Chapter 1056 The Man of My Dreams
Michelle stood frozen in place. After a long pause, she finally regained her composure.

"Zayn, weren't we just talking with Melissa ten minutes ago?"

Zayn's expression darkened, his voice turning cold. "Michelle, are you hallucinating? Use your brain before you speak nonsense at the worst moment!"

Michelle couldn't understand why he was acting this way. "How could I be imagining things? Catherine found us while we were still together!"

Zayn took a step closer, his gaze sharp and unforgiving. "Michelle, listen carefully. You can't just go around making reckless claims!

"You must be mistaken. When did I ever sit and chat with you two?

"I've been occupied all day, meeting influential figures from different regions, discussing global affairs, and responding to military enthusiasts' inquiries. Do you think I have time to waste on pointless gossip?

"When Catherine and Elliott arrived, you had already finished your conversation with Melissa. They only saw us together after that!

"So whatever you and Melissa were talking about has nothing to do with me!"

Michelle stared into Zayn's indifferent eyes, feeling a wave of dizziness and confusion wash over her.

"Zayn, you're joking, right?"

Zayn's expression twisted with disdain as he pointed at her. "Do I look like I have time to joke with dull women like you?

"Michelle, don't drag me into whatever mess you and Melissa have created!

"Do you even realize what you've done? Slandering Joanna like that—it's defamation! You've already broken the law!"

His voice was sharp, filled with contempt. "I have principles. I would never stoop to something so low!

"When Melissa brought this up before, I told her not to go through with it! Didn't I?"

Michelle instinctively nodded, her voice hesitant. "But Zayn, later—"

Zayn cut her off. "Since I told her not to do it, why would I have anything to do with your ridiculous schemes? Use your brain!

"Now that Melissa has crossed the line, she has to face the consequences, and so do you. Don't try to involve me!

"I'm a man of ambition. I'll hold a global strategic seminar. I can't let trivial matters like this slow me down!"

Michelle stood frozen, her mind struggling to process his words.

The man she had idolized, admired, and loved so deeply was now pushing all the blame onto her.

"Zayn, I must have misheard. This is my fault. I've always tried to understand your grand ambitions through my small, feminine perspective.

"Your father always said a true man takes responsibility. Zayn, you're my hero! My role model!

"I adore you. You're everything I dreamed a great man should be!

"If we've done wrong, then we should admit it together. Even if it means facing the worst punishment, I'll stand by your side!"

Zayn shouted angrily, "Stop spouting nonsense! You and Melissa have done unforgivable things, and now you're trying to drag me down with you? You vile woman! I won't waste another second on you!"

"Zayn, tell me this isn't real! I must have heard wrong!" Michelle's voice trembled, her eyes brimming with tears. She looked like a lost child, abandoned and helpless.

"D*mn it!" Elliott roared, "How can you treat a girl who loves you so much like this? Do you even call yourself a man? You're worse than her!"
