She is truly fond of Jonas, even to the point of breaking her own principles.
“Is there anything else?” Lenora asked.
“What did you all do last night?”
“I have no obligation to explain to you.”
This was the exact phrase that Zachary had once told her. Now, it was returned to him.
Zachary frowned, rubbing his brow, his tone intensifying. “Lenora, don’t let your emotion cloud your judgment!“.
Clearly, affection had blinded Lenora, making her unable to heed the words spoken to he
He wished for Lenora to be happy, but he firmly believed that Jonas was simply not the rig person for her.
“How did I let emotions cloud my judgment?”
“I care about you. Jonas might not be the right person for you. I hope you’ll seriously consider this and not just brush it off. Don’t do something you can’t undo!”
“What is it? What are you referring to? An affair? Lenora raised an eyebrow.
Zachary remained silent.
“Rest assured. I wouldn’t dishonor you before our divorce is finalized. But you… I suppose I’m the one blatantly being cuckolded, no?” Lenora sheered, then turned and walked away.
Her grandparents were genuine, down–to–earth farmers, and her father was a righteous journalist. She was sixteen when she came to the Fuller family, and her basic beliefs had already taken shape.
The simple–minded notions held by Lenora made it impossible for her to commit an act of infidelity within her marriag
Morality was meant to restrain the common people, not the wealthy.
In this circle, an affair like infidelity was hardly considered anything out of the ordinary.

Watching the glass door close, Zachary couldn’t help but laugh out of frustration.
Lenora’s words were now laced with thorns, even mocking him for making a fool of her in their relationship.
She knew well that he was the same kind of person as her.
He would not repeat the mistakes of his parents.
The internal line phone rang.
Zachary snapped back to reality, straightened his posture, and picked up the receiver. “What’s the matter?”
Miles said on the other end of the phone, “Mr. Fuller, do you have time now? Regarding the terms in the contract with Trisource Company, Mr. Forley would like to confirm with you.”
Zachary glanced at his watch. “Let him in.”
“All right.”
The sound of knocking echoed at the door, and Tristan, clutching a folder, pushed his way in. “Mr. Fuller,” he greeted.
“Have a seat.” Zachary leaned back in his chair, gesturing toward the swivel chair opposite. him.
“All right. Mr. Fuller, I have a few questions about the cooperation agreement with Trisource Company…”
Tristan sat down across from Zachary, opened the folder in his hand, and pointed out his questions one by one.
Zachary patiently explained each point.
Suddenly, Tristan’s phone began to ring.
He quickly pulled out his phone, intending to hang up, but upon seeing the number on the screen, he hesitated.
The call had come from the police station.
Zachary closed his fountain pen. “Go ahead.”
“Thank you, Mr. Fuller.”

The police officer on the other end of the phone said, “Is this Mr. Forley? We have retrieved the surveillance footage from the dinner party and found that Ms. Wilkin had a brief interaction with the suspect, Dawn, before she fell into the water. Dawn confessed that Ms. Wilkin had argued and insulted her, and in her indignation, she pushed Ms. Wilkin. Is it convenient for Ms. Wilkin to come to the police station to give a statement? If not, we can send someone to the hospital…”
“Officer, I apologize for the inconvenience. Lenora is fine now. I will inform her immediately to make a trip to the police station.”
Tristan hung up the phone and walked over. “I apologize, Mr. Fuller. I had a personal matter to attend to. Let’s continue.”
“What’s wrong? Is Lenora okay?” Zachary asked, his gaze lowered, seemingly indifferent.
Tristan was aware that the two were siblings and told them the truth. “Yesterday, Ms. Wilkin attended a charity dinner, where she was pushed into the swimming pool by some reckless. individual. She was in the hospital last night, and it was inconvenient for her, so she asked me to help her deal with the police station. Now, the person has been caught, and they need her to go to the police station to give a statement.”
Zachary nodded, gesturing toward the documents on the table, “Continue,” he said.
“Right, where were we? Ah yes, here at the thirty–first clause…”
Twenty minutes later, Tristan neatly organized the documents and placed them into the folder.
“Mr. Fuller, I’ll take my leave now.”
“Okay.”
Tristan stood up and walked to the door. Behind him, Zachary’s voice echoed, “There’s no- need for you to go over to Lenora’s place. I’ll talk to her.”
“Okay. I appreciate your help, Mr. Fuller.”
Tristan left the office.
After a moment, a knock was heard from outside the office door.
Immersed in his work, Lenora didn’t even lift her head as she said, “Come in.”
Footsteps made their way in.

“What happened?”

After a long period of silence, Lenora looked up, only to realize that Zachary was standing in front of the desk, watching her.
Taken aback, Lenora stood up. “Mr. Fuller, how come you’re here?”
Zachary looked at her. “Mr. Forley asked me to tell you that you need to go to the police station to give a statement.”
“Oh, I understand. I’ll go as soon as I finish my work. Is there anything else, Mr. Fuller?”
“Why wasn’t I informed about such an incident?”
Lenora slowly raised her head, calmly looking at him. “It’s not a big deal. There’s no need to mention it.”
“Lenora!”
“What?”
Zachary furrowed his brows. “Why do you distance yourself when I’m just showing concern for you?”
“Last night, you left without a word with Susanna. You had the entire night to call, inform, and show concern, but you didn’t. I’m fine now, so what’s the use of your concern?”
To Zachary, she was nothing more than a pet, only remembered when he was bored.
Lenora recalled Dawn asking her, “Zachary, being the person he is, must have spent a lot of money on you, right?”
Suddenly, she had an answer. Three years of financial support, twenty million, two villas- was it too much?
With such assets, one would never have to worry for the rest of their life.
Zachary remained silent.
The office had fallen into silence.
Zachary raised his hand to adjust his collar, then sat on the couch. “I apologize. Did you get hurt last night, apart from falling into the water?”
Lenora shook her head. “No?”
Zachary instinctively explained, “Yesterday, Susanna suddenly fell ill…”

Lenora’s eyes flickered, as she recalled the medical report of Susanna she had once seen at
home.
Did Susanna have any illness?
However, in the Twitter post she saw yesterday, she didn’t notice anything amiss about
Susanna.
Zachary said to her, “Let’s go. I’ll accompany you to the police station.”
“No need. I can manage on my own.”
“I’ll accompany you.” Zachary insisted..
The two of them, one leading and the other following left the office and headed toward the elevator.
Lola stepped out of the office to use the restroom, and upon seeing the two individuals leaving together, a flicker of jealousy crossed her face.
Since the incident with public opinion last time, the relationship between Lenora and Zachary remained as before. However, it was her who could clearly sense Zachary’s indifference toward her when she entered his office to report on her work.
She had truly underestimated Lenora!
After some thought, Lola sent a message to Susanna.
Lenora and Zachary arrived at the underground garage together and got into the car.
The driver had started the car and was about to pull away when Zachary’s phone began to ring.
Zachary glanced at the screen, hesitated for a moment, then answered the call. “Hello, Susanna. What? I understand. I’ll be right there.”
Zachary hung up the phone, looking apologetically at Lenora. “Lenora, I’m sorry, but I can’t accompany you to the police station. I’ll have the driver take you there,” he said.
“Mm,” Lenora responded indifferently.
Upon hearing the name Susanna, she had already anticipated the outcome.
She had once tried to intervene but only ended up humiliating herself.

Zachary looked at Lenora’s calm demeanor, pursed his lips, and felt an unusual sensation welling up within him, causing an inexplicable sense of panic.
He suppressed his emotions, pushed open the car door and got out, then drove off in another.
