Zacharias' Second Chance Chapter 24 Protection
Christopher frowned. As Yvonne went further away, he felt something squeezing his heart. He wanted to go after her, and that idea shocked him. He wasn't someone meddlesome."Mr. Gunther, bad news. Ms. Gray is taking her own life again! Her family said she couldn't take the hurt of you ditching her after what you did six years ago!" James came in a hurry, staring at him nervously."They've given back the money and compensation. They want you to take responsibility for their daughter."Christopher massaged his forehead. 'I got myself in trouble,' he thought."We're going to the Grays' place," Christopher said solemnly, and then he pointed at Tim. "Take her home safely. It's not safe for her to walk the streets alone at night." He knew Yvonne would get in trouble if she went out looking like that.There were drunkards around this bar.Tim reluctantly went after Yvonne. As Christopher predicted, before Yvonne even left the bar, someone was already hitting on her."What's wrong, cuti

"You need money?" Tim asked while they were on the way back.Yvonne said nothing and got out of the car."Take this. I don't lug cash around, but I'll come back with more tomorrow." Tim stuffed whatever cash he found in the car into Yvonne's hand. "Don't sell yourself out for money. I know you're used to the good life, but that was yesterday. You need to work hard now."He thought, 'Selling your body is going to make you despicable.'Since he used to love Yvonne, Tim thought he should give her some advice, not to mention Yvonne protected him just now.Yvonne looked at the cash and left without taking it. This was an insult to her."You think this isn't enough?" Tim was mad. "How much did your customers pay you? I'll give you double, and you sleep with me!" His ears were getting red, but he didn't realize it.He cursed himself for his bravado.Yvonne bit her lip and shot Tim a glare, and then she ran into an alleyway without saying a word."Damn it," Tim cursed again. He must b

"Zacharias, you were her fiance! Do you have a conscience?" Caleb was furious."Conscience? Your family's made up of liars, and yet you're talking about conscience. She had no conscience when she cheated on me and gave birth to the bastard!" Zacharias warned, "Give her to me, or else…"Yvonne woke up groggily and heard Zacharias' voice. She started shivering.Wobbling, she got down on her feet and looked at Zacharias. She could feel her hot breath. "I'll go with you. Let Caleb and Brady go."Zacharias was a madman who could do anything to get what he wanted. If he could let those men humiliate her, he could hurt Caleb and Brady.Caleb said anxiously, "But you have a fever. You need to go to the hospital.""I'm alright, Caleb." Yvonne shook her head. She went over to Zacharias' side and got into the car.Zacharias liked how she was behaving, and his gaze got gentler. In fact, he knew what he did the night before was a bit too harsh."What's the torture today?" asked Yvonne hoars
Zacharias' Second Chance Chapter 27 Let Her Marry a Madman
Clang!The sound of porcelain crashing came from the bedroom. Worried about Lara, Zacharias rushed in to check out the situation. In the room, Yvonne stood in a corner with a broken porcelain bowl at her feet."What is she planning? She wants to kill me! The soup is too hot!" Lara shouted angrily with reddened eyes. "Zach, she's trying to kill me!"Emotionlessly, Yvonne lowered her head and hid her hand behind her back. The hot soup had spilled on her hand, which was now scalded and burning painfully."Yvonne, if you're up to no good, don't blame me for being nasty." Zacharias had never doubted Lara's words. While glaring at Yvonne furiously, he held Lara in his arms to comfort her.Yvonne was already numb to this situation and wasn't bothered by their intimate actions in front of her because she no longer loved him. Still, she remembered her heartbreaking pain when this man personally sent her to jail five years ago. But now, she was void of emotions.She even felt that Zach
Zacharias' Second Chance Chapter 28 Hiding in the Study
Zacharias' face darkened. This was a stain on his life that he had not accepted yet. He had been with his fiance since high school, and yet she slept with another man. He even caught her red-handed at the hotel. She was very protective of her lover and refused to tell him who that man was. She even bore him a child. "Yvonne, you were looking at schools for your kid, right? Steven's son owns a house in a district with very good schools. They have everything from kindergartens to high schools. Marry him, and your problem is solved," Lara said indifferently. Yvonne didn't know how far else they would go. All she knew was the fiery sensation of pain coming from her scalded hand. She was too afraid to fight back and did not argue back. "You're looking for a solution to the bastard's schooling, aren't you? Well, are you going to marry him?" Zacharias desperately wanted to see just how far she was willing to go for that man's child. How much would she sacrifice? What humiliations
Zacharias' Second Chance Chapter 29 Beautiful Yet Easily Shattered
Yvonne blankly stared at Christopher. Her fingers felt numb. He held a hand out to her. "Give me your hand."She subconsciously reached out to him. Just as her fingers were about to touch his, she abruptly shrank back and curled away in fear. "Dirty..."She was a dirty woman. She did not deserve this, for she would dirty him too. In her eyes, he was as perfect as a god. She should not sully him at all. He scowled in response. Just why did he care about her? "Put it on yourself. It'll scar otherwise."She was way too pale. Her fingers looked like they were made of china, which made the red patch on her hand even more horrifying. She felt like an exquisite ceramic art piece—beautiful yet easily shattered. With fear in her eyes, she tentatively reached out. Once she grabbed it, her hand snapped back as she curled back up into a ball. He chuckled. She looked just like a stray cat. She was extremely wary and constantly in attack mode, yet too afraid to fight back. What
Zacharias' Second Chance Chapter 30 Everything Felt Like an Act
"When will you stop hiding?" Christopher asked with raised eyebrows. He was now seated at the desk. Yvonne was hiding in the corner. When she could hear no one else outside the door, she cautiously crawled out from behind the curtains. After spreading some burn salve over her hand, she moved to put the salve back in the kit. "T-Thank you." She kept her head low as she uneasily pulled out a few ten-dollar bills from her pocket. This was all she had earned through scavenging for recyclables. "About the cake from that day... Thank you. Brady loved it."She smiled. Her smile seemed somewhat forced. While he was not a good man, she thought he was a much better man than those evil people. He looked at the bills in her hand and uttered in a deep voice, "Keep them. I'll get them from you when I'm short on cash."She awkwardly clenched her fingers around the bills before hurriedly tucking them back into her pocket. It was just a joke, yet it was enough to make her eyes go red.
Zacharias' Second Chance Chapter 1 Nightmare Begins
Yvonne Starr stood before the prison of Seaton, shivering as the winds blew against her."Don't ever come back to crime. Lead a better life."Yvonne bowed at the prison guard. It had been five years since she was sent here. She was only 21 when she was sentenced to prison.A black Maybach stopped by the road. The man inside said coldly, "Get in the car." He was Yvonne's brother, or at least she thought he was, until one day they found out they weren't related by blood.Yvonne hung her head low. Nervously, she said, "Brother…""I am not your brother. Don't call me that." Chester Starr's face fell, and he checked the time. "You stole 21 years of my sister's life. You subjected her to humiliation in that family. Do not call me your brother."Yvonne tried to say something, but nothing came out. The story went like this: the only daughter of the Starr Family, Yvonne, was the child of the nanny. The real lady of the family, however, was switched at birth.A long while later, Yvonne sa
