Chapter 444 Where Did You Go Wrong

"Nora," Zachary said with a look of helplessness. "I truly realize my mistake now."

"So, where do you think you went wrong?"

"I shouldn't have taken it upon myself to put up a charade alongside Susanna and distance myself from you. I should have communicated with you and respected your choices."

With a snigger, Lenora asked, "Since you knew everything, why did you still choose to do that?"

"Nora, I couldn't put your safety at risk."

"Then, you could have told me the truth. Just like you arranged for Grandma and Hattie to leave the country, you could have done the same for me. I'm not unreasonable; I won't hold you back. After all is said and done, Zachary, you still don't trust me. When we were at Folask Hospital, I stayed by your side all the time, so you were afraid I would refuse to leave and become a burden to you. You were afraid I'd disrupt your plans..."

"Nora," Zachary interrupted her, his hands resting on her shoulders, his gaze locked earnestly with hers, and his words laden with sincerity. "I've never thought that way. You've never been a burden to me, but rather, the one I've always gone all out to protect." "You have indeed protected me, yet you refused to respect me..."

Zachary was truly at her mercy now. "Nora, I'm really sorry. I won't do it again."

"Do you really understand your mistake?" Lenora looked up at him.

"Mmm-hmm."

"Promise me, if anything happens in the future, you'll let me know?" "Definitely."

"Why do I still feel unconvinced?"

Zachary was rendered speechless before declaring, "I can swear on it."

"There's no need to go that far, and it's meaningless to do so. I'll let your own conscience hold you to it."

Lenora lowered her gaze. "Zachary, I know you mean well. I'm telling you this because I want you to understand that what you think is good for me, isn't actually what I want. Do you know how I felt when I saw you with Susanna at the office that day? I was so distraught that I could have died. In that moment, I thought you had deceived me again. If I had a knife then, I could have stabbed you and then taken my own life. After leaving Fuller Group, I headed to the riverbank. Suddenly, there was a moment when I felt a strong urge to jump

Zachary's voice was hoarse as he held her tightly and buried his head into the crook of her neck. "I'm sorry. I was truly wrong."

He was solely focused on not involving her, yet he overlooked the emotional damage his actions had inflicted upon her.
