Semua Bab Mr. Webb, Make Your Move!: Bab 491 - Bab 500

Charvi gasped in surprise!"Zara? Is it really you, Zara?" She was so shocked that she forgot all about calling her 'Mrs. Webb' and using polite titles."Why do you have Ms. Nox's phone? Where are you right now? Mr. Webb has been searching high and low for you for days!"In a quiet voice, Zara asked, "Are you with Yosef at the moment?""No, Mr. Webb didn't show up at the office today, and he didn't tell me anything. Just let me know where you are and I'll get Mr. Webb to come get you right away!" Charvi replied.Zara blurted out, "Charvi, we've worked together for three years. Even though we're not close outside of work, I still think of us as friends. So why, when Leah framed me, did you stir up people against me?"Leah's lips twisted into a sly grin. She thought Zara's question was clever.There was a long pause on the other end before Charvi finally said, "Zara, what are you saying? I never—"Zara did not wait to hear more and hung up the phone, gripping it so tightly her kn

Zara tried not to cry. She looked up at the sky, searching for comfort. Was it not just sunny a minute ago? Where did the sun go? How did she suddenly learn the bitter truth? Yosef... Yosef never really loved her, right?She had been nothing but a tool to him for the past three years, and nothing had changed. Why did she let herself fall for him again after it had already ended badly once?Was it because of the crush he had on her back in high school or that old love letter she found?However, if the feelings she saw with her own eyes were fake, what about the ones she never saw? The ones she only heard about from others and those few unclear words of affection? How much of that was even real?Zara tried to pull off the ring, and her throat tightened with effort. The sharp diamond 'V' dug into her skin, drawing blood. However, the ring would not budge.She gritted her teeth, ready to yank it off no matter what. However, Shawn grabbed her wrist and said in a serious tone, "Stop, Za

Did Zara get to decide?Was that really supposed to be a choice?Yosef was using her mom to force her hand. What choice did she have but to give in?Zara closed her eyes, feeling dizzy. She took a shaky step toward Yosef.Shawn's grip on her arm slid down to hold her hand, their cold palms touching. Zara looked at him. They did not speak, but their eyes said so much.Yosef stared at them with icy eyes, and his gaze landed on their hands. Zara squeezed her fingers tightly and looked at Yosef again. "If I go with you, will you let my mom go?"Yosef looked away, his lips a straight line. "If you're not coming with me, who will you go with?"Zara yanked her hand from Shawn's and let out a breath. Her face grew pale as she walked toward the garden.Sadie took a step forward, worried. "Mr. Stewart..."Shawn stayed quiet, his eyes following Zara as she left, his face expressionless.Yosef did not look pleased even though he had won. His eyes were ice-cold. "We'll settle this later,"

Instead of moving back, Yosef pulled her in closer. "What's wrong with using some tricks to go after the person I like? Didn't you say you understood that adults played games to get what they wanted? Why was it okay for Stanley before but not for me now?"Zara could not believe he was using that as an excuse!"You can't just mix things up! Are these even the same?""Why aren't they?" Yosef's expression was stern. "Plus, didn't you say that everything before we got engaged was forgiven, that it's all in the past?"For the first time ever, Zara was so mad she could not speak. He was brushing it off by saying he was going after the person he liked and that it should all be forgiven! How could he be so bold?!Pretending to be good to win her over, pressuring people, and twisting the truth was all so that he could win her over. It was because he 'liked' her, so he played some 'little tricks'. Even if he went too far, it was because he liked her. She was the one who said that everythi

Five hours later, the plane touched down in Starville. Charvi was there with a whole line of cars to meet them at the airport.Zara headed straight for one of the cars, making sure to sit in the front seat. She made it clear she did not want to be anywhere near Yosef.As soon as she tried to climb into the car, Yosef yanked her into the back seat. She could not break free. Once she was inside, she turned her head away in silence.Charvi asked with caution, "Mr. Webb, are we heading back to East Coast?""Yes," Yosef answered simply.However, Zara protested, "I need to go to the hospital to see my mom."Yosef responded calmly, "She's in the ICU, and you can't go in. Even if you did, what would you do? I won't let you stay with her overnight.""That's for me to decide, not you," Zara snapped back.Yosef challenged, saying, "Try me. We're going back to East Coast."Zara's voice grew louder. "I said, to the hospital!"The driver, following Yosef's orders, set the GPS for East Coas
