Chapter 433 You Are Disgusting
The room fell into another bout of silence. No one paid him any attention.
Unfazed by the awkwardness, Zachary continued, “Cecilia, just tellwhat you'd like to buy, and I'll go get it
for you right now.”
A man who is inexplicably generous is usually hiding ulterior motives.
Cecilia felt certain that Zachary was up to no good. “No need. | have my own money. | can buy things for
myself.”
Zachary choked on his words, feeling a bit embarrassed.
“Nathaniel, what about you? Do you need anything?”
Nathaniel did not respond. Instead, he threw the question back to him. “Do you need something?”
Zachary had made an enthusiastic effort only to be met with cold indifference. However, he did. not let it bother
him. “Do | need a reason to cand hang out with you guys?” he asked.
Yesterday, Elena had asked Cecilia to go over today and help her out with the engagement venue's set-up. So,
she left after speaking to the two men.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter Cecilia had left their sight, Nathaniel beceven colder to Zachary. “If there's nothing else. on your mind,
you should leave.”
“Nathaniel, you're really breaking my heart! Couldn't you at least poura drink?”
Nathaniel could not be bothered to entertain Zachary. He ignored him and went upstairs, leaving Zachary alone
in the living room.
However, Zachary had just arrived and had no intentions of leaving so soon. He made himself comfortable on
the sofa and casually turned on the television.
The news was being aired on the television. He immediately spotted Stella on the screen. Her face was streaked
with tears.
His usually relaxed demeanor instantly tensed. “Didn't Nathaniel had her committed to a mental hospital? How
and when did she manage to escape?”
He could no longer remain seated. Rising from his chair, he headed for the door. As he walked, he pulled out his
phone and dialed a number. “You have half a day. Bring Stella to me.”
Less than two hours later, Stella found herself back at the Tudela Psychiatric Hospital again. Once her black
blindfold was removed, clarity returned to her vision.
Her eyes narrowed when she recognized her familiar surroundings.
“I'm not crazy! Letgo!” she shricked.
At that moment, the door was yanked open. The blinding light from outside streamed in. Against the light, stood
Zachary's silhouette. His leather shoes echoed across the floor as he walked up to her.
In truth, Zachary harbored an even deeper resentment towards Stella as compared to Cecilia.
| believed you! | did everything for you! Yet, you deceivedand tookfor a fool!
Stella looked up at him. It took her eyes a while to adjust to the light. Finally, she saw his face. clearly. “Zach...
Zach...”
She clung desperately to Zachary’s leg. “Zach, you must save me,” she pleaded. “You promised you'd always
protect me.”
Zachary stared at her panicked face and felt no sympathy. His expression remained cold and indifferent. “Stella,”
he said. “Are you still trying to usefor your own benefit even now? The person | vowed to protect was never
supposed to be you, it is Cecilia!”
Stella listened to his icy voice. Her voice choked with tears as she insisted, “But we've been together for so
many years! We're still friends, aren't we?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Do you really think you're worthy of being my friend?”
Zachary chuckled mirthlessly. If it had not been for their many years of history, Stella would be long dead.
When it really cdown to it, he was just too soft-hearted.
At that moment, Stella knew that Zachary was the one who had brought her there.
After all, Nathaniel was now blind and no longer able to take care of such affairs.
“So, why did you bringhere? | have already admitted to my wrongdoings.”
“What's the use of realizing your mistakes now? You're insane! You should be in a mental hospital, not out there
bothering other people's lives.”
Zachary turned to leave.
However, Stella had no desire to stay in that godforsaken place. She gripped his arm tightly and pulled herself
up. She moved to kiss him.
“Zach, | know you've always had feelings for me. Can we be together?”
Before her lips could even cclose to him, Zachary shoved her roughly away,
“You are disgusting.”

He stalked to the door and commanded his men, “Make sure she understands her position.”
