Built His Empire Then Watched It Burn When He Cheated novel Chapter 581

Before Jonathan arrived, Zacharias didn't know who brought him here.

When Jonathan walked in, Zacharias' eyes narrowed—he wasn't really surprised.

He smirked. "All this fuss for nothing, Mr. Fullbuster? Let me guess... Anne found out the truth and dumped you?"

Now Jonathan's anger and desperation were plain to see.

It was clear—Anneliese didn't want him anymore.

Zacharias' eyes lit up. If Anneliese refused Jonathan, maybe I still had a chance, right?

The only issue was that she was pregnant with his child, which gave him an edge. But that didn't matter. Pregnant women were vulnerable and emotional.

If I showed her I didn't care and treated her well, maybe I could win her over.

After all, Jonathan had used her vulnerability to get close to her before.

Jonathan glanced at Zacharias and instantly knew what he was thinking.

The man snorted, took off his watch, tossed it onto the coffee table, and, without another word, grabbed Zacharias by the collar, lifted him off the couch, and punched him squarely in the face.

Bang!

It was a ruthless punch.

Zacharias had spent the past six months in a haze—drinking, barely eating, and constantly cleaning up after his unstable mother and sister.

He'd lost a lot of weight. Jonathan's punch sent him rolling off the couch, tumbling twice before landing face down on the floor.

He tried to get up, but a heavy force pressed down on his shoulders.

A moment later, Zacharias' face was slammed into the floor.

He felt his spine might snap.

"John… mmph…"

Pain filled his vision; he couldn't even curse.
