Rebecca sat on the sofa, with a pile of invitations spread out on the coffee table.
Zachary poured a glass of water and asked, “Why aren’t you asleep yet?”
Rebecca gestured for him to sit. “Can we talk for a moment?”
Zachary sat down and asked, “About what?”
Rebecca inquired, “Have you really made up your mind?”
Zachary replied with a soft “Yes.”
“You aren’t willing to wait a month. You’re using such an extreme method just for her. Are you willing to do anything, even if it goes against your principles?”
Zachary leaned back against the sofa, raising a hand to massage his temples
In reality, he glanced upstairs.
He replied coolly, “I broke up with her. It’s not for her.”
Rebecca thought she misheard. “What did you say?”
Zachary didn’t repeat himself. He asked, “What else is there to discuss? If there’s nothing, I’m going to bed.”
Rebecca stopped him, still unable to fully believe it. “Then what about the wedding…”
“Proceed as usual.‘

He left those two words, lacking warmth, before heading upstairs to his room.
Rebecca remained motionless on the sofa.
She stared blankly at the pile of invitations on the coffee table.
When the Collins family learned about Zachary’s wedding plans with Nina, they were naturally against it.
Even if the wedding was fake, once it was announced, it would affect Zachary’s future prospects for a suitable wife.
That was not what they desired.
Now, they agreed to this matter with the hope that Zachary could break
up
with Jane.
They all believed Jane couldn’t tolerate Zachary having a wedding with someone else, even if it was just a ruse.
Since they had just broken up, they were still trying to process it.

Chapter 801
At breakfast, Sir Collins also expressed the same doubt.
“Have they really broken up?”
Rebecca nodded. “He locked himself in his room and hasn’t even eaten.”
“It was the girl who broke up with him,” added Eric.
This was indeed the outcome the Collins family wanted, so there was little else to discuss.
“Why hasn’t Nina come down for breakfast?”
Rebecca replied, “She’s been tired from choosing a wedding dress these past few days. After all, she’s pregnant, so I had Julie bring her some food.”
Actually, the Collins family still had some affection for Nina.
She was smart and quite scheming.
They had watched her grow up and knew her well.
It was just that her background was lacking.
Otherwise, they would have supported the marriage between Nina and Zachary. “Has Zachary said anything about canceling the wedding?” Sir Collins asked. Rebecca answered, “I waited for him last night. He said he wouldn’t cancel it.” For a moment, Sir Collins‘ cloudy eyes sharpened, but he ultimately said nothing.
Jane slept until she woke up naturally.
She lingered in bed for a while before getting up to find something to eat in the kitchen. Seeing the extra items in the kitchen, she remembered Zachary cooking there.
She shook her head, took a deep breath, and went to grab her phone to order takeaway.
