Zac was shocked. His memory was brought back to eight years ago.
He did have done such a thing.
He attended a friend's birthday party and played an exciting game called golden wheel. When the wheel was turned to anyone, he would have to do something absurd according to the requirements, and the thing his turn was utterly speechless, Donate sperm.
Leila was also there at that time. It seemed that she had deeply engraved this matter in her mind.
"I really underestimate this woman." He snorted, a sharp light flashed across his face.
"Do you want to keep this baby?" William asked flint cautiously.
A faint sneer curled the corners of his mouth. "Do you know what is wrong with being smart?"
Hearing this, William sighed with relief secretly. He knew that a cautious boss like Zac would never leave any loopholes.
"What are we going to do next?"
Zac pondered for a while before asking, "Has there been any news about the virus research institute recently?"
"They have disintegrated the main contents of the antidote preparation, but only one of the contents has not been found out yet." William sighed.
Zac's beautiful eyebrows twisted in a straight line. As long as the life of Essie was still held in the hands of the enemy, he was not at ease at all.
"Keep an eye on Leila. Don't let her discover anymore," he ordered. Since they wanted to use Leila, he believed that they could break through from her.
Recently, the media had been talking about the relationship between Essie and Jim. For several days, they occupied the front page of entertainment news.
The couple also frequently showed up in public, showing off their love.
On the celebrity ball Saturday, as soon as they showed up, they attracted everyone's attention.
"Cathy." Jim changed his appellation to Essie which sounded very intimately. "Haven't you noticed that actually we are a perfect match?" He put his thin lips close to her ear and said in a very low voice, which looked very intimate.
"Brother Jim, why didn't you work hard eighteen years ago and lost in the golf competition?" Essie teased.
"If you make a mistake, you will be dead." Jim shook his head and sighed, "Well, you take me as the first substitute. If Zac is really stubborn, I will replace him by the way."
With a silent smile on her face, the corners of her mouth added a touch of desolation and beauty unconsciously. She would never have another man in her life except for Zac. If they were meant not to be together in this life, she would choose to live the rest of her life alone.
Not far away, Zac stared at them without a blink. His eyes were about to bleed. He even had an illusion that they had made friends secretly and were waiting to kick him away. Now he took the initiative to retreat, was it just what they wanted?
Jim saw him quickly. "Zac should have been paying attention to us all the time. We should go and say hello to him and thank him for his help." There was a mischievous smile on the corner of his mouth, and his tone was implicit and meaningful.
Essie nodded, stretching out her hand to hold his arm. "The closer we get, the happier he will be." She wanted to get an answer even if she had to leave Zac. She hoped that he would like this play tonight.
Seeing them coming over, Zac wanted to run away. He was worried that he would lose control, but he still tried his best to control himself.
"I didn't expect to see you again so soon. It seems impossible to never meet you in the same city," Standing in front of him, Essie said with a smile.
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, we have no relationship now." Zac tried his best to make his tone sound extremely cold.
"Yes, we have nothing to do with each other and I am going to see Jim from now on." She put on an exaggerated smile and added, "After so many love experiences, I find that Jim is the perfect guy for me. I'm happy with him."
Zac's heart convulsed violently. It seemed that he had fallen into a bottomless abyss and fell into pieces. Her feelings for him were really fragile, very fragile. Only a few days later, her feelings for him were gone, with no nostalgia at all.
"As long as you are happy," he said in a low voice.
Looking at him, Jim didn't intend to say anything to comfort him. Instead, he wanted to add a few more stabs to add to the tragedy effect of the drama. "Zac, thank you for letting her go. I'll have a chance to chase Cathy. Don't worry. I'll take good care of her." After saying that, he turned his head to look at Essie and gave her a kiss on her forehead.
Essie smiled, stood on tiptoe and kissed him back on the cheek.
There was a sharp pain in his chest, as if a arrow had pierced through his heart. A smell of blood came out of his mouth, as if all his internal organs had been broken.
He grabbed a glass of wine on the table and took a shot, trying to dissolve his pain with the help of alcohol. Unfortunately, the cocktail with zero degree alcohol didn't work on him at all.
Essie looked at him in silence, while a warm light flashed across her black apricot eyes. "I heard that your arm has recovered. Congratulations. Without me, your good luck comes back. "
"Don't talk nonsense. You are not a disaster, but a lucky star," interrupted Jim.
