NovelEnglishClint was in Drakonia.
He had spent a long tgoing down the direction where Rainie had vanished in search of her, but he could not find her.
He could not find her even after an entire day of searching. He panted as he stood in the busy streets.
“Where is she... Where is she...” Clint murmured to himself, immense panic washing over him as he watched the pedestrians brush
past him.
Clint had actually heard what Rainie said last night, but he had been so out of it that he thought he was dreaming. If things really
were the way Rainie had put it, it would be nothing but death waiting for her upon her return...
An image of the woman's reddened eyes flashed to the forefront of Clint’s mind, and the things she said echoed in his mind too.
Zaden Florentine, deputy president of Dominionmerce, was a businessman to his very core. He was so insane that he was
willing to put up his children as amodity to be traded.
Rainie had ulterior motives for approaching Clint in the first place.

She dried her eyes. That night, she finally let out her secrets and told Clint everything.
Rainie had approached Clint so that Dominionmerce could collaborate with one of the businesses the Melton family owned.
That was right, a mere collaboration. Zaden was willing to sacrifice his daughter's happiness so that she would be collateral
for the collaboration.
Approaching Clint and marrying into his family... That was the task given to Rainie, and it did not matter that she was interested in
someone else—her childhood sweetheart.
Whenever she felt suffocated by the chamber ofmerce and her father, her childhood sweetheart would always be by her side.
She slowly began falling for him.
However, her father noticed what was going on and threatened her to force her into agreeing to win over Clint.
However, things did not work out the way she had hoped... Rainie did not have a knack for dealing with emotions and had no idea
what she should do.
Despite her eous looks, she still failed her first attempt. She was at a loss as to what she should do but chose to return to the
chamber ofmerce and her father out of worry for her childhood sweetheart.
Yet... What awaited her was her father’s whipping. She was also banned from eating or stepping out of the house...
He abandoned Rainie at a road that had to be taken to get to the Clint residence and sent over cars to create a blockage at the
junctions.
Sure enough, things went just as he planned... Clint and Rainie met again.
As for everything that happened after that, Clint understood it all now.
Thus, she left. At the end of the day, she refused to be a tool at her father’s disposal.
“Stupid woman!” Clint called out as he continued weaving his way through the busy streets.
He knew that the woman was determined to head back, and she knew death was inevitable.

She had once told him that even if her father was against it, she would rather die than betray her childhood sweetheart.
She had had enough of her insane father’s instructions. She wanted to make decisions for herself this time...
Clint’s phone began ringing.
He hurriedly picked up the phone.
“Hello? Gabe, did you manage to find anything?”
“It's me." A wizened-sounding voice rang out from the other end of the line.
Clint was stunned. Then, in a tone of disbelief, he asked, “Dad?”
Clint understood what his father meant. After all, it would not be wise to have a falling out with Dominionmerce.
“But... But...” Clint felt a tumultuous wave of emotions wash over him. Deep down, he asked himself if... things should end this
way.
