The Heiress's Second Chance At Vengeance (Eliza) novel Chapter 393

Chapter 393 Unrepentant

Something felt off to her, but she couldn’t quite put her finger on what.

“By the way, someone came by to see you while we were out.”

“Who?”

“An old friend of yours. Zayden.”

The moment she heard his name, Eliza fell silent.

What reason did Zayden have to show up? Shouldn’t he be off playing happy couple with Tracy?

Meanwhile, outside the apartment building-

Zayden had already been standing there for over an hour.

The security guard at the gate finally couldn’t hold back and said, “Why don’t you wait inside, sir? Might still be a while before she comes back.”

In all his years working security, he’d never seen someone this stubborn.

Just standing there, unmoving, outside someone else’s door.

“No need. I’ll wait right here.”

Zayden’s voice was calm, like waiting here for over an hour was no big deal.

Seeing how determined he was, the guard didn’t press the issue.

All he could do was let Zayden keep waiting in silence.

Who even waited like this anymore?

Soon after, Eliza’s car finally pulled into the complex.

As they approached the entrance, she told the driver to stop. Then she rolled down the window and looked straight at Zayden standing by the gate.

“Mr. Holt. It’s late. What brings you here?”

“Naomi got arrested, didn’t she?”

Zayden had seen the news.

Naomi had been picked up by the police earlier that evening, charged with kidnapping.

“Yes.”

“You’re here to plead for her, aren’t you?” Eliza asked.

Zayden didn’t answer.

But just by the look on his face, Eliza could already tell–he had come to ask for Naomi. He just didn’t know

how to start.

“You’re asking the wrong person. I don’t make the call

With that, Eliza turned to her driver. “Drive”

As her car pulled away, Zayden still said nothing

on

He hadn’t even figured out how to ask her in the first place.

Because deep down, he knew he had no right to ask Eliza for anything

In the end, Zayden hailed a cab and headed straight to the police station.

The guard who had watched the whole thing play out was left scratching his head.

What the hell? That guy stood out here for over an hour, said one sentence, and then just lef

At the station-

Naomi had been waiting, expecting someone from the Hartwell family to come bail her out.

She waited a long time.

But no one came.

Until finally, a police officer opened the door to the interrogation room and said, “Naomi, someone’s here to see you.”

Hearing that, Naomi immediately assumed it was Nathaniel.

She barely had time to feel hopeful–only to see Zayden standing at the door.

The smile froze on her face.

“You? Why is it you?”

Her voice sharpened instantly.

She’d been so sure it would be Nathaniel, but instead it was Zayden.

Zayden said, “You kidnapped Eliza—”

“What, you came to humiliate me for Eliza’s sake now?”

Naomi let out a cold laugh. “Zayden, the one who hated her the most was you. And now here you are, trying to suck up to her by tearing me down? Don’t you think you’re pathetic?”

Zayden looked at the girl he’d grown up with and barely recognized her.
