Chapter 449 Waiting For Someone

Zachary interrupted her, "I brought her over. I was worried she'd get implicated because of me."

Tamara's expression cracked for a brief moment before she furiously exclaimed, "Zack, do you like her so much that you'd resort to such an excuse? Aren't you afraid she'll rekindle her old flame? Don't forget, they have a child together!" Tamara was implying something significant.

A sharp glint flashed in Zachary's eyes as his hand that was resting on the armrest clenched tightly for a moment before relaxing. "You're overthinking, Aunt Tamara. I have people protecting her. I know exactly who she's been in contact with. But from the way you're speaking, you seem to know who that person is. Is he from Fairlake?"

Tamara let out a light laugh and shook her head. "I don't know. But I clearly remember meeting her in June. Her belly looked about seven or eight months along, so she must've gotten pregnant after coming here."

In the photo, Lenora was wearing a dress, and it did seem to be summer.

Zachary had already chosen to accept it, and since Lenora knew nothing about it, he naturally wouldn't show anything in front of her. Yet, every time he thought about it or saw her, he couldn't help but feel a sting of bitterness in his heart.

His expression tensed as he lowered his gaze. "Let's not bring this up again. Aunt Tamara, I thought you invited me out because you missed me and wanted to catch up. If you're going to talk about this, I'm afraid I can't stay."

Seeing how protective Zachary was of Lenora, Tamara seethed in anger inwardly.

If she had known it would come to this, she would have found a way to get rid of Lenora when the Fuller family first adopted her!

Yet, Zachary wasn't particularly filial to her, so she couldn't afford to fall out with him completely.

Tamara had no choice but to suppress her anger. She exhaled loudly. "Fine, let's not talk about her. You don't know how worried I was when I heard you were in trouble. I even returned to the country and called in every favor I could. Thankfully, you're all right." "Thank you, Aunt Tamara."

Zachary believed Tamara's words.

Aside from the disagreements regarding Lenora, Tamara had always been kind to him.

"There's no need to thank me. You're my child. How could I stand by and do nothing when you're in trouble?"

When Lenora wasn't mentioned, the conversation between them was relatively harmonious.

Tamara asked about Allison and Harrietta, and Zachary answered her questions in detail.

Before they knew it, more than an hour had passed.

Their reunion was coming to an end.

Zachary glanced at his watch and said, "It's getting late. Aunt Tamara, where are you staying? I'll take you home."

"No need. I've made plans to meet a friend. You go ahead." Tamara waved him off.

Tamara had initially come to this area to meet a friend, which was when she happened to encounter the pregnant Lenora and took the photo.
