    Chapter 321 Can You Use Your Brain


    Harry heartily pped Zachary’s chest twice,ughing. “Lysander, are you, st realizing now what


    kind of guy your ex-boyfriend was? Your best buddy Zachary, the one who grew p with you, sure


    knows how to hide his light under a bushel! If it weren’t for the fact that he’s not as handsome as


    me, he probably would have taken the lead,”


    Lysander found it hard to describe what she was feeling at the moment.


    She was somewhat shocked, but not overly so.


    She had long felt that Zachary was a man she couldn’t quite understand.


    However, she couldn’t dwell on the details, nor could she dissect his words too much. All she knew


    before was that Zachary and Harry were close. Thus, she previously thought that the way he


    treated her was something he had learned from Harry.


    However, to her surprise, Zachary was the real mastermind behind the scenes.


    Moreover, the situation could surprisingly be traced back to high school, to the incident that affected


    Daphne’s entire life emotionally.


    Lysander stared at Zachary intensely. “I’ll ask you just once. Did you instigate him to do that to


    Daphne?”


    Zachary remained silent while Harry took a drag from his cigarette, his eyes hazy. With a frivolous


    smile, Harry said, “Lysander, sometimes I really wonder if you’re as dense as a block of wood. Back


    in high school, Zachary was clearly trying to win you over, both overtly and covertly, but you never


    noticed. Yet, when I used his tactics on Daphne, she fell for it instantly.”


    Lysander took a deep breath. “So, you two were colluding with each other?”


    “Not exactly, but he did give me an idea and lent me a hand, enabling me to secure a spot at A


    University sessfully.”


    Zachary’s hands, hanging by his side, subtly tightened.


    Lysander saw it, but she felt it was even more ironic. “You went to ensnare Daphne, presumably for


    i rmendation, but what’s the point of Zachary trying to get on my good side? He’s two grades


    abo


    us.”


    Harry shrugged. “Obviously, it was all for the Mathematical Competition slot. Are you stupid? He


    was in his senior year, so if he could win a prize in the Mathematical Competition, he’d get extra


    points for the college entrance exam! His grades in literature and Stounian weren’t that great.


    However, with the bonus from winning thepetition, he could reach the threshold for a top


    university, However, you…. Well, the school chose you to go to Apex City for thepetition. There


    was only one spot.”


    Lysander finally remembered.


    That was back when she was a freshman.


    Due to her natural talent in mathematics, from freshman to senior year, she represented the school


    in


    1/2


    variouspetitions on numerous asions.


    So, that’s how it is. Lysander lowered her head, letting out a soft chuckle. “I truly sorry, Zachary. I


    guess I was just born insensitive to love.”


    Originally, Zachary was all wound up. However, upon hearing those words, he suddenly rxed.


    “It’s oku You couldn’t help me in senior year, and it’s the same now.”


    “You couldn’t win me over in our senior year. What makes you think I would ept you now?”


    “Because you’re desperate to end your marriage with Josiah,” Zachary said. “There’s no point in


    denying it now that things havee this far. I knew that the moment you divorced Josiah, an


    opportunity had presented itself. But Lysander, I must admit, I didn’t expect you to figure it out so


    quickly.”


    “You don’t have to tter me. I know you had nothing to do with my abduction. It was all Harry’s


    doing.”

    Zachary chuckled. “As long as you know, that’s good enough for me.”


    Harry angrily stubbed out his cigarette. “You still trust him? He’s a cunning person! How can you


    believe him when he says it has nothing to do with him?”


    Lysander let out a small sigh. “Harry, can’t you use your head for once? You kidnapped me directly


    from the Everhart residence. Even ignoring Josiah, the Everhart family will definitely investigate my


    whereabouts. I’m not exactly small or unnoticeable, and the distance from the Everhart residence to


    the dock isn’t short. How many cameras do you think are along the way? How many witnesses


    would’ve seen us? Then, there’s the Everhart family’s housekeeper. Do you think that just because


    you’ve paid her off, she’ll stay quiet? Do you think the Everhart family couldn’t do the same to make


    her talk?”
