Can’t Win Me Back

Chapter 1861

Upon hearing that, Zoe glared at Freddy. She examined his face which was colored with anger, all because of Lauren.

She had a feeling that Freddy’s feelings for Lauren had changed. In the past, he displayed nothing but scorn toward Lauren. However, he seemed to be green in envy over Lauren now.

“No way… I can’t let this slide!” His temples throbbed in fury. “Our families agreed on the marriage. Lauren Beckett shall be mine, and no one can take her from me!”

As he was speaking, Zoe straddled him naked without warning and slapped him twice in the face. He looked confounded. “Zoe, w-what are you doing?”

“Freddy Hodgson, that’s too much! Didn’t you vow only to love me in this life?

You said you only have me in your heart!” She glowered at him as she tightened her grip on his neck as if she wanted to suffocate him to death. “All your reactions show that you’re catching feelings for that idiot. Tell me.

Have you fallen for Lauren Beckett?”

“N-No, Zoe, I didn’t! I’m marrying her to avenge you. Everything I did was for you!” He held her waist and gasped for breath. The suffocation gradually set in, but it aroused him as well.

“I’m warning you now, Freddy.” She leaned over and slapped his cheek before threatening him through gritted teeth. “The Harpers were originally gangsters.

It’s a piece of cake for us to kill someone discreetly. Betray me, and I’ll make sure you die a horrible death. Got it?”

Freddy shuddered at her intimidation, but he couldn’t shake off the sight of Lauren in Cyrus’ arms. She had danced so gracefully that night.

The thought of it made him clench his fist indignantly.

At that moment, Zoe received a call from an unknown number. Putting on her bathrobe, she answered impatiently, “Who’s this?”

She was greeted by silence. She snapped, “Speak up! Are you a mute?”

“Zoe Harper, it sounds like you’re having a great time,” Betty rasped in a low, heavy voice that sent a shiver down Zoe’s spine.

Zoe muttered, “B-Betty Beckett? I thought you had—”

“You think I’ll never be back after Jasper sent me abroad?” Betty cackled evilly.

“Too bad! Betty Beckett is a tough one. I’m back!”

Zoe clutched her bathrobe with trembling fingers.
