Chapter 249

"What are you doing, Lolo? Zayn, save me!" Skyler's face fell when she recognized the smell of sulphuric

acid in the air.

After all her schemings, she still failed to get Kenan killed. Therefore, she forged Kenan's death to morally crush Willow and drive her crazy.

She knew that desecrating the "ashes" would provoke Willow to do something crazy, which would evoke Zayn's contempt. Never had she anticipated Willow throwing acid at her.

Skyler covered her face tightly, nearly wetting her pants from the fear. Thankfully, Zayn rushed to her rescue at the critical moment and wrapped her in a tight hug.

The acid that Willow flung at Skyler made contact with Zayn's back.

"Zayn, how are you?" Skyler collected herself and hurriedly checked on Zayn.

As the weather was chilly, Zayn wore a few layers. However, he suffered acid burns as Willow had used highly concentrated acid. The burn looked horrifying.

"Zayn..." Tears rolled down Skyler's cheeks. She felt sorry for the acid burns that Zayn suffered. In the aftershock, she was gripped by lingering fear.

If Zayn was badly injured even when he wore layers of clothes, she could not imagine what would happen if she were the victim instead. She might never be able to show up in public! "Zayn, does it hurt?" Sobbing, she held his arm and reached out to touch his back. Yet, she worried that her touch might hurt him more.

"Skyler, I'm fine." Zayn quietly pulled away from her. "How about you? Are you hurt?"

"Zayn, you're a fool!" She cried louder upon hearing his concerned question. "Look at you! You're badly hurt, but you still care about me. That really pains me. I feel so bad for you!" "Skyler, I'm okay as long as you're safe."

Meanwhile, Willow stared at the lovey-dovey scene between the two. She did not anticipate Zayn shielding Skyler from the attack.

In fact, she spotted Zayn before she threw the acid. Thinking she could carry out the attack swiftly, she underestimated his concern for Skyler.

The acid attack was a failure.

Willow turned her face away stiffly as she repeatedly reminded herself that she was no longer in love with Zayn. Nonetheless, she felt a heartache when she saw the bloodied burns on his back.

Upset that she did not manage to disfigure Skyler, she silently grabbed uit knife to stab Skyler. Before tostab she had the chance to do so, she

the fruit knife

heard Zayn's icy voice ringing out.

"Willow Sanford, how could you do this to Skyler? If I hadn'Drushed over If I intime, she would have been The
