    Chapter 1021 That Did Not Count


    Evangeline pointed at Johanna, wishing she could kill her with a single look. “She even imed you''d stay here with her in the future, and she


    would have your kid!”


    “Really?” Zephyr turned to Johanna, stroking her hair with his hand. “You love being with me so much?”


    Suppressing the repugnance within her, Johanna lowered her eyes and replied, “What can I do when you refuse to let me go? I only hope that


    I''ll slowly fall in love with you as we interact more.”


    That remark of hers was meant especially for Evangeline, for she wanted to antagonize thetter.


    “Ms. Evangeline pped me so hard that I can still feel my face stinging now.” Johanna lifted her hand and stroked her face, sounding all


    pitiful.


    “How dare you!” At the sight of Johanna looking all aggrieved, Evangeline flew into a rage.


    “I didn''t mind those two ps, but you shouldn''t have thrown me into the forest, Ms. Evangeline. I''m Osborn''s most beloved pet, after all.


    When he learned that I had gone missing, he went into the forest in search of me and almost lost his life in an ambush.” Johanna pressed her

    lips into a thin line.


    Her eyes shing, Evangeline hissed through gritted teeth, “You were the one who provoked me first!”


    Puzzlement was written clearly in Johanna''s eyes. “I was merely speaking the truth. Was that even considered a provocation? Is Osborn not


    staying with me and doting on me exclusively?”


    If it weren''t for the bodyguards holding Evangeline back, she truly wanted to rush forward and tear Johanna''s face into ribbons.


    Zephyr silently watched them both arguing with a smile tugging at his lips.


    Every so often, his gaze would fall on Johanna. She''s very intriguing indeed.


    “Osborn...” Johanna whined, suddenly tugging at Zephyr''s arm. “I don''t mind that I suffered two ps, but Ms. Evangeline almost got you


    killed.”


    “Yeah, those two ps of hers were really hard.” Zephyr held her chin and studied her dainty face. “Anne,” he called out without warning,


    summoning the housekeeper over. “p Evangeline twice on behalf of Kitty. Put some strength into it and leave marks that won''t subside


    even after three days.”


    “M-Mr. Zephyr...” Anne dropped to her knees with a thud, going as pale as a sheet.


    “Can''t I even get you executing my orders when you''re under my employ?” Twirling his finger around Johanna''s hair, Zephyr drawled


    nonchntly, “p her. Otherwise, I''ll have you thrown into Harondell Forest to be fed to the wild wolves in ten seconds. My men will only


    leave afterying eyes on your remains.”


    A shudder ran through Anne, and she prostrated herself before him. “Ms. Evangeline paid me, asking me to keep her abreast of the—”


    “I didn''t ask you that.” Zephyr grew a tad impatient.


    He''s not someone I can afford to offend, but the same can be said of Evangeline since she''s a member of another mafia family. Still, if I were


    to do as he ordered, I''d still live. If I were to go against his orders, no one would be able to find my remains tomorrow...


    Anne struggled up to her feet from the ground and walked over to Evangeline.


    “Don''t you dare!” Evangeline was born into the mafia, so she had always gotten whatever she wanted. Since young, it had only been her


    picking on others, and no one had ever dared to p her. Having bellowed that, she swung her gaze at Zephyr on the couch. “How could you


    treat me in such a manner when I''m your fiancée, Osborn?”


    “I could because you hurt my Kitty''s face.” Zephyr brushed his fingers across Johanna''s face with affection etched across his features.


    When Evangeline saw how he defended Johanna, rage and envy swamped her. “If you dare hit me, Osborn, my father will never let you off


    the hook!”


    “Have hime and confront me, then.” Zephyr sniggered. He then said to Anne, “You''ve got three seconds left.”


    His words were airy, but they felt like a knife pressing against Anne''s neck. Apologizing to Evangeline, she lifted her hand and pped the


    Zephyr narrowed his eyes a fraction. “It was too light, so that didn''t count.”


    Trembling all over, Anne screwed her eyes shut and pped Evangeline across the face hard. If it weren''t for the bodyguards holding her up,


    Evangeline would have been knocked to the ground by the blow.
