Way Back Into Love (Essie) novel Chapter 299

Zac walked quickly to them, leaving Leila behind. "Why are you two together?" He asked and frowned slightly.

"Why can't we be together?" Essie retorted sourly.

"Zac, since you have divorced, we are just ordinary friends. And about what happened to Essie, you don't need to ask more." Walt said slowly, distancing himself from Essie.

They were not friends. Essie corrected him in her heart. Zac told her in person that they only had business relationship at the moment.

There was a touch of melancholy on the face of Zac. Was his brother going to take advantage of his weakness and swoop in? Even if it was Zac's own brother, Walt would never have an idea on his wife. When he was about to speak, Leila walked to him from behind and put her hand in his arm. "Brother Zac, let's go to the bar counter for a drink?" She dragged him away on purpose.

Looking at them, Essie was furious and said, "excuse me." After saying that, she walked away with Walt arm in arm.

Pulling his arm out of her grip, Zac ignored Leila and walked to the bar counter alone. He sat down and ordered a glass of whiskey. He was extremely angry, "Damn it, damn it." He kept cursing silently. Regret, anger and jealousy were boiling in his heart.

Standing next to him, Leila felt depressed and disappointed.

When the music began, Walt and Essie walked into the dance floor together. When Zac looked at Walt's hand holding hers in one hand and putting the other hand on her waist, blazing cold light burst out from his eyes. His handsome face was completely filled with jealousy.

"Zac, let's dance." Leila asked cautiously.

"Go by yourself." Zac answered absent mindedly. His eyes were fixed on Essie.

"Pineapple, you're good at dancing." Said Walt in awe.

"You too." Essie smiled.

"When are you going back to Summer 100 Degree? It's about the new product show. There will be a large show. As the founder, are you going to seize this opportunity to return?" Asked Walt with a smile.

"Not now. I'm working as the special assistant for CEO at Hengyuan. I have a lot of things to do and I can't leave now." She sighed.

"Why are you here?" Said Walt, slightly surprised.

"It's a long story." "I know nothing about this business. I have to start from scratch to learn real estate and investment," she continued.

"I can teach you." Said Walt with a charming smile on his face.

"Really?" There was a sparkle of joy in her eyes. She wouldn't have to beg that bastard Zac for help.

"Of course. Call me if you have any questions." Walt nodded seriously.

In front of the bar counter, Zac looked around with his eyes wide open. What were they talking about and laughing so happily. She had never smiled at him like that since she came back. He was very unhappy. He soaked too long in the jealousy jar, and even his pores sweated out.

As soon as the dance stopped, he rushed over and said, "next dance, dance with me." It was almost a mandatory order, and she was not allowed to disobey. However, she refused. "Mr. Rong, I am not your partner. If you want to dance, you should find your partner."

"Are you angry about what happened this morning?" He asked.

"I don't have the spare time. We are just business partners. Please behave yourself." Essie replied coldly.

"You are still mad at me." He muttered and grabbed her hand. "I've changed my mind. From now on, you'll be my dancing partner."

"Let me go." She shook off his hand violently and added shyly, "I'm not a toy that you ask me to come and go at your disposal."

Standing out to protect her behind him, Walt had already angered him greatly. "Zac, do you really take me as an invisible person?"

"She is my woman, your sister-in-law." Every word was squeezed between his teeth, cold and ruthless.

"No more." Essie said when she was standing behind Walt, and she had the courage to answer his question.

"Listen up. Essie is my partner tonight. It has nothing to do with you." Said Walt.

Ignoring him, Zac stared at Essie and said in a painful tone, "if you want to take revenge on me, you've made it." After that, he turned and walked out of the ball hall, halting like an injured cheetah.

"Zac." Upon hearing this, Leila instantly stood up and tried to catch up with him, but he had already forgotten her and drove away.

Pulling a glass of cocktail for her, Walt said, "don't think about anything unhappy."

"I'm fine." "Let's go, Walt. Let's dance," she said and took a sip of wine. She forced a smile and said in an exaggerated way.
