No Remarriage: You Don't Deserve Me (Lenora and Zachary)
Stay Away 290

Chapter 290 Does Not Know Chalk From Cheese

"Does Hattie know about it? What's with that attitude? Lenora asked.

"I had asked her, and she was torn between the two, needing someone to help her make a decision."

Lenora hesitated for a moment. "But..."

"No need for any buts. We've only spent so much time with her, and she could already place us on the same level as Aunt Tamara. Do you understand what I mean?" "Yes."

After hanging up the phone, Lenora immediately made a U-turn at the intersection ahead, heading to the relevant department to meet up with Zachary.

She parked her car in front of the relevant government department. Not long after, a familiar license plate number pulled in.

Lenora stepped out of the car, making her way to the open space in front of service department.

Zachary made his way over with Harrietta.

Watching the young girl get off the car, Lenora waved her hand. "Hattie."

Harrietta hurried over, reaching out to hold Lenora's hand. "Aunt Lenora." Thud!

Zachary closed the car door, slipping the car keys into his pocket, and casually glanced at Lenora

She appeared to be largely unharmed, presumably, it was just her arm that was injured?

Lenora cast him a glance, then took Harrietta by the hand and turned around. "Let's go," she said. Zachary's hand tightened as he watched Lenora's retreating figure, silently following her without uttering a word.

Staff members guided them upstairs to the reception room.

Harrietta curiously craned her neck, looking around.

"Hattie, what have you been up to these past couple of days?" asked Lenora.

"Uncle Zachary took me to visit two kindergartens."

"So, which one are you going to choose?"

Harrietta lived abroad in an area densely populated by Clusians. The majority of students in the kindergarten were also Clusians, so there was no fear of not being able to adapt. Harrietta pouted. "Actually, I didn't even want to make a choice... but I know that's not possible.

Lenora gently pinched her cheek.

As the two were engaged in conversation, Zachary handed over Harrietta's identification details, along with the embassy's nationality change request documents, to the staff member. The staff member asked them to wait for a moment and then left with the documents in ha Only three people were left in the reception room.

Harrietta and Lenora were seated together. With animated gestures, Harrietta was sharing everything she had observed at the two kindergartens. Lenora listened intently.

Zachary's gaze fell upon Lenora, studying her intently

Ever since they met, she had hardly looked him in the eye.

Lenora said to Harrietta, "Once you start school, if you miss me, just call. I'll come and pick you up after school, all right?"

Harrietta wrapped her arms around Lenora's arm, glanced at Zachary, and asked, "Would it be a problem if I just stayed with Aunt Lenora?" Hiss...

Harrietta accidentally pressed on Lenora's injured arm. Lenora's eyebrows furrowed as she sharply inhaled due to the sudden pain.

Harrietta quickly let go, her youthful face filled with worry. "Aunt Lenora, what's wrong?" she asked.

"It's nothing, I accidentally scraped my arm."

"Heh. Zachary chuckled softly.

The rigging wire had broken. If the second one had snapped early, she would have fallen straight down from above, and it would have turned into a mere "accidental scrape" by the time it reached her lips. Lenora detected a hint of mockery in his laughter, raising an eyebrow at him, she asked, "What's so funny?"

"What am I laughing at? You think that if you tolerate Susanna, she will help you?"

He laughed, replaceing her naive.

She was well aware that all she needed to do was ask him, and he would certainly help her.

Yet, she simply wouldn't.

She insisted on becoming Susanna's an enduring Susanna's unreasonable demands. Wasn't this th epitome of foolishness?

Yet, against all odds, he was fond of her, this fool.

"Not necessarily.

"So, you will."

"I have to at least give it a try, otherwise I'll be out of options."

Moreover, being close to Susanna, Lenora would do her best to replace any leverage to use against her

Zachary was at a loss for words,

He clenched his large land into a fist, pounding it against his knee.

She was truly stubborn as a mule!

Even though there were other methods available, she simply didn't want to use them!

Lenora understood Zachary's intentions. Whether she was accused of being ungrateful or overly dramatic didn't matter. At that moment, she couldn't comfortably accept Zachary's help without feeling burdened After all, Zachary had desires that she simply couldn't fulfill.

She already owed Zachary two meals, and accepting his help would only increase her debt.

The saying goes, accepting someone's kindness makes one feel obligated to them.

Even if she was to start over again with Zachary, she hoped that they could both stand on equal grounds. She didn't want to feel indebted to Zachary right from the start.

Moreover, she had absolutely no intention of remarrying Zachary

A staff member entered the room, placing two forms in front of Lenora and Zachary. They explained. "To register the child, the parents' personal information needs to be filled in." Okay.

Lenora picked up the pen to fill out the form.

Harrietta was lying on one side, observing, Suddenly, she asked, "Aunt Lenora, can I start calling you mom now?

Lenora glanced up at her, a gentle smile on her face. "Call me whatever you like. It's just a name."

Harrietta blinked her large eyes, a hint of blush spread across her small face as she shyly buried herself into Lenora's embrace.

She really adored Lenora

And the too, would soon have a mother.

The staff member took the completed form away and before long, returned. Handing Zachary his household registration book, they said, "Mr. Fuller, Ms. Fuller's registration is all set."

When they got married, Zachary's household registration was transferred out. As the head of the household, Harrietta was added to the next page, listing their relationship as father and daughter. "Thank you.

Zachary glanced at the document, slipped the househol registration into a file bag, and stood up to look at the two. "Let's go," he said.

The trio left the service hall together.

Zachary strode toward the car, simultaneously pulling out his keys to unlock it.

Lenora led Harrietta by the hand, pulling open the backseat car door. She helped Harrietta into Zachary's car. "Hattic, goodbye, see you when you're free."

"Aunt Lenora, goodbye!"

Zachary pulled open the driver's side door, but he didn't get in the car.

Seeing Lenora about to leave, he finally decided to swallow his pride. He spoke up. "D-Do you have time for us to share a meal together..."

Before he could finish, he saw Lenora helping Harrietta close the car door. She glanced at him, waved and said, "Bye."

Zachary kept quiet at that.

The slid into the driver's seat with a blank expression, forcefully shutting the car door behind him.

With a sudden loud bang, Lenora was given quite a fright.

She moved to the side, allowing Zachary to smoothly drive the car out and quickly speed away.

He seemed even more upset now,

Not long after they drove off, Zachary received a call from Elijah.

He put on his Bluetooth carpiece and connected the call. "Hello, what have you found out?"

Zachary had guessed that Lenora needed Susanna's help with her father's case, yet he was unsure about the specifics,

On the other end of the phone, Elijah had used his connections to get a clear understanding of the situation.

He had a chat with Zachary, and at the end, he sighed. "Richie is Connor's father, I guess Ms. Wilkin was dating him to avenge her father. I really thought Ms. Wilkin was genuinely interested in him....."

After hearing everything. Zachary's forehead throbbed, his grip on the steering wheel tightened.

Lenora's words echoed again and again in his mind: I already

have someone / care about. I'm about to start a new life, can't you just let me go? Is it that if I don't agree to remarry, you'll haunt me forever? I truly do like Connor, I'm not lying to you! He's young handsome, vibrant, and ambitious. Why can't I like him? I'd support him ever waste not to use it.

Lenora was truly remarkable!

What she said sounded so genuine, she completely had him fooled!

He knew, she wouldn't have feelings for Connor.

In pursuit of revenge, she could even endure being with someone she didn't like!

It was only after she received valuable information that she broke up with Connor

What if things hadn't gone so smoothly!

Would she continue dating Commor, doing things that lovers do, until she obtained the useful information she needed!

The mere thought drove Zachary to complete irrationality, his fury beyond control.
