Ever since I knew Teresa, I had never thought of her as a good woman. All I knew was that she was a heartless woman.
She might be heartless, but her love for Zack was indeed true.
The crazy, stubborn, and irrational love.
She loved Zack and Victoria loved Benjamin. And I somehow ended up being in this twisted fate of them.
Since it was twisted, someone was bound to get hurt.
I'd rather not be the one getting hurt.
Teresa was very shocked and her face turned pale. She then asked coldly, "Why did you come to Zack's company?"
I gave her a sidelong glance. Ignoring her, I called Zack and said, "I'll wait for you at the door of the company... Ten minutes? Well, okay, I'll wait for you and drive you home later."
Teresa's face became paler. After I hung up the phone, she reached out and pushed me hard. Because I was wearing high heels, I couldn't keep balance and took two steps back, but fortunately, I didn't fall down.
I was stunned, but then I looked at her coldly and said with a smile, "I wanted to do the same to you but then I thought I wouldn't bite a dog back, right? Teresa, you might think that no one's gonna be able to take you down. But I warn you, I am not what I used to be anymore. What happened just now won't happen again!"
Teresa's expression turned ugly as she said, "Are you threatening me?"
I said indifferently, "If you want Zack to like you, you should give him a reason at least, instead of standing here like an annoying b*tch!"
Teresa curled her lips and asked, "Huh, who do you think you are to lecture me? Then let me ask you, if you want Benjamin to like you, have you ever given him a reason?"
"It doesn't matter whether he likes me or not." I looked up at the blue City B sky and said, "I'm not as patient as you. My love doesn't last that long without being responded to. For me, Benjamin is just past, so I don't care if he likes me or others. I don't have to please Benjamin like you do."
I paused and said faintly, "I'm not as cheap as you."
"You might think you are not but you are just as cheap! Otherwise, why did you carry his child? The child you lost on the day he didn't choose to save you again!"
Teresa's words made me feel embarrassed, but it was just embarrassment.
I didn't feel angry, and I even found it funny.
"Teresa!" I heard a cold voice. I tilted my head to look at Benjamin, who was standing upright. It turned out that he had been eavesdropping on us in the car, but it was unnecessary for him to eavesdrop.
After all, he arrived there earlier than me.
Was he the one who drove Teresa here?
I remembered that he had once said that Zack would be hers.
He was helping Teresa get Zack.
To be honest, I'd never seen a man who could put up with what he did.
Teresa was a little embarrassed. She said, "Benjamin, did you hear what she said to me? Did you?"
Benjamin glanced at me indifferently and then looked away. He said to Teresa, "Let's go back and come back tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Teresa said in a sad voice, "Zack hid from me for half a year. I could make my peace with that, but today is his birthday, and I don't want to miss it. Benjamin, you promised me that you would persuade him to have dinner with us."
I forgot that today was Zack's birthday.
And I didn't expect Teresa to be so humble. She actually asked Benjamin to persuade Zack. Didn't she know that Benjamin hated Zack? Didn't Zack hate Benjamin as well?
Benjamin fixed his eyes on me and said calmly, "She's here, Zack won't go with us."
Teresa looked at me almost subconsciously
Her eyes were filled with grief and hatred.
"Em, let's go."
Zack appeared at the entrance of the company in a suit. He walked up to me and took the sunglasses and car keys from my hand.
I ignored Teresa and Benjamin and entered the car. When Zack was about to sit in, I heard Teresa whispering, "Zack, can I have dinner with you?"
Zack was silent, then he went into the driver's seat and started the car to leave.
He had completely neglected Teresa.
When the car stopped at a traffic light, I asked hesitantly, "Have you been in this state for more than half a year?"
Zack faintly explained, "I forgave her once for what she did to you because I've known her long enough to do that. But that was not something I could do again. If I did, there will no doubt be a third time."
Zack turned his head to look at me and said gently, "It's her own business who she loves. It's my own business who I'm willing to talk to. Besides... Laurelie warned me that I should break off my relationship with her."
