Chapter 69 Calling him a plaster
Winona looked at him speechlessly, "We're getting a divorce, and you call the almost ex-husband to show support. Do you think I'm that stupid?"
The most important thing was that Zachary, as a heartless businessman, would never do anything for free. Even if he did, he would have to extract a pound of flesh from her.
She didn't want to add another debt to the three billion dollars.
Zachary drove the car out of the parking space, with a cigarette in his mouth. Hearing her words, he gave Winona a sideways smile that seemed not quite genuine, "Not calling me for support, but Matthew?"
Winona took a deep breath, knowing exactly what he couldn't get over.
"Zachary, our marriage was a transaction from the beginning. A transaction means pretending to be together and minding our own business privately. When the contract ends, we go our separate ways."
"So what?"
"So..." She lifted her eyes, a beautiful face displaying a defiant smile that quickly disappeared, the whole process was just as fast as a Sichuan opera face change, "What do you care who I ask for support? I didn't stop you when you went to please other women on your knees."
This sentence seemed to have stirred something in Zachary. His gaze at her became fierce, as if he wanted to tear her apart. Presumably, he felt that the word "knees" did not match his noble elegance.
"So you also want to please Matthew, that's why you didn't want to introduce Layla to him?"
When it came to Layla, Winona repeated the same words; "She isn't worthy of Matthew."
"Is it that she isn't worthy, or is it that you can't bear to?"
As they spoke, the car suddenly screeched to a halt. Zachary turned to look at her, a hint of mocking smile on his lips. Recalling the past, he coldly laughed and asked, "If it weren't for that watch, which made you mistake me for Matthew, would you have never slept with me?"
This time, Winona's gaze didn't waver, and she faced him directly as she answered, "Yes."
Back then, she and Zachary were practically strangers. They only had a few brief encounters because of Matthew's connection. With such a distant relationship, she would never have approached him, let alone sleep with him, no matter how desperate she was.
Besides, someone like Zachary, with his status and position, wouldn't be easily manipulated by others, right?
That night, she learned that Matthew was drinking at a bar and wanted to ask him about the arrangement for their marriage. Even though they had talked about it that morning, she couldn't wait any longer.
Those ruthless debt collectors could take her away and sell her abroad for money at any moment.
So Winona asked the bartender for a favor; to bring Matthew a drink and guide him to the room she had prepared...
But since it was her first time doing something like that, she had to drink to brace herself. Little did she know that she ended up getting drunk before he arrived.
Later, someone supported her, and in her daze, she saw the watch on their wrist, the one Matthew always wore.
His watch was a custom-made piece, the only one of its kind in the world, which led to what happened next.
"I clearly rejected you back then, so why did you..."
After she recognized that it was Zachary, she immediately admitted her mistake.
If it weren't for his forcefulness, none of it would have happened, and she wouldn't have become his wife!
She glared at Zachary, her eyes filled with intense hatred towards this man.
Zachary, however, deliberately teased, "Why, Winona? I guess you don't understand men. When something is handed to them on a silver platter, they won't refuse."
"Zachary, you..."
"Although I wasn't interested in you at that time, you lying beneath me, calling out another man's name, ignited my desire to conquer."
With those words, he suddenly leaned in and forcefully kissed her lips. The kiss was fierce and brutal, his strong hand firmly holding the back of her head, preventing her from escaping. It was as if he wanted to consume her whole!
Winona never expected him to suddenly kiss her, and she was stunned for a few seconds before she started pushing him away.
He had just smoked, and his breath had a strong smell of tobacco, causing Winona to gag, but she couldn't make a sound.
Instead, her struggle only made Zachary kiss her even more fiercely. In her panic, she raised her eyes and saw the unmasked desire in his pitch-black eyes...
The cramped space of the car seemed to be engulfed in a burst of flames, making her body feel weak from the heat.
Winona's heart turned ruthless, and she immediately opened her mouth to bite!
"Sss..."
Zachary froze and suddenly let go of her.
He wiped the wound on his lip with the back of his hand, exuding a sexy and ambiguous charm with every move.
The area where he rubbed against was tinged with a faint red, it was indeed bleeding.
On the other hand, Winona vigorously wiped her lips with a tissue, showing great disgust towards his behavior of kissing her without consent.
Since their marriage until now, they had never had a deep emotional connection as husband and wife, so Winona found this behavior particularly ridiculous!
"Zachary, why have you been following me? What exactly do you want?" she asked.
"Following you?" he scoffed.
"Your current behavior is one thing, being reluctant to divorce, but even when I go to work, you continue to harass me."
"Are you crazy or delusional? How dare you entertain such absurd thoughts," the man sneered disdainfully at her, licked his lip again, and continued, "After all, you are the wife I bought for three billion dollars, can't I pamper myself a bit?"
That three billion dollars was just the surface value; the Sullivan family owed much more money back then.
"Since we made a deal at the beginning, you should show advantages that others don't have, otherwise, I feel like the money was wasted," Winona said, knowing he wouldn't have anything good to say.
Sure enough, in the next second, Zachary said proudly, "For example, how to please me."
Winona's breath became a bit erratic, infuriating her.
She lowered her gaze... Seeing that the man didn't have any reaction to his own words, it was clear that either he was incapable or she simply couldn't arouse his interest in that department. He only said those words to humiliate her.
Winona was more inclined to think it was the latter, especially since she personally experienced whether Zachary was capable or not at Crest Manor, which left her with a sore waist.
Of course, it couldn't be ruled out that he had taken some kind of medication at the time.
At this moment, she raised her eyebrows and said each word clearly, "If I want to please someone, I might please a dog. At least a dog would wag its tail when it feels comfortable."
In an instant, the warmth in Zachary's eyes visibly cooled down, revealing a chilling intent to crush her bones and ashes. "Since you like dogs so much, I'll find one for you. You can make it wag its tail in front of me, alright?"
