Chapter 593
Ember turned to find that it was Zachary, and her expression turned from savagery to tenderness in a split second.
However, even before she could cajole him, Zachary spoke. "I told them not to let her in."
Ember’s face fell, her visage turning ferocious again as her voice turned shrill, "We aren’t divorced yet! You have no right!"
"So what if we aren't divorced?" Zachary said flatly. "I won't let you in either way. What can you do about it, hmm?"
Ember's eyes widened-she had never expected Zachary to become like this, and there soon spite showed in her look of disbelief as well.
She should have seen him for what he really was, instead of believing his lies! To think that she believed him!
"Zachary Slate!!!" she screamed.
Zachary simply ignored her and said, "You're not coming in if you're not signing the divorce agreement. You returned so quickly because you wanted money, didn't you?"
Ember blinked.
"Y-You're heinous," she snarled.
"I got that from you," he said coolly, and headed inside.
Ember tried to follow, but was stopped again, leaving her stamping her feet out in the courtyard.
Even so, she refused to accept defeat and sign the divorce agreement.
Over at Hotmesh Research, Irene and the researchers had developed an antidote for the virus.
However, it was still at the testing stage, and since animal testing took time with a long observation time frame as well, Irene decided to test it on herself.
"I'll do it instead!" Stephen Carr volunteered, worried about her body.
Irene shook her head-her son's life was on the line, and the test could potentially be lethal or worse, crippling.
She would not play around with another person's life.
Bzzt...
Irene's phone buzzed just then and she whipped it out to see that it was a text.
