Chapter 246 Is She Swearing An Oath Finished

Wow, straightforwardness, that's quite an unusual strategy. They're treating Zendaya as if she's a scheming and pretentious b*tch, forcing her to make her stance clear and leaving her with no way out! Indeed, that was what Millie had in mind.

She firmly believed that Zendaya had feelings for Clifford. After all, this humble girl had been by Clifford's side for so long, willingly playing the role of a rebound. There was no way she didn't develop any feelings for him.

Yet, her question would have only deepened the rift between Zendaya and Clifford if Zendaya said she wasn't interested in him to save her face. If Zendaya admitted that she had intended to get back with Clifford, it would only prove that all her previous actions were nothing but a performance, a sign of cunningness. She would offend many people in one fell swoop, and Clifford wouldn't like such a woman.

Thus, what seemed like a nonsensical and even unreasonable question was actually the most effective way to deal with scheming b*tches,

But, the precondition is that Zendaya actually likes Clifford and truly wishes to return to his side.

Isabelle silently complained.

Upon hearing Millie's question, everyone's interest was instantly piqued.

After all, the rebound had been the woman who stayed by Clifford's side for the longest time. They also felt that Clifford still cared about Zendaya.

Initially, Clifford was upset due to Millie's thoughtless remarks. After all, he wanted to gradually push Zendaya to acknowledge her own feelings and submit to him, rather than directly pressuring her to respond.

If by chance she still held a grudge and said she didn't want to return to his side, wouldn't that just complicate things further?

After some thought, he was somewhat moved. Perhaps, in the end, Zendaya won't be able to resist her love for me, willingly abandon all her dignity, and risk offending everyone to admit that she wants to return to my side. That thought greatly satisfied his vanity. Clifford had already begun to imagine, how he would respond if Zendaya answered in such a way. He would definitely agree but wouldn't show her a pleasant expression. He couldn't let her be smug and complacent, he needed to keep her in check.

A smirk was playing at the corners of Clifford's lips. He couldn't help but add, "Millie, what nonsense are you spouting? It isn't easy to return to my side once you've left." He raised an eyebrow at Zendaya.

Meanwhile, Millie felt that Clifford didn't really care much about the rebound either.

At that moment, Zendaya was utterly frustrated.

What on earth is this? How did she even come up with such a question? I would've kept my distance had / known my idiot of an ex-boss was coming. How unlucky! Indeed, my ex-boss had always had a habit of making assumptions, presuming I was in love with him, even though I had repeatedly clarified otherwise. Yet, it was as if he couldn't comprehend the human language and refused to believe me, completely immersed in his own world. Earning money is anneth.

longer cared whether he believed me or not. Given the unexpected encounter, he might actually think I'm the one who can't let go. I felt very wrongly accused. Do all wealthy people tend to be so delusional? But my idol and her husband were both wonderful Zendaya unleashed a torrent of silent criticism and then responded with utmost seriousness, "I don't want

to!"

Everyone was taken aback.

Many were silently betting that Zendaya would respond with a no, but who could explain why her answer was so resounding and powerful?

Her tone was resolute as if she was about to swear an oath. It was solemn and dignified.

They wondered why she didn't hesitate and struggled to speak, her whole demeanor and expression should be screaming that she was lying before she finally admitted that she didn't want to.

Not just the bystanders, but even Clifford seemed to have his pride wounded by Zendaya's unwavering resolve.

Only then did Isabelle finally couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.

Clifford's face turned crimson in an instant. Realizing what was happening, he quickly stood up and admonished, "Zendaya, even in anger, one should know their limits."

Zendaya was practically rolling her eyes. "Mr. Clifford, I swear, I really had no intention of pestering you, let alone going back to you. Both you and the lady by your side can rest assured!"

If it weren't for the confidentiality clause in the agreement, I would have loved to throw it in their faces. What we had was evened out, so how on earth did they concoct the idea that I would pester him? Despite Zendaya's evident disgust, Clifford seemed oblivious and approached her, reaching out to take hold of her hand.

"Shut up and come with me!" With these words, he tried to pull her away like an overbearing CEO.

The harsh words from Zendaya had deeply hurt him. He admitted that he cared about her. Since she was stubborn and cared about her pride, he was willing to step back and let her preserve her pride. However, he couldn't afford to lose face, so he had to discuss it privately behind closed doors.

After he spent quite a while trying to pull her, he realized she wasn't b

budging.

Zendaya was almost in a half-crouched position, lowering her center of gravity and stubbornly holding. her ground, appearing as if she would rather die than leave with him.

Her expression made him look more like a human trafficker than an ex-boss.

Zendaya was often engaged in physical labor, so she was surprisingly strong. Clifford didn't expect his handsome and domineering actions would hit a snag, leaving them both in a stalemate. Onlookers stared in disbelief at the almost comical scene unfolding before them, unsure of how to react.

Millie, having just been abruptly released by Clifford, nearly tumbled off her chair in a most embarrassing fashion. Seeing Clifford, who she had been trying to get closer to reach out to another woman, she

instantly shot to her feet in anger and stepped forward to intervene. "Mr. Clifford, your date tonight is

mel"

"Movel" Clifford was already frustrated and breaking into a sweat from the exertion. His irritation only grew when he was obstructed again.

His words only served to fuel Millie's rising anger. She immediately attempted to pry their arms apart.

The competition formed by the three individuals made the scene even more unbelievable.

The captivating scene had everyone utterly engrossed, so much so that it even overshadowed the grand entrance of an important figure.

Millie immediately turned her attention to Zendaya. "I see what you're doing here, you b*tch. You thought you could win over Mr. Clifford by playing hard to get. Let me tell you, don't think for a second that it will work. You're just a rebound, nothing more. Do you actually believe Mr. Clifford would fall for you? Stop daydreaming!"

Although everyone knew about the rebound, the blatant mention of it still caused Clifford to momentarily lose his composure.

His momentary distraction caused his grip to slacken, and Millie successfully wrenched the two apart with sheer force.

She then forcefully shoved Zendaya away.

Their position was quite close to the swimming pool.

With a shove, Zendaya instantly lost her balance and staggered backward a few steps.

Noticing that she was about to fall into the swimming pool, Isabelle immediately shouted, "Watch out!"

However, Zendaya had already lost her balance.

Roland was the most agile among them and immediately sprang into action, rushing to secure her. Although falling into the swimming pool wasn't particularly dangerous, she was wearing a uniform, which would undoubtedly be a hassle if it got wet. In the end, Roland didn't manage to hold onto her.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in everyone's field of vision.

Her skin was tanned, her body lines flowing gracefully. She wore a provocative-swimsuit, her lips a vibrant red. Her wavy hair swayed with her movements.

She quickly wrapped her arms around Zendaya's waist, halting her impending fall.

Due to the recoil, Zendaya almost found herself crashing into her savior's sexy front, completely. dumbfounded by the turn of events.

"Are you all right, Pretty?" A hearty voice rang out.

It was like a cliché scene from a drama where a knight in shining armor saved the damsel in distress. The expressions on everyone's faces seemed to freeze, after all, it wasn't a sight that everyone could
