?Chapter 763:


    “Fine! Christina, you really know how to work your connections,” Brendon snapped bitterly, hurling his frustration at her like a de.


    “I really appreciate yourpliment,” Christina replied with a smug smirk, letting him witness firsthand what having powerful connections looked like. With the three men standing firmly behind her, she folded her arms across her chest and delivered her final blow. “I’ll give you a week. No more. I want those five percent shares transferred to me. Otherwise…”


    She gestured effortlessly toward the three men behind her. “These kind gentlemen will be more than happy to help me pursue justice and let the world know about the Dawson Group’s little integrity problem.”


    Brendon was so enraged that he looked like he might faint on the spot. While he still cared about her, she’d rallied outsiders to publicly disgrace him like this. Sure, the Dawson Group had solid backing, but it was no match for any one of these three. And worse—they were working as a unit. If he chose to dig in his heels now, even the powerful figure backing him might jump ship.


    After thinking it through, Brendon clenched his jaw and gave in. “I’ll contact you within the week and transfer the shares to your name,” he muttered through gritted teeth.


    “Good,” Christina replied with a sweet, victorious smile.


    Brendon’s expression soured further, his insides churning with mounting frustration. What a maddening ex-wife he had!


    “Ah!” Suddenly, a piercing scream shattered the air, snapping everyone’s attention in its direction.


    The voice hit Brendon like a lightning bolt—hauntingly familiar, impossible to ignore. He spun around instinctively, only to find Ynda crumpled on the ground. The scream hade from Katie.

    Katie and Ynda had been trailing Brendon, hoping to pull him away, but out of nowhere, Ynda had copsed.


    Brendon couldn’t focus on anything else at that moment and rushed toward her immediately.


    Christina watched the frantic blur of his movements, her gaze growing stormy with emotion. No woman could ever take Ynda’s ce in his heart.


    Even after three years of taking care of Brendon, Christina hadn’t received the slightest hint of affection from him—not even the smallest warmth, let alone the attention any other woman might receive.


    At first, Christina had assumed Brendon’s quietness and aloofness around her were due to his reserved nature, but over time, she saw it clearly—he could be talkative and tender around the one he loved. And the one who had imed his heart was Ynda.


    Brendon swept Ynda into his arms and dashed for the exit, panic etched across his face.


    Christina stood there, dazed. It wasn’t jealousy that hollowed her out. It was something deeper—an ache born from memories she wished she could forget. During their three years of marriage, she had once fainted, though not entirely unconscious. Her eyes had fluttered open with effort, just enough to see Brendon standing there like a statue,pletely unmoved.
