Chapter 275 For You

Nicole was startled by the sudden kiss, and she opened her eyes wide to look at the man before her.

At that point, Zachary had lost his gentle demeanor and became domineering.

He held Nicole’s head in his hands as he pinned her and kissed her.

Nicole was breathless being kissed by Zachary. This was the first time he had kissed her after pursuing her for so long.

Nicole placed her hands on Zachary’s chest to push him away. However, a female was no match for a male in terms of strength. In the end, she couldn’t push him away despite how hard she tried.

After kissing her for a long time, Zachary finally let go of her. Then, he stared at Nicole deeply, his gaze filled with affection.

Nicole touched her lips.

Zachary has always been gentle. Although he pursued me for a long time, he never forced me. What happened?

Nicole took a few steps back to keep a distance from Zachary. Clenching her fists, she growled, “Zachary Yates, what are you doing?!”

Facing Nicole’s question, Zachary was rather emotional. He took a step forward and grabbed her arms, a gleam flashing through his eyes.

“Nicole, I like you. I have always liked you.”Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Facing Zachary’s sudden confession, Nicole was confused and she pursed her lips. Looking at his emotional demeanor, she could not help but soften her tone as she murmured, “Zach, please calm down. Don’t be emotional.”

However, Zachary couldn’t calm down. When he was abroad, he heard the news that Hayden was Colton’s son.

Zachary was afraid that Nicole would be taken away by Colton.

Looking at Nicole’s expression, he forcefully suppressed the panic in his heart. Then, he smiled helplessly and released Nicole.

“I’m sorry, Nicole. I was too emotional,” he mumbled, guilt lacing his voice.

Nicole knew Zachary must have heard some news to act like this.

“Zach, you don’t look well. Why don’t you rest first?” she said softly.

Zachary never told Nicole what was going on, she didn’t know what had happened to him.

When Zachary looked at Nicole, he felt his throat tighten. He had a lot to say, but his mind was a mess.

After a long time, he nodded. “Okay. Nicole, let’s have a good talk tomorrow.”

“Alright. Please rest now. I’m always here,” Nicole said gently.

Zachary closed his eyes, and he dragged his tired body and turned to leave.

After Zachary left, Whitley came out from a corner. She saw the two when she went downstairs. However, she avoided them because Zachary was there, and she did not come out till now.

She was shocked. To her, Zachary was always a gentle person. Although he had a crush on Nicole, he never acted on it. This time, he seemed to be emotional.

“Miss Nicole?” Whitney called in a low voice.

Nicole opened her eyes and turned her head. As she looked at Whitney, she sighed slightly. “Did you see it all?”

Whitney nodded. She touched her nose in embarrassment. Looking at the expression on Nicole’s face, Whitney felt she needed to explain.

She looked at Nicole and said, “Miss Nicole, truth is, President Yates being tired these days is all because of you.”

Nicole frowned and looked up at Whitney. The former’s gaze flashed with puzzlement.

Whitney felt it was better to clarify it, as it wasn’t a good idea to keep Nicole from the truth.

Hence, she explained, “President Yates’ father wants to kick you out of F&M Apparel, so he bought many of the company’s shares. You can take full control of a company if you hold more than a certain percentage of the shares. President Yates is afraid that you will be kicked out of F&M Apparel, so he returned abroad and has been busy with it. He is against his father. It’s all for you, Miss Nicole!”
