Chapter 81

After finally swallowing the food, Zoya said, “What did you just say?”

She seriously doubted if she had misheard.

“Don’t I make you want to pin me down?” Wren repeated earnestly.

Gilbert, who was standing by, widened his eyes in disbelief.

He thought, What is Mr. Richmond saying? Does Mr. Richmond want to be pinned down by Ms. Lucero?

It was the first time he knew that Wren had a preference for being pinned down.

Zoya blinked her eyes and thought, ‘Good, I haven’t misheard.

‘Eowyn has just mentioned on the phone earlier that some magazine had selected him as the man women most wanted to pin down.

‘Now, he is bringing up this topic. Could it be that…

“Did you eavesdrop on my morning call?” she asked, surprised.

“You guys talked so loudly. I was in the next room. It was hard not to hear,” Wren said.

Zoya muttered to herself, ‘Why did Eowyn have to be so loud?’

“Am I really so unattractive to you, unable to stir even a little desire?” Wren asked, staring at her.

Zoya looked at him and thought, ‘Strictly speaking, his appearance is handsome enough to be considered attractive, the type many women like, but-

She said, “You are very attractive, but I prefer someone with a humorous and lively personality.”

She deliberately described a preference opposite to Wren’s character, hoping to make the rejection less awkward for both of them.

Wren gently lowered his eyes. “I see.”

He thought, I am definitely not humorous and lively.

‘So, does that mean she likes Harvey?’

Zoya didn’t expect her casual remark to lead Wren to such a misunderstanding.

“Oh, right. I’m going to the Lucero family to visit Waldo today, so I probably can’t work as your bodyguard during the day,”

she said.

They had previously agreed that if she had personal matters, she could attend to them after informing him.

“Do you want me to give you a ride?” he asked.

“No, I’ll take a taxi,” she said.

“That works,” he said.

She quickly finished her breakfast and turned to leave. He watched her retreating figure until she disappeared from his sight.

“Tell me, how can I get closer to her?” Wren asked softly.

Gilbert, who was standing nearby, stiffened. “Ms. Lucero has just divorced, which could be why she’s like this.

“Perhaps if she spends more time with you, she’ll become closer to you.”

Gilbert now understood that Wreb was clearly serious about Zoya.

Wren pressed his thin lips together. Even though she had been with him most of these days, and sometimes she was right by his side, he still felt unable to truly get close to her.

“Do you think I’m the humorous and lively type?” Wren asked.

Gilbert was silent.

He thought, ‘Mr. Richmond has nothing to do with being humorous and lively!’

Wren gently lowered his gaze and thought, ‘Since I am not her type, perhaps it will be better to keep such people out of her sight…

Zoya arrived at the Lucero family mansion to see Waldo.

Waldo sat back on the sofa, his condition noticeably worse than it had been a few days ago.

“Waldo, how are you feeling?” Zoya asked with concern.

“Don’t worry, my body is still very tough,” Waldo said, a smile appearing on his face after seeing Zoya.

He added, “But you, my child, Laurence told me you don’t seem to be planning to join the Lucero Group.”

“Yes, I won’t stay in Marabotara for too long,” Zoya said.

Waldo sighed softly upon hearing this and thought, ‘Marabotara is too small. It isn’t a place that can tie her down.

“Then where will you go next?” Waldo asked.

“I will return to Ranard City. My friend has a company there, and I will join it. Also, I need to go back to the border to search for my brother, Zoya said, outlining her future plans.

“That’s good. Just don’t forget to come back and visit me in the future,” Waldo said.

“I definitely will,” Zoya replied.

“Also, are you and Wren serious?” Waldo suddenly asked.

Zoya was stunned, a little surprised that Waldo would ask such a question.

“I saw the trending topic about you and Wren. I just want to know if what’s on the trending topic is true,” Waldo asked.

Zoya replied, “Wren and I are only colleagues. Besides that, there’s no other connection!”

Waldo’s expression was a bit complex, but then he smiled. “That’s good. I heard you just got divorced before returning to

Marabotara.

“If you look for a partner in the future, you must choose carefully. Even if you are divorced, you still deserve any man you

want?

Zoya smiled faintly. “I’ll let fate decide on such matters. I currently have no intention of looking for a partner.”

“Yes, no rush. Waldo said, “If you truly like Wren in the future, it wouldn’t hurt to be together. There’s no need to mind Daphne. She and her family are simply full of themselves.”

Waldo knew that Wren had no romantic feelings for Daphne.

“We’ll discuss future matters when the time comes.” Zoya changed the subject and chatted with Waldo about other things.

After a while, seeing that Waldo was tired, Zoya said goodbye to him.

Just as she reached the entrance, she unexpectedly saw Nicolas and Jasmine getting out of a car.

The moment Jasmine saw Zoya, she frowned and asked, “Why are you here?”

“My surname is Lucero. Isn’t my reason for being here more valid than yours?” Zoya said, amused.

Jasmine’s expression changed, and she scoffed, “Zoya, do you think you can be arrogant now that you have Wren backing you up?

“You just got divorced and are already eager to jump into another man’s arms. You’re truly a flirt!”

“He’s single, and I’m single. Even if I am with Wren, so what? It’s still better than you, eagerly becoming a mistress before others divorce,” Zoya retorted.

“Who are you calling a mistress!” Jasmine said angrily.

Zoya said sarcastically, “Nicolas secretly gave you 15 million in jewelry during his marriage. Would he do that for you if you are not his mistress?

“The necklace you’re wearing is one of the pieces he gave you. When I return to Ranard City, I’ll find a lawyer, and then we’ll see if you can keep those jewels!”

Nicolas, who had been silent, finally spoke. “Zoya, I know I owe you, but you shouldn’t blame Jasmine for our divorce.

“I gave her these jewels because she saved my life. If you feel you need compensation, I will provide it for you.”

Zoya scoffed and thought, ‘She saved his life? Even now, Nicolas remains utterly convinced that Jasmine is his savior.

“Compensation, you say? Fine, Give me the necklace she’s wearing now!” Zoya said coldly.

Nicolas frowned. Jasmine retorted furiously, “Zoya, don’t get ahead of yourself. Do you really think Nicolas would take off my necklace for you?”

Before Zoya could respond, another voice suddenly rang out. “Zoya, if you find this woman’s jewelry displeasing, then simply take it off!”

Immediately, a hand forcibly yanked the necklace from Jasmine’s neck.
