Chapter 949

Zach said, “Cecilia is still useful to me. I can guarantee she won’t appear again in the future…”

Madelyn lifted her head to meet his cold gaze, “That’s none of my business! Whether you send her abroad or bring her back, it’s none of my business. I’ve already forgotten everything that happened today. It’s meaningless to bring it up now. That villa belongs to you. I was just staying there temporarily.

I’ll have Margaret remove my things from the villa tomorrow.”

Kevin stepped forward and frowned. His expression seemed to say she was not grateful.

He said, “Ms. Jent, it’s unavoidable for Mr. Jardin to attend social events. Cecilia is the Deputy CEO of Jardin Corporation. It was pre-planned for her to attend the event with Mr. Jardin. Mr. Jardin’s stomach hasn’t been well for a while. His stomach was just acting up last night. He hasn’t eaten since you left…”

“That’s enough!” Madelyn vigorously stood up and glared at him, “You got to where you are now because you’re capable. Those who died because of you were because they were unlucky! I don’t find it strange that women keep coming to you. Someone like you can’t change. You’ll accept anyone who comes to you.

“I didn’t mind that you drove me away. I left because I felt disgusted, especially being with someone like you!

“I know you came today to force me to go back! What else can you do besides threaten me?

“Zach, even if you’re the most powerful man, you can never compare to him.

“After a few years, people will forget the image you portray to the world. But I’ll never forget that you’re a complete bastard!”

Zach responded, “Are you done scolding me? If you’re not satisfied, do it in a way that satisfies you, and after you’re done venting your anger, come home with me.”

Madelyn thought, ‘I should’ve known that I could never escape and that I’d be brought back after I got driven out.’

There was a fruit platter on the guest table. Madelyn grabbed the fruit knife on the table and angrily held it to his neck.

Zach did not dodge. He did not even blink.

Upon noticing the situation in the room, Clement, who was outside, wanted to push the door to go in.

Dorian immediately pulled him back, “We can’t meddle in their affairs. Let’s just wait and see!”

Madelyn’s hand was trembling. The sharp edge of the knife made a small cut on Zach’s neck.

She said, “Zach, I’ll really kill you!”

“I’m now giving you the chance to do it. If I’m not dead, does it mean you’re satisfied?” Zach stood up.

Blood dripped onto his black shirt.

If Madelyn really cut him, Zach would surely die.

He knew she did not dare to kill him.

He said, “I can tolerate that Ethan still has a place in your heart, but from now on, you’re not allowed to mention him in front of me. How can a dead person compete with me?!”

Madelyn responded, “You’re not worthy of mentioning his name!”

Zach stared at her sharply. He even took a step forward. The fruit knife in Madelyn’s hand had already cut through a layer on his neck. She trembled in fear. Zach held her hand as he said in a cold, intense voice, “Madelyn, I’m giving you the last chance to kill me.

“If you can’t do it, go back with me.

“I promise I won’t speak harshly to you again.

“As for the matter regarding Cecilia, after tonight, we’ll put an end to it, okay?”
