Chapter 72

Penulis: Summer Knowles
At the apartment building, Mia quickly shooed Steven out of the car.

Sarah chuckled softly and got out too.

Mia was seizing every opportunity to play matchmaker between Sarah and Zachary, pulling Steven aside.

"Mia, let's head up. Mr. Reynolds has been drinking and needs to rest," Sarah walked over to Mia and took her hand.

"But Zac…” Mia widened her eyes, giving Zachary meaningful looks.

Zachary spoke gently, "Mia, Miss Sanders is tired. You should go rest too."

"Oh, alright." Mia let Sarah lead her into the building.

Zachary and Steven leaned against the car side by side, watching them go in.

"Want one?" Steven offered him a cigarette.

Zachary took it but just held it between his fingers, not smoking.

"What about the Chancer family?"

"They need to be taught a lesson."

As night deepened, they got in the car.

After the party incident was settled, Sarah could focus entirely on the psychology knowledge competition.

Just as she submitted the proposal, Mia brought over a stac

    He closed the door, locked it from the outside, and ordered two bodyguards to keep watch.---The next day, Harbour City.Sarah woke after crying all night. Her eyes were swollen, so she put on sunglasses before leaving her room.Zachary noticed immediately. He wanted to ask, but Sarah had already moved away, keeping her distance.“Mindy Hicks went to East Coast,” he said.Sarah froze.“Why did she go there?”“No idea,” Zachary replied with a shrug.“Then this whole trip was pointless,” Sarah said, frustration slipping into her voice.“Not exactly,” Zachary said calmly. “At least we confirmed that she really did know your father.”Sarah nodded.“You’re right. Then let’s head back too. Oh, where’s Mia?”“She said she wants to stay in Harbour City for a couple more days,” Zachary said, sounding faintly impatient. “Lucas is with her.”“Lucas is a good guy,” Sarah said lightly. “He’ll take good care of her.”Zachary watched Sarah’s retreating figure, momentarily lost in though

    Steven’s face darkened. He grabbed Scarlett Larson’s wrist and pulled her robe aside.“You—what are these?” His voice broke with anger. “Who did this to you?”Scarlett burst into tears and violently shook his hand off, wrapping herself tightly again.“I’m fine. You should leave. Nothing happened to me.”Steven stepped into the bathroom. One look at the wet floor told him everything.This was her doing.Anger and heartbreak crashed into him at the same time.“What were you doing?” he demanded. “Why would you do this to yourself?”Scarlett sobbed so hard she could barely breathe.“Dirty. I’m dirty.”Steven’s chest tightened painfully. He tried to pull her into his arms, but she resisted fiercely.“Don’t touch me,” she cried. “I’m filthy.”He held her anyway, refusing to let go.“You’re not dirty,” he said over and over, his voice gentle but firm. “You’re not. You’re the best person I’ve ever known.”As he spoke, he pressed soft kisses into her hair.They stayed like that for

    The bodyguards stepped aside. Just as Steven was about to go inside, Mr. Larson stepped directly in front of him and blocked the way.“What do you think you’re doing?”“I want to see Scarlett.”“She’s already gone abroad,” Mr. Larson said darkly. “What are you planning to do? Hit me too?”Steven shook his head slowly, his face pale.“I don’t believe you.”“What’s there not to believe?” Mr. Larson said with a dismissive look. “Sending her overseas wasn’t a last-minute decision. I’ve been preparing for this for a long time. I’m simply putting Scarlett back on the path she was meant to be on.”He glanced at Steven with open disdain.“And you were just a detour. One that’s over now.”Steven pulled out his phone and dialed the number again.The ringtone came from Mr. Larson’s pocket.Mr. Larson’s expression darkened.Steven, however, let out a quiet breath of relief.“So the message wasn’t sent by her.”“It doesn’t matter anymore,” Mr. Larson said coldly. “Leave. Our family doesn

    Miles away, at the Larson family estate, Scarlett took only a few bites of her food before leaving the dinning table.“I’m full.”Mr. Larson could tell his daughter was in low spirits, but he did not ask any questions.He knew exactly why.Just days earlier, determined to sever things completely between Scarlett and Steven, he had placed a breakup letter outside her bedroom door, written in Steven’s voice.The handwriting had been carefully forged. To prevent Scarlett from contacting Steven, he confiscated her phone and had people watch her closely, forbidding her from leaving the house.The bedroom door shut tight.Scarlett sat inside, silently crying. In her hands was her diary.Ever since she had met Steven, most of its pages had been filled with him.She flipped to the last page. The breakup letter was taped there.There were no extra words. Just a brief explanation. It read less like a letter and more like a notice.Let’s break up. I’m sorry. I can’t give you what you w

    Zachary answered quietly, “I asked about your father.”“She knows,” Sarah said immediately. “She panicked.”She rushed forward.“Miss Hicks!”This time, Mindy could not stay composed. She backed away instinctively.“What are you trying to do, Miss Sanders?”“Miss Hicks, I just want to know the truth about my father,” Sarah said urgently, afraid Mindy would run. “I don’t have any other intentions.”Before Mindy could respond, her manager hurried over and stepped directly between them.“Miss Sanders, Mindy is tired and needs to rest,” the manager said briskly, already pulling Mindy away.Sarah tried to reach out, but before she could even catch the edge of Mindy’s sleeve, she was taken away.She moved to follow, only to be stopped immediately.Zachary walked over.“They probably already know what we’re investigating,” he said. “That’s why they’re avoiding us.”“I just want the truth,” Sarah said, confused and shaken. “Why would she react like that? When I tested her earlier, I

    Mindy placed her hand lightly on Zachary’s shoulder. Around them, the room stirred with surprise. No one had expected her to choose him as her dance partner.“Mr. Reynolds,” Mindy said softly, “I know how much you care about Miss Sanders. Do you know why I asked you to dance?”Zachary’s gaze was cold.“Why?”Mindy lowered her eyes and let out a quiet laugh.“Because I could tell that Miss Sanders likes you too.”“Why do you think that?” A trace of warmth finally slipped into Zachary’s voice.Instead of answering right away, Mindy leaned in a little closer and glanced discreetly toward Sarah.Sarah stood at the edge of the dance floor, her brows drawn together. The champagne glass in her hand trembled before she set it down on the nearby table.“Look,” Mindy murmured, signaling with her eyes.Zachary followed her gaze and smiled faintly.“I already knew.”“But it seems there’s some misunderstanding between the two of you,” Mindy said thoughtfully. “You don’t look entirely at ea
