True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)
Chapter 1172

"Mr. Lowe, you'd better be polite when you talk to me. Otherwise, I won't tell you a thing if I'm not happy." There was a low-key arrogance in his tone, he sounded serious. What was this man trying to do?

Zachary frowned as pulled himself together and said, "Since you took the initiative to call me, that means that you have the intention of telling me. So is there a need for you to pretend?"

"Hmph, since you're curious, don't be so stubborn. It's better to show a little weakness so that people would feel better. Maybe then they will tell you."

"Tell me," Zachary said in a deep voice.

Fabian smiled and said, "She's ill."

Upon hearing that.

Zachary's body shook. A shocked expression appeared on his face. He found it hard to believe.

He gripped the cup so tightly that his knuckles turned pale.

Fabian looked at him with a faint smile. He scrutinized Zachary with his sharp gaze with no intention of hiding it.

The look in his eyes was so sharp that it could burn a hole in Zachary's body.

Zachary pursed his lips, and only then did he replace his voice. He asked with difficulty, "What kind of illness?"

Fabian smiled without saying anything.

Zachary frowned. It seemed that this man did it on purpose.

He did not urge him either; he just looked at Fabian and waited.

Just when his patience was about to run out, Fabian slowly uttered, "She almost died."

Zachary narrowed his eyes and his pupils constricted. He looked at Fabian with disbelief and asked, "What did you say?"

"The mother of your child almost died." Fabian said it word by word again, "Autoimmune disease. She had been undergoing treatment in the United States that entire year. She's fine now, don't worry." Zachary's heart tightened and dropped again. He felt like he was sitting on a roller coaster. His heart heaved and dipped; it was maddening.

"But she can't get pregnant within two years. So, you have to take it easy. Don't forget about doing birth control." Fabian reminded him again.

Zachary suddenly recalled. After he and Yvonne did it, she sent him a message saying she hadn't taken the pill.

At that time, he was angry at how she had directly taken the pill without question nor showing misery.

Only now did he know the truth.

He suddenly couldn't accept it.

Fabian spoke again. "If you are careful enough, you can feel a lump in the muscle on both sides of her femoral head. It was caused by injections. There are also lumps on both sides of her shoulders, and needle marks on her wrists."

All of a sudden, Zachary was speechless.

He hadn't noticed.

He was impatient every time; he wanted to take a closer look at Yvonne every time but constantly failed to control himself.

He was shocked to hear so many unexpected things from this man.

At this time, Fabian put a file on the table and pushed it over. He said to Zachary, "Take a look at it yourself. Her disease is rare. Her autoimmune disease may be cured for now but there's a chance it may relapse one day. It's best if you take good care of her. Don't constantly let her mood rise and fall too drastically. It's too cruel for someone who had just recovered."

Zachary pursed his lips and muffled an okay with difficulty.

He wanted to say more, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't.

He fell deep in thought.

Fabian stood up and said to Zachary, "You don't have to tell Yvonne that I came to see you today. Although that woman is brave, she will not be willing to show weakness." Zachary nodded.

"Oh, by the way, the reason she left you seven years ago may be related to your father." Fabian said, "You can use this clue to investigate. Maybe you'll be able to replace something." "My father?" Zachary was stunned, and something flashed through his mind.

Back then, his father was indeed worried that he would delay his studies because of his personal matters, and there were overtones in his words.

Back then, because he couldn't let go of Yvonne, he didn't want to go abroad. This made his father furious.

But he didn't expect that his father knew about his relationship with Yvonne.

Could it be that his father found out about that matter, went to look for Yvonne, and asked her to

leave?

So this was why Yvonne always remained silent every time he asked for the reason.

If that was the case, Zachary was very conflicted. Many years had passed, and Yvonne had returned. But was the reason she did not say anything was that she was afraid he would hold a grudge against his father?

After Zachary struggled to face reality for some time, he turned to look at Fabian.

Fabian nodded and looked down at him. Finally, he smiled and said, "I've said what I should've said, as well as what I shouldn't have said. I'm leaving."

Zachary also stood up and opened his mouth to try to speak. Finally, he said, "Thank you for telling me all this."

Fabian spoke again, "As a man, you should be more generous. Don't always live in your own world and act as if she had wronged you. If you ask yourself in return, aren't you partly responsible for your negligence?"

Zachary was speechless; he could only silently admit it.

Fabian left.

Zachary sat in the cafe alone; his heart beat wildly.

Later on, he pondered on many things. As he thought about them, he suddenly got up and drove home.

The Lowe family.

Madam Lowe was surprised to see her son come back in the afternoon. But she was even more worried when she saw his haggard face. "Zachary, what's wrong?"

His eyes were bloodshot, and his chin was stubbly; he didn't look handsome anymore.

This was simply how one looked after being tortured by love.

"Mom!" Zachary shouted.

Madam Lowe realized that something was wrong and said to all the servants, "You all can leave now."

"Yes, Madam."

As soon as the servants left, Madam Lowe immediately said, "What happened to you? You look so haggard. Did you quarrel with Maria's mother?"

"Mom, did Dad ever tell you he stopped Yvonne and me from being together?" Zachary asked directly.

Madam Lowe was taken aback. "Stop you two from being together? Why?"

Seeing his mother so confused, Zachary's heart grew cold. His mother did not know the reason.

Looking at his mother's strange expression, he knew she was telling the truth. She didn't know what was going on.

It seemed that she knew nothing about what had happened.

"I only found out today." Zachary said in a low voice, "Back then, Yvonne left because of Dad. He must have looked for her and asked her to leave me.

"How could such a thing happen?" Madam Lowe was astonished and looked at her son, "Who told you that?"

"Mom, don't worry. I'm going to verify it now." Zachary said, "Don't worry. I may not come back for a few days. Please take care of Maria for me. Tell her that I will come back in a few days." "Zachary." Madam Lowe said with great worry, "Son, seeing you like this makes me worried."

"Mom, it's all right. Everything is going to be alright. Now that I know the reason, I won't be conflicted anymore." Zachary showed a sour and vacuous smile.
