Forced Into Marriage: My Husband’s Too Mean novel Chapter 228

In the end, Lindsey put that little hat away and warned the maid not to tell Zayn.

Zayn had been busy during this period. He was always gone before Lindsey woke up and would only return before Lindsey fell asleep.

Lindsey had never asked about his work, but she was concerned for his health.

That day when Lindsey woke up, Zayn was still there. When he saw that she was awake, he went over and kissed her on the forehead. “I’ll be home late tonight, so you should rest early. Don’t wait up for me.”

Lindsey just woke up and her brain was still in a blur. Her voice was soft as she asked, "Have you been busy lately?"

"Mm." Zayn pulled the covers over her properly and said, "It’ll be better after these few days. You can sleep a little more."

Lindsey was indeed a bit sleepy and buried her head under the covers. "Okay then, come back soon."

"Mm."

Zayn had always been a man of his word. In Lindsey’s dream, the man also said “mm” gently in a deep voice next to her ear.

That day after work, Zayn went straight to a private clubhouse.

The interior of the elegantly decorated clubhouse was familiar to society’s high dwellers. Zayn frowned and quickly walked to one of the doors, which someone held open for him.

Liam Wilford had already arrived and was drinking a glass of wine. When he saw Zayn enter, he raised his eyebrows. "Mr. Guggenheim, you’re really on time."

The two men sat opposite each other. Zayn did not respond to his words, but he said straightforwardly, "What do you want?"

Liam downed the wine in his glass. "Mr. Guggenheim, what do you mean by this?"

"Literally." Zayn's eyes were cold. “Lindsey no longer owes your family any favors. I’ll help her complete any other agreed transactions between you two. You can have as much money or territory you want. I’ll offer you all of the Guggenheims’ territory in the South Atlantic. How’s that? Just stay away from my wife.”

Liam looked at Zayn meaningfully. After a long time, he suddenly laughed lightly and said, "Mr. Guggenheim, how generous of you."

The two men stared at each other. Zayn's face gradually turned gloomy. After a while, he abruptly got up and walked to the door. He then stopped and had his back to Liam as he said, "This is the end of your entanglement with Lindsey from the past."

The biggest concern for Zayn not making a move against Liam was because Liam and Allie had saved Lindsey’s life.

Zayn remembered more clearly than anyone else their so-called kindness, but he had given Liam many chances. If there were any consequences in the future, Liam asked for it.

He walked out of the clubhouse. The air outside was slightly cool and soothing.

Quentin followed behind Zayn and whispered, "President, what's next?"

"Get Soren to make his move, but don't kill anyone. Just teach Liam a lesson. Those spies we planted before...use them all." Zayn pondered the next step of his plan.

"What do you mean?" Quentin was a little unsure and asked again.

"Make Wilford Corporation disappear from Atlantic City."

Zayn did not want to hurt an already bed-ridden woman, but Liam had stepped over the line. His child nearly died and his wife was injured.

He had given Liam a chance since he saved Lindsey's life, but Liam obviously did not know how to appreciate it.

Quentin was inexplicably excited. Anyone who heard Zayn’s words would be in disbelief. Even though the Wilfords could not compare to the Guggenheims, they were still a behemoth and had plenty of connections. How could Zayn just get rid of them so easily?

Panic instantly took over all of Liam's nerves.

The process of waiting for her news was tormenting. When the call from Germany came, Liam picked it up instantly.

"Sir, the Young Lady is missing."

"What?!" Liam thought he had misheard. His gloomy voice sounded, "Say it again!"

"The Young Lady is missing. Her maid was found unconscious on the ground and there are no traces of struggle at the scene. The surveillance cameras were also destroyed and wiped clean, leaving no clues."

"Idiots!" Liam kicked the wall, but he did not feel any pain. "Find her! Find her immediately! If you can't find her, I'll feed you all to the dogs!"

After yelling like this, Liam became even more anxious. His first thought was that Zayn had taken Sophie. This was Zayn's revenge because he made a move on Lindsey.

However, it occurred to him that it could also be his parents, who had always disagreed with him and Sophie being together and always wanted to break them up...

The thoughts in his head almost overwhelmed him. Liam dared not think about what they would do to Sophie, who was in such poor health.

The feeling of powerlessness swept over Liam.

That same night, Liam took a flight back to Germany.

It was already the next day when Zayn got the news. Liam left in a hurry, leaving a big mess at the company, which gave Zayn an opportunity to attack.

"Keep an eye on Allie Wilford. If she comes looking for Lindsey, don't stop her, but make sure to get someone to follow her every step of the way." Zayn instructed as he flipped through Wilford Corporation's comprehensive evaluation report.
