The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning

Chapter 852

Cecilia slammed her hands down on the table, leaning in toward him, “The incident at Supreme World was my doing, but what you did with Fred…” Her voice trailed off, then continued, “Let’s settle this matter. My aim is to become Mrs. Jardin.”

Zach tapped off the ash from his cigarette, “Isn’t being the Deputy CEO of Jardin Corporation enough for you? Do you think you’re fit to be Mrs, Jardin?”

Cecilia burst into laughter as if she had heard a joke that was too good to be true, “Zach, you really shouldn’t be the one saying that. Remember how you treated Madelyn in her previous life? Need a reminder? You were upset that she couldn’t have kids, had an affair with me for eight years, and then brought my child into your family.” She looked at him with a mocking smile, “You only got rid of Yvonne because she found out your secret. You’re just scared. You’re afraid that Madelyn will discover the awful truth about her own brother and that you want to marry her. Now-ah!”

With that, she screamed. Zach grabbed her hair and slammed her head onto the table. His eyes were cold and angry, and his demeanor was chilling as he held her there.

“If I ever hear these words again, not only will I remove you from your position, but I’ll ensure that you experience the horror of having your tongue cut out before being sent to Sin City to work as a prostitute. You’ve known me long enough to realize I show no leniency to anyone… especially not to you. Greed is a person’s downfall.” Indeed, Cecilia had been a substantial help, which was why Zach had tolerated her up to this point.

Cecilia struggled to breathe as Zach’s grip tightened around her neck, her face turning red. Her vision started to blur from the lack of oxygen. She tried to free herself, leaving red marks on Zach’s hand, but he remained unmoved. The menacing look in his eyes sent chills down her spine. Just when she thought Zach would strangle her, he let go. As she clutched her throat and coughed, Zach calmly stood up. He took a handkerchief from his pocket, wiped his hand, and tossed it onto her.
