Chapter 51

Zachary thought about Tessa every day and night after she had left him.

He realized now just how foolish he had been. It was only after she left that he realized she was the one he truly loved.

His heart ached as he reflected on the times he had neglected Tessa for Wendy. He couldn't forget all the hurtful words he had said to her.

Suddenly, he remembered that Tessa had always dreamed of marrying him.

But he had shattered that dream of hers with his cruel words. He told her he could never marry her.

What if he asked her now? Would she come back to him?

The possibility sparked a glimmer of hope in Zachary's eyes.

If he made her his wife, surely she would forgive him and return to his side.
