He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 1024

What kind of secret gathering was she hosting that required this level of security?

The more Corinne thought about it, the more obsessed she became.

She and Melanie paced outside the doors anxiously. Suddenly, the banquet hall doors opened, and Zachary stepped out alone.

They watched him head toward the restrooms.

Their eyes lit up, staring at his broad shoulders and narrow waist, practically drooling.

Realizing this was a golden opportunity, they followed him without hesitation.

The moment Zachary stepped out of the restroom, Corinne and Melanie blocked his path.

Zachary looked down, his gaze glacial.

Although this was his first time back in the country, he had thoroughly reviewed the dossiers of every single person who had ever harmed his mother and sister. Their faces were burned into his memory. The moment these two skulked into his line of sight, he knew exactly who they were.

Corinne stared at his face, finding him more devastatingly handsome by the second. In her youth, she had secretly crushed on Sean Bishop, only to lose him to Jacqueline. This man had Sean's dark charm, but his aura was a thousand times more commanding. That icy, untouchable energy was pure catnip.

Losing all restraint, Corinne asked bluntly, "Hey, handsome. How much is Jacqueline paying you? Name your price. I guarantee I'll double it."

For years, Corinne and Franklin had maintained an open, loveless marriage, never interfering with each other's affairs. To curb her boredom, Corinne had bankrolled plenty of young men in secret, keeping it entirely hidden from the family—except for Melanie. Melanie loved to party just as much as her mother, and sometimes they even shared their conquests. Around Melanie, Corinne had no shame.
