Remarry My Ex-wife: Love Heals A Broken Heart

Chapter 50: Sue Him 

"No, I'm busy this afternoon!"

Patricia replied coldly and without hesitation as she continued to consume her meal.

Her beautiful eyebrows were tightly knitted, giving off the impression of annoyance.

Zac's mood turned sour when she said that.

'How could this woman be so rude? So many people are anxiously awaiting my invitation, yet here she is readily refusing me.How could she reject me like that? I have always been a man of my word.So, how could I allow others to confront me like this in public?'’ His good mood was now long gone.

Thus, Zac's following words were cold like ice.

"Five o'clock, on the dot!" said Zac firmly.

He didn't leave room for discussion or rebuttals. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

This time it was an order! Before Patricia could respond, he had grabbed Lyndsy's arm, swung them around, and headed straight for the door.

"Zac!"

Patricia immediately rose from her seat, ready to give him a piece of her mind, but he was almost out the door with Lyndsy in tow.

"You son of a bitch! You're always like this! Who do you think you are? Why should I have to listen to you? Have you already forgotten? I've divorced you.We're divorced, damn it!"

Looking at their retreating figures, Patricia was so infuriated that she couldn't help stomping her feet in frustration.

Zac saw this and couldn't help but think she looked adorable during her little fit of rage.

Seeing Patricia like this made Lily smile in delight.Although she didn't look good now, Lily could sense a girlish feeling from Patricia.

This was the real Patricia! She would stamp her feet when angry, and she would laugh when she felt happy, instead of being the cold and unapproachable woman she was all day long.

"Bastard! That bastard..."

Having forgotten that she was still in the restaurant, Patricia kept shouting "bastard" towards the retreating figure of Zac.

"Miss Sampson, Mr.Reynolds has left!"

Lily informed her in a good-natured mood as she watched him leave.

"What? Right..."

Hearing this, Patricia was brought back to her senses, restraining her anger for this man.

Turning around, she noticed the patrons watching her.

Red with embarrassment, she sat back down and covered her pretty face with her hands.

After they were finished with their meal, and before leaving with Lily, Patricia signaled to the waiter to bring their bill.

When she was notified that their lunch was already paid for, her mind ran on Zac.

It was then that she was informed that the person who had paid was awaiting her arrival in Room 10.

Patricia frowned in confusion.

She didn't know who this man could be.

Lily called to her worriedly, "Miss Sampson, how about we pay the bill again?"

But even if it was just a meal, Patricia didn't want to owe anyone anything.

The waiter then emphasized, "Miss Su, the guest in Room 10 has invited you over.He explicitly said that if you refused to meet with him here and now, then he would be forced to go to your home instead."

Hearing this, Patricia's eyebrows furrowed even deeper.

‘Did this type of domineering and unreasonable behavior really not belong to Zac?’ She knew it was pointless talking to the waiter further as she wouldn't gain any more helpful information from him.

In a low, steady voice, Patricia said, "Lily, you can go back to the company first.I'll return a bit later.You don't need to worry.Everything will be alright."

After seeing Lily off, she went to Room 10 alone.

The moment she opened the door and saw who was inside, her subtle expression turned to one of surprise.

"What? Were you expecting someone else to be here?" asked Kareem with raised brows as he twirled his wine glass in his hand.

Patricia quickly calmed herself and said, "I didn't expect that you would come and find me.What's the matter?"

She didn't like beating around the bush nor did she think that there was anything to discuss between Kareem and herself.

So, she chose the direct route, implying that she was ready to end this conversation and leave.

A cold light flashed through Kareem's eyes, but he had a gentle smile on his face.

In a warm voice, he said, "Regarding what happened in the hotel yesterday, would you need my assistance?"

Patricia’s heart skipped a beat, and she became vigilant.

"I don't know what you're talking about.If there's nothing else, I'll be going first.I need to return to the office."

"Miss Su, after your divorce, your ex-husband hooked up with your half-sister, which caused a sensation throughout the city, resulting in you being highly ridiculed.Do you not hate Zac for this?"

He deliberately lowered his voice, which sounded strangely bewitching in this confined space.

Patricia bit her lips tightly until a few white spots were peeking out on her rosy lips.

‘Do I not hate Zac? Of course I hate him! She could have forgiven him for anything else that he'd done, but that stopped when he threatened to make her abort her baby! She hated him so much! Looking at her expression, Kareem thought he had her hooked, so he continued, "After your divorce, Zac intentionally got you drunk and forced you to have sex with him.By law, this is a crime.And you can take him to court for this!"

Although she didn't know much about the law, she was aware of such crimes committed against females.

Hearing Kareem voice this option, she lowered her head and dropped her eyelashes to hide the contempt displayed in her eyes.

She did hate Zac, but she was not foolish enough to be taken advantage of by Kareem! > The rumors said Kareem and Zac got along well and the former didn't mind solving any problems that cropped up around Zac.

The truth was there was a conflict of interest between Zac and Kareem as the head of the family and the Reynolds Group hadn't been determined yet.

"Mr.Reynolds, this is a matter between Zac and myself.Please don't get involved!" declared Patricia coldly.

Turning around, she was about to leave when Kareem's following words stopped her in her tracks. "This is no bother to me, but Miss Sampson, do you want to be bullied by Zac forever, or do you want to be Mrs.Reynolds again in the future?"

Kareem asked in response to Patricia's pause.

"I'm telling you the truth.Since I knew I was coming to see you today, I made preparations! If you don't agree to my terms, Mrs.Lowell will have a hard time."

Spinning around, she glared at Kareem angrily.

"Are all men in the Reynolds family so shameless? !"

In order to achieve his own goals, he was bringing out the big guns.

Yet again, her mother was used as a bargaining chip, as they knew this was her biggest weakness! "This depends on you!"

There was no sense of shame on Kareem's face.

"Aren't you worried that I will relay this to Zac? At that time, for the sake of me providing this news and refusing to sue him, he will provide protection for my mother.It’s not difficult for him at all!"

With a cold expression on her face, she tried her best to calm down and find an advantage for herself in this situation.

She wouldn't give in easily nor would she be used as a tool by others again! The smile on Kareem's face faltered, but he was still sure to win this round.

"Really? Miss Su, will you really go to Zac and ask him for help?"

Patricia was speechless.

She really didn't want to ask for Zac’s help.

She couldn't give up her hatred for him, let alone asking him for help.

With her pride, how could she be willing to sacrifice her dignity and beg Zac for his help?

However

"Don't be so confident just yet! Sometimes people are forced to do things they don't like doing! If you push me to my extreme, do you think I wouldn't fight back with everything I have?"

After saying that, she stormed out.

She didn't want to stay with him anymore.

This man was like a cold and poisonous snake that could bite her at any time.

Staring at her back, Kareem smashed the wine glass in anger, but he didn't intend to give up.

Patricia had spoken with conviction, but inside she was worried as hell.

Apart from that, she was very much tempted by the prospect of prosecution.

Or at least when she'd first heard it, her heart had fluttered at the thought.
