Chapter 173 Zach’s decision
Chapter 173 Zach’s decision
Zach threw Sophia into the car and fastened the seat belt for her.
Sophia shouted, “Zach, are you crazy? What are you doing now?!”
“You’re right! I am crazy!” He growled, holding her face, “Sophia! I’m crazy for you!”
Hearing his words, Sophia looked at him in shock.
He continued, “I can’t deny it! I like you! You have stolen my heart! I won’t let you go! I won’t!”
Zach said in a firm and solemn tone. Then he could feel the tenderness of her face as well as her tears.
Sophia shook her head, “No...”
“Why?” He looked into her eyes, “You can’t deny the fact that you like me, can you? Sophia, don’t lie to yourself. You like me!”
“No…” She pulled away his hands, crying and smiling, “What about Anna? Don’t forget she is your girlfriend now.”
Anna!? Her words had wakened him from his dream. He was frozen.
She could see his expression so clearly. It was extremely obvious and cruel. She kept smiling, like she didn’t care a little, “Just stop it, Zach. I won’t be your girlfriend. I am just a plain girl. And I will never be your mistress! Never! If you can’t let her go, you should let me go! How can you tell you like me when you already have Anna?!”
She didn’t want to be a shameless mistress involving in their relationship. It was the best for everyone that she should quickly get rid of this and recover from the hurt by herself.
“Sophia...”
“Zach! Wake up!” Sophia reminded him, looking at him as a stranger. She had already calmed down. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Zach also turned to her. What he could see from her eyes was coldness and indifference. He felt a touch of panic; it was a sign of losing her.
He grasped her hand tightly, and said, “I will break up with Anna! I don’t like her anymore! I only like you!”
“Zach, do you know what you are talking about?” She laughed, and shook off his hand. “Forget what happened tonight. I am crazy, and you too. Just forget it!”
After finishing the sentence, Sophia turned around and walked away. Zach didn’t stop her this time. He didn’t say a word, just seeing her walking off.
He stayed in the car all night. When the morning came, he made up his mind, and drove directly to the Lees.
****
In the Lees’ house.
The maid opened the door and happened to see Zach who was standing outside. “Mr. Stone? How are you? Should I tell Mrs. Lee that you are here? Or you…”
But before she could finish her sentence, Zach didn’t say a word to her and ran into the house.
He had been here several times, so he knew which room was Anna’s. He walked towards her room without hesitation.
Anna’s back was hurt badly because of the punishment, so she didn’t sleep well last night. Right now she was sleepy. The next second, she saw a man rushed into her room, which scared her.
When she saw he was Zach, she was relieved, “Zach? Why are you here? It’s so early now.”
“Anna.” Zach looked at her with a serious look, “We are over.”
After telling his decision to her, he felt somewhat relieved, like finishing a mission. He took a deep breath. And the pressure torturing him days and nights seemed to disappear all of a sudden.
Anna sat up immediately, looking at him in shock, “We are over? Zach, what are you talking about?”
“I mean, we should break up!”
“Zach, are you kidding? Are you drunk? If so, you should have a rest. We will talk after you are sober. I will ask the maid to arrange a room for you now…”
“Anna!”
Zach interrupted her, “We have been wrong from the very start! Enough! It’s time to end it up!”
“But you promised to look after me! You owed me this! Zach! You can’t break up with me! You don’t have the right to break up with me!” Anna screamed, which made her look ugly and awful at this moment.
Suddenly, Elena’s words suddenly came to her mind.
“You should feel thankful that he loves you!”
“If he wakes up and doesn’t love you anymore, you will own nothing finally.”
“No...” Anna shook her head which severely ached, “No, no! It must be a joke, a terrible joke...”
Zach saw her pain and felt a bit pitiful, “Anna. Don’t lie to yourself. I know you never love me.”
She never showed him any affection. She didn’t love him at all. And now he realized that he didn’t love Anna anymore. He was sure that he loved Sophia.
“No! Zach, don’t you love me? How can you give up on me? How can you abandon me?” She grasped his arm so tightly that her nails sank into his skin.
“I am so sorry for everything. I shouldn’t had got drunk that night. And I shouldn’t …”
“Since you know you made the mistake, how can you just leave me?” She couldn’t believe that Zach would really give up on her.
She knew Zach was the last person who would leave her. She knew Zach kept eyes on her since adolescence. So she didn’t refuse him directly. Instead, she kept chasing after Logan, but meanwhile, she enjoyed being loved by Zach.
Though they hadn’t met each other when she was aboard, the moment she saw him, she knew that he still loved her.
But what made him change his mind? What made him give up on her?
Zach pulled her hand away and tried to control her by clamping her arms, “Anna! Let's be rational about this!”
She didn’t listen, and clasped his hand tightly, “Zach, I don’t want Logan anymore! I will leave him now! He is Elena’s. Don’t break up with me, please!”
Hearing her pleading, he was indifferent. He didn’t care Anna anymore. The one he loved right now was Sophia and only her.
He slowly released her arms, which made Anna panic. She wanted to catch him again, but she failed.
“It’s too late. If you tell me this earlier, I might change my mind. But now, I won’t.” Zach added, “Everything is too late. Now I wake up from my dreams. I know you won’t love me no matter what. So, I give up.”
That was the right decision for everyone.
“Zach!” Anna shouted, and hurriedly jumped out of the bed. She wanted to stop him, but he walked faster and faster. He didn’t stop for her.
When she rushed to the first floor, he had already drove the car away.
Seeing him leaving without any hesitation, she became furious, shouting with hatred and anger, “Zach! You will regret it! You will regret it!”
