Chapter 14 Blackmailing

• Jason's mind wandered back to the fateful arguments they had a year ago, the memories still etched vividly in his mind. He recalled the determination in his daughter's eyes, the fiery passion in her voice, as she stood firmly against the arranged marriage he had planned for her.
• "No, Father, I won't do it!" Jane exclaimed, her voice trembling with emotion. "I won't marry some man I've never met, just to secure the family's business interests. I won’t involve myself in any arranged marriage whether you like it or not. I won’t be involved in your business deals of using your daughter for your own selfish gain.”
• How dare you talk to me like that? If you don’t fulfil my wish, I will disown you as my daughter. You won’t be getting any of my properties as a Lockwood. The man shouted as his voice shook with anger.
