The Doormat Wife’s Ultimate Glow-Up novel Chapter 102

Reese shot Zach a look but didn’t say a word. She stepped around him and started walking in the opposite direction.

Zach followed behind her in his SUV, one hand lazily on the wheel. “Well? Cat got your tongue?”

She stopped and turned to face him. “Is this your way of getting back at me for using Sebastian to get the necklace? If so, congratulations, I’ve paid the price.

“This is over. I don’t want anything else to do with you.”

“Over?” Zach let out a sharp laugh, like she’d just told the best joke he’d heard all week. He tapped the brake, parked, and then hopped out of the car.

“Reese, give me the necklace, and then it’s over.

“I already told you, Tara loves that necklace. She’s planning to wear it at our wedding.

“If you give it back now, I might go easy on you.”

Reese’s eyes flashed with anger. “You said if I paid ten million, the necklace was mine.

“And you said Sebastian gave you a cut just to get his hands on it. I’ve already paid my price, too.”

“Not even close,” Zach said, his face darkening. “If you want that necklace, you’re going to have to play by my rules.”

He grabbed her wrist, his grip so tight she thought he might actually break something. “Let’s go. Get in the car. I’m taking you somewhere.”

Reese tried to twist free, her wrist aching. “Let go of me!”

But she was no match for him. He shoved her into the passenger seat, slammed the door, and locked it with a click.

The engine roared as Zach hit the gas, tires squealing against the pavement.

“You can still hand over the necklace,” he said, eyes forward, voice cold and unyielding.

Reese turned away, watching the city streak by through rain-speckled glass. Her voice was barely steady. “That’s not going to happen.”
