Chapter 192 We Lost Ms. Spencer 

Whitney froze mid–told, herbunds clutching a blouse as Westley’s enraged voice blared through the phone. 

“Mr. Howard Senior personally came to call off the engagement! What the hell did you do to make him so angry? Do you realize what this means? Without the marriage, the spencer family is finished! You’re trying to minus, aren’t you, you ungrateful bral 

Her heart raced at the unexpected news. She Minked, trying to process. “You’re saying Grandpa himself came to break it off?”

westley formed. 

furious about Stella’s scandal with Emily, Rebecca faced Stella to move to Solaria under the guise of “meeting a new suitor. But everyone knew it was just a way to sweep the messunder the nig. With her sister out of the picture, Westley had timed all his hopes onto Whitney, banking everything on her marriage to Damian to revive the Sprinos family 

But now, even that was shipping through his fingen. 

When he left, Mr. Howard Senior said, “It was my mistake. They’re just not a good match It’s better to call it off now” And then he had the audacity to tell me to stop interfering with the younger generation!” 

Whitney could almost see Westley’s face, red with sage, as he paced hack and faith in his office. 

“You’re going to march over to the Howard residence right now and fix this Apologize, grovel do whatever it takes You hear me? if you don’t, you’ll drag this 

His shouting felt like nails against her skall, she pulled the phone away from her ear, waiting for him to eat himsel 

When the line finally quieted, she jepbedicalmly, “tcan’t. I’m leaving for a business trip. We’ll talk about this when I’m back 

“A business trip? Are you insane? Do you think your job is more important than saving this family?” 

Whitney didn’t bother responding. She ended the call and tossed her phone onto the bed. 

As she drove to the office, her mind chumed. Why did Elijab call off the engagement? 

Herthoughts dufted back to his parting words: “If you don’t want to come, don’t make excuses. Just tell me.” 

Had he anticipated this? Did he already know she had no intention of marrying Damian? 

Ared light forced her to slow down. Her fingers tapped restlessly on the steering wheel. 

The engagement had been her biggest obstacle. With it dissolved, she finally had her treedom. Did she still need to send the report to the authorities? 

Herchest tightened at the thought of Grandpa. He’d always treated her like family, shielding her even when others didn’t. Maybe this was her chance to repay him. 

If she handed the evidence to him directly, he could decide how to handle Damlan. It would protect the Howard name while ensuring justice was served. 

Yes, she decided. That was what she’d do after the trip. 

Amy was already waiting in her car at the office, with an impatient look on her face. 

“Hop in. We’re taking my car,” Amy said, gesturing to the passenger seat of her sleek BMW 

Whitney secured her own car and climbed in “How long will we be in Riverport?” 

“past a day,” Amy replied, pulling out of the lot. 

As they hit the highway, Whitney sent Yvette a quick text letting her how she’d be away. 

They stopped at a quiet rest area a few hours into the drive. 

“I need the restroom,” Amy said, parking the car. 

Whatney replied, unbuckling ber saratbelt. 

The restroom was nearly deserted–there were no lines and no noise. As Whitney entered, she heard the sound of water running. Amy was already at the sink 

By the time Whitney finished, the sink was empty, water still gushing from the faucet. She turned it off, confused.
