Eva stared at Jesse fiercely. Anger danced in her eyes.
"Don't look at me like that. That is what happened, isn't it? Zed wanted to get rid of you, so he came up with an excuse to break up with you. To be honest, if Zed really broke up with you because of me, then it means that his heart still belonged to you. However, you have seen that no matter what you do, Zed still doesn't pay any attention to you. As far as I know, he has never reconsidered getting back with you after your break-up. Face the truth without getting upset and then perhaps, you'll find the answers you seek."
Jesse said to Eva patiently.
Eva retorted angrily, "Jesse, don't bother to explain any more. My beliefs are different from yours. You have pretended to be Zed's so-called sister all these years just to be close to him. We both know how you really feel. Please remember that he is married now. So your situation is no better than mine. He doesn't love you either. What's worse, you also don't have any chance to be with him any more.
I know Zed doesn't love me, and I am okay with it. Look at you. You are still trying. That's pathetic. No matter how beautiful or excellent you think you may be, you have no choice but to watch your beloved Zed live a happy life with Jean, don't you? You are getting what you deserve! You are an evil woman, and you are being punished by the Gods for your sins."
After speaking her mind, Eva burst into laughter.
"Being punished by the Gods? Are you kidding? If the Gods really exist, then you are the one who should be punished. You are always saying how much you love Zed and how much you hope to get him back. You know Jean is not right for Zed. He is absolutely out of her league. And yet you cooperate with her to fight against me?"
Jesse censured Eva. Her expression hardened as she thought of Eva's duplicity.
Eva suddenly stopped laughing. She frowned at Jesse, "What are you saying? Jean and I are on the same side. So what? Are you envious of that? You are jealous and afraid of us now, aren't you?"
"Envious? Jealous? Afraid of you? Me? Oh, come on! Grow up, okay?" Jesse sneered and rolled her eyes.
"You are afraid that we will work together to expose you for what you really are. Then Zed will hate you and he will want to get rid of you." Eva had suffered enough humiliation from Jesse. It was her turn to criticize, and she was not inclined to be merciful.
"You are joking, right? What Zed really needs is to know about Jean's true colors. Now I understand why Jean was willing to let you come here. You forced her to do so. Last night, ther
“Who does she think she is? I won’t marry her even if she is the last woman on earth,” said Hiram Rong.
“Marry into a family with tens of billions of assets? How lucky I am! I won’t be so foolish as to break off the engagement. At worst, I can receive money as part of the divorce settlement,” said Rachel Ruan.
Their great-grandfathers made a pact about their engagement a hundred years ago...
ple will still talk about it. Once the gossip reaches Zed, do you think he will just ignore it?"
All of a sudden, Eva's face turned pale.
Although Eva had been with Zed for many years, she was not brave enough to face his anger.
"Are you going to tell Zed about it? Or are you cowardly enough to wait until he finds out and comes to question you? Imagine his reaction then. You'd better think about the consequences." Jesse played on Eva's weakness.
Eva looked very pale. She considered for a moment and then sighed, "What do you want from me? What are you going to do? Just tell me your purpose. I know you don't like me. You are not here to help me, are you?"
"Of course, not. As long as you agree to tell me the details, I will make you a deal. So, please think carefully before giving me your reply." Jesse wore a victorious grin.
She knew what Eva's weakness was. No matter how much Eva loved Zed, there was no way she could face his wrath. She had always been terrified of Zed when he became angry. And now, Jesse was going to use that to her advantage.
By pointing out that Zed would get angry with Eva, Jesse had been able to change Eva's mind about cooperating with Jean instead of with her.
Eva's eyes widened as she thought of facing Zed when he became angry. Then her eyes dulled as she thought of something else.
'Jean, Zed's anger is something that I can't bear.
I am sorry but it looks like I don't have a choice.
Once he learns of your secret, he will be angry with you. But Zed will also forgive you. After all, you are his wife.
But I am nobody to him.
If he knows what I've done, he will not spare me. And then, it will be impossible for me to see him any more, ' thought Eva.
