Chapter 56

Wendy's eyes widened in shock. Her fingers tightened around the ring on her hand, gripping it so hard her knuckles turned white.

She had seen this ring in Zach's pocket a few days ago. She thought it was meant for her and had slipped it on happily, and Zach hadn't said a word.

But now... It turned out to be something Serena didn't want. Did that mean he could just hand something Serena discarded to her?

Wendy's chest heaved with anger as humiliation was churning inside her like a storm. Tears welled in her eyes as she stared at Zach.
