Chapter 329 Shield Off The Bullet


    A mixed feeling of pain, despair and rage swept over, that swallowed Zac mercilessly and brutally.


    "Divorce Essie as soon as possible, so that they can be reunited." Lucy added. It was no difference to


    add fuel to fire.


    With a strong chest and a heavy gasp, Zac was like an injured beast struggling to die. "How cruel you


    are, Essie!" He gritted his teeth, turned around and staggered out.


    When she heard the footstep disappear, she fell to the ground helplessly. "Why did you lie to him?


    Why?"


    "Only in this way can he give uppletely and divorce you," Lucy said. Her hatred towards Mary was


    growing every day, and her son even made her hateful. She would never allow her daughter to be


    together with her son. As long as they could divorce, she would do anything.


    Raising her head again, Essie found that the woman in front of her was so strange. The woman''s eyes


    were filled with hatred, which was no longer the kind and lenient mother she knew. "I will divorce Zac,


    but I want a clean conscience. I can''t let him think that I''m a slut." She ran out crying. Her heart ached.


    The moment Zac walked out, her whole world seemed to copse.


    Zac was no longer in his office, vi, or Rong Mansion. His phone was turned off, so was all his contact


    information. Even William did not know where he was. As if he was disappeared from the universe.


    It seemed that her heart was bathing in the Arctic Ocean. There was no sunlight, no temperature, only


    darkness and coldness. Shey on the sofa and stared at the ceiling with empty and absent eyes. She


    could stay there all day without moving.


    "Sister, are you sick?" Holy walked up to her and touched her forehead with concern.


    "I''m fine." She weakly opened the corners of her mouth and wanted to smile at him, but the smile had


    not taken shape. She was in a good health, but she was sad, and could no longer smile.


    "Mother called when they were having dinner. Are you going to call her back?" Holy asked.


    She shook her head. Perhaps she asked about the divorce again. She didn''t want to talk about it at all.


    Now as long as she heard her mother''s voice, she seemed to be pressed by a heavy stone and she felt


    she could not breathe. She was so tired, so tired that she closed her eyes and didn''t want to open them


    again.


    "Sister, you haven''t eaten anything all day today. How about I ask Helen to cook some noodles for


    you?" Holy asked with concern.


    Noodles? Essie muttered in a trance again. She had unwittingly thought of the braised noodles cooked


    by Zac. Although he had never done anything in the kitchen before, it was his first time to cook it. He


    looked really awkward. He cut his finger and his arm got burnt from the hot oil.


    The more she thought about it, the more she smiled and then burst into tears.


    "Sister, don''t cry, don''t cry!" Holy was overwhelmed.


    "I''m fine, just a little sad." Essie started to sob. Her heart hurt as if thousands of ws were scratching


    it.


    "Is it because of brother Zac?" Holy stretched out his hand to wipe her tears and asked, "Did mother


    force you to divorce him?"


    Essie didn''t answer, and her eyes were full of gloom, without a glimmer of hope.


    "The person you love is brother Zac, not brother Hanson, right?" Holy asked again.


    Essie was shocked.


    She loved Zac?


    Did she love Zac?


    She repeated the question and felt a pang in her heart.


    She loved Zac! Yes, she loved Zac!


    She replied with certainty.


    Maybe she had fallen in love with him a long time ago. That was why she cared so much about his


    rtionship with Le, his attitude towards her and her position in his heart.


    But she didn''t realize it or dare to admit it.


    All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    She was too scared. She didn''t want to be the cannon fodder, nor did she want to be a substitute for


    Le, neither did she want to fall into the fire and burn herself to death. So she closed the heart and


    forced him out.


    But now, he misunderstood her and didn''t want to talk to her any more. What should she do? What


    should she do?


    She felt terrible and confused, as time passed by.


    A weekter, the phone that she hadn''t thought of for a long time suddenly came in with a text


    message.


    She took it out and found it was Zac''s message. It read, "See you in the Royal Tea Restaurant at three


    o''clock." The short message rejoined the hope of her quiet and desperate heart. He was back. Finally


    he was back!


    She ran out of the office ecstatically, jumped into the car and rushed to the Royal Tea Restaurant.


    Zac sat near the window. She saw him at a nce.


    She rushed into the tea restaurant at one breath and rushed to him. He looked much thinner than


    before. His face was pale and haggard.


    "You... When did youe back?"


    He was expressionless with only indifference in his eyes, as if she was a stranger. "I''m not here to talk


    about our old days." His tone was even colder, like a cold wind ofte winter.


    She knew that he was still angry. Today, she had decided to tell him everything about Mili and Dot.


    After taking a sip of tea, she pursed her lips and said, "In fact, Mili and Dot..."


    Before she could finish her words, a stack of documents were thrown towards her. She was dazzled by


    the content of the divorce agreement.


    "I have sighed on it. You handle the rest," he said indifferently.


    "Zac..." It was not easy for her to gain a glimmer of light, but she was kicked into the cold and dark sea


    again. Her throat was blocked by strong bitterness and she could not say a word.


    "From now on, we have nothing to do with each other. Take care of yourself." He stood up and walked


    out coldly. It seemed that he didn''t want to stay with her any longer.


    A teardrop fell down from her eyes and fell on the agreement in front of her. Then it fell down one drop


    after another, like a pearl with broken thread. His signature pen and ink melted in tears, bing


    blurred.


    Zayn didn''t leave the teahouse. Sitting in the car, through the window, through the floor to ceiling


    windows, he stared without blinking his eyes at her and her face which was now covered by tears.


    ''Essie Yi, isn''t this what you always want? I am let go of you. I am freeing you. You shall feel happy.


    Why are you crying?''


    He clenched the steering wheel, feeling a little confused.


    He didn''t know how he had spent this week. If William hadn''t found him, he might have died in extreme


    despair and pain.


    He didn''t let her go before because he loved her. But now, he gave up because he loved her.


    After a long while, Essie came out. Standing at the gate of the tea restaurant, she suddenly didn''t know


    where she should go. Without Zac, she was just like a little bird that lost its way home.


    She was frozen in ce, while Zac stared at her deeply.


    Suddenly, there was a sh of red dot between her eyebrows, out of nowhere, and she did not notice it


    at all. But Zac saw it clearly.


    "Essie, move away!" Zac pulled the door open and ran towards her like a hurricane.


    All of a sudden, a sound of gunshot came through. Though she didn''t know who was shooting at her,


    the only thing she knew was that a tall man protected her and brought her to the ground.


    "You... Are you okay?" Zac asked in a low and weak voice.


    She shook her head, "I thought you had gone."


    "Yes, I should have... I should have gone." He smiled bitterly, frowned, and then fell to the ground.


    "Zac, what''s wrong with you?" Essie screamed. When she moved her hands from his shoulder, she


    found that his arm was covered with blood.


    The blood was not hers, but his!


    He was shot!


    "Zac!" she screamed out and trembled to call the emergency number.


    The ambnce arrived soon.


    She sat beside him, holding his hands tightly. She was very scared. Very scared. Even if she was


    locked into a basement, she had never been as scared as she was now. She said, "Zac, wake up.


    Don''t scare me, okay?" She wept, rubbed his eyelids and kissed his hands. The killer was aimed at her.


    She should be the one lying here, but he took her shield to ward


    off the bullet for her. Why did he do that for her?


    Perhaps her voice woke him up. He slowly opened his eyes and said, "You little idiot, don''t cry." She


    had cried for a long time today, so he didn''t want to see her cry any more. He feebly covered her face


    with his hand, and wiped away her tears. But as soon as he wipe one drop of her tears, another drop


    fell down soon.


    "Don''t leave me. Freezing guy, don''t leave me," she sobbed as she said out of one breath. Her whole


    body was trembling. She was afraid of losing him. Now she finally understood that he was very


    important to her. Her heart and soul had already been given to him, and could never be taken back.


    His mouth twisted in a bitter smile as he said, "Don''t worry about me. If we get divorced, we will have


    nothing to do with each other... From now on, you should live happily with Hanson and forget


    everything between you and me... I will forget you..." His voice was getting lower and lower and finally


    disappeared.


    "Zac Rong!" Seeing that he closed his eyes and didn''t open them again, she felt that her heart was like


    being cut by a knife. It was so painful that she was almost suffocated. "Zac, Mili and Dot are your


    children, not Hanson''s. you haven''t seen them yet. You can''t be hurt. Do you hear me?" She cried.


    Suddenly, she thought of the divorce agreement in her bag, and she tore it into pieces. "We''re not


    getting divorced. I''m your wife, and I''ll be around you all my life. You can''t back out, nor leave me. Do


    you hear me? You can hear me, right?"


    Along the way, she kept talking and crying, trying to wake him up, but he had been in aa and


    never opened his eyes.
