บททั้งหมดของ The Jerk Billionaire and his Spoiled Child (English): บทที่ 61 - บทที่ 70

Zach’s lips parted in shock at what he had just heard. Had he heard her correctly? Cyan wanted him dead? Judging by her expression, she wasn't faking it. He felt a sudden, sharp pang in his chest.He swallowed hard to clear the lump in his throat. "What are we going to do now? I'm still alive. I guess you’ll just have to deal with me."Cyan rolled her eyes at him. She tried to wrench her arm from his grip, but he wouldn't let go. "What is it with you, Zach?! Why are you so persistent! Is there something wrong with your head? Do you not understand plain English!" she barked at him.Instead of getting angry, he grinned at her like a madman. "I heard you loud and clear, but I have no intention of listening to you."Cyan let out a long, heavy sigh. She truly didn't know what else to do to shake Zach out of her life. How she wished she could just fast-forward time to the day of her flight. That way, she wouldn't have to see him for a while."Is there a problem here, Ma’am, Sir?" asked a po

Cyan was left stunned by what she had heard. The words coming from Zach’s mouth sounded so sincere they almost moved her. If she didn't know the man so well, she might have actually believed he was serious. But she knew him far too well for that.They had been together for a long time, yet he had never once spared her a glance—now, all of a sudden, he wanted a "fresh start"? She wasn't that naive. She was certain he had a hidden agenda.Her eyes narrowed. "Does Laureen know about these little games you're playing?""Laureen and I are already over," he answered directly.She was momentarily speechless, her gaze searching his face for any sign of a lie. They were over? Just like that? She let out a sarcastic laugh, vividly remembering how Zach had always shielded Laureen from her, even when Laureen was the one who had started the trouble."I know it’s hard for you to believe me, given our history, but I’m truly serious this time, Cyanelle. We are already married. Let’s give it a shot. I

"Why is she here?" Those were the first words out of Laureen’s mouth, but Zach ignored her question entirely. Instead, he brushed past her and walked straight into the unit.Her attention shifted instantly from Cyan to Zach as he began pacing through the living room, searching. She rushed to catch up and blocked his path."What do you think you're doing, Zach?! This is trespassing!" she shrieked.Zach froze for a second before letting out a dry, sarcastic laugh. "If this is trespassing, then having my daughter under your roof is kidnapping," he retorted with a smirk.Laureen’s eyes widened in fake shock. "Have you lost your mind?! Zendaya isn't here!"Zach’s eyes shifted to a specific spot on the floor. Following his gaze, Laureen realized his attention was locked onto the shoes Zendaya had been wearing earlier. She swallowed hard, a wave of panic crashing over her."Z—Zendaya just stopped by for a visit—""Without my permission?" Zach cut her off."She’s my goddaughter, for God’s sak

Laureen swallowed hard several times. All she had wanted was to make Cyan feel threatened—to hint that she knew something Cyan didn't. But she hadn't expected Cyan to already suspect that Zach had an ulterior motive for approaching her. She hadn't expected her to be this smart. Way smarter than her twin, Chloe."Why aren't you speaking? Are you afraid that if you tell me Zach’s real reason for chasing me, he’ll never forgive you? Let me tell you something, Laureen: someone who truly loves you knows how to forgive. But I guess Zach isn't that into you, considering how he’s treating you today," Cyan said, her face wearing a look of mock sympathy that only made Laureen’s blood boil further.This bîtch was truly enjoying mocking her tonight!"We just had a lover's quarrel. That’s how relationships go. Well, I suppose you wouldn't know anything about that since your man never truly loved you!"Cyan paused for a moment before speaking. "So it really was you who spread those rumors to ruin m

Zach hurried down from Zendaya’s room the moment he heard his grandfather had arrived. As expected, the old man was in the living room, waiting for him. Zach studied Don Sebastian for a moment. He remembered their last conversation hadn't ended well, and he couldn't help but wonder what the patriarch's true motive was. He was certain his grandfather hadn't come to the mansion just for a social call."You’ve paid us a surprise visit, Grandpa," Zach said formally.Don Sebastian scanned the room before taking a sip of the tea prepared by the staff. "I can see that Cyan isn't back yet. Don't tell me you haven't done anything to convince her? Are you really willing to give up your position and your inheritance now?"Zach took a deep breath before sitting on the sofa across from the old man. "I'm still pursuing her. I’ll have her back here one of these days.""Really? It’s been days of 'pursuing' and she’s still not back? Is that how you plan to handle our business in the future?" the old m
