Chapter 1284
Murray was seething, but dared not express his anger, and so was Olina The thought of how Zoey used to keep
their house immaculately clean and prepare meals for them without complaints, made the contrast glaringly
apparent
Now that Murray was marned to Evelyn, they hardly even got to see him. Olina lamented to Murray, but there was
nothing he could do. Coupled with work related stresses, he felt frustrated
These days, he increasingly cherished the virtues of Zoey, the perfect wife and mother so he couldn’t help but wait
for her downstairs at his office building
When he saw Zoey Murray almost didn’t recognize her
Zoey’s style had become more elegant. Her camel–colored coat gave her an air of an aristocratic lady from the
early 20th century
His eyes lit up and he called out Zoey
Hearing his voice Zoey showed a hint of disgust in her eyes, wanting nothing more than to avoid this conversation.
She lowered her head, intending to get into her car
But Murray approached quickly, his gaze sweeping over her
“Zoey it’s been a while You seem to have become more beautiful.”
When he mentioned her beauty his eyes shone even brighter
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZoey not wanting to waste her breath on this man, frowned, ‘What do you want?”
Murray knew he had overstepped in the past. He had abandoned her when their house was half built, dumped her
with the debt, and quickly hooked up with his boss’s daughter it was only natural that she would be cold towards
him.
But didn’t her cold demeanor imply that she couldn’t let go of him?
Yes, they had been together for seven years, having known each other since their youth. Women, being sentimental
creatures, tend to hold on to their relationships
He sighed softly
“Zoey, I didn’t realize you took my words to heart. Your style is indeed more appealing now. I guess my marriage to
Evelyn was a big blow to you. Seeing you like this, I find myself attracted”
Upon hearing his words, Zoey nearly gagged.
But Murray grabbed her wrist.
Tm married now yet you’re still hung up on me. We were together for seven years, I know you can’t let go. Zoey, I
can give you a chance to stay by my side. Don’t worry find time to be with you on weekdays, but I need to spend
the weekends at my father–in–law’s
He was treating Zoey as a backup lover.
Zoey slapped him hard across the face
“You’re shameless, Murray We were together for so many years, and I never saw through you
Murray touched his cheek, his eyes glowing even brighter
“Zoey, your anger only shows that you care about met
Zoey could hardly believe it. How could such an ordinary man be so confident?
She must have been blind in the past to have fallen for him.
“Let go!
Murray refused firmly believing that Zoey’s anger stemmed from her inability to let go of him
But the next moment, a luxury car sped towards them, stopping just two inches away from his legs. The blinding
headlights shone directly into his face, making it impossible for him to open his eyes
He felt as though the car was going to run him over and started to sweat profusely, instinctively releasing Zoey
Zoey frightened, hurried to leave but upon seeing the license plate of the luxury car, she recognized it as belonging
to that man
Tonight was her turn to serve him if she ran away, the consequences would be dire
Taking a deep breath, she obediently walked to the car and got in
Murray, working at Sunshine Realty and having seen some of the world with his father–in–law, recognized the brand
of the luxury cat
This cat was one of the most luxurious cars in the world, with only twenty available globally
Even in the affluent city of Greenfield, fewer than five people owned one
He couldn’t believe it. He knew Zoey and her family situation very well
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHer mother disliked her and her stepfather had nearly committed an unthinkable act against her When Belinda
found out, she blamed Zocy for being flirtatious and almost stealing her man
After that Zoey rarely went home, only making a phone call to greet her family during holidays.
Her mother didn’t want her to come back fearing that her husband was still infatuated with Zoey
But Zoey being kind–hearted, always remembered the hardships her mother endured while raising her When she
started earning money, the sent some home
Even though she didn’t visit, she never stopped sending money
So even thought her mother detested her she would still pick up her calla
The little bit of affection was bought by Zoey with money. She pretended not to know, but Murray saw through it a
long time ago.
Zoey was a woman with an extreme lack of security Since her parents couldn’t provide her with a sense of security,
she became deeply dependent on men.
In the past, Murray was that man for her
Murray watched as the luxury car reversed, then audaciously drove past him, almost knocking him ovel
If the person in the car really wanted his life, he would already be dead
Chapter 1284
The person in the car was warning him
Murray clenched his fist. How did Zoey come to know such a high status individual?
