Tessa raised her knee into Zachary's gut, forcing him to release her with a pained cry. She didn't stop there, though, as she raised her hand and slapped Zachary hard across his face.
Slap! The sound of her palm connecting against his cheek reverberated loud and clear in the hallway.
Tessa's eyes were aflame with fury. She yelled, "Zachary, get away from me! You don't deserve me!"
Her slap was so powerful that it forced Zachary's face to the side. Raising his gaze, he stared at Tessa. The corners of his eyes were beginning to redden, matching the glaringly red handprint on his cheek.
"Tessy, why are you so cruel to me?"
Zachary's voice was soft as he was upset.
Tessa chuckled coldly. Her eyes were filled with hatred. "Do you need to ask why? Heh. It's because you're filthy now. We can never go back to the past."
Staring at him haughtily, she lifted her chin. "A man who doesn't love himself is worse than trash. I'll never go back for the trash I've already discarded."
She didn't give Zachary a chance to respond after saying her piece. Turning, she entered her apartment, slamming her door shut with a loud bang.
Zachary stood outside, staring at the closed door. A deep sorrow swam in his endlessly dark eyes.
"It's because you're filthy now. We can never go back to the past."
Her words were like needles, stabbing deeply and mercilessly into Zachary's heart. It caused his heart to puncture all over, turning it into a nearly unrecognizable lump of flesh.

I wonder how many authors does this book have? Suddenly jacqueline was back and continue to bad mouth tessa. And was stunned that tessa knows her feelings about stephen. And then rowena was freaking mad at tessa too; because there werw multiple instances that tessa sharp-tongued her. 🤣...
What is wrong with the story flow? At chapter 160-164 there’s this whole thing about Stephen revealing in front of all the Jacobsons family members about Jacqueline’s inappropriate feelings towards him and her involvement in murder. There’s even this “Just like that, Jacqueline was officially expelled from the Jacobson family. Stephen then promptly handed her to the authorities.” So I was already glad the bitch is out of the picture. And then suddenly at chapter 236, Jacqueline appears again like nothing happened, still being the adoptive daughter of the Jacobson family and the family being unaware of her feelings for Stephen. Seriously? Doesn’t make sense anymore....
The latest update is just a repetition of the previous chapters...
I don’t like that Stephen is dropping Tessa. They could work together to go after James. But if this happens then I’ll stop reading....
Whats wrong with the typing?? There a lot of weird words...
More frequent updates please...
When will there be more chapters...
