Recently, Zachary had been running around to secure investments.
The companies in Rivertown were unlikely to invest in Gomez Group, so he had to explore opportunities elsewhere. Most of his time lately was spent in hotels and on airplanes.
That day, he had just arrived back in Rivertown, and Zion came to pick him up.
It was early evening, and they were on their way to dinner.
At a red light, Zion glanced at Zachary, who was flipping through old photos of him and Tessa.
Zion's lips parted as if he wanted to say something, but he hesitated.
Before he could speak, Zachary leaned over and showed him his phone, his expression soft and full of emotion. "Look at how happy we were back then."
Zion's expression grew complicated.
Last time, Zachary had asked him to buy a ring, saying he intended to win Tessa back.
At the time, Zachary mentioned that Tessa was about to get engaged. He had also said it would be immoral to go after someone else's fiancée.
Since returning to Rivertown, he didn't dare ask Zachary about Tessa.
Ever since Tessa left Haverford, Zion had never seen her, nor did he know anything about her fiancé.
However, during his time spent with Zachary recently, he could sense that his friend smiled far less often.
In the past, Zachary had always been the life of the party at gatherings. But now, he would drink alone in silence more often than not. When drunk, he would call out Tessa's name and be filled with sorrow.
At that moment, Zachary was looking at their old photos with a rare smile, seemingly lost in his memories, deceiving himself to no end.
Zion felt like Zachary was losing himself. He wanted to ask if he'd given her the ring but couldn't bring himself to say it.
In the end, Zion could only let out a deep sigh.
The red light turned green just like that.
The driver stepped on the gas, and the car moved forward.
Suddenly, he spotted a familiar figure.
"Stop the car!" Zachary shouted.
Zion was confused as he asked, "What?"
Seeing Zachary stare out of the window, Zion followed his gaze and froze.
In an instant, he understood why Zachary demanded the car to stop.
On the sidewalk, Tessa was walking with a man.
Both of them were walking in their direction, close enough for their faces to be clearly seen.
The man was handsome, exuding an air of refinement. His attire was impeccable, clearly indicating he wasn't an ordinary person.
They were talking and laughing, their demeanor intimate.

Yuhohoooo!!! Finally!!!...
Aaand~ Tessa and Stephen are finally back together! Yaaaaay!...
Why make an uninteresting, irrelevant twist when readers are waiting for Tess and Stephen to be together?...
Gosh just let Tessa and Stephen get back together already! Ugh...
Oh my god, when is this book finishing... they're not even back together yet and more nonsense side plots.....
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....
