Chapter 50
A few years ago, Ralph had reprimanded Stephen because he had gotten to a fight. Fortunately, no one had ever uncovered the reason why he fought back then.
This time, he couldn’t afford to let his family know he had fought over Tessa.
Otherwise, their engagement might be postponed or even canceled.
Samson wiped the sweat off his forehead as a chill ran down his splne. He nodded quickdy and said, “I understand.”
“Go take care of the admission procedure,” Stephen instructed.
“Right away, Mr. Jacobson.”
From his bed, Zachary had overheard every word of their conversation.
He smirked and raised an eyebrow “Afraid of letting your family know you got into a fight? What are you? A child?”
Stephenchucked and cast a mocking glance over at Zachary, “The only person who needs to know is my fiancée,” he replied.
The word “fine” hit Zachary like a trock
Zachary was dejected. He slumped back against the bed and stared blandy at the Ivdrip, watching the liquid slowly trickle down.
The pain from his wounds was nothing compared to the ache in his chest.
He still couldn’t accept the fact that Tessa had a flanote that was not him.
No, it had to be a lie. Maybe she was doing this because he had told her he didn’t want to marry her. She must’ve found a replacement just to provoke him. Yes, that had to be it. Tessa loved him so deeply that she couldn’t live without him. There was no way she could be with another man. It was impossible. Zachary clung to that thought to reassure himself.
He turned to look at Stephen with a mocking gaze and said, “You’re just someone she hired to provoke me, right? Isn’t it a trend to rent boyfriends online now? What’s your rate? I’ll pay you ten times that. Leave her. Right now.”
Stephen Langhed out of frustration and raised an eyebrow, “If living in denial makes you feel better, go ahead. I won’t stop you,” he replied.
Tessa was dumbfounded by Zachary’s words. She glared at him and said, “Are you crazy? Do you really think I’d stoop so low as to take a fiancé just to lie to you?” Zachary refused to belleve her. He was cominced that Stephen was nothing more than a fake.

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...
