Lady Warrior's Warth on Divorce Day novel Chapter 73

Chapter 73

Zoya paused. “You don’t want to be Oscar’s younger brother?”

Harvey slightly lowered his eyelids. “I only wanted to be treated like a younger brother by you.”

Zoya laughed softly, but didn’t push the issue. “Alright then, if you don’t want to be, you don’t have to.”

“And you? Have you always just seen me as your younger brother?” he asked, after a moment’s hesitation.

Zoya looked at him, who had shed his youthful naivety. “Not just a younger brother, but also my comrade.”

Even now, though both had retired from service, in her heart, they remained comrades-in-arms.

Harvey’s eyes flickered slightly as he thought, ‘Comrade and a younger brother are what she thinks of me.

‘What about Wren? What do you think of him?” he couldn’t help but ask.

Wren?” Zoya asked, “Why bring him up?”

‘I just wanted to know how you see him,” Harvey said.

‘He’s someone I need to protect right now,” Zoya replied.

Just that?”

“What else did you think it was?” Zoya said.

Harvey’s thin lips pressed together. Wren’s current attitude toward Zoya was clearly unusual, especially that day, when they pinky swore, it was as if he was looking at his crush.

Zoya, do you like Wren?” Harvey suddenly asked.

Zoya choked on her saliva. “What are you talking about?”

Harvey said with a serious expression, “In Ranard City, many women like Wren. After all, his face is very appealing to women, so I’m worried that you will also fall for him.

“Wren is not someone you should fall for. The Richmond family members have an abnormal kind of obsession deep down, or rather, they are all a bit crazy.”

Zoya thought of the jumbled scars on Wren’s back and his murmurs and groans in his nightmares.

For some reason, a strange feeling arose in her chest.

“Everyone develops different personalities due to different living environments. I don’t think he’s abnormal,” she said.

“Zoya, you haven’t heard the rumors about him. If I told you he once…”

Before Harvey finished speaking, Zoya interrupted him and said, “Rumors are not always credible. I’d rather believe what

I’ve seen than rumors!”

Harvey’s expression slightly changed. He wanted to say more but suddenly stopped, his gaze moving past Zoya to look

behind her.

Zoya also turned warily, only to see Wren standing not far away. She wondered how much of her conversation with Harvey

he had overheard.

Just then, the system called Zoya’s number.

Zoya stood up and walked towards the service counter, leaving the two men staring at each other.

“What a coincidence, Mr. Richmond. Are you also here for business?” Harvey asked as he approached Wren.

“Not a coincidence. I came specifically to find Zoe,” Wren said.

“Zoe?” Harvey frowned. “Who allowed you to call her that?”

“Of course, she allowed it,” Wren said calmly, “Also, I just learned that you enjoy gossiping behind people’s backs. It seems you are very familiar with the rumors about me.”

Harvey glared at him. “If I can make her be wary of you, then I don’t care about acting like a villain or speaking ill of you!”

“Are you so afraid she’ll fall for me?” Wren sneered.

“You-” Harvey’s anger surged, then he suddenly laughed, “How could such a noble and upright woman like her be interested in someone who hides in the shadows.

“Wren, others might not know about the dirty business of the Richmond family, but don’t forget, my mother is from the Hoyles family!”

The most renowned family of lawyers in Ranard City also knows many secrets of high society and prominent families

After all, lawyers naturally navigate various powerful circles and possess significant intelligence

Wren’s expression subtly changed, and his dark, eyes darkened. “So, what do you intend to tell her?”

Harvey pursed his lips. He had initially intended to inform Zoya about Wren’s dangerous nature and the various messy affairs of the Richmond family. However, since Zoya was unwilling to hear such rumors, he naturally stopped at that point

At this moment, however, he refused to be at a disadvantage in front of Wren. He then curled his lips and said, “Naturally, I’l tell her what you least want her to know! Wren, everyone in the Richmond family is insane. Do you truly believe Zoya would be attracted to a lunatic?”

A fierce glint flashed in Wren’s eyes, and he abruptly raised his hand, poised to grab Harvey’s neck

However, the next moment, he abruptly stopped

If he were to harm Harvey here, Zoya would likely turn against him immediately

Harvey was somewhat surprised by Wren’s halt. He had initially expected another confrontation there

Wren slowly spoke, “As you said, she is a woman of integrity. If you tell her rumors about the Richmond family, do you truly believe she would believe them? At that point, you would only have acted despitably!”

Two men faced each other.

Just then, Zoya finished the house transfer procedures and walked up to the two of them, asking, “What happened?” “Nothing. We just chatted,” Wren said, “Are you done with your task? I have something I need you to do with me.”

“Okay,” Zoya readily agreed. After all, she was his bodyguard now.

“Let’s go then,” When said.

Zoya turned to Harvey and said, “Sorry, I had originally planned to treat you to a meal after I finished my business.”

“It’s fine, I can always have a meal with you later,” Harvey said. As he parted ways with Zoya, he didn’t forget to give her a big hug.

Zoya naturally hugged him back.

This kind of hug was very common in the military.

While hugging Zoya, Harvey shot Wren a defiant glare.

Wren’s eyes darkened, his thin lips almost forming a straight line.

Afterward. Zoya and Wren got into the car together.

In the car, Zoya asked, “What do you need me to accompany you for?”

“There’s a dinner party tomorrow night, and I need you to accompany me,” he said.

She responded, “What about now?”

“First, we’ll go choose the gown you’ll wear tomorrow,” he said.

Zoya said, “Wearing a gown isn’t convenient for movement.”

“Then find a gown that’s suitable for movement,” Wren said.

She thought, ‘Fine, I guess. After all, he’s currently the one I need to protect. To some extent, he’s my employer.

Zoya remained silent, turning her head to look at the scene outside the car window.

Wren’s gaze fell on Zoya.

He didn’t expect to hear the conversation between Harvey and her at the real estate transaction center today.

When Harvey said that everyone in the Richmond family was abnormal, she didn’t think he was abnormal at all.

In fact, when Harvey wanted to tell her about the hidden rumors of the Richmond family, she said that the rumors were not credible.

As Harvey said, such a woman was too upright and pure. Compared to her, even if he appeared glamorous on the surface, he was like a monster hiding in the dark.

He knew that in many people’s eyes, he was a lunatic, and even if he wasn’t crazy now, he would be sooner or later. Suddenly, he asked, “Do you really not want to know what the rumors about the Richmond family are?”
