Chapter 127 Whos The Other Man (1/2)

Essie liked to sleep late, so she didn't get up until noon.

After having early lunch, they were about to go out and climb the mountain. At this moment, William called, ”that woman has hit the headlines again.”

”Essie met a strange man in a hotel and stayed there until midnight.”

In the photo, they hugged each other intimately.

Upon seeing the photo, Essie guessed that it was taken when she was about to open the door and go out. Fortunately, Hanson wasn't recognized. Otherwise, it would be more troublesome.

Zac was no longer in the mood to go climbing. His face was gloomy, like the horrible cloud before a heavy storm. When she said that her friend had come, she thought it was Eva, but it turned out to be a man.

There was only one man in the world who was able to entangle with her. The man's hair was in a mess and his face was covered with stubble. But Zac still recognized him after looking at him for a long time.

However, he didn't show any expression on his face. Instead, he just asked in a low voice, ”who is he?” He wanted her to speak it out herself.

She tried to make herself look calm, opened her mouth and greeted, ”Hanson.”

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, but he didn't say anything. He took out a bottle of ice water from the refrigerator and took a swig, as if trying to chill down his anger. ”I thought you were over,” he said. His voice sounded like the sea before the storm, surging slowly and solemnly.

She walked to the window and opened it so that the wind and sunshine could squeeze in. ”He came to find me. He didn't know where I was and was wandering around the Dragon City, looking for me all the time. He made himself very tired and weak.” She said it frankly. Her heart ached at the thought of him being drunk and in a mess.

”So, you are touched by his words. Do you want to come back to him?” He glared at her with anger. A touch of indescribable pain and disappointment quickly rose in his eyes. He frowned with anger burning between his eyebrows and his chest heaving heavily with a heavy breath.

She lowered her eyes which cast a sad shadow on her eyelids. ”I have told him about our marriage. And he is engaged now. I hope that before we get our freedom back, I don't want to have too much contact with him. Even though I will accept him again, I will wait for all things to be handled. After that, I just want a simple and calm love. ” She told him slowly and gently.

His heart stirred like waves. Mixed feelings surged in his heart, he didn't know whether he should be relieved or worried. Perhaps, the former was more. He knew that Hanson was much more important than him in her heart. Besides, he had given her such a troublesome task. She didn't leave him behind and went away with him, which was a relief for him.

”I'll deal with it. Don't answer the reporters.”

She nodded, feeling relieved secretly when she saw that he was neither angry at her nor blaming her. He seemed to be ready to turn over a new leaf.
