I Refuse to Divorce novel (Zoe and Mason) novel Chapter 2

Six years! That was how long she had loved him! Zoe closed her eyes abruptly.

It was a Friday night. Something bad happened in the Sanders house. Mason still wasn’t home. They received news that the eldest child in the Sanders family, Noah, might be facing a ten-year sentence because of the Sanders Group’s financial case.

Ten years imprisonment was long enough to ruin someone’s life. Her dad was hospitalized due to a brain hemorrhage. It was critical and he needed to undergo surgery immediately.

Zoe stood in the hospital hallway and called Mason non-stop, but he didn’t answer. Just when she was about to give up, he sent her a text via WhatsApp. It was brief as usual.

“I’m still in Hucksburgh. Find Ava if you need anything.”

She gave him a call again, and he answered this time. Zoe said at once, “Mason. My dad is…” Mason cut her off abruptly. He sounded a tad impatient, “Is this about the money? I told you. Just look for Ava. She’ll hook you up… Are you even listening, Zoe?”

Zoe was raising her head and looking at a screen with a blank expression. It was broadcasting a piece of news.

‘The director of Lockwood Pharmaceutical Group rented the entire Disneyland and made a lady’s day.’

The fireworks were exploding throughout the entire sky as a young lady sitting in a wheelchair was smiling widely. Mason was standing right behind her, holding his phone.

Zoe blinked and said painfully after a long pause, “Where are you, Mason?” He paused for a while, seemingly unhappy that she was checking on his whereabouts. He said, “I’m busy. I’m going to hang up now. You should get in touch with Ava.”

He didn’t care enough to realize that she was about to burst into tears, but he lowered his head and looked at the young lady affectionately. Zoe’s vision was blurred by tears… She didn’t know that he could be this affectionate toward somebody.

Her stepmother, Mia, said, “Did you manage to call Mason? You have to get him to help us, Zoe…” She stopped abruptly when she saw what was shown on the screen.
