Zachary stared at the sunlight streaming through the window and said in a low voice, "It's Tessa."
Zion exclaimed in surprise, "What? Tessa? She's getting engaged? To whom?"
"It doesn't matter who!" Zachary's voice sounded maniacal. "I won't let her marry that man. She can only ever be mine! I'll win her back no matter what!"
Zion was left momentarily stunned by Zachary's declaration. He hesitated before saying cautiously, "Zachary, don't you think that's kinda immoral?"
Zachary chuckled coldly. "Immoral? I don't care about morality. I just need her by my side."
Upon hearing this, Zion was utterly speechless.
Was Zachary being serious? When he and Tessa were together, he treated her as nothing more than a mere replacement for Wendy. Then, the moment Wendy returned, he immediately tossed Tessa aside to be with her.
And now, with their relationship over and Tessa about to get engaged soon, he was suddenly trying to act all loving and devoted. He even had the audacity to say that morality didn't matter and that he just wanted her by her side.
Unbelievable. Absolutely unbelievable.
Zion sighed and said, "I'm not well-versed in stealing other people's fiancée, but good luck."
…
During the weekend, Stephen had personally prepared lunch for Tessa at Marina Apartment.
After the meal, Tessa said, "I have plans with my colleague this afternoon. We're going to visit one of our coworkers who's in the hospital."
"Is it the victim from the previous knife attack incident?"
Tessa nodded. "Yup. I'm going with a few of my colleagues from the litigation department. We're planning to buy some flowers, fruits, and other gifts on the way there."
