Chapter 93 You Have Lost

"Zack, not so hard, Susanna said.

"Sorry."

Everyone interpreted the exchange as them flirting

After all, flirting would certainly spice up the dance.

Lenora still remembered the day she danced with Zachary. He had teased her until her cheeks flushed red, and in that instant, they had managed to close the distance between them, with a passionate spark igniting.

Had it not been for Susanna's phone call, their evening would have been incredibly wonderful.

Unfortunately, there was no turning back time.

Susanna was the gap between them that could never be bridged.

Once the first song ended, the guests at the venue promptly began to form pairs and dance.

Meanwhile, Zachary was distracted, his grip on Susanna's hand slackening. Yet, Susanna quickly caught his hand back

"Zack, aren't we going to continue?"

Zachary said, "I've already fulfilled my promise to you.

Susanna bit her lip in frustration, stubbornly clinging onto Zachary's sleeve.

Zachary glanced at her hand and casually said, "There are many people here. I'm trying not to embarrass you. You should know better."

Left with no choice, Susanna reluctantly let go of Zachary's sleeve.

"Susanna, you must have heard the story of The Boy Who Cried Wolf. At this rate, the feelings between us will eventually be worn away. I hope you what's good for you."

"Zack, I know I messed up. I'm sorry. It's just that I was scared, scared that one day you wouldn't come. L missed you so much..."

That day, he had prepared a ring for her.

Even if she hadn't gotten Charles to seek him out, he would have still come to see her.

However, her cunning scheme backfired. She played the victim, but it only served to irritate Zachary further.

Zachary had already heard these words once before and he cut her off.

Unlock succeeded

Zachary turned his head, intending to walk toward Lenora, only to suddenly realize that the figure in the

corner had disappeared.

He halted, his gaze sweeping through the crowd in search of her.

When he finally found her, Zachary's eyes darkened.

At that moment, Lenora was dancing with Jonas.

When Jonas invited her to dance, she found no reason to refuse.

Lenora was not particularly skilled at dancing, and being aware of an intense gaze fixed on her made her feel extremely uncomfortable. This threw her off a few times, but eventually, she managed to finish the dance routine. Lenora waved her hand at Jonas. "That's all for me. I don't want to dance anymore. I'm completely embarrassing myself."

"Don't worry, I'll take it slower. Let's try it again. Practice makes perfect after all."

"Let me give it another shot then." With that, the two danced to a second song

Zachary found a spot to sit down, cradling a glass of red wine in his hand.

In the midst of the gathering, Lenora and Jonas danced to several songs in succession. Lenora's rhythm and dance steps became increasingly steady, showing marked improvement. At the same time, Zachary's eyes grew increasingly gloomy.

Once the music ended, someone brought out a cake. The cake was an impressive ten layers high, with each. tier offering a unique and exquisite design. It was indeed a sight to behold. Everyone gathered in a circle, clapping in rhythm as they began to sing Happy Birthday.

"Happy birthday to you... Happy birthday to you..."

When the song concluded, loud applause erupted.

It was time to cut the cake.

Naturally, Susanna had the honor to cut the first slice. She cut off a piece and handed it to Avery

"Zack, would you mind cutting the rest for me?"

Zachary remained silent. Hence, Susanna began to slice the cake from top to bottom with the plastic knife in hand.

There were quite a few actresses present at the event. In order to keep their figures, they could forego eating the cake, but they couldn't refuse to accept it when offered.

Everyone was naturally shrewd. Even those who had gotten their cake lingered around, trying every trick in the book to strike up a conversation.

Lenora stood outside the crowd instead of squeezing her way in.

Jonas asked, "Do you want some cake? I can get a piece for you if you like."

"No need. I'll go get it myself later. While I'm at it, I'll wish Ms. Carston a happy birthday."

Jonas found Lenora's words to be incredibly sensible and nodded in response. "Sounds good."

Little did he know that Lenora's thoughts were quite the opposite of his own.

Just as Susanna's birthday celebration is nearing its smooth conclusion, I will appear before her with a smile, wishing her a happy birthday. Undoubtedly, this will leave her in an awkward shock. Thinking of this scene, Lenora couldn't wait any longer.

People had already started to leave, while the crowd around the cake cart had dwindled slightly."

At that moment, Susanna called out, "Who hasn't gotten a piece of cake yet?"

With a smile, Lenora stepped forward and responded, "Me."

"Wait a moment-Susanna's expression was full of glee. However, she froze the moment she saw Lenora, and a fleeting moment of tension filled the air.

Lenora's smile widened as she said, "Zack. I haven't had any cake yet. Hurry and cut me a slice. Ms. Carston, happy birthday. I've waited outside for so long just to wish you in person."

As she spoke, she cast a glance at Susanna's fingers, clearly noticing the design of the ring. Indeed, it was the very same one from Zachary's car.

Onlookers, unaware of the true circumstances, would have assumed that they were close.

However, Susanna could tell that Lenora was deliberately trying to upset her.

Even then, she had no choice but to smile and say, "Thank you."

Lenora replied, "You're welcome."

Zachary glanced at Lenora, carefully selecting a piece with two strawberries and handing it to her.

"Thanks, Zack. Wow, I have two strawberries."

Zachary pursed his lips upon haring it.

Lenora wore a smile on her face, but he felt incredibly awkward. He had imagined that upon her return. she might treat him with indifference, ignore him, or even argue with him. However, he never her to be full of similes, as if nothing had ever happened With the cake in her hands, Lenora left, casually saying, "Zack, try to come home early tonight."

Zachary responded, "Alright."

These words could easily trigger dirty thoughts in one's mind.

Naturally, everyone assumed that the home Lenora was referring to was the Fuller residence, which was perfectly reasonable.

Only Susanna, fist clenched, narrowed her eyes insidiously, wishing she could give Lenora a couple of good slaps

She knew she had to endure the moment, not allowing any hint of her anger to show.

Otherwise, people might figure out Zachary and Lenora's relationship.

Lenora watched Susanna suffer in silence, feeling exceptionally pleased inside.

Perhaps I should have done this earlier, subtly challenging her in public to strike her where it hurts the most. Only then can I force her to swallow her anger.

After finishing the cake, Lenora made a trip to the restroom.

As she passed the staircase, Susanna called out to her, "Lenora."

Within the dimly lit stairwell, Susanna, clad in an elegant dress, seemed somewhat out of place.

"Ms. Carston, what can I do for you?"

"I have something to tell you," Susanna said, turning to walk toward the staircase.

What is it?" With a calm and unhurried pace, Lenora ascended the steps and arrived in front of Susanna,

Lenora speculated that Susanna was probably going to gloat about the events that took place on the twentieth of September and the birthday banquet itself

Susanna stood in the shadows, her gaze filled with jealousy as she looked at Lenora. "Lenora, you've lost. 1 told you that Zack would come to see me on the twentieth of September. He stayed by my bedside all night. If I were you, Lenora, I would have divorced him a long time ago!" Lenora maintained a calm expression. "Is that so? But the very next day, he pursued me to where I was on a business trip and even promised me..."

Lenora paused mid-sentence, a meaningful look in her eyes. "Do you want to know what he promised me?" she asked.
