Chapter 57 Do Not Stay Outside

Soft, warm lips pressed against hers, causing her heart to flutter slightly.

Zachary was passionately kissing her lips, leaving them thoroughly reddened.

The tip of his tongue nudged against her pearly teeth, ying for the sweet taste in her mouth.

Lenora placed her hands on his shoulders, her fingers gently brushing over the neat stubble on the back of his neck, responding to him with deep emotion.

Their breaths intertwined with each other.

The panting within the enclosed carriage grew increasingly heavy.

slid down along her curves.

Zachary's breath was scorching hot. His large hand uncontrollably

Lenora suddenly snapped awake, raising her hand to stop him. She mumbled, "No, we're outside now."

Zachary had no choice but to halt his actions. He deeply inhaled the lukewarm sensation from the lips, then slowly pulled away.

A transparent silver thread was drawn apart, and as Zachary retreated, it snapped at its thinnest point, landing on the collars of the two individuals. This added a hint of ambiguity to the confined space of the carriage. Zachary took a deep breath and immediately started the car, his fair and slender fingers tightly gripping the steering wheel.

The car was halfway through the journey when Lenora looked out the window at the passing streetscape. Only then did she realize that this was not the way to the hospital.

"Aren't you going back to the hospital?"

Zachary turned his head to look at Lenora, giving her a faint smile. "Let's go home tonight, and we can head to the hospital tomorrow morning," he suggested. "That's fine."

The car drove into the Galaxy Bay mansion and came to a stop within the courtyard.

Zachary unbuckled his seatbelt, loosened his collar, and leaned eagerly toward Lenora. He captured her lips, licking, nibbling, their tongues entwining, their saliva mingling, their breaths intertwining in a lingering dance.

He casually unbuckled Lenora's seatbelt, lifting her onto his lap. One hand cradled the back of her head while the other lifted the hem of her skirt, venturing underneath.

"Um... Hmm...

With his eyes closed, Lenora clutched tightly at the collar of his clothes. Her cheeks were burning hot, her breath heavy, as if she was struggling to catch her breath.

Zachary's fervent kiss trailed down from the cool edge of her ear, brushing past her neck and her collarbone and tugging at the collar of her clothes. The heat made her tremble all over.

In the midst of his emotional turmoil, there was a sudden knock on the car window. "Mr. Fuller, why aren't you going in?" [1]

It was Miranda's voice.

Lenora and Zachary instantly snapped to alertness, their eyes meeting,

Zachary responded hoarsely, "Got it."

He helped Lenora tidy up her clothes, his eyes as dark as ink, a strange heat flickering in their depths. "Shall we go to the room?"

"All right.

With a blush on her face, Lenora gently nodded.

The two shared an unspoken understanding, stepping out of the car together.

Upon seeing this, Miranda was taken aback. "Has Mrs. Fuller returned as well?"

"Mm."

Watching the two enter the living room one after the other, Miranda suddenly felt puzzled. Why had they both emerged from the driver's side door?

The two individuals entered the room one after the other.

Zachary, unable to contain his eagerness, pressed Lenora against the door panel. He leaned down to kiss her, his tongue passionately exploring her mouth, dancing wildly. He dominated her, fervently sucking on the tip of her tongue. Enveloped by a masculine aura, Lenora's face flushed crimson. Her hands rested on Zachary's shoulders, her body radiating heat. With her eyes closed, she responded to him.

Zachary clung closely to Lenora's body, his large hands swiftly undressing her. He then lifted her horizontally and, with large strides, carried her to the bed and gently laid her down.

He swung one leg over the bed, straddling his knees on either side of her warm, cool thighs. With a swift motion, he removed his suit jacket and tossed it under the bed, yanked off his tie, and leaned over her.

His lips descended upon her earlobe, which turned a flushed red from his gentle suckling, glistening with a dewy sheen.

The kiss moved to her ear, slowly trailing down her neck, to her collarbone, and then to her chest....

He gently lifted her upper body, his hand reaching behind her to unhook her bra, tossing it to the ground. He then leaned over to kiss her.

"Mmm... a bit gentler..."

Lenora closed her eyes, her mind a chaotic mess, as if she were adrift in a boundless sea, bobbing up and

down.

She trembled, unable to resist pulling out her chest, her hands buried in Zachary's hair.

The atmosphere within the room was ambiguous,

Their clothes were carelessly tossed on the ground.

Everywhere was filled with their intermingled panting.

Zachary, holding Lenora's hand, placed it on the belt around his waist. In a low, husky voice, he said, "Help me undo it."

"Mmm..."

Lenora's mind was a complete blank. She could only instinctively unbuckle his belt.

Suddenly, the ring of a phone broke the silence that had enveloped the room.

Lenora regained some consciousness, nudging Zachary, who was on top of her. "Your phone..."

Zachary spoke in a muted voice. "Don't worry. Carry on"

The cell phone rang for a while, then automatically stopped.

In just two seconds, it sounded again.

Zachary furrowed his brows, rolling off Lenora to get out of bed. He picked up his suit jacket from the floor, pulled out his phone from the pocket, glanced at the screen, and answered the call, "Hello, Ms. Wate?" Something was said on the other end of the phone, but it was unclear what..

Zachary's expression grew increasingly serious. "All right, I understand. I'll be there immediately."

He immediately tidied up his clothes, put on his coat, and said to Lenora, who was on the bed, "I have some business to attend to outside." "What's the matter?" Lenora covered herself with the blanket, propping up her body halfway. "Is it absolutely necessary to go at this hour?" Zachary's hand paused as he was tidying his clothes.

"Ms. Wate... It's Yelena, right? Did something happen to Susanna that she had to call you over at this time?"

Seeing his silence, the passion in Lenora's eyes had already subsided, leaving her entire body cold.

"Susanna is missing."

"If someone goes missing, you report it to the police or get people to search for them. What use would it be for you to go?"

Or is Susanna simply waiting for him to go and replace her?

The situation with Susanna is unstable. It's extremely dangerous for her to be alone. I have to go and get things clarified and try my best to replace her in advance. I promise you, once I replace her, I'll return" As Lenora watched Zachary's resolute expression, a part of pain surged through her heart.

He's so chaotically concerned.

This was likely the excuse Susanna used to call Zachary over. She saw things clearly. It was just a pity that Zachary couldn't.

In his eyes, he couldn't allow Susanna to have the slightest mishap.

He wouldn't come back.

She understood in her heart that Zachary would definitely not return once he left.

"But I don't want you to leave. Can you please stay?" Lenora bit her lip, gathering the courage to speak.

"Lenora, stop making a fuss without reason."

"Have you forgotten the promise you made to Grandpa? Or did you just want to cheer him up?"

He held Susanna close to his heart. Whenever anything happened to Susanna, he would rush to her side immediately. So, what was the point of him promising to stay with her?

What was the point of having a husband who could be called away by another woman at any moment?

"I merely promised my grandfather that I would get along well with you, but I never made any specific commitments. Besides, this is a matter of life and death. Why can't you show any empathy?" Zachary's face turned cold, an expression of impatience flashing across his features. He turned around and strode away.

The door slammed shut with a loud bang.

Feeling a sudden weakness wash over her, Lenora collapsed onto the bed, lying flat on her back.

It was so cold.

It seemed that the temperature had dropped in recent days. Despite being covered with a blanket, she still felt cold, shivering uncontrollably. Unable to help herself, she buried her head into the blanket. He said Lenora, stop making a fuss without reason.

He said that he merely promised his grandfather that he would get along well with me, but he never made any specific commitments.

He asked can't I show any empath.

Every single word, every single sentence, was like a sharp sword piercing through Lenora's heart, leaving it riddled with holes and bleeding profusely.

She mustered all her courage, only to be met with such words.

Chapter 57 Do Not Stay Outside

It turned out that she had been overly hopeful.

The harmony of the past few days had lulled her into a sense of security, almost causing her to forget about Susanna and the chasm between her and Zachary

With Susanna around, even if she and Zachary didn't divorce, their days would certainly not be

peaceful.

Lenora curled up on the bed, a chill settling deep within her heart.

With her eyes closed, she tossed and turned restlessly, listening to the ticking of the clock. Despite not knowing how long she had been lying there, sleep still cluded her.

She didn't know when, but eventually, she managed to drift off to sleep..

When she woke up the next day, she was the only one in the bed.

The bedsheet beside was neatly arranged. It was clear at a glance that no one had been there.

Lenora glanced up at the clock on the wall, and it was already past nine.

She tidied up

and went d

Mrs. Fuller, you're awake. I'll go and prepare your breakfast.

"Has Mr. Fuller returned?" Lenora asked softly.

"No, he hasn't returned." Miranda sighed, shaking her head.

"I understand."

With a heavy heart, Lenora sat down on the couch. She glanced at her phone screen, but there were no

messages.

After breakfast, nearing ten o'clock, Lenora had the driver take her to the hospital.

The driver parked the car beneath the hospital building. Lenora stepped out of the vehicle and began walking toward the building. In an absent-minded glance, she noticed a familiar license plate number.

She thought she had seen it incorrectly. Upon taking a closer look, she confirmed that she hadn't made a mistake.

That was Zachary's car.

Hadn't Zachary gone to look for Susanna? Why was he at the hospital?

Lenora ascended the stairs, and before he could even step into the ward, a familiar voice echoed from within. "Old Mr. Fuller, Old Mrs. Fuller, I still remember the last time we met. Old Mr. Fuller had asked me if I liked eating crabs. So many years have passed in the blink of an eye. Old Mr. Fuller, good people are blessed by heaven. You will surely recover."

It was Susanna's voice.

Lenora felt as if she had plunged into an ice cellar for a moment, her whole body seemingly frozen stiff. She stood rooted to the spot, at a loss for what to do.
