Semua Bab You Left Me for Your Secretary, so Why Are You Begging at My Wedding?: Bab 471 - Bab 480

Liz narrowed her eyes slightly. “Then, Mr. Lincoln, what exactly did you ask me here to discuss today?”After a brief silence, Zac lifted his gaze to meet hers. “If you ever need any help, you can contact me anytime.”Liz’s expression hardened. “If that’s all you wanted to say, then there’s no reason for us to continue this conversation.”She stood up and started toward the door.Before she could leave, Zac’s voice came from behind, more urgent this time. “Wait, Liz. There’s something else I need to tell you.”She turned back, her face serious. “What is it?”“It’s about the accident. Please sit down first.”After hesitating for a moment, Liz returned to her seat. “Go ahead.”“I suspect this incident may be connected to Lincoln Corporation.”Liz’s eyes widened slightly. She hadn’t expected that. The current chairman of Lincoln Corporation was Zac’s own father, and one day, Zac would inherit a share of it.Seeing her thoughts written on her face, Zac gave a bitter smile. “I don

Zac finally lost his patience. “Do you really think the whole world revolves around you? Today you don’t want me meeting with Liz, so I’m supposed to switch business partners just to please you. Tomorrow you’ll find something else to complain about. Should I just hand you the CEO’s chair at Voyager Tech while I’m at it?”Xena glared at him, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “Stop pretending. You just want an excuse to see her. You think I don’t know what’s going on in that head of yours?”Her tone was full of fury and resentment. She didn’t just want the title of Mrs. Lincoln. She wanted Zac’s heart to belong to her completely. The thought that he still had feelings for Liz made her blood boil. She hated Liz so much that she wished she could erase her from the world.Before Zac could respond, Liz finally spoke, her tone calm but icy. “Mr. Lincoln, I’m not interested in whatever argument you’re having with your fiancée. We’ve already discussed what we needed to. Now, if you’ll excuse

Susan clearly hadn’t expected him to agree so easily. She froze for a moment before replying, “Alright then.”The next evening, Zac left work and drove straight to pick her up. When he arrived, he noticed Xena sitting beside her. His expression darkened immediately. “What are you doing here?”“She’s pregnant,” Susan said sharply. “Is that any way to speak to her?”Xena bit her lip, her face full of wounded innocence. “It’s not Zac’s fault, Ms. Green. I’ve upset him lately, so it’s normal that he doesn’t want to see me.”Susan frowned, her tone firm. “You two are getting married. Even if you’ve argued, that attitude isn’t acceptable.” She turned to Zac. “When you used to fight with Liz, I never once saw you speak to her like that. You chose her yourself, so don’t let me see you treating her this way again.”Zac said nothing. She was right. He had chosen Xena himself, and now this was his punishment, his consequence for betraying Liz.At the mention of Liz’s name, Xena’s hand tight

Susan had always been bitter about Zac’s status as an illegitimate son and had spent years hoping the Lincolns would finally acknowledge him.In the past, Zac had no real value to the family, and with Christine firmly against it, David never publicly admitted that Zac was his son. It was an open secret that everyone in the family pretended not to know.But now that Voyager Tech had gone public, Christine wanted to take the company and hand it over to her own son, Eric. Naturally, she was more than willing to play nice.A flicker of disbelief crossed Susan’s eyes before she let out a cold laugh. “You expect me to believe you’re doing this out of kindness?”Christine smiled sweetly. “I only have one son, Eric. Zac is his younger brother. Bringing him back into the family would be good for both of them. They can look out for each other.”Susan didn’t believe a single word of it. “Look out for each other? Or are you looking to get your hands on Zac’s company? You know exactly what you

David gave her a cold, hard look. “I told you before. You should have had him officially acknowledged as part of the family first, and then talked to him about the company. You’re the one who refused. Now everything’s fallen apart, and you’ve got no one to blame but yourself.”Christine gave a sharp, mocking laugh. “And how do I know you didn’t have your own secret agenda? Maybe you just wanted to bring your old flame’s son back into the family.”If she had agreed to have Zac acknowledged first, only for David to change his mind later and refuse to merge Voyager Tech with Lincoln Corporation, then all her effort would have been for nothing.David’s brows furrowed in irritation. “You know perfectly well I haven’t had any contact with her all these years. The only thing that matters right now is Eric’s future. Why are you bringing up pointless nonsense?”Christine shot him a sideways glance. “Don’t think I didn’t notice how many times you looked at her when she walked in.”“I haven’
