Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO novel Chapter 1736

“The Carters all know exactly what Edwin is like.”

Yvonne went silent.

For a moment, she didn’t know what to say.

And deep down, she didn’t believe Lucas would help her either.

She had already fallen out with him, and she hadn’t gone back to take her place as a judge.

That alone made it clear that she and Lucas had drawn a line between them.

Honestly, if she were in his shoes, she wouldn’t help someone who had done the same.

So, she had no real confidence he would step in.

But the moment she thought of Edwin’s frightening temper, she forced the panic back down.

“It’s fine… I’ll think about it.”

It was all she could manage.

“My poor girl, you really have suffered.”

Michelle wrapped an arm around her and murmured, “When all of this settles, I’ll take you away for a little break.”

“No need. I still have things to handle at the studio.”

Feeling the warmth of Michelle’s embrace steadied her a little.

No matter what, her family was on her side, and that alone eased the fear sitting in her chest.

If she had been fighting alone this whole time, none of it would have meant anything.

But now, seeing her parents’ attitude, she could finally breathe.

And with that, she knew that she would fight Edwin all the way to the end.

She never expected her father to say something like that for her sake.

All her life, she had believed he cared more about reputation and advantage, which was why she never dared to speak to him about these matters.

She thought she could handle Edwin on her own.

But only when he showed up at their door did she realize how naïve she had been.

Without her family, she truly couldn’t deal with something this big.

With her parents behind her, her path suddenly felt steadier and safer.

And hearing Charles declare he would risk everything for her shook her entire worldview.

“I understand, Dad.”

Yvonne sniffed, pulling her emotions back under control, though her heart felt painfully full.
