Chapter 99
Recently, Zachary had been running around to secure investments
The companies in Riverton were unlikely to invest in Gomer Group, so he had to explore opportunities elsewhere. Most of his time Lately was spent in hotels and on airplanes.
That day, he had just arrived back in Rivertown, and Zion came to pick him up
It was each evening, and they were on their way to dinner
ara red light, Zion glanced at Zachary, who was flipping through old photos of him and Tessa.
Zion’s lips parted as if he wanted to say something, but be hesitated
Before hecould speak, Zachary leaned over and showed him lus phone,
e, his expression soft and bull of emotion. “Look at how happy we were back then.”
Zion’s expression grew complicated.
Last time, Zachary had asked him to buy a ring, saying he intended to win back.
At the time, Zachary mentioned that Tessa was about to get engaged. He had also said it would be immoral to go after someone else’s fiancée
Since retuming to Rivertown, he didn’t dare ask Zachary about Tessa
Etse Tessa left Haverford, Zion had never seen her, nor did he know anything about her fiancé
However, during his time spent with Zachary recently, he could sense that his friend smiled far less often
In the past, Zachary had always been the life of the party at gatherings. But now, he would drink alone in silence more often than not. When drunk, he would call out Tessa’s name and be filled with sorrow.
At that moment, Zachary was looking at their old photos with a rare smile, seemingly lost in his memories, deceiving himself to no end.
Zion felt like Zachary was losing himself. He wanted to ask if he’d given her the ring but couldn’t bring himself to say it
In the end, Zion could only let out a deep sigh
The red lighted green just like that
The driver stepped on the gas, and the car moved forward
Finally, Zion couldn’t hold back any longer and said, “Zachary, as your friend, Thave to advise you. You had a great relationship with Tessa, but she has a fiancé now, so don’t do anything immoral”
“Immoral? Zachary scoffed dismissively. “I’ve told you before I don’t care about morality. I just want her by my side.””
Zion frowned in displeasure and continued to advise, “She’s about to get married, so how could you
Zachary remained indifferent. “Zon, don’t you know how things are in our circle? How many married couples do you know play around outside? Isn’t that pretty common?
Zion was silent for a moment before replying, “Common doesn’t make it right.”
Zachary’s face darkened, and he didn’t respond.
Zion said nothing more. He realized that someone without a sense of morality couldn’t be restrained by
To him, Zachary was pathetic. He didn’t cherish Tessa when he had her, and only regretted it after losing her.
The car soon entered the bustling downtownarra. It was currently rush hour, and traffic was backed up with along line of cars
Zachary casually leaned back, staring klly our of the window, lost in his thoughts
Suddenly, hespected a familiar figure
“Stop the car Zachary shouted.
Zion was confused as he asked, “What?
Seeing Zachary stare out of the window, Zion followed his gaze and froze.
In an instant, he understood why Zachary demanded the car to stop.
On the sidewalk, Tessa was walking with a man
Both of them were walking in their direction, close enough for their faces to be clearly seen.
The man was handsome, exuding an air of refinement. His attire was impeccable, clearly indicating he wasn’t agendinary person. They were talking and laughing their demeanor intimate
