Chapter 1662
Punished by His Love
Chapter 1662
Hector stammered. âD-Did...Tessa tell you about this?â
Zayn smiled lightly. âNo. Didnât you say that when you took in Tessaâs mother, she was only
eighteen, so you canât officially register to get married?â
âYes, yes, back then, it was because of this matter that was why I did not get married to that
woman, but we were in fact husband and wife.â
Zayn nodded. âI know.â He paused for a while. âIf thatâs the case, since she is Tessaâs mother
after all, see if you could ask her out if you happened to meet her? Let me have a chat with her.â
âZayn, you treat me too well,â Tessa said.
âYouâve already said it yourself. Iâm the future son-in -law of this family, of course, I have to bear
the responsibility of a future son-in-law,â Zayn replied.
The entire family laughed, they were delighted. Tessa was even more elated. She even
coquettishly leaned her head on Zaynâs shoulder in front of her father and grandmother.
However, there was something on Zaynâs mind. His instincts were not wrong. Back then, Hector
indeed treated his wife badly. Furthermore, the woman he met outside the Ford Group was not
as how Hector described her to be, engaging in dishonest work and selling her body for a living.
As for what was the twist in this, before Zayn could meet Tessaâs mother, naturally, he would not
say anything.
Zayn was still handling this matter with the thought of helping his girlfriend settle her problems.
At that moment, Zayn did not expect that the things that happened next would be way beyond
his expectations or control.
After Zayn left Tessaâs home, Tessaâs father and grandmother were extremely pleased with this
future son-in-law of theirs. Hector was feeling dejected, so much so he could not sleep the entire
night. On the other hand, Tessa was feeling extremely moved and warm, she thought to herself
that if she were to meet that woman again in the future. Yes, Tessa only addressed her mother
as that woman when she was thinking to herself. Tessa also thought that if she were to meet that
woman again in the future, she would get her boyfriend to help teach her a lesson! Then, let her
die in the end! That way, Tessa would not need to see her for the rest of her life.
However, Tessaâs wishes only came true for three days before reality ruined it. Ever since Zayn
made a trip to her house, Tessa and Zayn got even closer, she even actively expressed to Zayn
that she could be his woman. However, Zayn was too reserved and decent. He said that if he did
not propose to her and if there was no ring on her finger, he was determined not to touch her at
all. 1
Tessa was frustrated. âAre you just a restrained man?â
Zayn smiled gently. âSilly, if I, as your future husband, donât even have an ounce of self-control,
and itâs not as if I canât get any woman in South City, if I were to do that, the women I had all
these years would be uncountable. Do you want a philanderer as a husband?â
Tessa chuckled, âof course, not!â she paused for a while before saying, âokay, okay! Iâm just too
lustful, but I agree itâs better we listen to you. We will leave it for our first night as husband and
wife.â
Although both Tessa and Zayn did not consummate their relationship, they both got even closer
to each other. For the next consecutive three days, Zayn came to pick Tessa up after work.
One day, Zayn walked out of Ford Group with Tessa around his arm. A few of her colleagues
were teasing Tessa by the entrance.
âTessa, how lovely you are right now. â
âIâm envious that you could find such a handsome and rich husband.â
âTessa, I want a mature man like that. Could you introduce one to me?â
âWhat mature man, donât make it sound so terrible.â
âHey! You donât get it, itâs all the rage now to date mature men! Furthermore, a mature man is not
really an old man. Look at Director Zayn, he does look a little mature, right? He is only thirty-two
years old. Itâs when a man is at his most charming age! I want a mature man like that. I really
want one.â âTessa, introduce one to me please! â
