Chapter 712
But just as she passed by him, he grabbed her arm.
Jane pulled back with all her strength but couldn't break free.
Her brows knitted together, clearly annoyed, and her words were not pleasant.
"Zachary, have you no shame?"
Zachary had finished changing and was waiting outside. After a while, he felt that Nina had been inside for too long. Concerned something might be wrong, he walked in.
As he reached the door, he overheard her saying she didn't like him anymore.
In truth, he didn't even know what to say after grabbing her.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
And her words left him feeling completely lost.
Lost...
That word seemed never to have appeared in his life before.
"Jane." After a long silence, he called her name softly.
Jane's gaze was indifferent. "Zachary, don't make me feel that my past affection for you was something disgusting."
Since he Indulged in his true loves actions, there was no need to feign concern for him.
Zachary's jaw tightened slightly, and he couldn't help but grip her arm tighter.
"Let go of Jane!"
Michael had specially bought fresh coconuts and some snacks that Jane loved, which was why he returned a bit late.
"You shouldn't force her every time, haven't you thought about how it might hurt her?"
Michael gripped Zachary's arm. "You might not care, but it pains me to see it. I won't let you treat her like this."
As he spoke, he tried to pry Zachary's hand away.
Zachary simply pulled Jane a bit closer to himself, coldly staring at Michael.
Looking at him like a clown, he said, "With your skills, you think you can be a hero? Pretending to be innocent and obedient, claiming to love her, but isn't it really her connections, resources, and money that attract you?" Those words were harsh and crossed the line.
At that moment, Michael stopped pretending to be gentle and attacked Zachary fiercely.
They could hear the sound of bones cracking.
But Zachary showed no intention of letting go, he countered Michael's grip and twisted hard.
Michael held back a scream, his face flushed and eyes glistening with tears.
In contrast, Zachary remained calm, even after his fingers were slightly twisted and his forearm had a mark from Michael's grip.
"Our matters are not for you to meddle in."
Slap-
The sound of the slap stunned everyone present, except for Jane.
She shook her hand and looked at Zachary with cold eyes. "One slap should be enough for you to understand what I meaning, right?"
Zachary appeared bewildered, releasing Michael and raising his hand to rub the side of his face that had been slapped.
Now, one side still bore a bruise, and the other left a handprint, it was quite symmetrical.
"Zachary!"
Nina stepped forward, eyes filled with concern, her voice soft. "It's swollen, does it hurt?" While speaking, she pulled Zachary away. "Let's go over there, I'll find some ice for you." Zachary remained still, only staring at Jane.
Jane tried to pull her arm back, but his grip felt like a vise.
'Her temper wasn't great, and her patience was growing thin.
After one or two incidents, she was genuinely fed up.
"Zachary, your behavior is really cheap."
At the hotel.
After dinner, I had coaxed Sparrow to sleep.
Just as I was about to get up, I was hugged from behind.
"Honey..."
I had no idea how this guy, so busy every day, had so much energy.
+ shot him a glance. "How about we invite everyone for dinner tonight?"
Frank knew I was changing the subject, his lips lingering on my ear and neck.
He didn't respond to my suggestion.
I turned my head to evade him. "We agreed that we would treat everyone to dinner the night after the wedding, but because Nina was hospitalized, we couldn't do it. Now that everyone is here, um..."
