Chapter 531

They both spun around to see Yaxley, all dressed up, approaching them. "Visiting a friend at the hospital and I bump into you two. Talk about destiny."Yosef did not feel like calling him out on whether it was destiny or just spying. "Haven't left Starville yet, Mr. Lark? Don't you have a company to run?"Yaxley chuckled. "Heading back to Sylverton tomorrow. That's why it's such a lucky break to see you and Ms. Lowry before I go. Have you guys eaten? How about joining me for dinner?"Zara knew he was partly to blame for Trevor's death. Her eyes, once friendly in Westwood, were then frosty when she looked at him.Yaxley noticed her chilly stare and grinned. "Ms. Lowry, why the cold look? It's not about Henrik's jump, is it?"He looked at their hands together and said, "You're not even upset with Mr. Webb anymore. Can't you forgive me just this once? I didn't mean to do it."It seemed to him that if she could forgive Yosef for even more, she could surely forgive her.Zara's mind f

Zara could not stop herself and gagged over and over again. The fishy smell would not leave her nose, and she pushed the raw fish slices away from her.Yosef might have thought she was just pretending, and that would be a smart guess since moms-to-be really are sensitive to fishy smells.He put his arm around Zara, gave her water, and told the server, "Get rid of this food!"Yaxley, seeing her look really sick, also urged the server, "Hurry, take it away."The server cleared the dishes quickly, but Zara still felt the room was full of that awful smell. She could not take it and stood up fast. "I need the restroom!"Yosef frowned. "Charvi, go with her and help her.""Alright," Charvi said, following Zara.Zara had to keep up her act, so once out of the room, she could not let on she was sick. She bit her lip, fought the urge to be sick, and did not let Charvi see. She rushed into the restroom and locked herself in a stall.Then, she covered her mouth and threw up quietly again a

Yosef turned to him, and Yaxley grinned. "If she ends up in jail, Ms. Lowry won't be causing any waves. Heck, whether she makes it out at all would be a roll of the dice. That way, he's off the hook, nice and clean."Yosef's eyes were as cold and empty as a winter stream in the farthest north. "Evidence against Zara?"Yaxley nodded. "I'm not sure what it is, but he talked like it was the real deal. Guess we'd have to ask Ms. Lowry herself if she's done something she shouldn't have, something messy enough to get caught."Without a word, a chill seemed to settle over Yosef's already frosty expression.Zara walked back into the private room to find the table set with a new spread of delicious-looking dishes. They stayed and enjoyed their meal until it was quite late.Leaving West Palace, Yaxley quietly slipped behind Zara and secretly put something hard and card-like into her hand.Zara quickly glanced down, but the hallway lights were too dim to make out what it was. She looked up

Yosef noticed her fright and said softly, "I'm just curious."Zara had indeed been startled by his abrupt question. She held her breath. "I didn't check. It was too dark, and the room was too dim. I couldn't see anything. "And then, when Lukas and the others sensed trouble and were about to enter, I had to jump out the window and run. There was no time."She quickly asked, "Is he dead?" The thought crossed her mind... Did she kill someone?Yosef was pondering Yaxley's words. He knew Zara would not harm anyone without cause. The only time she had was during that kidnapping when she had struck someone. Coincidentally, that person had never been found. That was why the thought occurred to him."It's nothing," he said.Zara gripped her blanket tightly, thinking hard. Finally, she said with certainty, "No, Eric isn't dead. If he were, Lukas would've told everyone about my part in the murder to get his own sentence cut down. However, he's kept quiet. He wouldn't protect me, would he?"

Yosef did not get mad. "You've thought it through. However, we'll be the stars of our wedding. I just need you there. I don't mind if anyone else is missing, and the guests won't make a fuss."He glanced at the door, and a helper wheeled in a rack of dresses. "Try on the wedding dress," he said.Zara grabbed a desk calendar and kept flipping through it, not really looking at anything. She was just avoiding Yosef's gaze."Please, try them on," Yosef said, his voice gentler. "I designed one of them myself."Zara gripped the calendar a little tighter.He was not known for being soft. He was usually distant and cool. Whenever he spoke to her gently, it felt like he was trying to sweet-talk her.She glanced at him briefly, then turned her attention back to the calendar filled with numbers.Yosef could tell she was affected. "I was inspired back in high school when I watched you dance. I've held onto that inspiration for years."Her eyelashes flickered, but she gave no other sign tha

Did her question mean she was ready to say 'yes'?Yosef hugged her close, right into his arms.He had just loosened his tie and the top two buttons of his shirt, showing off his neck and collarbones. He looked grown-up and kind of handsome. His voice was steady. "You were looking at the calendar earlier. What's on your mind?""I was checking the calendar because I felt like I was forgetting something important. Then I saw my birthday coming up... let go of me." Zara tried to push him away, frowning, but Yosef barely noticed her effort. He was surprised. "When is it?""Next Monday." Zara was annoyed that he had no idea. "You say you've liked me for years, but you can't even remember my birthday."Yosef could not help but smile, feeling a bit misunderstood. He gently bumped his forehead against hers, feeling that she was not pushing him away as much. She could be tough and tender, hard to cheer up but also easy to make a smile, depending on if he said the right thing.He remind

Yosef liked to be in charge, even when it came to kissing. He held her neck so she could not back away and kissed her lips perfectly and quickly. Their lips touched softly, and it was like lighting a match in dry grass. The feeling spread quickly and burned bright. That kiss, full of warmth and lasting longer than usual, was different from any other. It was so enchanting that Zara did not try to escape. Instead, she held onto Yosef's shirt, closed her eyes a little, and kissed him back. Yosef felt something wild start to grow in his heart. After a little while, they stopped kissing, and Yosef looked at her closely. She did not seem upset anymore. "Be good and call me 'Yos' again," he said. Zara looked down. "You really like that nickname, huh?" Yosef gently massaged her neck and said softly, "Maybe it's because I've never really had it, so I can't stop thinking about it." Zara looked into his dark eyes, her lips almost saying the name. Right at that moment, however, his pho

Wilder, lounging on a couch across the room, heard Yosef's call. Beer in hand, he strolled over, ignoring the foxy-eyed woman. With a casual flick of his bottle, he signaled her to make room."Yosef, is something wrong?""I'm getting married to Zara the day after tomorrow. I need more people there."Wilder hesitated, then casually asked, "Is there a problem, Yosef? Aren't the plans we made good enough? It's not like anyone would be bold enough to disrupt the wedding, right?""Just double the number," Yosef replied firmly.Wilder tapped his wine bottle against Yosef's glass. "You got it. Don't worry, Yosef, I'll make sure your bride is safe."That's when the woman with the sly eyes realized he was about to be married, and she felt a pang of sadness....In Starville, brides were supposed to leave from their own homes.However, Zara did not really have a home of her own. East Coast was Yosef's, the apartment she had shared with Cecil was just a rental, and the house in Fleent co

Chapter 539

Suddenly missed her a lot?...Zara would think back to those words in many dreams to come.Her heart would ache as if it were being sliced piece by piece. The pain made her shiver and twitch, leaving her torn between the pain of hate and the depth of love.She knew one thing for sure. If they had just called it quits on the day she handed in her notice…Or if they had ended it when she first started her job at Schmidt Group...Or even if they had gone their separate ways when he stood up for Beatrice and helped her leave Starville...Or if they had said goodbye when Trevor had his tragic moment...None of that would have led to the terrible, messy ending they found themselves in.They had so many chances to stop things from getting worse, but they just kept going until they were both almost ruined.…Zara was fast asleep, and Yosef had not left yet. He sat by her bed, quietly watching her.It was not until a breeze blew in, tickling his throat and making him cough quietly,

Chapter 540

Zara got up and passed by Charvi, who sincerely said, "Zara, you look beautiful. Congratulations on your wedding." Zara smiled faintly.As she descended the stairs, a procession of nine impeccably arranged luxury cars awaited, ready to celebrate the joyous occasion.Yosef did not invite Ethan or Macy to his wedding. Instead, his favorite uncle and aunt, who were close to him, were the ones to fetch the bride. Wilder was leading the line of cars, so he came along too.He was leaning on the car door when he saw Zara, supported by Charvi, coming down the stairs. He straightened up as she approached.Yosef's uncle and aunt greeted Zara with big smiles and a few friendly words before opening the car door for her.Zara caught Wilder's eye for just a second before she looked down and gracefully got into the car.Wilder popped his gum and called out, "It's the perfect time. Let's hit the road—"…The wedding was at a hotel. Yosef, looking sharp in his black suit, was getting lots of co
