Remarry My Ex-wife: Love Heals A Broken Heart

Chapter 65: Asking For Help 

Lily was filled with admiration for Patricia when she saw how she had dealt with Lyndsy.

In her eyes, Patricia became more and more extraordinary every time.Seeing the sparkle in Lily's eyes, Patricia walked over to her side.

As she was about to check on her injury, Lily stopped her.

"Miss Sampson, I'm fine, really.I'll apply some ointment to the affected area when I step out of your office."

Patricia didn't press her further on this matter.

After telling Lily to be careful in the future, she returned to her desk to complete her work.However, her nerves got the better of her.

In one morning, she'd been pestered by Zac, Kareem, and now Lyndsy.These interactions left her tired and morose.

Pressing her fingers to her temples, she couldn't help but think that lately, she couldn't seem to catch a break.

‘My only options now are cooperation or freedom!’ "Mother, didn't you say that you would find a way to deal with Patricia for me?"

Lyndsy had returned to the Sampson family enraged after meeting Patricia.

She had told Yolanda what had happened yesterday and was seeking her advice on how to exact revenge.

Today, however, she had gone to confront Patricia.

This led to her being driven out of her office in front of all Patricia's employees.

Humiliated, Lyndsy decided it was time to seek revenge.

"My dear daughter, I did tell you not to make trouble for her yet.Why didn't you listen to me?"

Casting a reproachful glance at Lyndsy, Yolanda tapped her daughter on the nose with her index finger, shaking her head in disappointment.

Lyndsy's actions today had messed up her plan.

"Why must I wait? Don't you know that Patricia is a schemer? If she becomes pregnant again, all my efforts will be in vain,"

Lyndsy uttered dramatically while furrowing her eyebrows.

Seeing her expression, Yolanda frowned.

She had every intention of helping Lyndsy, her beloved daughter.

She was willing to do anything, so long as it brought Lyndsy happiness.

Besides, she was more riled up now that she was aware of how Patricia had humiliated her precious daughter in public.

"My dear daughter, don't be angry.I know exactly how to help you vent your anger.I will make this little bitch disappear forever from our lives."

A devilish smile appeared on Yolanda's lips as she finished proclaiming this.

Lyndsy nodded with satisfaction, looking forward to what her mother had planned for Patricia.

She knew that her mother was powerful and resourceful and would definitely deal a heavy blow to Patricia.

‘How dare you treat me like this, Patricia? I'll teach you a lesson!’ she thought.

After speculating for the whole afternoon, Patricia finally decided to negotiate with Zac.

She hoped they could reach a conclusion that was beneficial to them both.

And for her, that would be winning over the cooperation with the Reynolds Group without having to move into the Oakleaf Villa.

She knew that she held high, unrealistic hopes, but she was determined to fight till the end to change Zac's mind.

Standing at the Reynolds Group company's entrance, Patricia took a deep breath to calm her nerves before entering the building.

"Miss Sampson, Mr.Reynolds has been expecting you for some time now."

Upon stepping into the building, she was greeted by Zac's secretary who was smiling at her respectfully, but gave the impression that she had been waiting on her arrival for quite some time.

Hearing this, Patricia frowned in confusion and looked blankly at the woman in front of her. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

If she remembered correctly, this was Zac's secretary.

‘Did Zac send his secretary to wait for me here? What is he up to? Has he already guessed that I would come looking for him? Or was this done for some other reason?’

"Miss Sampson, this way, please."

The secretary smiled politely and gestured for her to follow.

Patricia, returning to her senses, calmed herself down and followed the secretary into the company.

‘No matter what tricks Zac is going to play today, I will not shrink back.’

"You've finally shown up.I thought you were giving up!"

As soon as she set foot into his office, she heard Zac's cold voice.

His eyes were fixed on her triumphantly.

Seeing the complacent smile on Zac's face, Patricia knew what this look meant.

Patricia quickly made her way to the front of Zac's desk.

After casting him a cold glance, she said flatly, "Mr.Reynolds, today..."

Before she could say anything, Zac interrupted her."Patricia, is this the way you ask for help?"

Zac asked in a low voice as he played with the jade in his hand.

Patricia couldn't help but frown when she heard this.

From the moment she had decided to meet with Zac, she knew that she would have to beg him if she wanted this collaboration to work out.

She clenched her fists, causing her nails to cut into the flesh of her palm.

Instantly feeling the sharp pain made her come back to the reality.

Taking a deep breath, she looked into Zac's cold, black eyes.

"Mr.Reynolds..."

Zac cast a glance at her before throwing the contract towards her.

"Look at this!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zac held his chin with his slender fingers.

The look he gave her was one of a hunter sizing up their prey.

Following Zac's gaze, she noticed the signatories’ names on the contract.

Holding her breath, she gently bit her lower lip as a hint of anger flashed through her eyes.

‘Zac is definitely threatening me! He is showing me the contract between another company and Reynolds Group not to deter me, but to let me know that I have no other choice in the matter.

If I don't agree with his request, all my efforts will be in vain.

Damn it! Zac, you bastard!’ she thought in rage.

Noticing her long face, Zac smiled triumphantly.

Her coming here today had meant his victory.

"Zac! You are threatening me!" shouted Patricia, her eyes wide open.

She hated being threatened by other people.

Since the loss of her child due to Zac's threat, she had come to hate anyone who tried to threaten her to get their way.

With a playful smile on his face, Zac slowly looked into her angry eyes and whispered, "Yes, I am threatening you!

‘This is all her fault.I had given her so many opportunities before this, but she didn't cherish them at all! So, she left me no choice but to come up with such a strategy. Now that she was unwilling to listen to me and make a concession, I have to take strong measures.She had this coming to her!"

"Zac, you..." Her nails pierced into her flesh deeper.

But in her enraged state, she felt no pain.

Hearing her words, Zac chuckled.

He stared at her and said, "Patricia, you forced my hand."

As soon as he finished speaking, he flashed her a victorious smile.

Now that things had come to this, there was no turning back for Patricia.

Her options were to agree to or refuse his terms.

Patricia knew this very well.

Her original plan had been destroyed instantaneously.

Now, she could only follow along with Zac's plan.

Patricia dared not to say anything even though she was extremely furious for fear that she would make the situation worse.

Seeing her like this made Zac smile proudly.

He coughed and asked, "Patricia, have you made your decision?" She couldn't help biting her lower lip.

Her eyes were full of anger, and blue veins stood out on the back of her white hands.

‘Zac, you bastard!’ she thought bitterly.

Patricia gritted her teeth in frustration.

But what she really wanted to do was bite Zac and let him know that she would not be bullied by him so easily.

"It seems like you no longer want to cooperate with me," Zac remarked after glancing at Patricia.

Taking back the contract, he held his pen in his hand and pretended to sign it.

Seeing that, Patricia immediately rushed forward and covered the signature area.

Nervously, she said, "I agree," in a low voice.

Because of her shock, she didn't know what else to do.She just instinctively blurted out those two words.

But now that she had said that, there was no way she could take back her words.

She had just agreed to Zac's request, surprising even herself.
