A Beautiful Misunderstanding

Chapter 279 Kill You Kill Me Or Self-Injury (Part One)

"Which friend?" she asked.

"It's Miss Qin," the Secretary replied.

Leila? Suddenly, Essie frowned again, and without uttering a single word, she turned around and went upstairs. 'I'm going to have a surprise attack. Why does he and Leila lock themselves in the office?'

The door of the office was not locked. She pushed it open and saw that the man and woman inside were hugging and they looked intimate.

She just stood at the door, thinking that she shouldn't be surprised. They were meant to love each other, but they couldn't be together because of the opposition of their family. So they took her, a fool, as a substitute as the honorable future hostess of the Rong family.

But somehow she felt hurt as if she was cheated, tricked and insulted.

Her sudden appearance shocked Zac. He let go of her and asked, "Why are you doing here?"

"Sorry to interrupt you. You can go on!" Essie gritted her teeth again, slammed the door and ran outside.

"Essie--" Zac ran out like a fast wind and grabbed her in the corridor. "Listen to me, you misunderstood me."

"No need. I only believe what I see with my eyes." Essie flung his hands away with all her strength and said, "Zac, you major asshole! That's why you locked me in the villa. You don't want me to disturb you and your lover, do you? If you really have the ability, marry her. Don't always peep. You are not a coward, and you should not always hide yourself under the ground."

"Leila and I are just talking business. Nothing else." Zac explained with a clear and honest look in his eyes. Essie didn't believe a word, thinking that for the past seven days, he must stay with Leila every day, and even the office was their 'battlefield'. She was pissed off with her hair boiling.

"She is a jewelry designer. What business does she have with you?"

"She has already returned to the Qin group. This time she is working on the open project of the resort in City E."

"So you two are hugging each other to talk business?" The corners of her mouth lifted into a mocking smile. If she hadn't come in to disturb them, things would have turned completely different? What would they do next?

"She just fell down. I gave her a hand." Seeing that she didn't trust him at all, Zac was annoyed and helpless.

"What a coincidence. Keep making up the story." "Zac, I didn't expect that you would refuse to admit what you have done." Essie said in a tone as cold as ice.

"I did nothing!" Zac grabbed her shoulders abruptly and roared. Her doubt and accusation were like a knife piercing into his heart.

"Yes, it's my fault that I stumble in. You haven't had the time to do it yet. I'm the one who should be blamed for spoiling your things. You can go back and finish it. I'll get used to it. Anyway, it should not be the first time that you had done it."

Her sneering words made him at a loss, almost on the edge of madness. It turned out that her trust in him was completely zero. "I've already explained it to you. Believe it or not, I haven't settled with you about what happened in the hospital. I don't want to see you now. Go back to the villa!" After sayingPlease check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

that, he asked the bodyguards following behind to take her away, lest he could not suppress his anger that was about to burst out from his throat and hurt her.

"Zac, fine! You win!" She angrily shook her head and walked outside. She felt as if she had fallen into the bottom of the Arctic Ocean. Her body, from her inner organs to her limbs, were freezing to the bone.

It was not until they returned to the office that Zac remembered that Leila was still in there. "Brother Zac, are you all right?" She came over and asked hypocritically. In fact, she was happy to hear they quarrel.

"You go back first." Zac walked to the window and pushed it open. His mood was totally ruined.

"Zac." Leila hesitated for a moment and walked to his side, "Do you need me to explain to her?" she asked deliberately.

"Leila, I want to be alone for a while." There was an impatient look on Zac's face. It seemed that he didn't want to be disturbed again.

Leila lowered her head and went out in low spirits.

As soon as the door was closed, Zac thumped the wall with his fist. He hated this kind of mood that was out of control. More importantly, he hated that his emotions were influenced by her. For this muddled-headed fool, he had changed the record of his bottom line for several times. He was the one who initiated this Cat-and-Mouse game. He was supposed to be a cat. However, he turned into a mouse and was willing to be caught by this muddled-headed fool. Damn it!

Not long after Essie came back, she took action to revenge on the man. When the man received the call from his butler Ann, she was sitting on a twig.

The twig was about five meters high above the ground. The bodyguards had already made air cushions around the spot. Even if she jumped down, she would fall on the air cushions, the adult wouldn't die. But the innocent child was difficult to keep. Essie didn't allow them to get close to her. If they did, she would jump off from the twig. She didn't care about it at all. There could be a bastard in her belly. If it was gone, she would be free.

"Essie Yi, are you crazy? Come down now." Zac's face turned pale in panic. He was on the verge of breaking down.

"Go to accompany your first love. Leave me alone. The scenery here is beautiful. I want to breathe some fresh air." Essie giggled as she spoke, but her eyes were shedding tears. Obviously, what had happened in the office had given her another heavy blow. The heavy burden on her shoulder had been overloaded, and she was in danger of breaking down at any time.
