The other matter was about the beast who harmed Jane.
"Yes, sir."
Zachary hung up the phoCne and wanted to smoke a cigarette, only to realize he was wrapped in a bath towel.
He pushed open the balcony door, stepped inside, and went to the kitchen, grabbing a bottle of cold water and drinking half of it.
If the surveillance couldn't be restored, he would have to resort to methods, as Frank suggested.
Michael was relatively easy to handle, with his grandmother around, it wouldn't be hard to get information about that night.
But Nina's situation was more troublesome.
Their testimonies had to be consistent.
When Jane woke up, it was already dark outside.
She looked beside her and found it empty.
After wandering around the living room, she found no one there.
On the balcony, however, their discarded clothes were hanging.
She picked up her phone to call Zachary.
Just as she dialed, she noticed a note on the coffee table.
"Went back home, the food is warming in the pot. If you don't want to eat that, just message me what you want, and I'll have someone bring it to you.
At that moment, the call connected.
"Are you awake?"
Jane nodded then asked, "Did something happen?"
It
"Nothing much." Zachary's voice was relaxed. "He just said that he had a headache and insisted I come back."
No subject was mentioned, but Jane guessed it was his grandfather.
"Alright, you handle your things. I'll hang up.
"Yeah, I'll come replace you after I'm done."

Jane smiled. "Take a break, Zachary. Aren't you afraid of exhausting yourself?"
Zachary chuckled. "I'd be willing to die for it."
Jane shivered a bit. "You pervert, I'm hanging up."
Zachary reminded her, "Remember to eat.
"Got it. How come I never noticed you were so chatty before? Aren't you usually the type who chooses words carefully?" "Definitely not when it comes to you."
Jane's smile deepened. "I'm not talking to you anymore."
Without waiting for Zachary to respond, she hung up.
Zachary shook his head helplessly.
"Look at you, acting so worthless." Suddenly, Rebecca appeared. "You're only having a relationship with someone.
Zachary put away his phone, his smile fading. "It's my first relationship. Don't say that, I'm quite happy."
Rebecca gritted her teeth. "You shouldn't have been so busy with work before. You should have met more girls early on, then you wouldn't treat her like a treasure."
Zachary's smile vanished completely. "She hasn't offended you in any way, so don't say
that about her.
"Did I say something wrong?" Rebecca was a bit angry. "You can laugh on the phone with her, but you're cold with your own mother. She's taken my son away, how is that not provoking me?"
Zachary raised a hand to rub his temples. "Mom, if you want our family to be intact, I don't want to hear that again."
Rebecca had no way to deal with him, he was her only son. She just asked, "What do you plan to do about Nina?"
"I won't take responsibility," Zachary answered without thinking. "I have nothing to do with her. I'm not so out of it that I wouldn't know who I slept with. If you believe what she says, why don't you believe your own son? If you're willing to take responsibility, you do that. I have a girlfriend now and don't want her to be unhappy."
Rebecca was practically furious. "I think you want me to be hospitalized too.
Zachary replied coolly, "I've said all I need to say. If you refuse to listen, and I end up cutting ties with you, don't morally blackmail me then."

"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Eric strode over, raising his hand to strike.
Zachary stood still, not moving.
His gaze was calm, a hint of coldness directed at Eric.
It was Rebecca who reached out to stop Eric.
"Let's talk things out calmly!"
Eric retorted, "What kind of calm is he showing?"
Zachary dusted off the nonexistent dust on his clothes.
"Are you going to hit me? If not, I'm leaving."
Eric declared, "You're not going anywhere today!"
