, Dylan snickered. Making everyone feels cold sweat dripping from their forehead. His dark aura starts to suppress everyone in the living room making it harder for them to breathe. For the first time, even his parent and grandparent are scared of him. It's probably them being delusional but they somehow could see some evil shadow looming over him. He stood up and button up his suit. Intending to leave. Not bothering them, he walked himself out.

"Dylan Wright!!! I order you to stop right there." This time it was his father's voice rung out. Dylan stop but didn't look back. Satisfied with his reaction, Mr Wright Jr threatened him.

"If you disobey us, you will never inherit anything from the Wright family." Everyone gasped but they know it's the only way to make Dylan bend to their request. And probably the only way for them to make him listen. Catherine already feel like he will do whatever the family told him to do. There's nothing that Dylan cared about than the inheritance. Just like her, Dylan grew up having power and wealth. There's no way he would be fine if it is being taken away. But hearing Dylan chuckle made her smile falters. Mr Wright also felt like he just made his biggest mistake in his life.

"Do as you please. It's never mine to begin with. From now onward, i will have nothing to do with the almighty Wright's family. I've passed all the work to your assistant. Mr Wright Jr and Mrs Madeline, it's nice having you as my parent." With that, Dylan left never looking back. No matter how many times his parent and grandparent call him, he never bother to look back. He took the only car he bought using his own money and drove away. His destination is set. To live the rest of his life beside his easygoing wife. But first, he need to give his wife a lesson. A lesson to remind her that he's his legal wife and not a mistress.
