Chapter 499

Just as Zachary finished handling his affairs and was driving home, his phone rang—it was Vivian calling.

His hand hovered over the answer button, but he hesitated to press it.

"Zachary, Vivian likes you. You should see that by now. The reason she returned this time was for you." That was the voice of Mr. Wilson, his face ever so hypocritical.

"Zac, what exactly is your relationship with Miss Sanders?" That was a gentle, composed face, yet deep in her eyes lurked a suppressed madness-cold and merciless.

Behind him was his grandfather's voice, offering words of measured caution. "The matter with the Wilsons is something you'll have to decide for yourself. If Wilson approaches me, I won't turn him away. But how you handle it is up to you."

"Bro, you can't give up on Sarah! Didn't you say you'd bring her back to be my sister-in-law? Brother?"
