His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 145

Zachary's father, Matthew Gomez, snapped, "I can't believe you tried to kill yourself over a woman! How did I end up with such a useless son?"

Yanis shot Matthew a glare. "Can you stop yelling at him? He just survived! Do you actually want him to die?"

Matthew had dark circles under his eyes, a clear sign that he'd been swamped for days and hadn't had a proper night's sleep.

He snapped, "It's all your fault for spoiling him! Thanks to you, his brain is filled with nothing but women! And now he even tried to kill himself over one? What a shame!"

His words set Yanis off. She shot Matthew a glare and retorted, "Thanks to me? Isn't he your son too? Have you ever actually been there for him? If anything, you're the one who failed as a father!"

Andy quickly tried to stop them. "Mr. Gomez, Mrs. Gomez, please don't fight. Zachary just woke up and needs rest."

Zion chimed in. "Yes, please calm down."

Just then, Tessa's voice came through Zion's phone.

Zachary froze and stared at it. "Did Tessa call you?"

The emptiness in his eyes was replaced by a flicker of hope.

Yet, Zion just scratched his head and said, "Nope. The doctor said you haven't woken up because you have no will to live. So, I came up with something."

With that, he turned his phone toward Zachary. On the screen, a video taken at one of Tessa's birthday parties was playing. It was from when they had just gotten together.

Back then, Wendy was still abroad, and he wasn't juggling multiple women. He had truly loved Tessa, and she had loved him back with all her heart.

Their life was just as sweet as that of any ordinary couple. They would go on dates, take pictures and record videos to capture their happy moments together.

In the video, Tessa was wearing a beautiful dress with delicate makeup. She held a birthday cake in her hands, smiling brightly at the camera.

She said, "Zachary, thank you for spending my birthday with me. I'm really happy today. This is my first time spending my birthday with a boyfriend—it feels so special."

"He's the one who brought in investors for the company! Without him, we would've gone bankrupt a long time ago!"

Matthew's face remained grim, but he didn't say another word. He just stared at Zachary for a moment before walking away.

Zachary was completely mesmerized, replaying Tessa's video on the phone over and over again. Wendy couldn't take it anymore, so she turned to leave as well.

Yanis wiped her tears and choked out, "Zachary, just move on from her. I'll introduce you to someone even better."

Andy sighed. "Zachary, there are so many amazing women out there. You can't ruin yourself over just one. Tell me what kind of woman you like, and I'll find her for you."

Zachary didn't say a word. He just sat there, staring blankly at the video.

Zion shook his head with a helpless sigh. "Forget it, let's just give him some space."

Yanis immediately objected. "No! I can't leave him alone again. What if he tries to kill himself?"
