The Rose He Showed Off Is Putting Down Roots in a Garden of Her Own novel Chapter 293

Elara sighed in exasperation. "Tell me, Mr. Whitaker, are all corporate billionaires as prone to throwing tantrums as you are?"

"I am not throwing a tantrum."

"Then why are you puffing up like an angry bull and arguing with everything I say?" She glared at him. "If you've been sexually frustrated for the past two weeks, I took care of that for you yesterday. What more do you want?"

"Is it really the same thing?" Zane challenged.

Elara was utterly speechless. "You found your release either way. What difference does it make?"

"If it were the exact same thing, escorts wouldn't exist."

"If you were so miserable, why did you force my hand to do it in the first place?"

"Going to your place wasn't good enough, and taking care of you wasn't good enough either. What exactly do you want?" Elara asked, her brow furrowing.

"You know what? Go see Sebastian. Let the girls at his club treat you right, and once you've cooled off, you can come find me."

Upon hearing that, Zane was so furious he saw red. "What did you just tell me to do? Go sleep around with random women?"

"Go ahead. Find as many as you want."

In that moment, Zane felt an overwhelming surge of betrayal.

During his brief marriage to Jocelyn Yale, he had fulfilled his marital obligations for six months. Aside from that, he had never slept with another woman.

He threw open the car door and stormed off.

The expensive sports car let out a deafening roar as it peeled away, practically broadcasting its owner's fury to the world.

Elara ignored the display and simply drove her own car out of the parking garage.

Seeing her leave in his rearview mirror made Zane feel like he was going to explode.

He slammed his foot on the gas and merged onto the highway.

Given the late hour on a weekday, the roads were mostly empty, and the speedometer quickly pushed past a hundred and twenty miles per hour.

A suffocating tightness gripped Zane's chest as a bitter realization hit him: Elara was never going to love him the way he loved her.

She had already given her heart to someone else.

Long before him.
