Way Back Into Love (Essie) novel Chapter 64

His gaze pierced through her body and landed on her neck. Slowly, he was taken back to the past. This dark past consisted of him and the evil girl. The wound began to ache once again.

Hearing what Leila said, Essie's heart twisted. All of a sudden, the necklace that had attracted her became too dazzling to bear.

Essie didn't expect that Zac and Leila had such a strong history. His love and concern for her must have been quite sincere! This sweet and passionate love brought Essie's admiration. But at the same time, she was also a little sad. A complex and indescribable feeling crept into her heart like a poisonous snake that was spitting out the core from her back. Her heart was entangled by it, suffocating her.

Somehow, she tried to convince herself she wasn't jealous. She told herself it was due to the weight of the task assigned by Mandy. But they seemed to have sworn to love each other forever. Was it inappropriate to place obstacles in their way?

When she sighed in her heart, Mandy entered the scene. "Zac," she greeted him first.

There was a glimmer of light in Essie's sad eyes. "Mandy, you're here!" Thank God! She could get rid of the burden and now it would be Mandy's turn to bear the weight of this confession.

Mandy's appearance brought him back to reality. He frowned and cast a gloomy glance at the culprit who had leaked his whereabouts to Mandy.

The expression in Leila's eyes was as ferocious as that of a hedgehog, pricking up its prickles.

'Who was the woman? Who gave her the right to talk to him so freely?' Leila wondered.

Mandy looked back at Leila with somewhat similar emotions. From head to toe, she glanced at the beauty who was standing before her. Even though Mandy herself was quite a beauty, Leila's looks made he feel inferior.

The room was similar to a battlefield and these two women shot each other with their piercing eyes.
