She had merely wanted to tidy up her clothes in the restroom. Little did she expect to encounter such a

scene.

How unlucky.

Lenora, with an indescribable turmoil in her heart, turned and left without a word.

Watching Lenora's retreating figure, Zachary immediately followed after her.

"Zachary!"

Lola clutched his arm, wanting to say something else, but Zachary brushed her off with a swift movement of his hand. -"Ms. Wilkin, you're back."

In the lounge area of the grand hall, Connor looked at Lenora with a smile.

"I'm sorry. Something's come up. I have to leave now," Lenora said.

"Is someone coming to pick you up?"

"No."

Connor immediately stood up. "How about I take you home?"

Lenora wanted to refuse, but as the words reached her lips, she changed her mind. "Okay."

A smile of delight was evident on Connor's face. "I'll speak with the staff and get them to get us a car."

"Okay."

When Zachary entered the grand hall, he saw Lenora and Connor leaving side by side.

He stood at a distance with his fists clenched, his expression as cold as ice.

How dare Connor, of all people, lay his hands on my stuff? The car came to a halt at the entrance of the residential area. Lenora, bundled up in a down jacket, stepped out of the car.

Connor stepped out as well. "Do you want me to walk you up?"

Lenora gently shook her head. "Maybe next time. You should really get the staff to take you home now. We wouldn't want to hold them up."

Connor gave an awkward chuckle and settled back into the car. "I'll get going then."

Guess I'll need to get myself a car soon.

"Goodbye."

With a casual wave of her hand, Lenora turned around and entered the residential area.

The night in January was bitterly cold. Her nose was tinged red from the chill. She hugged herself and quickly made her way into the apartment building. Suddenly, she paused in her steps.

Zachary was leaning languidly against the wall by the elevator, a cigarette held loosely in his hand. His lips parted slightly as he exhaled a hazy ring of smoke. Upon hearing the sound of footsteps, he looked up, and his gaze settled on Lenora. His eyes were darker than the night itself.

"What are you doing here?" Lenora asked in surprise.

"What do you think?"

Lenora raised an eyebrow. "I don't know. You asked me to accompany you to the cocktail party, and I did just that. I don't know what I've done to upset you so much that you've followed me all the way here." Zachary chuckled in exasperation. "So you do know you were supposed to accompany me at the cocktail party?"

Lenora shrugged. "Is there a problem?"

Zachary suppressed the flame rising in his heart and said, "You were at the party, laughing and chatting with other men, not even bothering to say goodbye before you left with another man. And that's not a problem?"

Upon hearing Zachary's accusations, Lenora couldn't help but laugh. Her laughter was unrestrained as if she found the whole situation utterly ridiculous. "So, this is what you're upset about?"

Zachary's anger intensified within him. "You got a problem with that?"

Lenora dropped her smile, her gaze cool as she looked at him. "Do you still recall what happened at the charity dinner last time?"

Zachary's face stiffened slightly.

A chill washed over him, extinguishing his inner flame and leaving behind an icy dampness.

Seeing that he was silent, Lenora took a step forward. "At the dinner, you were all smiles with Susanna, chatting happily. You guys were a match made in heaven. You even left with her without saying a word. What right do you have to accuse me?" Zachary's face was as pale as a ghost. He was so lost in thought that he didn't even notice the cigarette burning down to his index finger.

"What's the matter? Cat got your tongue? Zachary, deeds of the past always come due!" Lenora sneered, pressing the up button without hesitation.

The elevator doors slid open.

Just as Lenora was about to walk in, Zachary suddenly embraced her from behind. His arms were tightly wrapped around her waist. He leaned in close to her ear and whispered apologetically, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Nora."

"Let go!" Lenora struggled with his grip, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break free.

"Nora, I love you. I truly do. You have no idea how jealous and heartbroken I feel when I see you left with other men..."

Lenora let out a cold laugh. "Zachary, do you replace this amusing? Do you even know what love is? Love is about giving, not possessing! I already have someone I like. I'm about to start a new life. Can't you just let me go? Are you going to haunt me for the rest of my life if I don't agree to remarry you?"

Zachary's body jolted as though a knife had been viciously plunged into his heart.

He lowered his gaze, looking at Lenora with a mournful expression. "Is it Connor?"

How could she possibly have feelings for Connor?

He's not even worthy of her!

"Yes!"

A bitter smile tugged at the corner of Zachary's mouth. "Nora, stop lying to me. How could you possibly be in love with Connor?"

Lenora sneered, "Mr. Fuller, you sure are confident, huh? I told you, I like Connor! He's young, handsome, vibrant, and ambitious. Why can't I like him?"

A sliver of unease crept into Zachary's heart, stirring up an unavoidable sense of panic. "Aren't you afraid he might end up like Maxton..."

"No, he wouldn't. He was raised abroad and had no idea about my status when we first met."

"When I asked you before, you said you were in love with someone. Have you changed your mind so quickly?" Zachary asked, a hint of impatience in his voice.

"I told you too that he doesn't like me. Why should I keep pining for him?"

"But Connor is simply not good enough for you!"

"Who cares what you think? I'll support him if he's penniless. After all, you were generous when we divorced. You left me with quite a substantial amount. It'd be a waste not to use it." Zachary fell silent.

After a few seconds, he clung to his last shred of hope and muttered, "Lenora, you're just trying to upset me, aren't you?"

"Why would I bother to upset you?" Lenora raised an eyebrow. "To me, you're nothing more than an ex-husband I've long parted ways with. If it weren't for Hattie, do you think I'd even see you? Don't flauer yourself. Do you know why I rejected Hattie in the car today? Because I don't want to be entangled with you any longer! If you truly care for Hattie, you'd better keep your distance from me, or don't blame me for being ruthless and staying away from her!"

Zachary felt as if he'd been punched in the chest. The pain was so intense that he struggled to catch his breath.

"Is there really... no chance left at all?"

"No," Lenora responded, her tone firm and decisive.

Zachary closed his eyes briefly, silently releasing his hold. He took two steps back and murmured, "I understand."

She has found someone she likes. She has already taken the first step forward, entering a new phase of her life.

Only I remain in the same place, unable to let go, believing there's still a glimmer of hope.

In reality, there isn't.

He stood still, taking a deep breath, enduring an intense heartache, swallowing the sourness that welled up in his throat, and holding back the tears brimming in his eyes. "I won't bother you anymore. You're right. I didn't understand love. No one ever taught me what it meant from my childhood. It wasn't until I lost you that I finally understood. But by then, it was already too late. Nora, if your happiness lies in a future without me, then I'm willing to step aside. Nora, you must always stay happy."
