The injury on Zoe’s face was nothing serious. The doctor gave her a check, applied some medicine, and let her leave.
As soon as she walked out of the door, she found Henry standing in the corridor. With his back to the door, she could not see his face and did not know what he was thinking.
So she called out to him and he looked around.
“Is it done?”
Zoe nodded. Seeing him holding his phone, she asked, “Were you on a phone just now?”
“Yes.”
Henry stared at her face carefully for a while. “Does it still hurt?”
“Not that much.”
The medicine the doctor had given her had worked well. It felt cool and refreshing and the pain soon passed away.
Only then did Henry feel relieved.
Finally, they went to Mountain Club to have dinner as planned.
Meanwhile, after Tammy learnt that Zoe and Henry were in a relationship, she felt afraid but at the same time, she had doubts.
She had always held herself in high esteem and had looked down upon Zoe in her schooldays.
Since Steven she liked was taken away by Zoe, she held deep hatred towards Zoe.
Fortunately, just before long, the Gil family had an accident and Zoe went from being a rich young lady to a homeless wandering dog overnight. Only then did Tammy feel better back then.
Later, she heard from Katya that Steven had already broken up with her, and she felt even better.
But she did not expect that she could actually climb up to Henry Han after all these years.
Tammy just could not help cursing fate for being unfair.
After thinking for a while, she finally made a call to Annie Gil.
“Hello, Ann, what are you doing?”
“Rest? Oh, not something important. I just want to ask you something.”
Tammy told Annie how she met Zoe in
the shop in the afternoon.
However, she omitted the part where she was beaten, and only said that she saw Zoe was with a man, who seemed to be Henry Han.
Annie was quite surprised by Tammy’s call.
But she would by no means let go any chance to make troubles to Zoe.
So just over the telephone, she told Tammy how Zoe had broken up with Steven, and how she immediately hooked up with Henry as soon as they broke up.
Then she even sighed.
“Actually, if my sister really likes Mr. Han, it would be fine for her to be with him. I just worry that she should want something else. You know, my sister…”
Tammy sneered, “Of course I know, such a woman of vanity. So many people chased after her, but she chose Steven. Wasn’t it just because he has a rich and powerful family?”
Hearing that, Annie’s eyes flickered.
She said nothing, and Tammy asked, “Annie, are you sure they are married already? I just could not help but feel it rather unbelievable.”
Annie forced a smile.
“I am not sure about that either. We haven’t been in touch for a few years, but … I don’t think I’ve ever heard about her getting married.”
Tammy frowned.
She pondered for a while. Annie didn’t seem to want to continue the topic, so she asked, “By the way, the anniversary party of our high school is next week. Will you go?”
“Of course, how about you?
“I will have a show there. The principal invited me.”
“So you will go too. All right, see you then.”
“Ok.”
After hanging up the phone, Tammy pondered for a while longer holding the mobile phone.
Annie said she did not hear the news of Zoe’s marriage. Did that meant that they were not married actually, she wondered.
Since Henry had been such a bigshot to begin with, it was normal if he didn’t marry her, so…
A flash came across her eyes and she hurriedly dug out a number from the phone and made a call.
After the call went through, she forced a smile and asked in a sweet voice, “Mr. Nixon, are you free? I’ve got a few questions…”
A few minutes later, Tammy hung up the phone.
She looked out of the window with a triumphant smile.
Just as she had expected, how could Zoe marry Henry?Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
How was that possible?
She had just made it clear over the phone that it had never been heard that there was a new Mrs. Han.
Not only that, it was said that Henry had already had a fiancee, who was the daughter of the Kawn family.
As for the Kwan family?
In the capital, Eqitin, there were four great families, namely, the Han family, the Bissel family, the Kawn family and the Nixon family.
Each of them was powerful enough to change the life of everyone in the country of Ambario. Just what was Zoe against a Miss Kawn?
She could not help but find the whole thing ridiculous!
After making the matter clear, Tammy finally felt much, much better.
She had just ‘accidentally’ revealed the news, and she believed that it would not be long before Natalia got into great trouble!
But she didn’t mind causing a little trouble to her before she got into the really big troubles!
As she was thinking, she showed a wry smile, picked up the mobile phone and made a call again.
“Hello, Charlotte, this is Tammy. Will you all go to the school anniversary? Everyone in our class will of course be there! Have your classmates been informed? Have you informed Zoe?
She’s long gone home! Good, if you find her contact, just tell her, you are classmates after all…”
The next day, Zoe received a call from Charlotte Neal.
Charlotte Neal was always the leader of the class when they were at the school.
But still, Zoe was surprised to receive the invitation to the school anniversary.
After all, her reputation had already been tarnished by the incident when she was in high school. She had heard about the school anniversary but had not been officially notified, so she did not plan to go there at the beginning.
But unexpectedly, she received a call from Charlotte.
Zoe had little interest in such an activity, and she had few friends in her student days, let alone any old memories to cherish, so she didn’t
want to agree.
But Charlotte repeatedly persuaded her, and finally agreed to go.
After that, Zoe put the matter out of her mind and thought no more about it.
Unexpectedly, a few days later, she received a phone call from Victoria, who also asked about this matter.
“Zo, I heard that you will go to the anniversary, is it true?”
In high school, Victoria was in the same class as Zoe, and it was from Charlotte that she got the news.
When she received the call, Zoe was looking through a document and she answered casually.
“Well, yes, why?”
Victoria paused for a moment.
It was as if she hadn’t decided how she should tell her what was in her mind.
“You know what they invited you for. Why did you agree?”
Zoe was stunned.
Of course she knew why Charlotte was trying so hard to invite her.
However, she was not that Zoe Gil five years ago. Back then, in the face of the rumors coming from everywhere, she could not defend herself and could only bear the humiliation and watch her reputation get ruined.
But it was different now.
She had her strength and claws now.
Should anyone try to bully her again, she would pay them back tenfold!
She was not afraid that they might come to her but that no one would come to her.
At the thought of this, she gave a smile and said, “You don’t have to worry about me. It’s just a school anniversary. They wound not do anything to me in front of so many people.”
“That is why I don’t want you to go. You know for the scandal of five years ago, everyone thought you did it!”
“Who else would believe you but me? Charlotte invited you just to humiliate you in public!”
“I even suspect that it was they who had spread the news back then!”
“How would they just let you off when they’ve got a chance?”
