"Sure," was Tessa's disinterested reply.
"I saw the news about your engagement to him being cancelled. The two of you aren't together anymore, right? Since you're single now, can I pursue you?"
"No," Tessa responded as she got to her feet, not wanting to listen to Zachary's nonsense any longer.
Noticing how she planned to leave, he quickly grabbed her hand. He didn't manage to say a word before Tessa flipped their hands around. She gripped his wrist so tightly that it started to make cracking noises.
The pain was instantaneous, causing him to hiss out in pain. She tossed his hand aside, not bothering to hide the loathing in her eyes. "Zachary, I already made myself very clear the last time. What part of 'don't bother me anymore' do you not understand?"
Zachary looked upset. His gaze was filled with infatuation as he stared at Tessa. "I can't do that, Tessy. I won't give up on you."
"You disgust me, Zachary," Tessa spat out before turning on her heel and leaving without a single glance back at him.
Zachary chased after her. "I bet Stephen was already cheating on you with that female celebrity when the two of you were still a couple. Their dating rumors exploded immediately after you broke off your engagement with him. Did you break it off because you found out that he was being unfaithful?"
Tessa pursed her lips. Her gaze was frigid as she quickened her footsteps, refusing to answer Zachary's question.
He tailed closely after her. "Are you going to watch the entertainment industry's awards ceremony tonight? Stephen and that female celebrity are going to walk the red carpet together. It's their way of announcing their relationship to the public. Tessy, you should give up on him."
Her footsteps faltered when Zachary spoke about Stephen and Nancy making their relationship public. Seeing how Tessa had stopped in her tracks, a smile tugged at Zachary's lips. "Tessy, I—"
"Fuck off!"
"Tessy, don't chase me away. I know that you're—"
"I told you to fuck off!"

Oh my god, when is this book finishing... they're not even back together yet and more nonsense side plots.....
Whoa! Hahahahahaha! Go, Sophia! Burn, stupid Rowena! Lol...
Sooo~ Chapters 310-318 were just a repeat of Jacqueline’s punishment, official expulsion from the Jacobson family, and arrest. With few changes since Tessa and Stephen are not together this time. So Tessa didn’t witness how Jacqueline was tortured at Stephen’s base, though at least Tessa was still called over and witnessed how Stephen officially expelled Jacqueline from the Jacobson family and how Stephen’s subordinate made Jacqueline grovel in front of Tessa. Lol. I hope Jacqueline’s really out of the story now....
Also a lot of chapters were missing here. I went back to the application where it was originally published that’s why i know that this site is not reliable...
Fucked up book! Seems like the authors were not talking to each other. LOL. Yes authors, because of the inconsistencies....
The story went downhill after pg200 1. Why is Jacqueline back… she was expelled from the family already 2. There was no reason for Rowena to be mad at Tessa 3. The Jacobson already knows that Stephen wants to get back witb Tessa after they deal with James, so why is Rowena pushing hard? LOL 4. The family also knows that Stephen and Nancy have some sort of deal. The story was okay from page 1-199, but clearly it’s a thumbs down. I can deal with grammatical errors, but story errors is just different now....
This is funny! Jacqueline was also the culprit why James knew that nancy was Stephen's cousin. So, really, what happened when steohen tortured jacqueline hahah...
I wonder how many authors does this book have? Suddenly jacqueline was back and continue to bad mouth tessa. And was stunned that tessa knows her feelings about stephen. And then rowena was freaking mad at tessa too; because there werw multiple instances that tessa sharp-tongued her. 🤣...
What is wrong with the story flow? At chapter 160-164 there’s this whole thing about Stephen revealing in front of all the Jacobsons family members about Jacqueline’s inappropriate feelings towards him and her involvement in murder. There’s even this “Just like that, Jacqueline was officially expelled from the Jacobson family. Stephen then promptly handed her to the authorities.” So I was already glad the bitch is out of the picture. And then suddenly at chapter 236, Jacqueline appears again like nothing happened, still being the adoptive daughter of the Jacobson family and the family being unaware of her feelings for Stephen. Seriously? Doesn’t make sense anymore....
The latest update is just a repetition of the previous chapters...
