A Beautiful Misunderstanding

In the evening, Essie and Mandy had already gone home after long hours of shopping together. As they were about to open the door, they heard a woman's laughter echoing from the inside.

What's going on?

Puzzled by the sound, Essie immediately turned the door open.

In the living room, Zac had his arm wrapped around a woman while he was watching TV.

The woman was gorgeous. In fact, she had an angel's face, but a devil's body. She was decked in designer wear from head to toe as if she was fresh out of a branded store.

She held Zac in his arms as she leaned against his shoulders. They looked incredibly intimate.

Essie's jaw dropped. He actually made a girlfriend? Why did he never mention it?

Feeling as if she had just been struck by lightning, Mandy fell onto the ground. Luckily, Essie caught her from falling.

Zac didn't even bother to look at her. Instead, his stare was fixated on Essie. There was a flash of anger in her beautiful eyes. Although it was passing, he still noticed it.

Good. That meant that she still had feelings for him.
