Chapter 46 Whose Car Did You Get On

"What did you buy?" His voice was still eerily calm, just like the waves before a big storm, solemn and slow. She thought for a moment and remembered that she had told him that she would go to the supermarket. She waved her hand dismissively and said, "The fruit wasn't fresh, so I decided not to buy any."

"Did you forget your wallet?" Zac snorted before grabbing the wallet from the table and throwing it at her.

"Yes— Yes, I forgot my wallet." Embarrassed, Essie scratched her head and bit her lip. She forced herself to smile and pretended to be calm. Then, she said, "Where are we going to have dinner tonight?"

"Wherever," Zac replied faintly.

She raised her eyebrows and glanced at him. She had a feeling that there was something wrong with him. Even though he had a blank expression on his face, there seemed to be some coldness hidden in his eyes. He looked so cold that she could not help but tremble.

"How about the porridge shop? Over there..." Before she could even finish her words, Zac turned around and entered the room. Then he slammed the door behind him with so much force that the entire house seemed to tremble.

Something was definitely wrong.

Perhaps he was angered by what happened in aunt Wendy's house that morning.

Zac was a man who was good at hiding his thoughts. Her aunt's words were immensely mean and hurtful, so even though he was pretending to be calm, his self-esteem may be deeply hurt.

Essie knew that she needed to comfort him.

So she immediately walked up to his door and knocked.

When nobody answered, she said, "Zac, please don't take my aunt's words to heart. She has always had a sharp tongue. We are still young and our career is just starting

d not dare to mention anything about her admiration for Hanson.

"Really? Are you serious?" Lucy stared at her daughter with sharp eyes.

"Mom, I hate having affairs as much as you do," she added.

With a smile, Bob took his wife in his arms and said, "As I said, you're just being too sensitive. Our daughter is the most obedient girl in the world, and she would never make such a mistake."

Lucy heaved a sigh of relief. She patted her daughter's hand and said, "Zac was at the stairway when you got in the car, so he saw it with his own eyes. He looked very angry, so there must be some misunderstanding between you two. You have to explain all this to him as soon as possible."

Of course, any man would be bothered if he saw his wife getting into the luxury car of another man.

Essie was shocked again. It turned out that that was the reason Zac got angry. No wonder her attempt to comfort him didn't work.

Now, she knew exactly what to do. 'Just wait and see,' she thought.

After leaving the hotel, Essie went to a fruit store first and bought some oranges—Zac's favorite fruit. She was now ready to launch a sweet attack.
