Chapter 53 The Handsome Guy Was Going To Be Eaten

Zac and the woman got on the Rolls-Royce and soon disappeared. Far away from them, Essie's eyes stayed glued to the place they had stood earlier. It took her a long time to snap back into reality.

'Does it mean that he could not make money by hyping up shares? Is it possible he had sold himself for that apartment?'

She scratched her head while pacing back and forth. The more she thought, the more she was convinced her suspicion was true.

And now, she felt guilty. 'This is all my fault,' she muttered.

His self-esteem must have been wounded by what aunt Wendy said. And she even forced him to sign the property agreement, it would be like rubbing salt into his wound. His self-esteem would be completely shattered!

Although he looked cold on the outside, it turned out he was a simple-minded man. He handed over the credit card easily and didn't worry when the property ownership certificate had the wrong name.

Now, she was afraid that he would be tortured by the old rich woman.

All kinds of terrifying illusions came to her mind. The more she thought, the more scared she felt. The idea made her wince!

In the end, she decided she wouldn't let such a thing happen. She was willing to do all she could in order to rescue Zac from that trap he had fallen into.

As soon as she got home, she took out her cellphone and dialed his number. "Zac, where are you now?"

"What's wrong?" His voice was so low that it seemed like he didn't want the lady beside him to hear it.

"My stomach is going through an excruciating pain. Come back quickly. I can't bear it!" She let out a cry to make herself sound more convincing.

"I'll be right back."

Zac was much faster than she had expected. Within 10 minutes, she heard the sound of the doorknob being twisted. Taking this as a clue, she picked up the eye drops and dripped two drops into her eyes, pretending to be tearful. Then she covered her stomach with her hands and lay on the bed. "Oh, my God."

"Let me take you to the hospital." Zac's handsome face was twisted in worry. Without waiting for her reply, he moved forward and was about to pick her up. However, she stopped him. "No, I... It's just a period pain. I don't think we h

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

Thinking that he would soon be trampled ruthlessly, she stamped her feet angrily.

Her action made noise which didn't go unnoticed by Zac. He quickly hung up the phone and directed all his focus on Essie.

"Does your stomach still hurt?" He went up the stairs and stood in front of her.

She shook her head, trying to keep calm. It took a lot of effort to maintain her composure. "Was that a call from your friend, asking you to hang out?" she asked, feigning a smile.

"Yes, but don't worry. I will stay here with you." After all, how could he go out when she was in so much pain.

'I will visit Jade Pearl Pub!' she thought with determination. She wanted to meet this rich woman and settle accounts. She was willing to pay it all at once. And then Zac would be free from her clutches!
