His Unveiled Passion

Chapter 285

Zachary's eyes darkened, filled with pain. "It's my fault I didn't satisfy James, that I didn't break you two up... If I had, and James got what he wanted, he wouldn't have come after you. He wouldn't have gone after Mr. Yates and Seline..."

Tessa was confused and thought he was being absolutely ridiculous.

She let out a bitter laugh. "So you're apologizing because you didn't break me and Stephen up?"

"I..." Zachary's eyes flickered. "That's not what I meant, Tess..."

Zachary's eyes shot wide open in shock. "What? Was Seline kidnapped too?"

"It really wasn't Jacqueline who told you to call the police?" Tessa's fury boiled over. "Do you know what James said to Stephen over the phone? He said if the cops showed up, he'd kill us on the spot!
