Chapter 805

“I’m going to marry you and make you my second wife. Are you scared?”

It seemed like Zach was in a good mood today.

Madelyn blurted out, “M-My dad just died not long ago, and you’re here thinking about marriage?

You’ve been in the Jent family for so many years; you should know that the family traditions prohibit us from having a wedding during the mourning period of three years.”

Madelyn tried to pull her hand away, but Zach did not allow that to happen. Instead, he held her hand even tighter and placed it on his thigh.

“I don’t have that much patience to wait.”

Madelyn could only remain silent and stopped talking to him.

However, she just could not stop herself from venting, “What benefit do you get from marrying me? I can’t have your baby, and that child is also fake. You’re only doing this on impulse, driven by your possessiveness. You can’t stand the idea of someone that you want becoming someone else’s. After some time, you’ll just throw me away like I’m a piece of trash.

“What makes you so sure? How do you know I’m not genuinely in love with you?”

“Because no one else understands you better than I do!” Madelyn said without hesitating. To avoid the tragedy from happening again, she gathered her courage to be honest with him, Cecilia told you that she was reborn and has lived two lifetimes, right?”

She stared into his gaze that darkened. Zach’s grip on her hand loosened when he heard Madelyn continuing in a serious tone, “At this point, I think I should just be honest with you about something. I don’t want to repeat the tragedy and be tormented by you two again.

“Zach, whether it’s in the past life or now, us being together won’t end well. All you’ll bring me is pain….

“We were married in my past life!

“We were married for eight years. However, you rarely come home and would never take me to your office. You said that I was an embarrassment and would only cause you trouble.

“You never remembered our wedding anniversary, and in eight years… you never stopped messing around with other women, including Cecilia.

“I…” Madelyn choked as she was about to continue. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she looked at Zach with a smile, “I really, really loved you very much! But every time, you disappointed me more and more. You even did it with my best friend in our bedroom. You knew that I was right outside the door, and you saw me…

Π “Do you know what you said to me in my past life? You told me to get lost! Did you know how much pain I was in at that very moment?

“You never cared about how I feel. In the third year of our marriage, I became pregnant with your child.

You were the one who personally sent me to the operation theater to have the child removed.

“It took me a very long time to finally recover from the pain of losing the child. After the child was gone, you never came home. Instead, you went on vacations and celebrated anniversaries with Cecilia… when you couldn’t even remember my birthday. You could gift her an eight- million-dollar mansion and a million-dollar luxury car. You even brought her back to our home.

“However, you’d only keep me imprisoned in your cage. Even when you came back, you just wanted to have sex with me. You’d never stay with me.

“Zach, don’t you understand it? I’ve lived two lifetimes just like Cecilia did. If all of this still doesn’t mean anything to you…

“I’ll tell you what happened in the last year of our marriage, the eighth year. Because you were not happy that I couldn’t have a child, you wanted to divorce me and kick me out of Ventropolis. You also told me to never come back.

“A few months after you kicked me out, I was diagnosed with cancer; I died in the hospital. On the day I died, you and Cecilia appeared in front of everyone with a five-year-old child and announced your wedding date.

Madelyn tried her best to hold her tears back, but one streamed down her cheek anyway, “Us marrying again will only lead to the same tragedy and pain befalling me once more.

“Zach… I simply know you too well.”

Zach was a fickle man. Once he got bored of his scandal, he would kick her away.

The car stopped in front of Southern Haven Villas for some time.

Zach watched Madelyn’s receding back with his sharp and piercing gaze as she got out of the car. At that moment, He himself did not know what he was thinking.
