Swapping a Broken Heart for a New Start novel Chapter 942

Cynthia remembered that condition, but it wasn't for lack of trying. Besides, Dennis was back in Cabinda now, wasn't he? How could Charlotte use this technicality to make her give up the engagement?

“I told you, I went to see Dennis,” Cynthia argued desperately. “But he never gave me a chance to talk to him. Every time I went, he had his staff ask me to leave. What else was I supposed to do? Chain myself to his gate?”

Charlotte watched her emotional outburst, her own expression remaining serene and unmoved. “How you accomplish the task is your business. Compared to all the other girls in Cabinda who admire Dennis, we have already helped you more than enough. The fact remains that you failed to fulfill the agreement. Do you or do you not admit to this?”

Since they wanted to talk about promises, Charlotte was more than happy to counter with one of their own. Cynthia’s hands clenched into fists, her nails digging deep into her flesh. Of course she didn’t want to admit it, but the facts were exactly as Charlotte had stated. All she could do was bite her lip, her face a mask of aggrieved misery.

Charlotte didn’t look at her. She elegantly lifted her teacup, took a sip, and only spoke again when the silence had stretched on. “No response means you admit it. In that case, the matter of the engagement is null and void. Ultimately, you cannot blame us.”
