Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO novel Chapter 1735

Anyone else would probably think she was making it up.

But if she didn’t speak about it and kept everything bottled up, it would only feel worse.

No matter what, she would never agree to Edwin’s demands.

She didn’t want to destroy the balance that once existed between the three of them.

Michelle let out a long sigh. “It looks like he’s not going to let this go.”

Hearing that, Yvonne couldn’t help but shiver.

She already knew this wasn’t going to end easily, but having someone say it out loud made the fear sink deeper into her chest.

And she still had so many things she hadn’t accomplished yet.

She wasn’t someone who would surrender so easily.

“Mom, don’t worry. I won’t agree to anything.”

“My poor girl… I know you won’t. But Edwin doesn’t think that way.”

Michelle’s voice quivered as she spoke. When had their family ever fallen this low?

Charles hadn’t expected Edwin to be so ruthless either.

“What if… I speak to Mr. Carter Sr.?”

After thinking it through, that was the only solution he could come up with.

If Edwin’s father understood that Yvonne didn’t like him, why force it?

Her happiness should be hers to decide. No one had the right to dictate it, not even him or Michelle.

Their daughter was already an independent adult, someone with her own thoughts and judgment. No one should interfere in her marriage.

“Dad, Mom… I understand what you’re both saying, but are we sure Mr. Carter Sr. will take our side?”

Worry crept into her voice. Something inside her told her things wouldn’t be that simple.

And Edwin was Philip’s youngest son.

No matter what, wouldn’t a father naturally protect his own child?

Hearing this, even Charles faltered.

He hadn’t thought of it that way before, but now that Yvonne brought it up, it was hard to ignore the possibility.

Michelle, however, remained unfazed.

She gave a small, confident clap and said, “You’re worrying too much. Mr. Carter Sr.’s always been a fair man. If he weren’t, the Carter family wouldn’t have stayed on top for this many years.”

“And there’s Lucas too. He’ll step in,” Charles added, looking at Yvonne. “He’s always known you like him. He wouldn’t want to watch you get pushed into a fire pit.”
