A Widow's Poison, A Wife's Rebellion novel Chapter 1178

The fallout for the Lynn family was going to be massive.

"The people who caused this mess aren't panicking, so why should I?" Darian replied smoothly.

Tanya stared at him. The people who caused the mess? That was certainly one way to look at it.

"If they love Yulisa so much, they can marry her themselves," he added nonchalantly.

Trying to force her onto him was a losing game. Now his family was furious that he had walked out. But hadn't they considered the consequences of pushing him to the brink? Let them be angry. Darian truly didn't care.

He glanced at Tanya, his voice softening. "Come here. Let me hold you."

Since they had left, Tanya's attitude toward him had thawed significantly. Aside from the initial shock, she was clearly warming up to him again. After all, neither of them had truly believed he would drop everything and run with her.

She stepped forward, and when she was close enough, he pulled her into his lap.

"Do you trust me now?" he asked.

"Your version of taking responsibility is... unique," she admitted.

It was a crazy stunt, but she couldn't deny that seeing him act this way gave her an immense sense of security. If he hadn't been so blindly trusting of Yulisa in the beginning, they never would have ended up in this mess.

"No matter how unique it is, it was the only path we had left," he murmured.

The only path. She knew he was right. Before he made this move, she had seen their relationship as a dead end. She had never believed a mature, powerful CEO who controlled the entirety of Lynn Group would do something so recklessly impulsive.

Yet, he had. He had defied everyone's expectations.
