Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook -
Chapter 2136
After all, Henley had funneled substantial amounts through financial gaps during his tenure at the Dixon Group, then under Alexis’ control.
Now, even if the Dixon Group possessed incriminating evidence, they couldn’t touch Henley since Alexis had assumed full responsibility for all associated crimes.
While Henley’s reputation was tarnished at home, overseas he was celebrated as a distinguished young entrepreneur.
Meanwhile, Alexis languished in prison, still hoping Henley would come to his aid.
It was a futile hope, as even if he decayed behind bars, that callous Henley would never come to rescue him.
Raegan, exasperated by Henley’s arrogance, confronted him.
“You mistreated a woman who truly loved you.
”
Henley paused, picturing Matilda’s innocent expression.
Of all the women he had encountered, she was indeed the most sincere and selfless.
If not for Raegan, he might have genuinely cared for her.
He gave a wry smile.
“Raegan, I don’t love her.
I only love you.
”
Raegan recoiled, disgusted.
“Just because you don’t love her, you think you can trample over her feelings? Mr.
Brooks, your values are truly unacceptable!” She pointed at the door and said firmly, “Please leave now, or I’ll call security.
”
While she spoke, she discreetly searched the desk for her phone to call the police.
However, Henley saw her movements reflected in the mirror and smirked slightly.
“Raegan, I didn’t come here to hurt you.
I just wanted to see you.
There’s no need to be so tense.
”
Unconvinced, Raegan pointed sternly at the door, her expression icy.
“Are you going to leave or not?”
Since Henley had seen her reaching for the phone, she saw no point in concealing her actions.
She picked up her phone and dialed the emergency number.
Before the call could connect, Henley rushed over, snatched the phone from her hand, and disconnected the call.
“Ah! Help!” Raegan screamed, dropped her phone, and took several steps back to create distance between herself and this menacing figure.

Since Henley had entered so boldly and remained undisturbed for so long, it meant he had likely neutralized the security at the door.
Raegan realized that a direct confrontation was not the smartest approach at this moment.
Lacking the physical strength to overpower a man, her wits were her only defense.
With a casual toss, Henley threw her phone into a cup of water on the desk.
He looked at Raegan with a smirk and proposed, “Raegan, cancel your wedding and leave with me.
”
A wave of panic washed over Raegan as she stared back at Henley.
“You’re insane! If you try to take me hostage, you won’t even make it out of this venue.
”
Henley laughed off her response.
“Raegan, we clearly love each other.
It’s quite understandable that you run away during a wedding you don’t want, right?”
His words sent a chill through Raegan.
She knew he must have prepared everything.
If she vanished, the media would likely report it as a romantic elopement.
Such a narrative could severely affect the Dixon Group’s stock prices.
Henley’s ultimate aim was still to undermine the Dixon Group.
Even if he couldn’t destabilize the company, merely tarnishing its reputation was satisfactory for him.
Raegan responded with fierce determination, “Your scheme won’t succeed.
I’ve set a timed post on Twitter that will go live if the wedding doesn’t proceed as planned.
Everyone will know something happened to me, and I’ve asked the people of Ambrosia to help spread the word.
