When Tessa got the call from Yanis, she had just left the hospital.
The temperature outside was just a few degrees below freezing. She got into her car and turned on the heater before answering the call from an unfamiliar number. "Hello?"
Yanis' voice was desperate. "Tessa, please, can you come to the hospital and see Zachary? He tried to kill himself because of you. The doctors barely saved him, but they say he has no will to live.
"I was wrong before, and I'm sorry. But please, can you help him? He is my only son!"
Tessa was stunned. "What do you mean by killing himself?"
She just couldn't make sense of it—suicide and Zachary didn't belong in the same sentence. He wasn't the kind of person who would ever do something like that.
Yanis sobbed uncontrollably. She forced herself to calm down and asked, "Did Zachary come to see you last night?"
Tessa replied, "Yeah."
Yanis burst into tears again. "He collapsed in the snow that night. When I visited him in the hospital today, I caught him trying to end his life by slitting his wrists! What did you do to him? Why would he do this?"
Tessa frowned. "What could I have possibly done to him?"
Tears streamed down Yanis' face. "I used to look down on you because I didn't know you were the Yates family's heiress. I admit I was shallow, and I'm sorry for that.
"But please, I'm begging you. Can you come to the hospital to see Zachary? The doctors saved him, but he has no will to live. He just won't wake up, so please try talking to him."
Tessa said, "Sorry. This has nothing to do with me."
Her words instantly sent Yanis into a rage.

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....
