Chapter 49 Countermeasure

Even though Zack appeared to be a bit childish compared to Jonathan, who had a more noble and graceful air around him, Zack was still charmingly handsome.

He had a dashing look, and he carried the energy that young people had, which made him the type of person who would easily tempt others to fall for him.

However, at that moment, he was wearing a cold expression, colder than a fall’s breeze. After glancing at Lucille arrogantly for a moment, he shifted his line of sight away.

Zack’s steeled look stunned Lucille a little. Suddenly, countless questions rushed into her mind, though she had to pretend to be calm. “What happened, Zack? We can resolve it together if you let me know what’s bothering you.”

His expression was neutral as he stared annoyingly at the anticipating look in her eyes with slightly furrowed eyebrows.

 

Her eyes immediately became wet when she saw the change in his expression. “Did I do something wrong, Zack? Tell me what’s wrong and I’ll do it better. I promise I’ll change, okay? I love you. You’re the only one I have left. I can’t leave you, so don’t chase me away, okay? Back then, you promised to take care of me. Do you not want me anymore? In that case, why did you give me hope? There must be some misunderstanding, Zack. Say something! You’re scaring me.”

Fear and anxiety colored her face as tears streamed down her cheeks. Her voice sounded like she was choking. She grabbed his shirt tightly with her cold, small hands.

 

He tried to pull away from her, but he failed each time.

The reason he still acted in a pretty reasonable manner, despite feeling disappointed with her actions, was because she was technically his first true lover.

He looked away and uttered firmly in a hoarse voice, “You know what you did. I’m showing you mercy right now, so stop asking and leave!”

If he hadn’t made his way to Shappiray Mansion impulsively last night, he wouldn’t have known there was a hidden camera in his and Michaela’s mansion, and that Lucille was the one who installed it.
