Xena lifted her head, eyes full of resentment. “Zac, what’s with this attitude? Marriage was your idea. Now I’m the only one looking at everything. Tell me, are we getting married, or am I marrying myself?”Zac’s lips twisted into a cold half-smile. “Does it matter? You know exactly why I’m marrying you.”His icy indifference pierced straight through Xena’s heart, and her eyes brimmed with tears.What she wanted was to be happy with him. Not this. Not being left alone in an empty villa day after day, waiting for him to come home.“Zac, we used to be so happy together. Don’t you remember? I just… I just want things to go back to the way they were.”Back then, she had seen love in his eyes. But ever since he and Liz broke up, he had changed.Had all that love she thought she saw just been an act?“Xena, I made myself clear before. The only thing I can give you is marriage.”“But you used to love me. You brought me gifts from your business trips. You rubbed my stomach when I had c

How was this any different from a confession?The moment Zac heard Liz’s name, his whole body went rigid. He turned sharply toward Xena, fury blazing in his eyes. “Liz’s accident… was that you?!”Xena shook her head in a panic. “No! It had nothing to do with me! I don’t know anything!”His gaze pinned her in place, so cold it felt like it could cut through her.“Nothing to do with you? Then why are the police here? Why would they show up with an arrest warrant?”Xena couldn’t even look at him. She only kept shaking her head.Ten minutes later, she was escorted into a police car.Zac stood there, watching as it pulled away, his face like stone.Beside him, Mrs. Cullen looked anxious. “Mr. Lincoln, Ms. Spencer is still pregnant. You should think of a way to get her released first.”Mrs. Cullen had always thought Xena was spoiled and difficult, but now she was carrying Zac’s child. Nothing could be allowed to happen to the baby.Zac’s expression didn’t change. “She hired someone

Zac’s face was filled with impatience and disgust. “Where else would we be going? You put Liz in the hospital. Don’t you think you owe her an apology?”Xena’s face drained of color. An apology to Liz? He might as well have killed her.“Zac, my stomach hurts. Can you take me home to rest? I’ll go see Ms. Smith another day to apologize.”Zac let out a cold laugh. “Now your stomach hurts? Where was that pain when you hired someone to kidnap Liz? Or when you sent someone to crash into her car? Everything that’s happening now, you brought on yourself. If you weren’t pregnant, do you really think you’d be out here free, on your way to apologize in person?”His words dripped with mockery. He clearly didn’t believe a word she said.“Zac, I know I was wrong, but I really am in pain.”“If you’re in pain, then the hospital is the perfect place for you. Let the doctor check. But if nothing shows up, I won’t let you off. So you’d better think carefully.”His piercing stare terrified her. She

“Zac, stop with the fake apologies. I won’t accept them, and I don’t ever want to see you again.”Zac’s face went pale. His lips parted, but not a single word came out.After a long silence, he lowered his eyes, turned, and walked out without another word.If he were Liz, he wouldn’t want to see himself either.Maybe he should never have brought Xena here to apologize.Not long after Zac left, Hunter came in.“Liz, the paperwork to press charges against Xena is ready. Take a look.”Liz accepted the file and said evenly, “She’s pregnant. Even if she’s convicted, her sentence will either be delayed until after she gives birth or commuted to probation.”And knowing Zac, no matter how much he despised Xena, he would never allow the mother of his child to serve time in prison. He would send in lawyers to negotiate a settlement instead.Hunter’s face darkened, his voice sharp as ice. “She timed this on purpose. She made sure she was pregnant before coming after you.”Liz’s expressi

Mandy’s face was full of pride. “Really. I’ll bring the contract back to the company right away. But… Dad, you know Ms. Henderson and I have a good relationship. She said she wants me to handle the follow-up work with her company.”“Don’t worry. When you get back, I’ll take you straight to the Smith estate. Once your grandmother hears you signed with Henderson Corporation, she’ll definitely agree to let you into the company!”*When William knocked and walked into the hospital room, Liz was just about to pick her book back up.The moment she saw him, her eyes lit up. She quickly closed the book and set it aside.“You’re here already?”“You’re being discharged today. I came to see if there’s anything I can help with.”Liz shook her head. “No need. Mrs. Wood already packed everything. She and the driver are coming later to take me back to the estate.”“How long are you planning to stay there?”“I don’t know. It depends on when my grandmother decides to let me leave. I’m guessing
