Chapter 312 Remarry Me
Zachary, you better not be messing with me?
Zachary was laughing when he abruptly stopped, gently touching the injury at the comer of his mouth.
“How could
Lenora couldn’t help but let out a laugh.
It was the first time she had seen Zachary in such a disheveled state.
Zachary glanced over.
Lenora quickly wiped the smile from her face and casually mentioned the name of a restaurant. They have private rooms,” she added, in case he didn’t want to meet anyone in his current disheveled state.
Zachary gave her a knowing look and instructed Miles to make a reservation.
Once they arrived at the private dining room in the restaurant, Lenora ordered a few dishes and handed the menu over to Zachary who was sitting across. “See if there’s anything else you’d like to add,” she said.
Zachary took it from her. “Lamb stew?”
“Mm–hmm.” Lenora nodded. “I’ll eat it. I’ll have the waiter bring it over to me later.”
“You like lamb
“Yes.”
Lenora had a fondness not only for mutton but also for lamb broth. The rich, creamy broth, paired with the refreshing taste of chopped green onions and cilantro, was simply delectable.
However, Zachary had a distaste for the flavor of lamb. In the past, nothing related to lamb had ever made an appearance in his home.
Zachary paused for a moment.
Many of the dishes he had ordered from the menu were his favorites, or were suitable for his current stomach condition.
She knew his tastes well, yet the dishes she favored that he could accurately order were few and far
between.
Apart from the grilled fish and the Black Forest cake.
Moreover, she no longer fancied Black Forest cake.
They were married for three years, and it was only upon their divorce that he discovered her fondness for
lamb.
From the outset of their marriage, he was never truly present.
Even if she didn’t like him, she still treated him with sincerity.

He simply didn’t seize the opportunity to be with her
A wave of bittersweet sorrow washed over Zachary as he flipped through the men “” you like? Order anything, don’t mind me
Lenora chuckled. “There’s so much food I enjoy, I wore he side to finish in all in ejer order these for today?
In reality, everything he enjoyed eating, she also loved
The infatuation of a young girl often comes with a toud of loving everything worse with for chip of her affection.
Whenever they dined at the Fuller residence, she would always subtly nerve which takes sepies Then, after a few minutes, she would casually pick up a monel of food from the meat and netry
In the past, she found the usual food to be mundane. But in that moment, it was as if a filter had been applied to her taste buds, and the food suddenly became incredibly delicion Gradually, the found herself falling in love with it.
Zachary pursed his lips, handing the menu to the
Once the waiter left, Lenora crossed her legs. “Can we discuss the terms now?
Zachary leaned back, his eyes relaxed, as he rested against the chair with his arms crossed ever his chest “So, you’re really that keen to know what leverage Susanna hold?”
“Of course,”
“How about this?” Zachary raised an eyebrow. “If I say. Remarry me, and I’ll tell you, what do you think
Lenora’s expression hardened. “Would you consider changing the terms?”
She hadn’t expected him to be so direct.
Zachary shook his head. “No, these are my terms. If you don’t agree, then there’s nothing I can do.”
Lenora pursed her lips, her gaze lowered in thought.
To remarry Zachary for the sake of two so–called advantages?
No matter how she looked at it, Zachary had the upper hand.
Although it seemed that Zachary genuinely liked her–after all, he used her leverage to negotiate with Susanna–Lenora felt grateful for his support. However, she had no plans to remarry him at the moment
Seeing her hesitation, Zachary expected it, yet he still felt somewhat disappointed.
However, he wasn’t too disappointed about it, as his initial intention was to dissuade her by proposing remarriage.
If she really agreed, he would be in a predicament–he simply couldn’t reveal the truth to her, no matter
what.

“How about it? Have you decided?” Zachary asked again “I’ll give you three minutes to think it over. If you don’t agree within these three minutes, even if you agree later, the deal will be off”
With surprise, Lenora lifted her gaze, shooting Zacharya glance. “Zachary, did you never intend to tell me from the start?”
“Of course not.” Zachary smiled. “Why would you think that? Weren’t you able to date Connor for some information before? What’s the matter? You can’t do it now?”
Lenora’s expression stiffened, her eyes flickering as she averted her gaze. “It’s not the same,” she said.
What’s the difference?” Zachary asked earnestly.
Every time he thought about the matter, it made him so furious that it was almost physically painful.
With downcast eyes, Lenora nervously pursed her lips. I was just avenging my father…”
Moreover, to put it bluntly, it was precisely because she had no affection for Connor that she was able to exploit him rationally.
But Zachary was different.
She didn’t dare.
She didn’t dare to remarry Zachary simply because of what some might call leverage.
“So, you’d dare do anything for the sake of avenging your father? Nora, Fernando’s spirit surely wouldn’t want to see you like this. I believe, he would rather see you living well.”
Lenora responded, sounding as meek as a wronged young wife, “Mhm.”
“Thankfully, you received the news early and logically ended things with Connor. But, have you ever considered what if things hadn’t gone so smoothly?”
“Then I’ll come up with something else…”
Lenora’s voice gradually faded, cautiously lifting her eyes to meet Zachary’s gaze. The last few words she spoke were barely a whisper.
Zachary’s face was stern. “Hmm, I remember you mentioning that Connor was handsome, optimist, and ambitious. You said you liked him a lot and asked me to stop bothering you, right?”
Lenora’s face flushed red, she blinked and scrambled for an explanation. Ul. I was… I was just afraid of raising suspicion, so I had to make my act more convincing…”
“You even said you’d use the money I gave you to support him, telling me not to overestimate myself.”
Lenora was caught off guard.
At that moment, she desperately wished to bury herself in a hole. “It was all a joke… Just a joke…”
“Heh, you clearly got the news you wanted. On New Year’s Eve, I asked you to break up with Connor, but you refused. If I hadn’t used both carrot and stick, who knows, you two might still be…

Lenora’s ears turned red. She dared not look at Zachary, as she tried to defend herself. “No… I was
planning to break up with him, it’s just that you arrived unexpectedly…”
“So, you’ve changed your mind? Lenora, are you deliberately using him to provoke me?”
Lenora abruptly clamped her mouth shut,
She had slipped up.
She shook her head in denial. “No, that’s not it…
She wasn’t trying to provoke him with Connor, instead she wanted to use Connor as a shield, to make him back off.
“Heh
Zachary stared at her with a profound intensity.
Lenora kept quiet at that.
She felt a chill run down her spine under the intense gaze.
It was so stifling.
Clearing her throat subtly, Lenora shifted the topic. “The conditions you proposed earlier require careful consideration on my part. Three minutestis just too short…”
“So, have you considered remarrying me?”
“No.”
“Why didn’t you just reject me then?”
Lenora was at a loss for words.
She let out a soft huff, casting Zachary a sidelong glance. “Forget it. Maybe you and Susanna are conspiring against me, making up this whole thing!”
“Thinking like that works too,” he said.
Lenora rolled her eyes, feeling a nagging irritation.
He had absolutely no intention of telling her!
Zachary glanced at her. “Lenora, there are things that are better off unknown to you. I don’t want you to write a settlement agreement to Susanna because of this.”
He didn’t want to let Susanna, the murderer, off the hook without any consequence.
Of course, even if she did write a settlement agreement, it was specifically regarding this incident,
The truth about her father’s affairs would soon be revealed, and by then, Susanna wouldn’t be able to escape.
