Chapter 81 Love Triangle
"Of course. There''s even a saying that says ''It takes a decade to stay in a ship together, and a century
to..." She stopped her babbling just right before she said the words "to share a bed together" when she
saw the look of gloom and disdain in Le''s eyes. Thest second, she twisted her tongue and said,
"To share a house," instead. She wanted to talk about the fate of their friendship, but the topic was
clogged in her throat.
It would have been dangerous to talk of such things, and would probably start a fierce cat fight between
her and Le.
Zac had a nk expression throughout the event, but when he heard this, a subtle smile appeared on
his face. The thought of him still being the only man who had been in the same bed as her, relieved a

lot of the sadness he had been feeling the whole week.
When he realized he was slipping and acting strange, he quickly restrained his mouth and acted
somewhat annoyed. There was a certain perplexity in that situation that aroused his emotions. He
couldn''t control himself any longer.
"Are you trying to look for attention?" he said, deliberately mocking her to cover up how he was feeling.
He didn''t want Essie to notice his soft spot for her.
''Seriously? Who cares?
I have hundreds of thousands of followers in my social media ounts. I don''t need your attention.
Your attention is thest thing on my mind,''
Essie thought silently and frowned. "Confidence is a good quality. But you know it''s dangerous when it
reaches a point of narcissism. Maybe you should get that checked," she bluntly said. The words just
flowed through her mind with utter abhorrence.
Watching the exchange as she stood next to them, Le inhaled deeply and released a sigh.
She had to admit that Essie really had guts and waspletely fearless. Essie was probably the only
woman who would ever dare confront Zac, especially mock him in front of everyone.
Le could never challenge Zac, she wasn''t dauntless enough to face a man with that much power. A
cold nce from him would leave her shuddering in fear.
However, when she took a look at Zac, there were no signs of disdain or anger. Rather there was a
warmth seeping through his body. In reality, he missed bickering and ying with her. Whenever they
would get into a fight, she would pout and re at him with her beautiful eyes, and if not she would
start acting cute or y dead. Being away from her the past few days began to get into his skin.
Whenever he couldn''t hear her noise, or her voice, it left the air feeling empty and lonely.
"Mr. Hanson has arrived," a man from the middle of the room suddenly announced.
Everyone turned to face towards the entrance of the ceremony. When Essie heard this, she quickly
turned her head with eyes that glimmered with excitement.
Zac found the light to be particrly dazzling. After having a blissful moment with Essie, his eyes were
quickly overcast with a mncholic annoyance.
When Essie saw Hanson''s tall and handsome figure, she instantly walked towards him casually.
Hanson''s nce was fixed towards her as well.
Her vibrant nature was like a clean lotus, both pure and beautiful. In a ce that was filled with
beautiful models and stars, her presence was one that could not be ignored.
In his mind, Hanson wanted to run after her desperately, but his feet felt like they were tied and he
couldn''t move an inch towards her.
''If you don''t want me to die, you better promise me to publicly break up with her!'' Florey''s words
repeated in his mind, over and over, haunting him.
His face started to twitch violently as an unbearable pain nagged through his skin. He was put in a
situation that tore him into pieces.
While he was tormented by his conflicting situation, Essie walked towards him. "Hanson." She had a
gentle sweet smile on her face.
He forged a smile, but it quickly disappeared before it even took ce. A smile that was quickly blown
away by a cold wind.
She failed to notice his indifference, as she thought that it was because of all the reporters around him.
When she saw a reportere up to interview him, she thought it would be wise to step aside for a
moment.
Just when Hanson was about to turn his back and leave, he suddenly felt someone touch his arm from
behind.
He assumed it was Essie, but the moment he turned his head, he saw thest person on earth that he
wanted to see.
"Sunny, aren''t you supposed to be in France?" he said with widened eyes and a face that was
"Your mother called and asked me toe back immediately. I couldn''t find it in myself to refuse," she
said with a smile that shone brightly. Florey had told her in the call that the marriage date had already
been set, and would be announced to all on this day. Sunny excitedly rushed toe back for his
husband.
When Essie saw Sunny enter the room, she instantly cowered and hid in a corner. She was simply
overwhelmed had no idea why she was even hiding, as she knew herself that she wasn''t a mistress.
Le watched this whole situation from afar and sneered, "Miss Essie seems to be quite submissive in
this love triangle of theirs."
Not a single word escaped Zac''s mouth. His eyes were like a bottomless pit,pletely cold and
hollow.
Florey suddenly entered the hall on a wheelchair being pushed around by nurses.
The reality was that, she was not sick at all, in fact she was still very strong. She just had to pretend to
be ill to save his son from the treacherous woman. She had always known that his son had a filial piety
and would never let his mother down. It was the one thing she used on him to get what she wanted.
When she saw Essie''s name in the list of guests for the opening ceremony, she instantly came up with
a n to make this woman finally give up her rtionship with Hanson. This time, she had to put an
end to all of it.
