Chapter 187 Do Something To You
“Thank you, but neither of us are winners.” Lenora put down her fork.
“I can return to Clusia, but I want you to take me to the airport,” Zachary suddenly stipulated.
Lenora was slightly taken aback. Will he really let me go that easily!
After a moment of contemplation, Lenora nodded in agreement. “All right, when?”
“Tomorrow,”
“Okay”

Zachary picked up the unopened bottle of wine from the table, filling up the glass in front of Lenora. “Give it a try. This is the signature fruit wine of this restaurant.”
Zachary poured himself another glass.
Lenora lifted her wine glass to clink with Zachary’s, the rim of the glass pressing against her lower lip as she took a sip. The sweet fragrance of fruit filled her mouth.
“How is it?”
“Not bad.” Lenora smacked her lips, then took another sip.
“The kick from this wine is quite strong. Don’t drink too much.”
“Okay. Actually, on the day we got our divorce certificate, I wanted to invite you to dinner, just like how you treated me to a meal the day we got our marriage certificate. It was my way of returning the favor, a good ending to our journey. But unexpected events happened. Today, we can make up for it. Starting tomorrow, you’ll go back to focus on your work, and I’ll continue my journey. We won’t interfere with each other’s lives.”
When she spoke these words, her heart felt heavy and ached with a bitter sting.
But she knew she had made the right choice.
“All right.”
Zachary still had a faint smile playing at the corners of his mouth. He verbally agreed, but inside, he felt a bitter and sour sensation, as if he were drowning in a sea of emotions.
Lenora had a few more glasses, her face slightly flushed from the wine.
Feeling the effects of the alcohol, she set down her glass and rubbed her temples. “I think that’s enough. I should be heading back now.”
She stood up. Suddenly feeling a wave
f dizziness, she quickly steadied herself against the table.
Immediately, Zachary rushed over to steady her. As he drew near, he caught the familiar, refreshing scent of her hair. “Let me take you home.”

“It’s fine.”
“What, you’re worried I might do something to you?”
“Will you?” Lenora asked, feeling a bit lightheaded.
Zachary was momentarily stunned, but he didn’t respond.
Lenora rubbed her head before deciding to leave first.
After quickly settling the bill, Zachary caught up with Lenora, whose steps were slightly unsteady, and assisted her in leaving the restaurant.
“Nora, you’re drunk. Let me take you home.”
Lenora knew she was quite drunk and probably wouldn’t be able to make it back to the hotel alone. She didn’t resist any further and let Zachary guide her to the back seat of the car.
Afterward, Zachary started the car. Looking at Lenora through the rearview mirror, he said, “If you’re tired, lie down and rest for a while.”
“Mm,” Lenora murmured, her body radiating a sense of languidness.
After a few drinks on a winter’s day, the warmth spread through her body, creating such a comfortable feeling that she didn’t want to move.
Lenora was initially alert, observing the retreating street views through the car window. However, before long, her eyelids began to feel heavy, and without realizing it, she closed her eyes.
By the time Zachary parked the car in the hotel parking lot, Lenora had already fallen asleep.
He gently unbuckled his seatbelt and stepped out of the car. Opening the rear door, he leaned inside.
In the moonlight, her soft and beautiful sleeping face was all he could see. She was peacefully lost in a sweet slumber..
Her lips were full and rosy, curving slightly at the corners as if she were dreaming of something delightful. If only she could stay by my side like this all the time…
Zachary gently touched her lips. He watched her in silence for a long time before he carefully lifted her from the car and carried her into the hotel.
After gently laying her on the bed, he squatted at the head of the bed to remove her cotton boots and socks, revealing her delicate, fair feet, with cute and round toes. He couldn’t help but give them a squeeze before tucking them into the blanket.
Once he helped her out of her down jacket and tucked her in, he went to the bathroom, fetched some water, and gently assisted her in washing her face and removing her makeup.
Suddenly, the hotel room door swung open. Sophia exclaimed, “Tyrant Fuller? What are you doing here?” She immediately rushed over. “What are you doing to Nora?”

Just a moment ago in her room, she had heard the sound of a door opening from next door. She thought it was Lenora returning, so she decided to go over and ask about her situation with Elijah. However, as soon as she entered, she saw Zachary–someone who shouldn’t have been there.
Zachary casually lifted his gaze and glanced at her. “Shh”
He continued to dab Lenora’s cheeks with a towel.
It dawned on Sophia later that Zachary was actually helping Lenora to remove her makeup.
“What happened to Nora? You didn’t drug her, did you? Sophia questioned seriously.
Zachary glanced up at her, his gaze dark and terrifying, causing her to shiver in fear
The man had such an overwhelming presence that she truly couldn’t handle it.
However, for the sake of her close friend, the mustered up the courage and said, “I’m warning you. Nora is already dworced from you. If you dare to hurt her. I’ll risk everything to make you pay.”
Zachary’s expression softened a bit when he heard that
Even though Sophia was always pushing Lenora to find man, which was quite annoying, she genuinely cared for Lenora.
Given the comideration for Lora, he decided to let her off the hook for the time being.
“She had a bit of a drink and fell asleep Zachary uncharacteristically explained.
Sophia was somewhat surprised, but she let out a sigh of relief.

Zachary placed the towel in the basin, then carried at the bathroom.
Sophia moved closer to the bendrade, greatly touching Lamora’s forehead and checking her steady breathing before she could relax. Yoi abur stayed plens, her eyni furd on the direction of the bathroomTE
When Zachary emerged from the bathrooms empty–handed Sophia immediately asked, “Wasn’t Nora supposed to have dinner with hugt Why wash with you?”
Zachary didn’t respond as he headed toward the door take good care of her
“Hey!”
When he opened the door, he suddenly turned around and looked at Sophta with a hint of seriousness “Don’t let her see those photos on your phone anymore
“Or what
“Or I’ll have someone hack your phone or simply smash it Your choice.”
Sophia frill silent

be a shame if the photos she had painstakingly collected were to be compromised.
Moreover, her phone held more than just photos; it contained other valuable items. If a hacker were to see and expose them, her reputation would be ruined for life.
Not long after Zachary left, Sophia made sure that Lenora was all right, then returned to her own room.
At eight o’clock the next morning, Lenora woke up to find a note left by Sophia on her bedside table. It read: Babe, could you explain why you were with Tyrant Fuller last night when you wake up?
Lenora sent a message to Sophia: Soph, I’m taking Zachary to the airport first. I’ll explain the rest when I get back
Sophia responded swiftly: You better give me a clear explanation!
Lenora was in the midst of freshening up when a message from Zachary popped up on her phone. It read: Are you up yet? I’ve bought the plane ticket. I’ll come pick you up. Let’s have breakfast at the airport.
Zachary even sent a screenshot of his plane ticket to Lenora to prevent her from doubting him and thinking he was lying. The information on the ticket was indeed his.
With a toothbrush and foam in her mouth, Lenora replied: Come over in ten minutes.
Ten minutes later, Zachary knocked on Lenora’s door.
He stood at the door, tall and handsome, wearing a short grey parka. His shoulders were straight, and he wore black suit pants with handmade leather shoes, looking neat and sharp. A black suitcase sat beside
him..
“Let’s go.” Lenora picked up her purse and casually closed the door behind her.
Upon reaching the airport, the two of them found a KFC to settle down in and ordered a pair of breakfast
sets.
After breakfast, Zachary checked in, and they made their way to the entrance of the departure lounge. Lenora said, “I suppose this is where we part ways.”
“Yeah, but I won’t go in just yet. I want to talk with you. He looked at Lenora. “What are your plans after leaving Nardor? Are you going back home or continuing your travels?”
Looking into Lenora’s eyes, Zachary added, “There’s no need to be scared. If I want to follow you, tracking your movements will be a breeze for me. There’s no need for me to tip you off.”
“We plan to visit Archulea and return home by New Year’s.”
“Archulea is quite nice, with the Sloummont Opera House, the Grand Barrier Reef, Penguin Island, National Zoo… It’s the perfect time to travel there. By the way, Nora, why didn’t you consider going to Fairlake? Didn’t you study there for a year? Don’t you want to visit?”
Back in the day, Lenora had transferred to Pillere University in Fairlake for an exchange program. Lenora paused for a moment before she remembered where Fairlake was.
She pondered for a moment, then gently shook her head. “I don’t remember much about Fairlake.”
