Remarry My Ex-wife: Love Heals A Broken Heart

Chapter 56: I Don't Deserve You! 

She was left perplexed because Kareem wouldn't treat her this poorly even if the lawsuit had failed.

So now she was left wondering what he had meant by his last statement before hanging up on her.

He had given her the impression that this turn of events was solely her fault.

Frowning, she pursed her lips and stood up unconsciously.

She needed to see Kareem and learn precisely what had transpired and what led to his change in behavior.

When she arrived at their designated meeting spot, Kareem was taking a sip of his red wine.

There was a trace of annoyance on his gentle face.

He appeared to be in no mood to entertain her.

Casting a stern glance at him, Patricia asked, "What did you mean by what you said over the phone?"

She could care less about his attitude.

All she was interested in was finding out the facts.

Hearing her question, Kareem snorted and silently tossed out a few photos in her direction.

With a cold glint flashing in his eyes, he stared at Patricia and said, "Miss Su, it should be me asking you that question!"

Patricia was left speechless after taking a look at the person in those photos.

It was a scene of Zac during his stay at her home last night.

How were they able to photograph this? It took her a moment to calm her nerves and take a deep breath.

She understood what had happened.

Zac was as shrewd as ever! He had installed a pinhole camera in her house, and he used the images captured to mislead everyone into thinking that they were still in a relationship.

Proudly raising her beautiful face, she looked straight into Kareem’s cold eyes and declared, "This is Zac's tactic.It's a strategy he uses to prevent us from suing him.I didn't destroy your trust or break our agreement."

Since she hadn't done anything wrong, she didn't feel the need to bow her head or apologize to Kareem for how things had panned out.

Seeing the bold look in her eyes, Kareem coldly smiled and said, "Zac's lawyer presented the video of that night in the hotel.

The accusation was adjudged null and void by the court and the judge asserted that you seemed very willing at the time according to the video!"

Suddenly biting her lower lip, she glared at Kareem coldly and said in a low voice, "Clearly, there is no need for us to cooperate with each other anymore."

After saying that, she turned on her heels and quickly strode out of the room.

It didn't make sense for her to continue conversing with Kareem.

As much as Patricia hadn't pegged Kareem as the type of person one could rely on, she hadn't expected their cooperation to dissolve this quickly.

It was ironic the more she thought about it.

Naturally, she knew that she was only a pawn for Kareem to use.

So, if she was of no more use to him, he would have tossed her himself.

Now, at the thought of what Zac had done, she felt like she couldn't suppress her anger.

This time, she had lost a lot when Zac had taken advantage of her.

Unable to keep her animosity in check, she decided to confront Zac, the cause of her displeasure.

When she arrived at his company, not one employee came out to stop her.

On the contrary, Zac's secretary treated her respectfully and escorted her to Zac's office.

"Zac!!"

Seeing Zac with his head down, concentrating on his work, Patricia swiftly walked up to his desk.

Her fair hand fell heavily on the table, and she couldn't help but roar. She always gave others the cold shoulder, but that didn't mean she didn't have a temper of her own.

As the saying goes, ‘Even a rabbit may bite when cornered, ' and she was by no means a weak person.

"What have you come here for?"

Zac slowly raised his eyes.

A hint of complacency flashed through his calm eyes, and his sexy thin lips were slightly open.

He had anticipated that Patricia would come to him.

Seeing her frowning and throwing a fit made him think she was cute when she behaved like this.

A cheeky smile spread across his face.

But in Patricia's eyes, Zac was simply mocking her.

"Zac, what the hell do you want?"

Patricia was so angry that she stared at Zac, panting slightly and looking straight into his eyes.

She didn't hate Zac anymore, nor did she want to take revenge.

Now, all she wanted was for him to leave her alone, just as two parallel lines would never intersect.

Was this not possible? "It's simple, really.

Move to the Oakleaf Villa and live with me!"

announced Zac while staring at her intently. His request was very unmistakable.

As long as Patricia lived with him, he would suppress all the gossip floating around and clarify his relationship with Lyndsy.

And he had to watch her in person since she was so restless.

Besides, he couldn't let Kareem have the chance to take advantage of him using her again. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"Zac..." Patricia couldn't help but shout.

She glared at Zac with her beautiful eyes.

‘Why couldn't he listen to my request?’ Seeing the frustration on her face, Zac laughed and said gently,

"Have you made up your mind? Do you agree to my terms?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he arched his eyebrows ather.

Seeing this, Patricia took a deep breath and regained her usual sternness.

She looked at Zac indifferently and said in a low voice, "Mr.Reynolds, you're wrong about something.So that you don't misunderstand my intentions, I'm here to ask you not to badger me in the future.And I also need you to realize that we're a divorced couple!"

"You!"

Zac gasped angrily as his pleasant mood was dashed away.

At the mention of the word ‘divorce’, Zac felt inexplicably annoyed.

Raising her chin, she cast a cold glance at Zac and said firmly, "Mr.Reynolds, I'm a woman with a bad reputation.I don't deserve you!"

Hearing this, Zac glowered and squinted at her. He said icily, "Say that again!"

‘What does she mean by that!? How can she say that she doesn't deserve someone like myself? Or does she mean the reverse that I don’t deserve her? In this world, only I have the right to say whether I deserve her or not!’ "I have told you my piece."

After saying that bluntly, Patricia spun around and dashed for the door; she didn't want to stay with Zac, nor did she want to have anything to do with him again.

However, it never occurred to her that she would become the headline of another news report because of her sudden impulse visit to argue with Zac.

In just one afternoon, her reputation plummeted, and she became the other woman in Zac and Lyndsy's relationship.

Seeing the news, Patricia remained emotionless, but she couldn't help sneering at the headline.

She already had a bad reputation, so she didn't care about one or two more articles claiming this fact.

Turning off the web browser and throwing the phone aside, she devoted herself to her work.

As soon as Patricia became immersed in her work, Jayson nervously walked into her office.

"Jayson, have you forgotten your manners?"

Raising her head slowly, she glanced at Jayson coldly.

Since learning of his true identity, she had been on guard against him.

Not aware of the meaning in her eyes, Jayson hurriedly apologized and stated, "Miss Sampson, the CEO is asking you."

Speaking up now, Jayson wanted to follow up with a comment but stopped himself at the last minute.

Seeing this, Patricia smiled faintly, with a hint of sharpness flashing in her clear eyes.

She looked Jayson up and down and said, "What did you want to say?"

"It's about today's news," said Jayson after swallowing his nervousness.

Hearing this, Patricia glanced at Jayson casually and nodded her approval.

Then she slowly stood up and followed him to see the CEO.

From the moment she saw the news, she figured this would happen.

The cooperation between the Veyron Corp and the Reynolds Group hadn't been implemented yet.

Still, there were widespread rumors about her and Zac again and again, which was unfavorable to the collaboration between the two companies.

"Patricia, I'm not going to beat around the bush.I'll get to the point one time.I hope you can get the contract signed within two days," said the CEO in a firm tone.

On the one hand, he had confidence she could get the job done, but on the other hand, he was pressuring her to speed up the process.
