Zayn kept quiet. It was when Faye sat on his lap and began taking off snazzynovel.com clothes that snazzynovel.com grabbed snazzynovel.com hands and spoke darkly, “Enough!”
Faye ignored him, flinging his hands away. She pulled snazzynovel.com buttons loose in an instant. She gave up on herself completely, abandoning any care and regard for herself to the wind.
Zayn felt his heart ache worse than it had just now as snazzynovel.com watched snazzynovel.com in snazzynovel.com current state. It had suddenly dawned on him, snazzynovel.com didn’t love him, in fact, snazzynovel.com hated him. It hurt so badly…
‘Despair is the greatest sorrow.’ That was an accurate depiction of what Zayn was feeling right now.
“I’m sorry…” The words came out hoarsely from Zayn’s mouth.
Faye paused momentarily. Guilt crept up snazzynovel.com expression, though it flickered away promptly after. She resumed what snazzynovel.com had been doing. Despite snazzynovel.com hot figure, there was not an ounce of lust from Zayn because snazzynovel.com reaction only deepened the wound in his heart.
“You’re right. I impersonated Violet Vision’s chairman.” Zayn’s tone was somehow natural and calm when snazzynovel.com said that. His words no longer came out shaky, and snazzynovel.com wore a faint smile. It looked casual and light, like his pain had just been an act.
Faye was nonplussed as snazzynovel.com stared back at Zayn with a frown.
“Get up. You feel kinda heavy on me.” Zayn patted snazzynovel.com thigh.
Narrowing snazzynovel.com brows, snazzynovel.com questioned icily, “You finally admit it, huh, Zayn? Why aren’t you pretending anymore?”
Zayn shrugged, suddenly chuckling. “There’s no need for pretense. You saw right through me, so it’s no fun anymore.”
“Hmph!” Faye scoffed hard. For some reason, snazzynovel.com felt a little unsettled now instead.
Both of them were quiet for a moment before Faye confessed, “Zayn, I’m coming clean. I love the chairman. I will never love you, not in this lifetime at least. Since we’re married on paper, you can have my body but don’t even dream about having my heart.”
“Sure, I’m only after your body anyways. Why should I care about who you have in your heart?” Zayn’s smirk was devilish. As snazzynovel.com spoke, snazzynovel.com hooked a finger under snazzynovel.com chin. The usual meek and humble air in his gaze had vanished, replaced by an invasive aggressiveness. It was like snazzynovel.com was an entirely different person!
Faye had never seen such an attitude from Zayn before. It put snazzynovel.com on edge, it felt like snazzynovel.com saw right through her.
“What do you want?” Faye slapped his hand away.
Zayn chortled. “Why? Are you scared?”
Frustrated that snazzynovel.com was being read like an open book, Faye tipped snazzynovel.com chin and puffed out snazzynovel.com chest. She treated it like a game, and snazzynovel.com wanted nothing more than to win. She challenged Zayn, “Come on! Do your best!”
Keeping his stare on her, Zayn’s smile was enigmatic and captivating, but no one saw the crestfallen desolation and resignation that was burrowed deep in his eyes.
