Way Back Into Love (Essie) novel Chapter 236

He stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms. Then he opened the drawer and took out the invitation card. "Well, I'm not kidding. Tomorrow is the birthday for Leila. Would you like to go with me?"

Essie was startled and thought, 'Is he kidding me? He wanted to take me with him? What did he mean?'

"It's your old lover's birthday. If I go there, won't it ruin the chance for you to chat about the good old days?" She pouted. That was a sweet talk. Zac reached out his finger and lightly clicked on it. "Right now, Leila and I are only good friends. You are my wife. I hope you two can be friends too."

Friend? How is that possible? Have you ever seen a rival in love turn into a friend?

Enemies in love are incompatible as fire and water. They are incompatible with each other. It's the relationship that only one can survive between you and me!

Besides, Leila hated her for stealing other people's love and her replace. She would never be friendly to her.

"You can go by yourself. I don't want to go with you. I stay at home and watch TV." She pushed him away, sat beside the bed and held the pillow.

"You have no choice, you have to go with me." He changed to a firm tone.

"I don't know her very well, so why must I go with you?" It was none of her business to celebrate the birthday of his first love. Did she have to go with him to congratulate him? To be a substitute of them was enough to feel bad, depressed, and to be reminded all the time, even if she was a grass root, she had self-esteem.

"Because I have to go. From now on, as long as I appear in public, you must be with me. You can't be absent without special circumstances." He was as domineering as a king who was high up and released royal decree.

She was speechless.

When did she became his retinue and accompanying?

She was his wife, not a puppet or subordinate. It was her freedom to go to a place or not and he had no right to interfere with it!

"I won't go." She turned her head and confronted him bravely.

"You're letting me do whatever I want, right? Considering that I've got an excellent opportunity, I guess there's no need to keep a low profile." He said in a low voice, but his words were very decisive and threatening.

If she didn't go this time, it would be like giving him a green light, allowing him to pass on the peach blossom bloomed road freely. No matter what he would do in the future, he didn't have to worry about her, his legal wife. She always pampered him.

"Forget it. I don't have any appointment tomorrow night anyway. I will accompany you to have fun." She surrendered, mainly for her own health. If he did not come back soon and got dirty, she would be contaminated as well.

Zac raised his thin lips. His smile was self-willed and allowed. What the dull people liked to say was not what on their minds.
