Zachary took a deep breath before explaining, “Susann was missing. She could have been in danger…
Upon hearing his words, Lenora felt a profound sense of helplessness.
She needed Zachary to understand that Susanna’s well–being was not her concern. This wasn’t an excuse. she should feel sympathetic toward.
From the way Susanna had spoken to her that morning, there was no indication whatsoever of her being sick..
However, if she were to voice her thoughts, he would accuse her of lacking empathy.
“Even if her life wasn’t at risk, you’d still go. You care about her, so stop pretending you don’t,” Lenora said. “Besides, I don’t owe you any explanations.”
“I know you have feelings for Jonas, but now isn’t the right time for you to see him, let alone bring him to meet Grandpa…”
“What are you talking about? You met Susanna at such a critical time and even brought her to see Grandpa. I simply learned from you.”
“Susanna fell ill, so I had no choice but to bring her here to calm her down. You’d mentioned before that once Grandpa was moved to the general ward, we could bring her over. So, what’s upsetting you now?” Zachary asked, his confusion evident.
Lenora had never expected that Zachary would speak of this matter with such unabashed confidence.
Her husband had been lured away by a single phone call from another woman, staying out all night. The next day, he had the audacity to introduce this woman to his grandparents and still had the nerve to question why she was upset.
To him, Susanna’s illness took precedence. When she fell ill, he felt obligated to calm her down–a valid reason, indeed.
Yet, he never considered soothing Lenora’s emotions. Instead, he accused her of lacking empathy.
With a smile, Lenora said, “Oh, I forgot to mention, Jonas has been frail since childhood. He can’t handle stress. Since he wanted to visit Grandpa, I had to agree to calm him down. I hope you can understand. Surely, you can show a bit of empathy, right?”
Zachary’s expression stiffened. “LenoralTM
“What’s the matter?” Lenora raised an eyebrow at him. Isn’t this perfectly, normal? Mr. Fuller, I don’t -understand what you’re so upset about.”
Lenora, I’m not joking with you!” Zachary frowned.
“I’m not joking with you either,” Lenora said seriously.
“You’re deliberately p*ssing me off, aren’t you?”

Lenora chuckled. “Why would I want to p*ss you ofl?”
“Lenora, don’t forget what you promised Grandpal”
Lenora hadn’t expected that Zachary would use Gerald’s words to pressure her.
She found it quite amusing.
“I only promised Grandpa that I would get along with you.”

As Zachary’s expression grew increasingly grim, Lenora curved her lips slightly. “Mr. Fuller, these were your exact words yesterday. If you can spend a night with your lover without returning, why can’t I? Before you accuse me, take a look at what you’ve done yoursel
Zachary fell silent for a moment. “I’m sorry if that bothers you, but yesterday–was unavoidable. I never meant to break my promise to Grandpa.”
Lenora looked at him with a mocking expression. “Zachary, you’ve completely missed Grandpa’s point! He wanted us to genuinely get along, hoping it might change our minds about divorce, not just put on a harmonious show for him!”
“I know.”
“Oh, really? Tell me, have you ever considered completely giving up on Susanna, staying away from her,” and not divorcing me?”
Seeing Zachary remaining silent, Lenora gave a smile. Why aren’t you-
“I have,” Zachary interrupted her, looking straight into her eyes. D
Lenora’s words caught in her throat.
She observed Zachary’s serious expression, attempting to detect any signs of deceitfulness in his demeanor.
But no matter how hard she tried, she just couldn’t see it.
“Zachary, stop lying.”
“I’m not.” Zachary slowly stepped forward, standing firm before Lenora. “I’ve seriously thought about staying away from her and never divorcing you for the rest of my life.”
Lenora looked up, meeting his eyes. Her heart was in turmoil.
Upon regaining her composure, she asked, “Okay, then answer this, if Susanna calls you again, telling you she’s ill or missing, will you go?”
Zachary fell into silence for a moment.
Lenora could see his hesitation, a mocking smile playing on her lips. “You’ve only thought about it. We’ll talk when you’re ready to do something about it. Now, off you go. I need to rest.”
If he continued to behave as he was, leaving at Susannas every beck and call, then his thoughts would be

She didn’t want a husband who could be called away by another woman at any given moment. Zachary was the best at putting on a show. She would no longer believe him.
“It’s only nine o’clock, and you’re already resting?”
“I’m a bit tired today”
“Do you want to relax?”
“Relax?” Lenora looked up at him.
“Yeah.”
He stood with his back to the light, his entire face shrouded in shadows, making it difficult to discern his expression.
“How?”
“Stay seated and don’t move.”
Zachary knelt on one knee before Lenora, his large hand resting on her thigh, gently sliding up against her skin.
The heat from his hand was intense as he gently caressed her.
A tingling sensation shot straight to her brain, causing her to shudder. She bit her lower lip.
Zachary studied her expression, gently lifting the hem of her dress and slowly venturing further.
“Stop!” Lenora held his hand.
“Don’t you want it?” Zachary looked into her eyes, slowly withdrew his hand, and stood up.
Lenora lowered her gaze, her legs pressing closer together.
Zachary turned around and walked away.
Lenora clenched the hem of her dress. She wanted to say something, but nothing came out.
Suddenly, the sound of water came from the bathroom.
Lenora looked up and noticed that the bathroom door was open, Zachary hadn’t left. He had simply gone to the bathroom.
A moment later, Zachary emerged from within, wiping his hands, his gaze settling on Lenora.
Lenora quickly lowered her head.
Zachary gave a slight chuckle before kneeling on one knee again in front of Lenora. “I’ve rinsed my mouth.”

His fingers landed on her thigh, a gentle chill seeping in. She shivered slightly, her fingers tightening around the hem of her dress.
Zachary took her hand effortlessly and moved it aside. He then held her knees gently, parting them. “All you need to do is enjoy.”
Lenora licked the corner of her lips.
Perhaps it was his advances last night that left her wanting more.
Her desires surged rather quickly.
She leaned against the back of the couch, closing her eyes. Her breathing gradually became heavier.
She bit her lower lip, holding back any sounds.
Upon reaching the climax, she let out a soft hum and found her hands threading through his hair.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door from outside. “Ms. Wilkin, are you in there? Is it convenient for a check–up?
Lenóra shuddered in fear.
She wasn’t at the hospital last night or this morning. It would be unacceptable if the nurses didn’t make their rounds tonight.
At that moment, she felt an overwhelming sense of relief. Thankfully, it was a private hospital where the nurses provided excellent service and wouldn’t carelessly enter and exit a single patient’s room.
“Tell her to go first, Zachary said, lifting his head.
Lenora gritted her teeth and took a deep breath. “I’m sorry… It’s not a good time now… Can you… come back later…
“All right.”
The sound of the nurse’s footsteps faded away.
Lenora let out a sigh of relief. A flash of white light flickered in her mind, and her body trembled as her strength drained away.
Zachary wiped the liquid off his face, grabbed a wet wipe from the table to clean eñora, and then headed to the bathroom to rinse his mouth.
When he emerged from the bathroom, Lenora was leaning lazily against the back of the couch, a look of contentment on her face. “You should go now. I need to rest.”
“All right. Goodnight.”
Zachary slowly walked away, casually closing the door behind him for Lenora
Lenora gazed at the tightly shut door, then rested on the couch for a while before pressing the bell to call the nurse over.
