Tyrone said, “Mom, the fact that I’ve reached this position and can keep those old foxes on the board in line means I have my own methods. I’ve dealt with rivals like Mr. Vic before. If Mr. Vic insists on going head–to–head with us, I’m ready to fight all the way.”
He paused for a moment, then added, “But I don’t agree to the divorce.”
Ralph slammed the table. “The Winters have stood strong for a hundred years. Even if we lose a couple more massive projects, it won’t shake our core. This is the corporate battlefield–if the Websters really want a fight, Tyrone, don’t show them any mercy!”
Tyrone quietly watched Virginia’s reaction.
Then he said, “Dad, Mr. Vic and Mom are still half–siblings. This whole thing started because of me. I’ll try to handle it peacefully.”
Virginia was surprised he said that.
In the past, Ralph had always taught him that business came before family.
The Winters men believed that kindness doesn’t win wars, loyalty doesn’t make money, feelings don’t build success, and being “too nice” doesn’t get you power.
The Winters men were all selfish–their principles always came before emotions.
They were calm and ruthless when it came to business.
But when it came to feelings, every single one of them was a total idiot.
At noon, during her lunch break, Aella got a call from Tyrone and left the hospital.
He didn’t say anything, just pulled her into the car.
Aella could tell something was off with him again.
She pouted a little and waited for him to speak first.
Tyrone stared straight at her and said, “Didn’t expect you to be that capable.”
Aella couldn’t tell if he was praising her or scolding her.
“Can you just say what you mean?”

Tyrone asked, “Mr. Vic stole a ten–billion–dollar project from the Winter Group just to force me to divorce you. Did you know about that?”
Aella’s heart skipped a beat.
She just mentioned it casually, but Victor actually used a huge project to pressure Tyrone into a divorce.
How was she supposed to repay that huge favor?
From her reaction, Tyrone could tell she had no idea.
He said, “The Winters have been one of Vleka’s top families for a century. That reputation
didn’t come from nothing. If Mr. Vic really wants to start a business war against us, he won’t just face the Winters; he’ll face every family behind us. Is that what you want to see?”
Aella felt uneasy.
She knew Tyrone was right. Everything he said was true.
But she still didn’t want to give in.
“Tyrone,” she said, “it’s already gone this far. You might as well just divorce me. It’s better for everyone.”
Tyrone grabbed Aella’s arm and pulled her close.
He looked her straight in the eyes. “I know I let you down, but I have my limits–I never actually cheated on you. I’ll accept any way you punish me, but I won’t agree to a divorce.”
Since Tyrone wouldn’t budge even after all this, Aella was at a total loss.
She snapped, “Fine, Tyrone. If you’re not scared of me going wild, cheating on you, and making you raise someone else’s kid–then don’t divorce me!”
Tyrone’s face was dark with anger as he glared at Aella. “Don’t you dare!”
Aella stood her ground. “I’ll do what I want–I have the freedom!”
Tyrone’s temples were throbbing with anger. He said, biting off the words: “Aella, if you sleep with someone else, I’ll break your legs.”
Aella put her leg over Tyrone’s. “Go ahead and break them now. If I can’t get a divorce right
I don’t want to live. What do I care about legs?”
away,
Tyrone’s chest hurt from anger. “Get out of the car.”

Chapter 257 Accident
Aella got out. Tyrone told the driver to go.
She stood there, watching the expensive car take off quickly, feeling totally unsettled.
Just because of one comment from her, Mason was handling her divorce case, and Victor started a business war to pressure the Winters.
She couldn’t tell if more players would jump in yet.
Aella calmed herself down by taking big, steady breaths.
