Love Unbreakable

Chapter 512 Making a Deal (Part One) Henley observed Raegan's clear yet restrained eyes, sensing a hint of tenderness in his heart, but it wasn't sufficient to sway his ambitions.

Having endured the cruel torture of his mentally unstable mother since he was young, Henley grasped the significance of power. He knew that only by clinging to power could he attain everything he wanted, even women.

Henley said bluntly, "I already told you it wasn't me. But I might have an idea where she is." Raegan's thoughts were all over the place. She didn't have the energy to figure out who was involved. Her only focus was on bringing Janey back.®

"Please, Tell me..." Her eyes, clear but filled with tears, begged, "Please, just tell me." Henley's lips twitched a bit. "You're not very convincing when you beg," he remarked.

"Thud!" Raegan dropped to her knees promptly.

"I know it's my fault. I shouldn't have upset you. Please..." Her eyes fixed on Henley with determination as she pleaded, "Please, bring Janey back to me..." Raegan was willing to do anything for Janey. Every second was crucial.

Otherwise, who knew what those monsters might do to Janey...

"You!" Henley was not pleased but rather furious. Here Raegan was, kneeling before him, surely ruining the image he had just built up. Others

would simply assume he was pressuring her.

"Stand up!" Henley commanded, pulling her up by the arm. "Raegan, don't test my patience!" Henley dragged Raegan to a hidden corner where they couldn't be seen.

Raegan didn't resist and simply said, "Just give Janey back to me..." "Is that the only thing you can say?" Henley narrowed his gaze.

Henley might look like a scholar, but when his expression turned cold, an unexplainable darkness clouded his features. Especially those eyes concealed behind golden-rimmed glasses, like a cunning fox hiding in the shadows.

Beneath his sophisticated exterior, there lay a dangerous appeal, the kind one would find in a modern-day

"gentleman rogue." "What is it that you truly want?" Raegan's eyes were red, her self- control stretched to its breaking point, itching to rip this cunning man apart.

"What do I want?" Gently lifting her chin, Henley offered, "Remain by my side..." Raegan felt a chill. Holding her disgust, she asked, "What about Miss Holmes from Manning?" Matilda Holmes had been engaged to Henley for two weeks.

Alexis set up the engagement, thinking it was a suitable match for Henley, given his status.

Matilda'ss family, renowned for their generosity, had an excellent reputation and were an ideal match.

Henley, charming and good-looking,

had swiftly captured Matilda's affection.

Despite the video incident, Matilda stepped up to explain it was just a misunderstanding, showing complete faith in Henley. She was so infatuated that it was like she was under a spell.

"Raegan..." Henley's lips formed a slight smile, his voice husky. "You should understand, whoever I marry, they can never take your place in my heart." Raegan felt sick to her stomach. He desired her as his secret lover, kept in the shadows.

The longing in Henley's eyes as he gazed at Raegan was evident as he whispered, "Just stay by my side, Raegan. You won't have to worry about anything. I'll look after you..." At that moment, Raegan wished she

could slap Henley hard across the face.

How could someone speak such offensive words without a second thought? His audacity was beyond belief! Despite her instinctive repulsion, Raegan's face remained unreadable, showing no signs of emotion, a submission that often appealed to men.

Henley softly laid his hands on her shoulders, whispering in a rough voice, "Don't worry. Once you're with me, I'll make sure you and the child are safe.

Even though Janey isn't mine, I won't let her suffer." Raegan felt nauseous and disgusted listening to Henley's words. He seemed to be saying, "See, I'm even ready to accept your child despite everything.

Isn't that enough?" For the first time, Raegan saw how far

human wickedness could go, watching it sink repeatedly.

Surprisingly, Raegan didn't push back.

She gazed directly into his eyes and whispered, "If you truly love me, Henley, 1 need the truth. Did you abduct Janey?" Henley was caught off guard by her question. It was the first instance Raegan hadn't ignored his declarations of love, which delighted him. He softly ruffled her hair and whispered gently, "I didn't do it." At such a dangerous moment, he wouldn't do something so reckless.

Raegan analyzed his face to make sure he wasn't lying and then looked away.

Henley appreciated her obedient behavior and said gently, "Come over to my place tonight..." As Henley eagerly reached out to draw

her close, Raegan sidestepped him. His face immediately turned dark.

Raegan's face showed a blend of emotions as she said, "Henley, I need some time to think..." She remained distant, but the typical tension between them was noticeably missing. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Henley observed her for a moment before letting out a chuckle. "Take your time, but remember, the crucial period for finding someone is forty-eight hours. Time is running out..." Raegan's face went white with this reminder.

Henley pulled her close, speaking softly. "Why hesitate? I've promised to take care of you. My heart has belonged to you and only you for so long..." Raegan trembled under his touch.

"Fine..." Henley, pleased yet not wanting to overwhelm her, gently turned her face toward him, gazing at her affectionately. "I'll give you time...

But don't take too long, alright?" Exhaustion was evident in Raegan's eyes as she gave a soft nod.

Henley gazed at her lovingly and whispered gently, "Do you want me to take you home?" Raegan refused, "I prefer to be alone." Henley didn't push and chuckled softly. "Alright." Despite Raegan's current resistance, they had plenty of time ahead of them. He was confident that she would eventually see him as her only option. Manipulating others was second nature to him.

Walking through the company corridor together, Henley and Raegan

unexpectedly bumped into Matilda, who was searching for Henley. Seeing him, she paused before saying, "Henley..." Then, Matilda looked at Raegan, a hint of warning in her eyes, considering Raegan's attractive figure and fragile appearance, which naturally prompted sympathy.

Matilda hadn't encountered Raegan before and was clueless about her identity. "Henley, who is she?" she asked.

Henley replied calmly, "My sister-in- law." Sister-in-law... The very woman from the scandalous video! Matilda immediately stepped forward, gripping Henley's arm as if to mark her presence. "Hi there." Raegan could hardly manage a smile

and barely acknowledged Matilda'ss greeting. She swiftly made an excuse to depart, leaving the two.
