Chapter 21

    After reading the message, Zachary was in a bad mood for the rest of the afternoon.


    He had yet to resolve his divorce from Wendy, but now, he had to deal with Ellen too. Compared to Wendy, Ellen was much more troublesome.


    Zachary''s colleagues were right. Ellen was rather difficult to deal with. Not only was her temper short, but she was also entric, unreasonable, and unpredictable.


    Zachary considered simply ignoring her, but he was worried that she woulde after him.


    As he was pondering that, he received a call from Ellen.


    Zachary had blocked her phone number. So, this time, Ellen had called him from an unknown number.


    Unaware of that fact, Zachary epted the call.


    "Zachary, you slept with me yesterday. Are you trying to deny that? I''m warning you. If you don''t apany me tonight, I''ll go to your office and cause a ruckus."


    Zachary''s face turned pale, and he quickly covered his phone''s speaker and dashed to the pantry.


    After making sure that no one was around, he finally raised his phone and asked, "Ellen, are you crazy? Nothing happened between usst night!"


    "I stripped you naked, but you''re saying that nothing happened? No one will believe that. Unblock me on WhatsApp right now. I want to show you something."


    "Can you stop bothering me? I don''t have feelings for you. We are notpatible."


    "Notpatible? Alright. Just you wait. I''m going to contact Yel Corporation right now and tell them that we haven''t gone through the details yet. I''ll ask for you toe over and talk to me in person."


    "You''re insane."


    In a fit of anger, Zachary hung up the phone.


    Still, given Ellen''s personality, she''d actually do as she had said.


    Upon reflection, Zachary ultimately decided to unblock her on WhatsApp.


    His phone chimed. As soon as he unblocked Ellen, she sent him a photo and a video.


    In the photo, Zachary was half-naked. His head was tilted as he and Ellen shared


    a kiss. One of his arms was even around her neck.


    The video was even more staggering. It showed the kiss that Ellen had forced on himst night.


    Zachary was appalled after watching the entire video.


    He quickly sent Ellen a message. "What do you want?"


    She texted, "Stay with me tonight. We''ll talk in person."


    He replied, "So, if I stay with you tonight, you''ll delete the photo and the video? And you won''t bother me again?"


    She answered, "As I''ve said, we''ll talk in person. Alright. I have to go now.


    sk you up tonight. Wait for me


    at Yel Corporation."


    He replied with an ellipsis.


    Zachary then shoved the phone into his pocket. After mulling it over, he decided to


    meet Ellen that night.


    It was necessary to rify some


    things


    d to hassle him


    d surely be affecte


    voce. Otherwise, i


    After work, he sent Anya a message telling her that he had something to do that


    night and that she didn''t have to wait for him.


    Once he sent the message, he left the office in a hurry.


    Soon after walking out of the building, he noticed a red BMW parked not far away.


    Beside the BMW was Ellen. She was dressed in a white, airy sundress that had thin shoulder straps.


    She looked quite pretty. As she stood beside the red BMW, she drew the gazes of many passersby.


    Once she saw Zachary, she waved at him with a radiant smile on her beautifully painted face.


    Compared to Ellen, who was


    beaming, Zachary looked somewhat


    grim. He rushed over and quickly got into the front passenger seat


    without saying anything.


    Ellen followed him into the car. While putting on her seatbelt, she teased him with


    a smile, "Someone seems to be in a hurry."


    Zachary replied, "Hurry up and start the car. I don''t want my colleagues to misunderstand."


    "Misunderstand what? That we''re dating? That''s the truth, anyway. What''s there to misunderstand?"


    She started the car nonchntly, but even after a long time, she still did not start driving.


    Zachary grew anxious. "What are you waiting for? We''re having dinner together, right? Let''s go."
