The words were too cruel for Zachary to bear. Every time he thought about it, his heart hurt so much that he felt like he could die.
He couldn't bear to speak it into existence. It was at that moment that Zachary realized how deep his feelings for Tessa ran and how possessive he was over her.
In the last two decades, Zachary had never felt as hopeless as he did now. A tear rolled down his cheek. Zachary was so upset that he thought he would shatter at the slightest touch.
The winter draft carried a chilling cold that seeped deep into the bone. Zachary stood amidst the cold breeze, eyes filled with despair as he gazed at Tessa. He looked like he was going to be blown away by the wind in the next second.
Tessa tightened her jaw and steeled her expression. The anger in her eyes was clear to see. "Zachary, we broke up on amicable terms. It was the best thing I could have done for you. If you continue to harass me, don't blame me for not showing you any mercy."
Tears glistened in Zachary's eyes. The spot where he got punched by Stephen was beginning to bruise, the skin there turning an angry red.
"No," Zachary said hoarsely. "Tessy, it was my fault. I'm begging you. Please come back to me. I'm begging you. Tessy, please…"
Zachary had completely discarded his pride. He didn't need it anymore. His voice was pitched low as he begged Tessa while sobbing like a child.
Tessa could only sigh at the pitiful sight. She rubbed her temples, sounding exhausted as she said, "Zachary, what's the point in doing all this? I'm tired. You have to let me go."
"I'm sorry, Tessy. I can't do that," Zachary choked out with bloodshot eyes.

Whoa! Hahahahahaha! Go, Sophia! Burn, stupid Rowena! Lol...
Sooo~ Chapters 310-318 were just a repeat of Jacqueline’s punishment, official expulsion from the Jacobson family, and arrest. With few changes since Tessa and Stephen are not together this time. So Tessa didn’t witness how Jacqueline was tortured at Stephen’s base, though at least Tessa was still called over and witnessed how Stephen officially expelled Jacqueline from the Jacobson family and how Stephen’s subordinate made Jacqueline grovel in front of Tessa. Lol. I hope Jacqueline’s really out of the story now....
Also a lot of chapters were missing here. I went back to the application where it was originally published that’s why i know that this site is not reliable...
Fucked up book! Seems like the authors were not talking to each other. LOL. Yes authors, because of the inconsistencies....
The story went downhill after pg200 1. Why is Jacqueline back… she was expelled from the family already 2. There was no reason for Rowena to be mad at Tessa 3. The Jacobson already knows that Stephen wants to get back witb Tessa after they deal with James, so why is Rowena pushing hard? LOL 4. The family also knows that Stephen and Nancy have some sort of deal. The story was okay from page 1-199, but clearly it’s a thumbs down. I can deal with grammatical errors, but story errors is just different now....
This is funny! Jacqueline was also the culprit why James knew that nancy was Stephen's cousin. So, really, what happened when steohen tortured jacqueline hahah...
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....
