SWNOVELS Chapter 53: I Will Sue You!
Zac took two steps backward to avoid being touched by Lyndsy, but his eyes were locked onto Patricia.
He had stood up for her, yet she seemed ungrateful for his help.
Instead, a trace of disgust could be seen flitting behind her beautiful eyes.
Zac took offense after confirming that this was, in fact, her reaction to his help.
He gave up avoiding Lyndsy and allowed her to grab hold of his arm.
"No way will I like you,"he repeated while looking down at Patricia.
The first time he'd said this, those words were meant for Lyndsy, and he'd hoped Patricia understood his meaning behind them.
This time, however, those exact words were directed at Patricia instead.
By now, Patricia was disgusted with their affair.
Not only had this couple pestered her in the restaurant, but they had now come to her company to create trouble for her.
Annoyed, she said, "That's good! I don't want my sister constantly jealous of me!"
After a pause, she added coldly, "Also, this is the Veyron Corp..And you're both in my office.This isn't the best place for you to be
hashing out your personal affairs.Please leave so I can continue with my work."
Arm in arm with Zac, Lyndsy had a pleased expression on her face.
Glancing around the office space, which was roughly twenty square meters in size, Lyndsy remarked in disdain, "Let's not stay in
a small, cramped space like this any longer!"
Looking up at Zac, she said in a sweet voice, "Thank you for helping me, Zac.Let me invite you out to dinner to..."
Annoyed, Zac interrupted her and said, "Let's discuss this another day.I have something urgent that needs to be dealt with here."
Glimpsing at Patricia, he noticed she was hunched over and focused on the documents in her hand.
Evidently, she was paying no heed to him whatsoever.
"Zac, the Veyron Corp.is just a small company.There are no benefits to be gained here.But if you choose to cooperate with the
Sampson Group, I can ask my father to give you a huge discount.This can be mutually beneficial to both parties, so it's a win-win
situation for all! " said Lyndsy confidently.
This was the benefit of dating her.
She could persuade Sullivan to do such a thing for her when Patricia couldn't.
However, at that moment, Lyndsy didn't notice the coldness in Zac's eyes.
"You can leave now!"
Zac didn't want to waste any more time on Lyndsy.
Looking at his assistant coldly, he signaled for him to take Lyndsy away.
The office became quiet again after several minutes.
A moment ago, Patricia felt like she couldn't keep her composure, with Lyndsy and Zac disturbing her like that.
To top it off, one of them was too overbearing to ignore! Raising her head, she looked at Zac indifferently and said, "Zac, why are
you still here?"
Full of disgust, her voice made him, who was not in a good mood, feel even more depressed.
His face darkened with the tone she took.
"Patricia! Do you want to continue the cooperation between the Reynolds Group and the Veyron Corp.?"
"Yes,"
Patricia replied through clenched teeth.In order to strive for cooperation between the two companies, she had tried her best.To
the point where she had let Zac take advantage of her.So, how could she give up so easily now?
"Mr.Reynolds, I hope you will keep your word.The cooperation between our two companies has already been confirmed.If you
threaten me again in this manner, it may be interpreted as you wanting to break the contract at will.That's too..."
Patricia didn't need to finish her sentence as the underlying meaning was evident.
"Has the contract been signed? And has the cooperation been approved by the executives of the Reynolds Group?"
Zac made himself comfortable on the sofa while he waited for Patricia's response to his questions.
After a moment of silence, Patricia gritted her teeth and asked, "What do you want?"
As Zac expected, she was willing to compromise in order to secure the deal.
He curled his lips and said, "You can move back..."
"What? Move back where?"
Patricia blurted out subconsciously.
She doubted if she had heard him wrong or misunderstood what he'd said.
What does he mean?
"I want you to move into the Oakleaf Villa," Zac uttered.
Patricia was too willful, so he had to keep watch on her in person.
"No!" Patricia refused instantly.
'We had been married for three years, and not once did he ask me to move into that villa.So, why would he want me to move into
it now that we've divorced?’ Suddenly, she trembled as a suspicion arose in her mind.
‘Did Zac already know that Kareem had come looking for me? It wasn't impossible for him to find this out.Zac has a lot of capable
subordinates.So, as long as he wants something, what couldn't he get?’ Patricia's face turned deathly pale.
She hadn't decided whether to sue Zac or not.
After all, she really didn't remember much of what happened that night.But she was certain she was forced to sleep with him.So
he wouldn't be wronged if he really was sued.
However, she didn't want to be forced to resort to lawsuit against him.
"Are you so scared to live with me?" Zac said in a low, depressed voice.
"Or did you want to hook up with another man?" Patricia's face turned red with anger.
She had lived for more than twenty years, and she wasn't in a relationship with any other man, except for Zac.
"Who do you want to hook up with? Kareem?"
Patricia remained silent for a long time, so Zac took this as her admitting to her guilt.
Was this why she had agreed with Kareem's suggestion to sue him? With his hands crossed over his chest, Zac suddenly
clenched his fists tightly.
There was a faint sound of bones cracking.
"How can you be so naive? Kareem is taking advantage of you.Do you really think you are so beautiful that he would admit to
having a crush on you after you divorced me?"
: Patricia wore a bitter smile as the anger in her heart suddenly disappeared.
‘Why am I still so furious? Furthermore, we no longer have a relationship between us, and even if we hadn't divorced, Zac would
still not believe my side of the story.He always jumped to the wrong conclusions and never allowed me to explain myself.Now,
here he was, assuming I am having an affair with Kareem.’ The thought of this really irritated Patricia.
"Zac, we really don't have anything to do with each other again!"
Staring at him coldly, she said word by word, "If you keep pestering and slandering me, then don't blame me for being rude to
you!"
"Haha.Are you planning to sue me?"
There was a malicious look in Zac's dark eyes.
Caught unaware, Patricia gasped with surprise.
Sure enough, he knew of this matter.
‘So, has he approached me just to persuade me to give up the notion of suing him? He is already being generous by letting me
move into the Oakleaf Villa, which is on his private land!’ However, Patricia didn't care about that at all.
She clenched her fist, her manicured nails piercing into her palm.
She felt a sharp pain.
She tried her best to control her voice and said coldly, "Yes, I will sue you."
Looking at Zac's sharp eyes, she didn't feel scared anymore, and she became more and more composed.
"Even if you are powerful enough and suing you fails, your reputation will still be damaged by this event.And this can affect your
company, so it'll be worth my while to do this."
"Okay! Okay!"
After saying this, Zac stood up quickly and left.
In order to make a profit for Kareem, Patricia was even willing to destroy her own reputation.
She was really so foolish to do such a thing! Kareem was indeed as cunning and despicable as he thought.
He'd even succeeded in coaxing Patricia to deal with Zac for him! Zac would let Kareem know the price of angering him! After
Lyndsy returned to the Sampson family, she told Yolanda what happened in the Veyron Corp..
However, Yolanda poked her forehead in disappointment.
"Do you really think you can win Zac’s heart?"
Lyndsy nodded and responded, "Zac said that he wouldn't like Patricia."
She believed that he would only like her.
