Regret H 732
Chapter 732
Michael almost impulsively revealed the truth.
But in the end, he held back.
Jane misunderstood him. It didn't matter if they weren't even friends.
As long as she could see what kind of person Zachary really was, she would understand his actions later.
"Okay, I'll do as you say, Jane. I'll leave now."
There was only a door between them, but the soundproofing on the top floor was quite good, and Zachary hadn't heard anything.
He just kept checking the time, feeling it was taking too long.
Just as he was about to knock, the door opened.
He saw Michael carrying a suitcase as he walked out.
Then Jane followed behind him.
"How was it?" Zachary took the suitcase from her hands, his voice soft.
Frank cocked his brows, then stepped away to find Charlotte, giving them some space.
Jane was about to speak when the door diagonally across from them opened.
Nina stood there, looking distressed, tears brimming in her eyes as she looked at Zachary. "Zachary, I feel so terrible..."
Zachary didn't move but still asked, "What's wrong?"
Nina seemed hesitant to speak, biting her lip and hesitating.
Jane took her suitcase back from Zachary and walked toward the end of the corridor.
Zachary immediately wanted to follow, but Nina collapsed at his feet.
He could only watch Jane walk further away until her figure disappeared into the room at the end of the
corridor.
Now there was no evidence pointing directly at Nina. Even if he had suspicions, he couldn't completely ignore her. "Roy."
Zachary called his subordinate to have him carry Nina back into the room.
But as Roy bent down, Nina clung to Zachary's leg, crying, "Zachary, it hurts so much..."
Zachary's gaze shifted slightly as he squatted down to ask, "Where does it hurt?"
She had cut her wrist, and he had pulled her back quickly. She shouldn't have sustained any serious injuries. Chapter 732Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
He couldn't think of anywhere else she could be in pain.
"I..." Nina's lips had turned pale, and she clutched Zachary's pant leg, yet she still didn't speak.
Zachary thought of something and instructed Roy, "Go find a female doctor."
Roy immediately left.
Zachary picked up Nina, and Frank happened to come out of Yasmin's room.
It was too late to conceal anything. Charlotte, who followed closely behind, had already seen.
"Don't get me wrong," Zachary explained. "After all, she's my mother's goddaughter."
The implication was clear: he couldn't just ignore her.
Charlotte frowned slightly and was about to speak when Frank said, "Don't you have any subordinates?"
Zachary remained silent for a few seconds before telling Charlotte, "Don't mention this to Jane, to avoid misunderstandings."
After saying that, he called over another subordinate and handed Nina to him.
However, Nina wrapped her arms around his neck, refusing to let go, appearing somewhat out of it as she kept repeating, "Zachary, it hurts..."
Zachary had no choice but to quickly walk into the room and set her down.
He couldn't continue holding her in the corridor. What if Jane came out and saw?
But once he laid her on the bed, she still wouldn't release him.
She opened her tear-filled eyes to look at him. "Zachary, it's that place.... It might have been last night, when
you..."
Seeing the look on Zachary's face change, she quickly explained nervously, "Zachary, I don't want you to be responsible, but I don't know who else I can talk to right now. You're the only person... It was my first time as well. I didn't know either..." Zachary pushed Nina's hand away. His voice was much colder. "Nina, my family has wronged you in the past, but don't blame me for being ruthless if you lie about such things."
Nina stood her ground.
