Chapter 32 Coaxing into Betrayal
Last Updated:
2024-05-24 01:01:43Regina stared at Mr. Tan, her eyes wide with shock. “Resign? Dad, isn’t it too sudden for me to step down without even meeting with the board of directors?”
“I’ve already met with them, and besides, I hold the majority shares in this company. Regina, you must realize what you’ve done to the company. There’s been no progress, and you’ve caused us significant losses. Do you really think you still deserve to lead?”
Regina swallowed hard, trying to maintain her composure. “Dad, I can’t just leave. Please give me another chance. I’ll recover the losses by securing even bigger projects.”
Mr. Tan scoffed, his disdain evident. “How do you plan to do that? You’ve failed so many times that it’s been embarrassing for me. It’s better if I manage my own company. Your academic brilliance has done nothing but bring this family down.”
Regina clenched her fists. It was always like this; no matter how obedient she was, any problem was always deemed her fault.

"Henry, I don't have time for games, and stop threatening me to fulfill your desires. You can't possibly know what I need anyway.""Are you challenging me? Do you want me to prove it by barging in right now and causing chaos?" Henry retorted.Regina bit her lip, feeling pressured. "Don't come in. Okay, I'll come out. Just don't make trouble again."Regina could hear the annoying laughter from the man. "Relax, I won't do anything as long as you comply. I'll give you a minute, if you don't show up, then I will." Henry abruptly ended the phone call."Damn man!" Regina couldn't help but curse the man who infuriated her.Regina quickly exited the office, ignoring the employees who looked at her with curious eyes. The only thing on her mind was preventing Henry from causing further trouble for her.Regina found Henry's conspicuously luxurious and limited edition car, its license plate was enough to demonstrate its owner's influence.

"Regina, I know it's hard to believe, but I truly had no part in leaking that project. That's why I'm helping you now to make up for what my family did to you," Henry took a deep breath before continuing. "If you're feeling vulnerable, my parents might try to pressure me into making you leave. If you agree, I'll be the one at a loss, and that's why I'm doing this."Regina stayed quiet, thinking about Henry's words. After a moment, she responded. "Alright. If you're doing this out of guilt and you have the information I need, then you have to either pull out your spy or tell me who they are. I'll take it from there.""That's not possible. Mr. Tan probably has spies in every rival company, right? Why should I pull out mine? They could be useful to you," Henry firmly stated."They're not useful to me. Ultimately, they'll only report to you. Only you can control them. How can I trust you won't misuse them to harm our family?" Regina insisted."Regina, don't y

“Ah!” Rosa whimpered in pain as Henry pushed her away. Henry immediately turned to Kevin. “What’s wrong? Why are you crying? Did someone hurt you?” “I want to go home! Go ahead and do whatever you want with the Principal. I’m going to tell Mom about this,” Kevin said, glaring at Henry before turning to leave. “Wait!” “Mr. Jian, are you just going to leave me here? My leg hurts even more now,” Rosa complained, her voice tinged with a childish whine. “I’m sorry, Ms. Rosa. You can call my assistant to pick you up,” Henry responded, trying to remain polite. But Rosa persisted, “I want you to take me. Don’t you feel responsible after—” “Principal, are you trying to test my patience? Don’t say things that can be misunderstood. I don’t want any trouble.” Henry brushed her hand away and walked off. “Damn it! It’s all because of that kid! I almost had Henry Jian.” *** Henry caught up with Kevin just as he was about to step out the door. “Wait, you can’t go home alone. What

Regina exited the store with the man she had just met. “Thank you for helping me,” she said. “No problem. I hope your son likes it. Here, you can contact me if you need anything.” The man handed her his business card. Regina accepted it politely. They exchanged farewells, and Regina returned to the car where Henry was waiting. His gaze was sharp. “Who was he? You seemed quite familiar.” “An old friend I ran into,” Regina replied curtly. Henry was about to say something, but Regina cut him off. “He’s married! Your look suggests you think I’m having an affair, so let me be clear—that’s not happening.” Henry nodded. “Oh. Good. I trust my wife.” His words were gentle, but his eyes were not. “If you’re angry and want to criticize me like you usually do, just say it. There’s no point in holding back,” Regina scoffed. “No, I won’t get angry at my wife over something as small as this.” Henry smiled softly, but the smile concealed much. “Whatever!” Regina grabbed a drink from h

The secretary retrieved her phone. "Have you seen enough? Now I understand why you're so adamant about holding on. Before, I envied you, but unlucky women will always be unlucky.""Have you said enough? Go back to your work and stop meddling in other people's affairs," Regina sighed, trying to contain her emotions.The secretary smirked sardonically, "Regina, you're still acting arrogant. You'll lose everything, whether it's your career, family, or husband."Regina slammed the table in frustration. "I can't take it anymore. Do you think you're so great? If my father were to dismiss you, you'd be worse off than me! You'd better focus on buttering up my father to keep yourself in his favor.""You!" The secretary moved as if to strike Regina, but her hand was pulled back. She just walked away, leaving Regina behind.Regina sighed. "Henry, what do you really want?" muttered Regina.She picked up her phone, dialing Henry Jian's number. "I want to meet you. Book a private place. I need to

Regina pushed Henry away. "What are you doing? Why you using a trick like this in public?" She shot him a furious glance."This is part I was telling you about ."Regina's mind was still reeling after the staged kiss from Henry. She could still sense a lingering warmth on her lips."Mommy!" Kevin approached them, accompanied by a man who turned out to be Evan.Evan greeted Regina warmly and received a polite response. His gaze turned sharp upon seeing Henry. "I understand this isn't polite, but can you both restrain yourselves? It's not appropriate for children to witness such displays of affection. I can shield Kevin's eyes, but there are many other kids here."Regina felt uneasy. Henry, however, responded with nonchalance. "Apologies for my lack of restraint, but surely you understand the sentiment, as a fellow man wanting to express love upon seeing such a beautiful wife."Evan nodded.

"Dad?" Regina was startled to see Mr. Tan in her office. She stepped forward and took the documents from his hand. "Isn't it impolite to enter someone else's office and read important documents?""Are you dare challenge me now?" Mr. Tan stared at her with an intimidating glare. "Because Henry is behind you, so you feel better than me?""No. I just--""Forget about that project. They won't give you a chance just because Henry supports you. But, I'm impressed with what you've done, even stealing company data to make this useless proposal." Mr. Tan criticized her."It's not useless. I'm sure I'll land this big project!" Regina asserted confidently."Regina, I'm impressed. I'll give you a chance. You know about the ongoing project, I want you to take charge. I've already prepared a team to go with you tomorrow, and about accommodation, I've taken care of it as well.""Why is dad suddenly giving me this job?" Regina

"Dad, why didn’t you tell me this project had so many problems? How are we supposed to proceed like this?" Regina called Mr. Tan, seeking an explanation."That’s a challenge you need to face. I wanted you to handle everything. Haven’t I already provided you with a team of experts?" Mr. Tan responded nonchalantly."But some of them are delayed. Did you intentionally give me a problematic project?" Regina questioned."Regina, every project has its issues. Handle it your way. You want me to keep you as CEO, right? If you can't manage a problem this small, how do you expect to be worthy?" Mr. Tan ended the call abruptly, leaving her feeling belittled.Regina put down her phone, contemplating her next steps. "Are you done complaining to Mr. Tan?" her secretary approached. "You look stressed. Are you thinking about quitting?""No. We’re starting a discussion.

"Henry, did you really fire me? Can't you differentiate between personal issues and work?" Reina protested vehemently.Henry gave Reina a cold stare. "This isn't personal, Reina. You violated professionalism by neglecting your duties yesterday. Besides, I want us to end this relationship. I expect you to clear out your belongings from my apartment as well."Reina smiled bitterly. "You just want to discard me when you're bored?

"You don't need to walk me all the way in," Regina said politely. "No, I can't leave you alone. Besides, I want to meet your child. You might be pushing me away because of your kid, right? If I can get him to like me, you'll accept me too, won't you?" Harlan replied with confidence. Regina looked at him seriously. "Harlan, don't waste your time on me. You deserve someone better. My life is too complicated right now; you might regret it." Harlan smiled gently. "It's okay. I'm ready to face everything. I'd regret it more if I let you go."

Regina stood silent for a moment, stunned by Kevin's unexpected request. "Kevin, isn't this... I thought you didn't want me and Henry to separate. Why are you suggesting this?" "Because Dad doesn't care about your feelings anymore. I don't want you to endure his betrayal. If Dad has chosen another woman, why can't you be with someone who makes you happy? I just want to see you happy." Regina hugged Kevin tightly. "Kevin, thank you for thinking about me. I'll try to meet someone else, and I promise he will treat you even better than Henry did." Kevin's small arms hugged her back. "You don't need to worry about me, Mom. As long as you find someone you love, I'm okay with whoever it is." Regina smiled and gently brushed Kevin's hair.

Regina clenched her fist as she looked at the photo circulating on the internet. Even though it had been a while, she could still recognize the woman's face. "So, they're back together?"Her phone was swiftly snatched by Rey. "No need to dwell on gossip that distracts you from your work. If you can't concentrate, you might as well not work at all. Luckily, I'm still giving you the chance to work in a leadership position.""I know. I just happened to see the photo." Regina typed something back.Rey placed Regina's phone down. "Should I get rid of that woman? Henry seems happier with her than with you."Regina took a deep breath, trying to calm herself from the onslaught of emotions. "There's no need, Brother. I don't want to meddle in his personal affairs."Rey sneered at her, "Didn't you defy Dad to marry him, and you were so stubborn about refusing to cooperate with me and Dad just because of that man.

"Regina will be the CEO of the company, replacing me!" Mr. Tan asserted. "Regina, could you say something to our colleagues?"Regina averted her gaze. She tried to calm her feelings and thoughts. However, a loud voice suddenly erupted. "I didn't give you permission!"The man, none other than Henry, immediately stepped onto the stage and grabbed Regina's hand. "Come with me!"Rey quickly restrained Henry's hand. "Just because you're her husband, does that give you the right to dictate what Regina does?"Henry glared at the man. "You're just an outsider, better stay out of this!""Outsider?" Rey smirked bitterly. "I'm her brother. I have every right to defend my sister.""That's enough!" Mr. Tan halted the debate between the two men. "Henry Jian, release your grip on my daughter."Henry chuckled instead. "Now you're calling her your daughter just because she obeys you?

I've successfully deceived her," a sly smile etched on the woman's lips.***Regina struggled to open her car door, her trembling body making it difficult. Something called out to her from behind. Nervously, Regina turned around."You? What are you doing here?" Regina was surprised to see Henry.Instead of answering, Henry mocked her.

Her assistant turned to face her with a condescending smile. "You! Are you conspiring with them? If Henry finds out, then you--""Mrs. Regina, you should worry about yourself before threatening me. I'm not as naive as you, falling so easily into this game!" Her assistant turned away.

Henry clenched his fists as he watched the video. "Damn it, what kind of game is this? Could someone inside the company be involved?" "I believe so. CEO Jian, actually Mr. Jian, contacted me and said that if you want to know who's behind this, you need to meet him." Henry paused for a moment. "Alright, arrange a meeting with Papa immediately!" His assistant pulled the car over to a safe spot and began sending a message to Mr. Jian. *** "So, Henry. Didn't I warn you that bringing that woman into the company would only lead to losses?"
