Chapter 253 Forever a Secret
At that moment, Jane seemed to have emphasized the word "mother" all the time.
Zachary knew that she was reminding and warning him.
He understood what she meant.
His mother's life was still in Jane's hands.
Zachary was deeply in debt and had been hiding with his mother when Jane found him.
So, at first, he didn't dare to tell the truth.
But eventually, under Christian's forceful and ruthless pressure, Zachary couldn't hold out any longer.
Fortunately, he fainted just as he was about to spill the beans.
And now, as soon as Zachary saw Jane, he remembered her warning.
He nervously struggled to breathe as Jane calmly approached, a faint, cold smile playing on her lips.
"You've caused me so much trouble for such a simple task."
Zachary trembled nervously.
"I really didn't expect it. Mr. Patterson came too quickly!"
Most importantly, Christian and Jane were not engaged!
Zachary had only dared to work for Jane because he had heard about their engagement beforehand.
But now...
Jane chuckled lightly, her eyes devoid of any mirth.
"You've failed to complete your task, and now you're finding excuses. I gave you money to temporarily escape your creditors, and this is how you repay me?"
Zachary shivered uncontrollably, gritting his teeth.
"Ms. Martinez, Mr. Patterson is in love with Anastasia. You deceived me! If anything happens to Anastasia, Mr. Patterson won't spare me. If you dare hurt my mother, I'll tell him it was you who ordered me to do it!"
Jane's expression turned icy, and a dangerous glint passed through her eyes.
