Chapter 221 Spoiling Her to Death

With a small smile playing on her lips, Joey glanced at Julia.Raising an eyebrow, she asked Zachary, "How do you plan to make her apologize? Will she be drinking a toast to me or would she be kneeling before me?"She had previously slandered Emmen and stubbornly refused to apologize.Looking at Julia, Zachary nonchalantly replied, "Ms. Linton, just tell her how you would like her to apologize.""Although an apology would make me glad, it'd leave a bad taste in my mouth when I eat. I think it's best if you send her away, Mr. Gray," Joey said calmly.She didn't enjoy bullying others and, being a woman herself, felt that it was an insult to her as a woman if Julia kneeled to apologize.Zachary glanced at Henry, who quickly said to Julia, "Ms. Fisher, let's go."Chewing on her lips, Julia looked rather pitiful as she called out, "Zac—""You head back first," Zachary said."There are a few things I must tell you today, Ms. Fisher," Joey suddenly said.Although Julia felt disdain,

Chapter 222 A Forced Date

After seeing Julia off, Zachary checked into a hotel for his temporary stay.Since he had come there, he didn't intend to leave just like that.When Joey returned to the hotel after dinner, she received a WhatsApp message from Zachary."Have you checked what's in the envelope?""I didn't have time to check. Don't message me if there's nothing important."Joey decisively and utterly rejected his advances.Zachary wasn't giving up. He sent her another text, "Let's meet to have a chat. I know there's an ancient street in Riviera where we can take a stroll in the evening."Frowning at Zachary's texts, Joey took a while before typing a response."Why the rush to meet your ex-wife after your little lover left? Have you gone mad? Do you think I don't need to sleep at night or work tomorrow?"She couldn't stand Zachary anymore. They were divorced, so what game was he playing now?"Julia is not my lover. You've noticed that and gotten angry because of it, so why are you saying this?"

Chapter 223 True Intentions

Joey truly hadn't expected that to be the reason they had sought her out.She had even felt moved when Hanson awkwardlt assured her that he would protect her.Little did she know that there were additional conditions. Taking her away from her grandmother was merely the condition on the surface. Their real intention was hidden beneath that."I know you might find it hard to accept—""Do you really think I'm that fragile? I never intended to accept them, so why would I find it hard to accept what you said?" Joey interrupted Zachary.Zachary nodded lightly. "As long as you're not upset.""I don't have a deep bond with them in the first place. So, what was their purpose in getting Yvette to force me to confess my identity?" Joey asked Zachary impassively.The truth was, she didn't entirely trust Zachary, either. After all, all this information came from him.However, what would Zachary gain by deceiving her? What value could she bring to him?If he couldn't bear to let her go and

Chapter 224 It Must Be Zachary's Doing

After parting ways with Zachary, Joey immediately called Selena."Do you need something? It's late."Selena was keeping watch at the hospital. Monica's recovery was going well."Please arrange for my grandmother to be transferred to another hospital or a higher-level ward. Aside from you and me, no one else should attend to her," Joey instructed Selena solemnly."Has something serious happened?" Selena asked immediately.Joey pursed her lips. "Do you think Zachary would lie?""Uh, I don't think he'd stoop to lying," Selena said. Even if she wasn't happy with Zachary, she knew he wouldn't do something so low."I'll tell you when I get back," Joey replied."Okay." Selena felt rather anxious about it all.Joey spent the night packing up and left Riviera immediately.Fortunately, the custom-made clothes and decorations were all completed.She stayed in Riviera because she found much heritage in the city worth learning. She was planning to stay until June for Yvette's gown to be

Chapter 225 Joey's Two Faces

After spending some time with Joey, Elise began to understand her a bit.She tended to keep her concerns to herself, giving off an air of aloofness and cool detachment, somewhat similar to Hanson's character.As time passed, Joey stayed at the homestay until May.Recently, she had been isolating herself. She had cut herself off from all news from the rest of the world, seldom communicating with even Zachary.Monica had been discharged and was recovering at home, too.That morning, Joey planned to take a walk along the rural road. As soon as she stepped out of the door, she noticed a car parked in the homestay yard.Beside the car stood a man who tossed the car keys to someone else.When Joey was stunned, the man raised his head to look at her."Ms. Linton, good morning. Are you also here for a vacation?" Zachary asked in a relaxed and pleasant tone, smiling at Joey.Joey's expression visibly turned stoic. "Were you investigating my whereabouts?""Of course not. I've made an i

Chapter 226 For the Sake of the English Breakfast

The two of them walked back, bickering all the way. By the time they got back, the sun was already up in its zenith.However, the countryside had plenty of trees, making the temperature quite pleasant.Joey headed for the kitchen. Meanwhile, Zachary asked Henry, who was waiting for their return, "Are the rooms all set?""Yes." Henry nodded."Then you go back to the city first. Don't disclose my whereabouts to anyone. If anything comes up, contact me on WhatsApp," Zachary whispered to Henry."Okay." Henry obediently nodded again.When Joey was bustling in the homestay's kitchen, Zachary walked in and saw her cutting meat. He asked, "Making breakfast?""Yeah."Joey couldn't help but wonder why he seemed so free. Wasn't he there for business?Rolling up his sleeves, Zachary walked over to Joey. "What do you want for breakfast?""I would like a full English breakfast. What are you doing?" Joey looked at him reaching for the knife and instinctively moved away."I'm making breakfa

Chapter 227 Just for Her

Zachary looked at her with a profound gaze. "Do you distrust me so much?""My grandmother's life is at stake. I dare not play around with her life," Joey replied.If there was even a one-in-a-million chance that Rose or Julia could get involved, she would refuse Zachary's proposal."Alright, I guarantee no one will know about this," he assured.Joey was almost finished with her meal. She glanced at Zachary still standing beside her."Do you need something else? If not, you can leave; I have things to attend to after eating."Zachary looked at her plate. "When you finish your breakfast, I'll do the dishes for you. You can focus on your work."Joey was momentarily at a loss for words."Eat quickly, I've got things to do too," Zachary gently urged.Joey quickly refocused. After finishing her breakfast, she handed the plate and cutlery to Zachary, still offering a polite "thank you".A smile tugged at Zachary's lips but he didn't say a word.For the whole morning, Zachary didn't

Chapter 228 Indebted

Zachary observed her joyful face and smiled without saying much.Since Joey said not to bring up the past, Zachary respected her wishes. He decided to focus on making the most of their time together now.Joey was delighted with the meal.While Zachary was cleaning the table, he asked, "You've always been a fan of these, haven't you?"When they got married, Zachary's family adhered to strict dietary habits. It limited Joey's opportunities to indulge in what he considered heavy and oily foods."Linton Ville is close to the sea, and there are also ponds around that area."I practically grew up exploring those places. How could I possibly not like them? My grandma's a pro at making these."Leaning back in her chair, Joey used a damp cloth to wipe her hands which were still carrying the meal's savory scent."I'm glad you enjoyed it. If you have things to work on, do feel free to head back to your room. I've got some tasks ahead after finishing up here as well," Zachary said, making

Chapter 229 Fireflies

"What are you looking at?" Joey asked, a hint of confusion and awkwardness on her face.She wondered if Zachary had overheard her conversation with her grandma."Is your grandma thinking of leaving the hospital again?" Zachary inquired, having picked up on a bit of the conversation.Joey nodded. She wasn't keen on delving into the details with Zachary and decided to head back."Wanna take a walk around?" Zachary approached her."Nope. I'm still dealing with some work at hand." She wanted to finish up quickly so Monica wouldn't have to stay in the hospital for too long."Hey, we all need a break sometimes. What if you push yourself too hard and end up in the hospital, setting your work back even more?" Zachary casually mentioned and grabbed Joey's wrist.Joey instinctively tried to pull away."Take a look at the surroundings and give me some ideas for the designs," Zachary urged, pulling her outside."You might want to consult an architect for that. I'm a fashion designer." Joe

Chapter 230 Who Says I Don't Like Her

The two of them were in the middle of heading back when Zachary's phone rang.Joey noticed him taking out his phone. As she saw the caller ID, any trace of joy on her face vanished."I need to take this call. Wait for me a moment," Zachary said, walking toward the roadside embankment.Joey sneered. She wasn't about to wait for him, so she walked away without turning back.Zachary picked up Julian's call, his tone cold. "What's the issue now?""Did you install surveillance on my phone?" Julian confronted, his voice carrying a hint of anger.To Zachary's surprise, Julian had discovered it sooner than expected.Amidst his inner astonishment, he nonchalantly inquired, "Do you have any evidence that it was me?"Zachary knew Henry's way of doing things. There was no chance he'd let someone like Julian catch him with evidence."Zachary, I'm out of prison. Only you know about this. I haven't contacted anyone aside from you and my sister."Do you seriously think my sister would go as
