Chapter 442 The Father Of Her Child

Halfway through, Lenora had taken a trip to the restroom. Upon her return, she heard an argument taking place in the main hall. Not wanting to return to the private room, she decided to linger by the stairway entrance and watch the scene unfold. She quickly understood the situation.

It was a tale of two women vying for the attention of one man.

The man was originally in a relationship with one of the women, but he cheated with another woman and wanted to break up with his girlfriend.

Surprisingly, his girlfriend didn't agree. She professed her deep love for her boyfriend, stating that she didn't mind his infidelity. Even if he were to maintain contact with the other woman in the future, she claimed that it wouldn't bother her. Lenora couldn't believe her ears. Such people actually exist?

Having had her fill of the drama, Lenora slowly started to walk back, a sudden realization dawning upon her.

It seems as though I have overlooked something.

Be it Connor or Richard, when Lenora saw their intimate photos with other women, and was forced by Zachary to break up, she felt no sadness. It was as if it had nothing to do with her.

The truth is, I have never really liked them in the first place. Perhaps, Zachary had also noticed this, which is why he is fearless and confident enough to scheme against those two men.

It was then that Lenora understood, what truly upset Zachary was not that she had found a boyfriend, but that she had fallen in love with someone else.

Her boyfriends might have easily fallen for Zachary's schemes, but her heart wouldn't be that easy to win back.

How would Zachary react if I were to be heartbroken over Richard, to the point of despair?

Suddenly, someone tapped her on the shoulder.

""Nor..."

Lost in her thoughts, Lenora was startled by the interruption.

She turned around and saw Zachary. She let out a sigh of relief, patting her chest. "What's wrong with you? You scared me to death."

"I've been meaning to ask, what have you been up to? You've been gone for so long and was mumbling to yourself over there, seemingly lost in thought."

Lenora lowered her head, feeling a little guilty. "I wasn't thinking about anything," she said. "There was just a quarrel downstairs earlier, and I went to check it out." "They've already left. We should go too. I'll take you home."

"Mm-hmm."

In the backseat of the car, Lenora stole a glance at Zachary. Pretending to be engrossed in her phone, she let out a dejected sigh. Concerned, Zachary asked, "What's wrong?"
