Rory nodded. "Okay."Inwardly, she was blowing a raspberry."From now on, you just have to tell me what you like, and I'll get it for you."Really? Could he even afford that?Still, it was late, and she yawned, looking sleepy. However, Zach would like for her to stay and was just wondering how he should go about it, when Linda suggested on her own. "Rory could stay the night here—how about that?""Okay!" Zach promptly nodded.Rory was really sleepy too and soon fell asleep once she got in bed.Zach sat by her bed, tucking her in and gently brushing his fingers over her hair.His love for her was all too obvious—he could not even bear to turn away from Rory's face.Linda sat on the bed, hugging him from the back while breathing into his ear, "Zach."Her voice could melt any heart, but Zach was not reacting.As such, she deftly reached under his shirt—she knew all too well what excited him.Zach's breathing turned heavy, but he held her hand and muttered under his breath, "

Finding Linda on the beach, Rory ran up to her excitedly, exclaiming, "Mommy! He sank!"She looked expectantly at Linda for her praise, having accomplished what Linda had told her to do.Satisfied, Linda pulled Rory into her arms, calmly kissing her little cheek while whispering softly, "Remember—no one must know about this. If anyone asks, just say you don't know anything. If they get pushy, start crying."If you can't do that, you'll lose me and your daddy."Rory could not help cringing and promptly hugged Linda, hiding her little face in Linda's bosom. "I don't know anything, Mommy.""Good girl."Linda patted Rory's head, her eyes cold as she looked upon the sapphire surface of the sea.It was Zach's own fault.Since he was so sincerely in love with her, she would have been content with just having him locked up behind bars to keep him from meddling in her affairs.But he refused to know his place, refusing to accept her accusations and even threatening her in turn.That p

Linda was really panicking—for now, she must leave with Henry before coming up with a plan.However, Henry was not moving, and his eyes remained fixed on Tina, wondering what she was up to.And seeing that, Linda trembled even more, hugging his waist and leveling him a pleading look. "Please, Henry, I'm begging you… Get me out of here! I really don't want to see that animal…"Tina smiled coolly at Linda then. "Oh, Linda, what are you so scared of?"Linda wheeled on her and snapped, "I'm scared of Zach! He might force himself on me again! It was you, wasn't it?! Because he failed the last time he tried, you're now having him try it again?""Who, me?" Tina's smile simply broadened and turned toward Zach.Zach could hardly hide the pain in his own eyes.How could he not, when the woman he loved so much was hurting him repeatedly?Looking Linda straight in the eye, he asked, "I forced myself on you, you say?"Linda did not even look at him and kept playing the victim, burying her

Linda kept crying, "I promise it won't ever happen again! As long as you stay away from Tina, I'll stay away from Zach! And once Grandma's mourning period is over, we'll get married!"Her words left Henry's heart skipping a beat, as he realized that when he saw the video of Linda getting intimate with Zach, he was only angry that she lied to him—and not that she had cheated on him.In fact, he did not feel jealous at all from seeing Linda willingly melt into another man's embrace.But if that were Tina… No, he did not even dare imagine that. Forget letting it happen—just the sight of Tina being near another man was unbearable.That was when he remembered what Yancy said about changing hearts, and Henry's eyes appeared troubled as he turned toward the sobbing Linda again."You're just satisfying your needs, you say?! You never loved me, you say?!"Zach's fingers clenched around his phone, as he had always believed that Linda was really in love with him.Even now, he forgave her

"Zach Foster!"Linda's eyes were wide with rage, not expecting Zach to go that far.He swore that he would never hurt her!"Linda Cook!!!"Henry suddenly bellowed.And it was the first time he had ever called her by her full name!Linda's lips trembled as she turned toward Henry, and she was shocked to see the doubt in his eyes."Henry…" she murmured, her tears raining to try and curry Henry's sympathy.Even so, he was just glaring icily at her, and she felt a chill creeping up from her toes, extending throughout her body.She knew very well that Henry was absolutely regretful after learning that he had the wrong idea about Tina since two years ago, and that his presumptions had led to him neglecting Sophie.He felt that he owed Sophie so much and could never make amends for her death, and it was a boulder that kept weighing down on him.Over the past two years, he had spent countless nights at that bastard's grave.And whenever he saw anything that reminded him of children
