Chapter 423 Only You Tonight


    Before the construction of the South Sea project was started, Essie and Zac went to C Ind to inspect


    the construction of the base on the ind.


    They didn''t take the same ne, but they arranged their schedule respectively. Zac arrived in the


    morning, while Essie arrived at noon, as if to avoid suspicion.


    Unlikest time when she came to Sea City, Essie was not as innocent and naive as she was before.


    This time, she had made full preparation, because she had no one to rely on. She could only rely on


    herself.


    The whole afternoon, except for two formic reports about business, Zac didn''t talk to her. In his


    eyes, she was a mere stranger.


    She tried to forced herself to adapt to his indifference and ignorance, but her heart did not listen to her


    orders. It kept twisting, twitching, and even wanted to go on strike, so that she fell to the ground and


    died directly.


    She was like an addict to drug. She was suffering from rehab and insomnia. She remembered thatst


    time when she broke up with Hanson, she was not so sad. She fought with the demon every day and


    almost didn''t think about Hanson at all.


    Why was she so sad this time? Even if she had Hanson by her side, it would not relieve her pain.

    After dinner, Essie wandered on the beach alone, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It was


    very quiet in the night, with only the howling of sea waves and the roar of sea wind by her ears.


    She climbed onto a reef and looked down at the surging waves beneath her feet. A wave came up and


    hit the rocks sshing. Her dress edge was wet, but she didn''t step back. Instead, she moved closer.


    A pair of big hands stretched out from darkness and grabbed her arms. "If you keep moving forward,


    you will fall down."


    There was a hint of warning in his low voice, but she was very familiar with his voice. Her eyes were


    suddenly wet, and the dark night helped to hide the emotions on her face.


    "Why are you here?" She asked in a low voice.


    "It''s just a shit ce. We haven''t set up the inte yet. What else can we do besides walking on the


    beach?" He said lightly. The base was still under construction, and the satellitework had not been


    "In fact, you don''t have toe here in person. You can send a vice general manager or a director,"


    She muttered, as if talking to herself.


    Zac''s beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly. He wouldn''t havee here if he hadn''t known that his


    stupid woman had toe in person.


    "Why do youe here in person? Is there no man in the Xu''s Group?" He asked in reply with a sneer.


    This ce was not suitable for women before it was finished.


    "This ind is the southernmost of our country. I want toe and have a look." She hemmed and


    hawed. In fact, she just wanted to leave Dragon City for a walk in a sparsely popted ce. But she


    didn''t expect that the enemy who had disturbed her also came.


    "You do have a brain of temple block. Don''t you know toe to see it after it is finished?" Zac


    snorted.


    "Yes, Essie is an idiot, and everyone despises her. Cathy is actually clever and easygoing." She stared


    at him with a sullen face. But as soon as she finished her words, she felt itughable. How ridiculous


    theparison was! After all, it was she who was the only one to be med?


    "Good. It''s good that you have a clear estimation of yourself. Ask Essie to get out of here as soon as


    possible and get my Cathy back." Zac snorted.


    "She can''te back. She left the Xu family when she was seven years old. She is doomed to never


    projected on the reef like thick ink.


    "Why?" His deep voice was like breathing through her hair, and a touch of sadness gradually appeared


    on her face. "Her family has been upied. Her fiance has a new girlfriend, and now he is married to


    this woman. All what she had in the past has been lost. What will she do back?"


    Zac''s mouth twitched. "If you choose to give up, then don''te back."


    "Yes, it''s good now." Then she sat down with her chin on her knees. What would she do if she wouldn''t


    give up. He had already married someone else. Would she be a mistress to ruin their marriage?


    Moreover, his mother was her enemy. How could she regard the thief as her mother-inw and hurt her


    mother''s heart?


    "Are you really going to marry Hanson?" He clenched his teeth, his dark eyes shining with anger. Her


    indifference andpromise almost drove him mad. He really wanted to squeeze into her brain and


    check what funny things there were? And what''s more, how small was her heart? Why did Hanson


    have a ce in it and could not amodate him anymore?


    Tears welled up in her eyes and she tried her best to control them. "The date of our wedding has been


    set. The next day after I am injected the antidote. Marriage is one of the most important things in life,


    which can''t be joked. " Her voice was very light, but with a bit of determination. Since she could no


    longer be with him, she had to n for her own life.


    "Do you love him so much?" Every cell of his body seemed to be twisting. He could no longer maintain


    the indifferent expression of indifference.


    She didn''t answer, but turned to look at the sea under the rock. The tide water rushed toward the reef


    and crashed into pieces, turning into countless white bubbles, falling back, and soon pouring back


    again and again endlessly.


    No, I love you, only you now!


    She said firmly and persistent in her heart. Her love was like the tide, endless, until the end of her life.


    But she wouldn''t tell him or let him know. Since he had never loved her, why should she bring disgrace


    on herself?


    "He treats me well. My mother likes him very much. We are all happy to marry him." She didn''t answer


    his question and seemed to avoid his question. Dissatisfied, he squatted down and grabbed her


    shoulder. "I''m asking you, do you really love him?" He wanted an answer that would put him in a


    desperate situation or that would never happen.


    She bit her lips and spit out a word with difficulty, "yes." Meanwhile, her tears fell down uncontrobly.


    Zac''s finger twitched, but the simplest word was like a soul killer needle piercing into his soul, making


    him feel that his soul had dissipated.


    Thick clouds covered the bright moon. It was almost invisible on the beach. He could not see the tears


    on her face, nor could she see his twisted face.


    He loosened his grip and took a step back to prevent himself from losing control and crushing her


    shoulder. "Very well, very well. My wishes to you." He stammered.


    "I wish you and Le happiness." Tears streamed down her face. It was too dark for him to see


    anything, so she just couldn''t help crying. But to her surprise, the thick clouds soon were blown away


    by the wind. The moonlight shined on her face, making her tears bright.


    He responded much faster than her. He put away all his emotions in an instant, leaving only a cold ice


    face. His deep and cold eyes were even deeper than the night, and there was a glimmer in them.


    The moment he saw her tears, the confusion that had dispersed in the past suddenly came back to


    him. "Why are you crying?" he asked. His throat was burned by the pain just now. He asked with a


    husky voice.


    "No, I didn''t. The sand got into my eyes." She quickly went to clean her face. Here was a beach, full of


    sand everywhere. This excuse should work, shouldn''t it?


    But he raised his thick eyebrows slightly. It seemed that he didn''t believe her at all. "Really?" He said


    slowly.


    "I... My eyes hurt. I''m going back. " She jumped off the rock and wanted to escape. He wouldn''t let her


    go. His heart was at the crucial moment of life and death. Her words could determine his life. If she


    didn''t make it clear, he would never let her go.


    "Don''t you love Hanson? Aren''t you going to marry him? Why are you still crying? You should smile. "


    He dragged her arm and said in an aggressive tone as if a judge were interrogating a criminal.


    She could not exin. She was flustered and felt she was about to copse. She swung her arms in an


    attempt to break free. However, the strength she had exerted was far from enough to tickle her.


    "I''m tired. I''ve been on the ne for hours. Now I''m so sleepy. I''m going back to sleep." She could only


    beg.


    "Well, I''ll let you go if you say it clearly." His attitude was overbearing and tough, and there was no


    concession at all.


    "What do you want me to say?" She was extremely guilty, as if a thief was caught when he was


    stealing.


    "Are you crying for me? Did you regret it? Are you reluctant to part with me? " A series of questions


    were just like shots beside her ears which made her heart beat faster and her breath more rapid. She


    looked away and almost had no courage to look at him.


    "I... I didn''t. You abandoned me when I was in aa and married someone else. You didn''t give me a


    single cent of raising me. As a result, I became theughingstock in the rich women''s circle. They all


    thought I was a total idiot. It''s all your fault to make me suffer this great humiliation. Without you, I eat


    well, sleep well, feel fresh and happy every day. Why should I cry for you? I''m very happy that I''m going


    to marry Hanson. "


    Her dark eyes rolled in the eyes. It was a small trick. Zac saw it. He had known her several tiny


    expressions since they got along for a long time. As long as she lied to him, her two big ck eyes


    would roll here and there.


    There was a slight smile of triumph on his lips. "Essie, do you know what I hate you most?"


    "What?" She stared at him fiercely. In his eyes, she seemed to have every weakness from head to foot,


    and he was not pleased at all.
