"Joke with you? Patricia, do you think I'm simply pulling your leg?" Zac growled in a low voice.
‘So he is being honest with me? But doesn't he like Lyndsy? Isn't he and Lyndsy in a relationship now?’
It was hard for Patricia to believe that those details were all lies.
Sneering, she whispered, "Zac, have you forgotten about your girlfriend? I thought you liked Lyndsy?
You told me this before!"
As soon as Patricia finished speaking, she gripped the phone more tightly.
If it wasn't for their agreement, she would have directly hung up on Zac already.
"Girlfriend? Who exactly are you saying is my girlfriend?"
Zac asked suspiciously.
He acted as if he had lost his memory, totally forgetting everything about Lyndsy. Upon hearing that,
Patricia was so angry that she gritted her teeth and took a deep breath.
She couldn't help but feel that Zac was playing another trick on her here.
"Mr.Reynolds, apparently, there isn't anything for us to talk about."
After that, she hurriedly hung up the phone.
If she had heard Zac's voice any longer, she would have gone crazy. Lily, noticing how angry Patricia
was, had remained as quiet as a mouse.
Casting a quick glance at Patricia, she whispered, "Miss Sampson..."
Hearing Lily's voice brought Patricia back to her senses.
Drawing a deep breath, she regained her composure.
Smiling sweetly at Lily, she uttered gently, "Lily, you can go back to work now."
Patricia was not in the mood to clarify the relationship between herself and Zac at all.
Besides, who would believe what she had to say since her reputation had been thoroughly damaged.
Even so, she didn't want the media to report such news about her and Zac.
She would have preferred it if they continued with the rumor that she was with a rich man than claiming
she had anything to do with Zac.
But having no ability to suppress the spread of the news, she would now remain entangled with Zac
even if she didn't want to.
‘Forget it.Just let it be.I don't care anymore!’ Meanwhile, Zac sat in his office in the Reynolds Group
building and happily hummed to himself.
When his secretary walked in, she was surprised to see Zac in such high spirits. She thought that such
behavior was uncommon for Zac.
Since Zac’s divorce to Patricia, he had been behaving abnormally.
Lately, he always seemed to be doing something mind-boggling! "Mr.Reynolds, the news regarding
your wife and yourself has made the headlines.Next..."
Before the secretary could finish her sentence, Zac slowly looked up and interrupted her.
"Continue to hype up the news!"
‘I want everyone to know who I've chosen to be my woman!’ Zac thought inwardly.
‘The news already hit the headlines, so does it need to be hyped up more than that?’ The secretary
couldn't help but feel morose. She wasn't used to Zac's unexpected behavior.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and get it done!" said Zac impatiently.
However, upon finishing his statement, he thought of something and quickly called his secretary back.
"Go with me to the Veyron Corp.!"
Zac stood up, straightened his suit, and was ready to set off.
It seemed like this was a matter of urgency.Hearing this, his secretary was too shocked to say
anything.
Looking suspiciously at Zac, she said, "Mr.Reynolds, right now is not an appropriate time for you to go
to the Veyron Corp..If you want to retrieve the contract, then I can go and get that for you."
Now that this matter between Zac and Patricia was in the limelight, his going to the Veyron Corp would
add fuel to the fire.
"I don't need your advice.Just mind your own business!"
Zac glared coldly at his secretary.
Immediately shutting up, the secretary obediently followed Zac's orders. It seemed that this would
make another headline story on the news.
Lyndsy bitterly tossed away her phone when she saw the photos of Patricia and Zac online.Heading
downstairs, she went in search of Yolanda.
"Mom, didn't you say that you would handle this matter for me? But hear this! Patricia and Zac are
together and are even going to remarry!"
As she spoke, Lyndsy angrily stamped her feet twice.The thought of Zac remarrying Patricia sent her
into a rage.
'If this proves true, then all my efforts would be in vain.' Hearing this, Yolanda calmly ate her fruits as if
she had expected this to happen.
Smiling at Lyndsy, she said, "My dear daughter, have you already forgotten what I said to you? Don't
worry about a thing.Just calm down."
"How can I calm down after seeing such news? I'm so anxious!"
As soon as she finished ranting, Lyndsy pushed away the fruit container on the table in a rage.
Her mother couldn't possibly eat fruit leisurely while she hadn't come up with any good ideas yet.
Seeing Lyndsy like this made Yolanda sigh and frown.
‘It seems I've spoiled my daughter too much.Now, she's even treating me in such a disrespectful
manner!Anyway, as long as my daughter is happy, I don't mind what she does.’
Yolanda waved Lyndsy over and said softly, "Come here.I have something to tell you."
"No.If you don't handle this for me, I won't talk to you anymore!"
Lyndsy unhappily turned her face away so that she wouldn't have to look at her mother.
‘Although Yolanda is my mother, I have held a grudge against her for many years.If she was more
powerful, I wouldn't have had to suffer so much.Furthermore, Patricia is even able to declare that she is
a daughter of the Sampson family, when in fact, I am the only daughter of the family.Besides, my
mother doesn't seem to be able to help me deal with this matter regarding Zac.So, can I even trust her
anymore?’ Yolanda didn't notice the disdain in Lyndsy's eyes.
Believing her daughter was simply throwing a tantrum, she stood up and walked over to Lyndsy.
"My good girl, you can't just think so one-sidedly.You need to look at the whole picture!"
"The whole picture?"
Hearing that, Lyndsy looked up at Yolanda in confusion.
"Yes, the whole picture."
Yolanda then bent over and whispered something into Lyndsy's ear.Suddenly, Lyndsy's eyes widened
in surprise.
Full of hope once again, she excitedly exclaimed, "Mom, you should do that as soon as possible!"
Yolanda patted the back of Lyndsy's hand and responded, "We need to wait for the perfect moment to
strike."
An evil smile appeared on Yolanda's face.Lyndsy nodded her head in satisfaction.
With a devilish smile on her face, she thought, ‘Just you wait and see, Patricia.You will come to a sticky
end!’ Sitting in her office, Patricia couldn't help sneezing.
Rubbing her nose, she muttered, "Did I catch a cold?" As soon as she said this, a chill ran down her
spine.
Suddenly, she couldn't help but feel uneasy.
After a short while, Lily, wearing a mysterious smile, knocked before entering her office with a bunch of
bright pink roses in her hand.
"Miss Sampson, these flowers are for you."
Lily curiously glanced at Patricia, anxious to see her expression.
Patricia was stunned when she saw the pink roses in Lily's hand.
"Who sent me these roses?"
Patricia asked in a low voice, a trace of moroseness flashing across her eyes.
‘If Zac was the sender, then how could he know that I liked pink roses? I was married to him for so
long, yet he hadn't known what my hobbies and likes were back then.
And if Zac isn't the sender, then who could it be from?’ At that moment, Patricia felt like someone was
spying on her.
