NovelEnglishIn quick steps, Jesslyn ran upstairs. At the top of the staircase, she couldn't stop herself from looking in the direction of Shirley,
only to see that she was still standing there with Zacharias. Filled with disgruntlement, she wanted to eavesdrop on their
conversation and heard Zacharias’ voice. “I apologize to you on Jesslyn’s behalf.” “You don’t have to.” Shirley shook her head and
spun on her heels.
However, Zacharias grabbed her wrist and pulled her back. Losing her balance, Shirley fell back and landed right into his arms.
“Behave yourself, Zacharias,” she said in annoyance.
“You're the one who didn’t behave yourself first.” “I didn't-" “Didn’t you? Can you swear that you didn’t act inappropriately with me
that night?” When he thought about it, he beca little mad.
“I don’t remember anything about that night.” Shirley denied his word, although ssnippets were crystal clear in her mind.
“Should | help you to recover your memory?” Smirking, he stared at her cherry lips.
“No-" Need for that. Her last few words were sealed by the man’s lips. She wanted to push him away, but he stopped her and held
her hands above her head, pinning them against the wall next to them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith his tall and well-built body pressed against her, she couldn't seem to fight him off, even with her excellent combat skills.
This scene stunned Jesslyn, who was in the foyer, and she covered her mouth with her hands because she was scared to make a
sound out of shock. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she felt stuffy in her chest and breathless.
In her heart, Zacharias was as honorable as a god, but he actually initiated a kiss with this female bodyguard. In addition, she
could tell that the female bodyguard was highly unwilling.
In her mind, she didn’t remember Zacharias ever being this flirtatious with any woman. He had always been a person of
abstinence, and it seemed like no woman was deserving of his initiative and worth. But now, this woman had appeared, and she
was by his side.
Biting her lip, Jesslyn fought back the sadness in her chest and left the scene unnoticed.
The next second, Shirley shoved aside the man on her. Breathlessly, she glared at him in anger. “You shouldn't act recklessly.”
Taking a step back, he felt his lips with the tips of his slender fingers.
Accompanied by the smirk on the edge of his lips, he was exuding the air of a jerk-alluring and dangerous at the stime.
When Shirley raised her head, she had a feeling that she was targeted by a ferocious beast.
Then, his phone started ringing, and after checking it for a split second, he paced to the French windows and answered the call
while Shirley hurriedly slipped downstairs.
Holding her cell phone and going downstairs, Jesslyn caught sight of Shirley standing at the door and was overwhelmed with
jealousy. If Zacharias courts this woman, she will be the future Mrs. Vice President. What a noble status that is, one that countless
women can only dream of! And now, this status is lying on a silver platter right in front of this woman. Once she gives the nod,
Zacharias will definitely marry her.
Grabbing her purse, she paced to the door with Tony, and Shirley pushed the door open for them. “Thank you, my goddess, Tony
hurriedly thanked.
Meanwhile, Jesslyn kept her head lowered as she walked past Shirley. Because she had just cried, she didn’t want her to notice that
her eyes were swollen.
In the car, Tony realized she had just cried and gasped in surprise, asking, “Jesslyn, what's wrong?” “Tony, is Zacharias in love with
that female bodyguard?” she asked.
Since she already knew this, he nodded. “Yeah, I've been waiting to tell you this, but | was worried you wouldn't believe me.” “Is

“Why wouldn't she? They're a perfect match for each other, and | must admit that Uncle Zacharias has impeccable taste,” Tony
complimented.
Suddenly, Shirley’s face collapsed into her hands, and she started sobbing woefully. “What about me, then? | love Zacharias so
much. What am | going to do after this?” Tony felt sorry for her and consoled her while driving away, “Jesslyn, don’t be so upset!
Not anyone can handle a man like Uncle Zacharias.” Even though unwilling, Jesslyn had to resign to fate because she could never
be compared to Shirley's family background. All she could do was envy her and hate herself for not having a background like hers.
