A Beautiful Misunderstanding

"It will only be right that I'll be with you to celebrate the new year with my in-laws. If I don't, then won't they ask you questions? What are you going to do then?" explained Zac.

That's right. Thinking about this, Essie reluctantly nodded. Since her parents knew about it now, then they shouldn't get divorced in such a short period of time. That would only lead to suspicion. Her mother would be the most concerned about her marriage. Given her spot checks from time to time, she would definitely notice if Zac wasn't living in her apartment anymore.

If they found out that they would get divorced after such a short period of time, they would think that she was treating marriage like a game. Lucy would hate this so much that she might even take her back to her hometown. At that point, Essie would be strictly guarded and all her freedom would be gone in a blink of an eye.

She sighed helplessly. "Fine."

Zac smiled to himself. He should be very filial to his in-laws to pass the test that they had set up for him.

"Thanks." With a small smile, Zac stood up and patted the man's shoulder. He introduced William to Essie, who was stunned at the man's sudden arrival. "This is my friend, William Mai."

"You're very beautiful. Zac has good taste," William complimented. Since his boss asked him to pretend that he was his friend, he had to put on a perfect show.

Essie gazed at the man up and down. William was very handsome.
