Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband

Chapter 1741:

Corrie stood there, her hands planted firmly on her hips, struggling to process the humiliation of being dressed down by someone so much younger. It was downright unbearable.

She couldn’t contain her rage. Back in her office, she began smashing everything in sight. After wrecking everything she could, she summoned her assistant and spent the next three hours berating her.

The moment the assistant stepped out of the office, she broke down in tears. Word quickly spread throughout the company that Corrie had berated her assistant for hours. Employees began whispering behind her back, murmuring that she was merely holding a position without making any real contributions and was unfit for the role.

When those words reached Corrie’s ears, her anger flared even hotter. As the end of the workday approached, she grabbed her phone and called Brook. However, he didn’t answer. She called him multiple times before he finally answered, his tone laced with anger.

Fuming, she snapped, “Brook Owen, have you lost your mind? Why the hell are you firing me? I’m your future wife! How could you do this to me?”

With an impatient sigh, Brook snapped, “What’s the big deal if you get fired? You’re not some penniless woman. As the daughter of the Bates family, you shouldn’t be acting like you have no choice but to work.”

Corrie’s grip tightened around the phone. “Absolutely not! I can’t lose this job. Do whatever it takes to keep me at Owen Group!”

Brook let out a lazy sigh. “And what exactly do you expect me to do? Jayden made the call to fire you. You know as well as I do that once he makes a decision, no one can change it.”

Corrie’s temper flared. “So you’re just going to sit back and let him do this? We’re an item now! By firing me, he’s humiliating you. Are you even a man?”

Brook hummed in thought before replying, “You make a valid point. But I can always have Camille take your place at the company.”

Corrie froze, blindsided. She couldn’t help but ask, “What did you just say? Are you serious? You would actually let that woman work at the company?”

Brook chuckled and replied, “Why not? She’s eager to learn and will do whatever I ask. Moreover, she is more capable than you.”

Corrie’s breath hitched as realization dawned on her. She asked through gritted teeth, “So you knew Jayden was going to fire me all along? You didn’t stop it because you wanted to bring Camille to join the company. That was your plan, wasn’t it?”

Brook burst into laughter. “Well, you figured it out. I was starting to think you never would.”

Corrie was livid. Her whole body trembled as she sucked in a slow, deep breath, trying to keep herself from completely losing it. “So, that’s it? You want to break off our engagement. Does your family even approve of this?”

Brook replied, “Even if they don’t, they’ll have to accept it. Aside from Jayden, I’m the only one who can support the Owen Group.”

Corrie felt that she had been played for a fool by Brook and Jayden, but no matter how hard she searched, she couldn’t find a shred of evidence to prove it.

Forcing herself to stay composed, she clenched her fists and shouted into the phone, “I won’t let you have your way. You will never marry anyone but me!”noveldrama

Brook scoffed. “We’ll see about that. We’ll soon find out whether my bride will be you or Camille.”

As soon as the call ended, Corrie let out a piercing scream right in the middle of the street.
