The Doormat Wife’s Ultimate Glow-Up novel Chapter 218

“Tara, I know exactly what’s going on. Reese marrying Sebastian was all part of your family’s scheme, wasn’t it?”

Tara’s face drained of color. She never expected Zach to throw it all out in the open like this.

“I—I didn’t know. It was my parents who set everything up. I swear, I didn’t know anything,” she stammered.

“You didn’t know?” Zach grabbed her chin, his grip so tight she cried out in pain. “You’re saying you didn’t know Sebastian was drugged? And what about the two million Reese gave you to pass to me? You didn’t know about that either?”

Tara’s eyes went wide with shock. She hadn’t thought Zach would find out about that.

Her lips quivered. “I—I wasn’t trying to hide anything from you. I just wanted so badly to be with you.

“Zach, maybe you don’t realize, but I’ve loved you since I was a teenager. Back then, you were with Reese, and all I could do was watch you from a distance.

“When Reese gave me that money, she was already married to Sebastian. I thought there was no way for you two anymore. That’s why I did what I did.

“I know I shouldn’t have donw that, Zach. But you can’t just forget everything we’ve been through, everything we felt for each other...”

“Enough.”

If she’d kept her mouth shut, maybe he could have let it go. But hearing her say all this just made Zach feel like a fool for all those years.

He let go of her. Tara staggered back, bumping into the front desk and holding her chin.

Zach stared at her, cold and unfeeling. “Whatever your family has done for me all these years, I’ll pay it back twice over. And there was the hurt you caused Reese. I’m not letting that slide as well.”

“No, Zach! Please, don’t do anything to my family!”

Tara panicked and grabbed his arm. “I’m begging you. Please, for the baby’s sake. Just don’t go after my family!”
