His Unveiled Passion

Jodie took a sip of her tequila before saying with a smile, "Wendy, I heard Tessa's got herself a boyfriend now. Does that mean things are looking good between you and Zachary?"

Everyone in their social circle was well aware of Zachary's suicide attempt and exactly why he did it. So, there was no way Jodie hadn't heard about it.

Jodie only posed that question to trip Wendy up.

Wendy knew Jodie was trouble, but still!

Her face twisted into a snarl before she composed herself and replied, "Not really. Zachary's company has just gotten back on track. He's been so swamped with work recently that he barely has any time for me."

"Is that so?" Jodie tittered. "Oh, that's right. I did hear something about Zachary getting himself admitted into the hospital. He must've collapsed due to exhaustion. Gosh, I've been so busy recently that I couldn't spare a moment to visit him at Rivertown.
