Chapter 17

Chapter 17 Shameful Secret

Abruptly yanking Stella’s clothes off, Zane pinned her onto the sofa. Her sexy collarbone and creamy skin were bared to his sight, so he wanted to kiss her hard. However, the moment he glimpsed her ivory body, he was reminded of the man who once had her.

Beneath him, Stella was fervently pleading with him as she struggled, her hair a tangled mess.

Zane desired her greatly, but two forces were at war within him. That man whom I’ve never met has defeated me from the very beginning, and I’ve suffered a sound defeat!

At this time, Stella had started weeping, her tears soaking the sofa.

“Why can’t I have you when I’m your husband? What’s with this unwilling expression of yours? Are you even my wife?” Zane’s voice was colored with fury.

Upon seeing that his impulsiveness had faded, Stella finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At this precise moment, the doorbell rang. Straightening his clothes, Zane went to open the door. He only wore a white shirt at home, and his hair was currently slightly mussed, while a corner of his shirt was untucked from his pants. On the other hand, Stella hastily wiped her tears and smoothened her hair before getting to her feet. However, she happened to come face to face with Miles in the next instance, upon which her expression turned a touch stunned.

Miles stared at her flushed face and messy hair. Despite her having tried her best to conceal her flustered condition, some things only became increasingly obvious the more one tried to cover it up. After all, she radiated a sense of panic and dishabille, as did Zane, so it was as though the two of them had been making passionate love.

Because of his arrival, Stella merely greeted him before hiding out in her own room.

“This is the settlement agreement.” Miles had come to hand this to Zane, so he placed the settlement agreement on the table.
