Chapter 48 Fall For Her?
Chapter 48 Fall For Her?
Instead of heading to the company, Zachariah drove to a hotel. After parking the car, he went up to the 20th floor.
As he opened the door and stepped into the room, a svelte lady came up and kissed him on the lips. Zachariah kissed her back naturally and shut the door.
Slowly, they let go of each other after the snog. Cora, embracing Zachariah's neck with both arms, said effeminately, "I thought you're not coming, Zach."
Hugging her into his arms, Zachariah led her to the sofa and answered tenderly, "You know I always cherish you, and will definitely come up to you whenever you message me."
Cora lowered her head and said like she was wronged, "When I was in your home, you barely talked to me, and Aunty Helena also misunderstood me. You have a beautiful wife now, and I am afraid there is no place for me in your heart!"
Raising her chin tenderly, Zachariah comforted her in an affectionate tone, "As I have told you, I married her only because she looks quite like you."
"But how do you explain the way you look at her? Four years have passed since we separated, and I am afraid she has taken away all the feelings that you once held for me."
With tears welling in her eyes, even the most iron-hearted man would be moved by her delicate and endearing face.
Zachariah’s heart softened immediately, and said, "Don’t you know who I really love?"
Between Zachariah’s words was his genuine love for Cora, which Cora failed to notice.
Cora melted into smiles, stroking Zachariah's face tenderly with her delicate fingers and looking at him with obsessed eyes, "Though you're literally saying so, for days since I came back, you just simply kiss me and haven’t touched me. I want to know why."
"That is because I cherish your chastity and dare not to cross the line before we get married." Zachariah said passionately with resolution in his eyes.
As she leant on his shoulder, a sense of evil flashed through her eyes. She then said with delight, "It's so nice of you, Zach. I know you love me as much as I do, and I promise I will keep my virginity until our wedding night. But when exactly will you divorce Ophelia?"
Zachariah stroked her long hair and answered, "After you finish your duties in Europe and come back, I will marry you."
"How about divorce her now, Zach?" Cora asked.
Zachariah frowned, and seemed a little displeased by Cora's words.
Sensing the change of Zachariah's expression, Cora explained in tender tone, "Zach, don't get me wrong. The only thing stuck in my head now is nothing but to marry you and to earn forgiveness from Aunty Helena as soon as possible! I'm sorry for not caring about your feelings and heading to Europe, but you need to trust me that it was just my own decision, and I messed with no one in these years!"

Zachariah stopped her by pressing his fingers against her lips.
"I have never doubted your virtuousness, dear. Take it easy, and I never doubted you. I will explain to her. Don’t worry about her."
Cora asked sweetly again in a lower voice, "Really? What if Aunty Helen hates me forever?"
"Don't you remember that you used to be her favorite, you silly? You don't have to worry about it."
"No, I just couldn't stop thinking about it, Zach! Four years ago, I went abroad to fulfill my dream, being deaf to the persuasions of my parents and bringing indignity to your family. Even now, I still regret everything I have done!" said Cora anxiously.
"It's OK, Cora. I'm here." Zachariah said affirmatively.
"Please touch me, Zach. Touch me, I have grown up, and no longer the little girl you once knew. Touch me, or I will feel unsettled." Looking deep into Zachariah’s eyes, Cora said.
Zachariah was shocked, frowning and looking at her as if it was incredible hearing such words from her, "I'm surprised by what you have just said, dear."
Cora then hastily rushed into his bosom again and said, "I love you so much, Zach! I left years ago since I thought you didn't touch me because you didn’t love me. And even though I'm back now, it's still the same! Why? Do you doubt my chastity?"
Zachariah was softened and comforted hastily, "I love you so much, Cora, so much that I want to cherish the first time between us, and give you a perfect experience on our wedding night!"
Lowering her voice, Cora asked with a gloomy face, "Have you ever had sex with Ophelia?"
"Of course, she is my wife." Zachariah answered, taking it completely for granted.
"Are you in love with her, Zach?" Cora raised her head, staring at Zachariah bitterly.
