Loved You Once But He's My Forever

Chapter 406 She Had Nothing to Lose

As Yael was spouting threats, Zoey interrupted him, "Regret? What the hell are you saying!"

Yael was stunned by her outburst.

He'd heard rumors about her being a woman supposedly unloved by her husband for years and driven to despair by Nina to the point of attempting suicide. Had she finally snapped and decided to go off the rails? Or had she been pushed into full-on madness?

The thought that these two men were among the killers of Chloe filled Zoey with anger. However, they couldn't do anything to her in the middle of a public space. Two grown men wouldn't resort to hitting a woman, right?

Actually, she hoped they would-if they dared, she'd play dead on the spot. She'd make sure to ruin them financially and land them in prison!

This was the classic scenario of someone who had nothing to lose.

While the Carlyn brothers excelled at sneaky attacks from the shadows, Zoey laid everything out in the open.

Come on, let's hurt each other and see who comes out on top!

She had two lives, four parents, and eight grandparents-she could afford to be cocky!

If she could take down these villains before her time was up, it would make her second chance at life worthwhile.

For Chloe, every passing day was a countdown.

But for Zoey, every day since her rebirth was a bonus.

Trading one enemy for her own life was a bargain; taking out two was a steal.

She had nothing left to fear. Her father had repented and would no longer harm her mother.

Her mother now had children and two men who deeply loved her-she would live the rest of her life in happiness.

Zoey, on the other hand, had no lover, and no dreams for the future.

She feared nothing.

Taylor tried to defuse the tension, smiling diplomatically. Since they weren't in his basement now, he had to respect the Pearsons.

"Mrs. Pearson, my brother's young and a bit overly dramatic. Don't take it to heart."

"Overly dramatic? This goes beyond that! 'Mute Girl'? What's next? Did she sell her soul to your family? I've seen bound feet, but never bound brains. Does she have no legs or no name?"
