All Chapters of Relentless Pursuit of His Lost Love: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

Esther held Betty’s hand as she didn’t want a repeat of what happened this morning. It was traumatic for her as it only evoked the fear she already forgot. She had been physically abused when she was a child and the trauma it left her took years before she eventually forgot about it. But today’s incident brought back the painful memory.  Little did Esther know that Maverick heard everything that the woman said. Maverick’s blood boiled while listening to the woman’s remark against Esther.  Maverick stood and approached the table and looked at the woman with a condescending smile. He growled. “Are you bitter because you couldn’t get a rich man?”  “Excuse me? Who are you to judge me? Even when you’re ric

Hearing her grandma shouting, Zoey released Maurice collar but that was before giving him a death glare.  Maurice fixed his shirt while scrutinizing the insolent woman before him and then he turned to look at the old woman.  “Mrs Desmond, everything had been taken care of. Your bill has been covered. And here is the check to compensate you.”  Irritated, Zoey reached out for the check and tore it into pieces. “Do you think we are after your money? You rich people always think you can just get away because of your money.”  “Zoey, the young man is now sorry. Why don’t you let it go?” Mrs Demond helplessly said. Her granddaughter has developed a dislike towar

Betty saw Maverick as well and looked at Esther’s reaction. Esther’s face was devoid of color as if there was no blood in her face.    “Are you okay?” Betty asked with concern.    “Yes, let’s go.” She held Betty’s arm and Betty felt her hands trembling at the moment. Betty just sighed and thought. ‘If she wasn’t stubborn, this thing wouldn’t have happened. It’s she who pushed him away.’    Maverick just walked past them as if he hadn’t seen Esther and it hurt her so much. Weeks ago, he was adamant to become her boyfriend but now he doesn’t even glance at her.    Esther became even more depressed at the thought that Maverick and Agnes spent the entire day together.   

Esther looked at Betty and it gave her strength to see Betty’s reassuring smile. She lifted her foot to take a step away from Maverick, however just as she had taken a step, Maverick spoke. “Running away from me Esther?”  Esther paused and turned to look at Maverick. Suddenly a snowball crashed into her shoulder, accompanied by the man’s chuckle. It startled Esther for a moment but she gathered herself shortly, seeing the man was laughing. ‘He isn’t angry.’ Quickly, Esther crouched down to form a snowball and threw it to Maverick. The employees who were waiting to see Esther humiliated were equally surprised. Instead of dwelling on it, they resume the snowball fight.  “Time out! Time out!” Esther lifted her hand

Slowly, Spencer closed the door of their room and returned to his parents. “She’s asleep,” Spencer gave his parents an apologetic look. Both Frank and Gloria chuckled remembering the time she was pregnant with Spencer. It was in the dead of night and it was raining cats and dogs when she asked Frank to buy a pizza. And when Frank returned with the box of pizza, Gloria was fast asleep and no matter how Frank woke her up to eat the pizza she just refused to stir up. The pizza ended up in the fridge but later discarded as Gloria didn’t want it anymore. “We totally understand it. Don’t worry about me and your mom.” Frank reached out to squeeze his son’s shoulder, reassuring him. “Thanks, dad, mom.” Spencer went back to their room after his parents retired for the night. *** Zoey visited her new three-month- old cafe branch. As she entered the cafe the staff were in a hurry. “What’s going on here?” Seeing more than fifty cups of coffee on the countertop. “The CEO of the comp
