I Forgot I Ever Loved You (Zoe and Hayden) novel Chapter 528

Yara stared blankly at Colin.

"If she's Mr. Thorne's wife, why is she shacked up with Garrett Kendall?"

"..."

Colin had absolutely no idea where to even begin.

"Is Garrett's kid actually Mr. Thorne's?"

"..."

Colin was completely out of his depth trying to explain the mess.

"Since she's his wife, why doesn't Mr. Thorne just take her back himself? Why send me to seduce Garrett? Did Mrs. Thorne stop loving him and cheat?"

Three brutal, soul-crushing questions in a row. Colin felt second-hand embarrassment sweating from his pores on Hayden's behalf.

"Look, Mr. Thorne didn't disclose the specifics. When you take a job, you leave the pointless questions at the door."

Yara nodded with absolute sincerity.

But her next sentence nearly gave Colin a heart attack.

"I still need to kill her. Otherwise, the mission is compromised."

Yara gave Colin a polite, appreciative nod.

"I'm leaving now. See you around."

She walked away with measured, heavy strides, carrying the undeniable aura of a ruthless commander from Sector XI.

Colin was left standing in a cold sweat.

This was a disaster. Was Zoe Lynd about to be assassinated?

Meanwhile, Zoe woke up naturally at the Kendall residence.

Little Ian had already been playing with Sylvia for quite some time.

Seeing Zoe descend the stairs, Sylvia handed the toddler over to their hired nanny.

"Come eat! Garrett and the rest of us already had breakfast, we were just waiting for you. The auction doesn't start until nine-thirty, so there's plenty of time."

Staying with the Kendalls had been the most comforting experience Zoe had felt since her father passed away.

The Kendall household felt like her true home.

"Alright."

Zoe headed to the dining room, where the private chef had laid out a rich, nutritious spread perfectly tailored for her recovery.
