Left for Dead Came Back for Everything novel Chapter 86

"If it were not for my parents back then, you would have frozen to death!"

"Are you going to slander me like this just for someone who doesn't even love you anymore!"

Zander pinched the bridge of his nose, staring at the wailing Yvonne as his mind spiraled into absolute chaos.

Had he really accused her wrongly?

Though his suspicions were not entirely erased, he could no longer bring himself to interrogate her.

With Yvonne just weeping and throwing a tantrum, it was impossible to drag the truth out of her.

All he could do was shake her off and stumble out of the house in a daze.

He had to see Eliza. He needed to ask her face-to-face!

He needed to know the whole truth!

But he could not find her anywhere.

For the next few days, Zander scoured every possible place Eliza might be, acting like a madman.

But every time, Gwen would miraculously appear and unleash a barrage of venomous curses at him.

After exhausting all his connections, he finally tracked down Eliza's current apartment building.

But he was stunned to discover that the apartment was registered under Julian's name.

The thought that they might already be living together drove Zander to the brink of insanity.

He staked out the building for days but did not catch a single glimpse of her.

He hammered the buzzer countless times, only to be met with the intercom's cold, automated voice: "I am sorry, the resident has declined your visit."

It was not until the evening of the fourth day.

The automatic glass doors of the lobby slowly slid open. Eliza walked out wearing white loungewear, seemingly carrying a bag of trash.

She took it step by step.

Zander's eyes lit up, and he lunged forward.

"Eliza!" He reached out to grab her hand.

"If you are done with the garbage, then remember what I am about to say." Eliza cut him off mercilessly.

"The divorce papers will be finalized in a week. Next Tuesday, 9 AM, at the courthouse. Bring all your documents. We are making this divorce permanent."

A violent shudder ran through him. Was the day really arriving so soon?

Zander suddenly roared like a wounded animal. "I am not going! I will not agree to the divorce! Eliza, do not even think about getting rid of me! Even if I die, I am keeping you by my side! I will not divorce you, not even over my dead body!"

He screamed hoarsely, as if the volume could mask the crippling terror clawing at his insides.

Watching his hysterical, ugly display, a mocking smirk touched the corner of Eliza's lips.

She did not get angry. Instead, she slowly pulled her phone out of her pocket and waved it in the air.

"Should I call Yvonne right now?" Eliza raised her eyes, her gaze piercing.

"Do you dare repeat what you just said, word for word, right to her face?"

"Do you have the guts to tell her that Zander Roth is refusing to get a divorce?"

The man who had been screaming like a lunatic about never letting go just a second ago instantly clammed up at the mention of Yvonne's name, too terrified to utter a single syllable.
