I turned back and glared at Dahlia, my voice shaking with anger. “Dahlia, are you even human? After three years together, this is what you do to me?”
She gave a cold laugh, her eyes full of calculation. “Love? What is that compared to my future? And you’re the one who leaked the trade secrets, yet you still refuse to admit it?”
“I didn’t!”
“The evidence is right there, and you’re still trying to deny it?”
She pointed toward the door. “Bring him here.”
I fought with everything I had, but they forced me into a chair.
“Dahlia, you’ve been fooled by Reid! I’m Willa Jensen’s real son! If you hurt me, my mother will never forgive you!”
The room went quiet for a moment before bursting into laughter.
Dahlia slapped me lightly across the face, smirking. “You mean the Chairwoman is your mother?”
She gave a mocking laugh. “Don’t be ridiculous. I see Reid riding in President Jensen’s car every day. Who else would have that right besides her son?”
“Since you refuse to drink nicely and insist on being punished, don’t blame us for being harsh.”
Dahlia grabbed my chin, lifted a glass, and poured the liquor straight down my throat.
“Drink it!”
