Chapter 52: An Upset Lyndsy

Patricia was dropped off at her home.

After saying a few words to her mother, she went to her room.

Although she was tired, she tossed and turned on the bed, unable to fall asleep.

"Only you can be my woman!"

"You are my woman for the rest of your life."

These words constantly rang through her mind.

Perhaps Zac had only said these words casually, and they held no deeper meaning.

But to her, it felt like a typhoon had swept over her.

Out of the blue, she thought of what Kareem had advised her to do.

Although he was also a dangerous man, and her life might end miserably at his hands if she listened to
him, she didn't want her life to continue to be influenced by Zac.

She could only hate this man! It was fine with her that her love for him stayed in the deepest recesses
of her heart since she had no intention of ever allowing those feelings to resurface.

It was a sleepless night.

On the following morning, Patricia awoke very early, thus arriving at the company earlier than usual.

When she saw Lily talking and laughing with Jayson intimately, she was surprised.

After Jayson left, Patricia walked to Lily's side.



She stared at her for a long time before finally asking, "Lily, is there something going on between you
and Jayson that..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Lily interrupted her.

"Miss Sampson, what you're thinking off is impossible.We'll never be together.He is not suitable for
me!"

It appeared that admitting this had taken all her strength.

After she had finished stating this, Lily suddenly leaned against the chair.

She seemed to have lost all her spirit, and her beautiful face turned pale.

"What makes you say that?" Patricia asked.

She knew that sometimes people needed to vent their emotions, especially someone like Lily, who
always bottled up her emotions.

"Miss Sampson, do you really think Jayson is that simple as he looks?" asked Lily as she tried to sit up
straight in her chair.

"What do you mean by that?"

Patricia asked in confusion as she looked at Lily.Jayson was the secretary of the president.That was all
about him.Who else could he be?

"He is the only son of Kendall Lawrence, the CEO of the Lawrence Group.Do you think it’s possible for
me to be with him, considering my background?"

When Lily said this, there was a deep sense of inferiority and pain hidden behind her eyes, but Patricia
still noticed it.



"You said he was the son of the CEO of the Lawrence Group?"

She was thoroughly surprised by the fact that Jayson was the son of such a prominent family.

However, since he was the son of the CEO of the Lawrence Group, why did he take on such a minor
role as secretary to the president of the Veyron Corp.? Did he have a hidden agenda?

"Yes, I found out about that fact by accident."

Lily somberly stated, a flicker of pain flashing in her eyes.

Jayson had kept a low profile since he started working in the company.

So, how could he let Lily know his secret? Was this really a coincidence? This was too bizarre! Patricia
thought deeper about this matter than Lily.

She felt that things were not as simple as they seemed! If Jayson was really the son of the CEO of the
Lawrence Group, then that would be fine.

But if it was a lie, and he was pretending to be someone he wasn't, then he was too cunning and
dangerous! Maybe he knew that Lily had a crush on him? And if he perceived that she would not
expose him, he could have deliberately divulged the information about his identity to her.

But what could be his reason for making Lily believe that he was the son of a wealthy family who kept a
low profile? Patricia kept these thoughts to herself and didn't say anything to Lily to avoid making her
worry.

She was still thinking about this even after she'd returned to her office.

While her mind was still wandering, too occupied about the matter of Jayson, her door was kicked
open, and in walked Lyndsy.



Lily followed closely behind her, angry at herself for being unable to stop this woman from breaking in.

"Patricia! How dare you be so brazen and seduce someone else's boyfriend? You..."

Lyndsy shook the newspaper in her hand.

She was pissed off, and her hair was in a mess.

At the moment, she didn't give a care about her appearance. Glancing over at Lily, Patricia said, "Lily,
you go out and continue your work now. I'll handle everything here."

Lily didn't want to leave because she was worried about Patricia.

But thinking of how Patricia had beaten Lyndsy in the argument yesterday, Lily felt a little relieved and
went out after being urged one more time, closing the door behind her.

"Lyndsy, is it fun messing around in my company?"

Patricia put down the pen in her hand and looked at Lyndsy coldly with displeasure.

She couldn't figure out what was there in her brain.

Granted, her coming to the company would negatively influence Patricia's work and her image within
the company, but what of Lyndsy herself? She was the second daughter of the Sampson family.

Would people still think she was noble and graceful after seeing her behave so poorly?Lyndsy thought
she was trying to change the topic and said angrily, "Explain the headlines on the newspaper to me
first! Zac is mine! And you and he are divorced.So, why are you still heavily involved with him?"

Patricia hadn't seen the news yet.

Glimpsing at the article, she had a vague idea of what was written in it.



The annoying part about these types of articles was when they spread rumors that she and Zac were
going to get back together.

Thinking about Lyndsy's accusation, she squinted her eyes and said coldly, "Who on earth is the
shameless one?! Zac and I are still legally married.Even if we have signed the divorce agreement, we
haven't gone through the process and gotten the divorce certificate yet.Thus, we haven't officially
become divorced yet.So, in actuality, it seems like you couldn't wait to hook up with another person's
husband and climb into his bed!"

Yes, they hadn't gotten the divorce certificate yet.

A fact that Zac had thrown in her face before but now came in really handy to fight against Lyndsy.

"Besides, I'm sure you're aware of the fact that Sullivan was with my mother first, and I am your sister! I
have tolerated you for so many years, and that was not because I was afraid of you! Neither does that
mean you can twist the truth as you see fit."

Lyndsy, too angry to retort, took a few steps back.

She had come here to make trouble for Patricia.

After she'd made the headline twice, everyone thought that she and Zac were in a relationship.

So, now that Patricia had slipped into the mix, Lyndsy felt that she had the upper hand and could take
the moral high ground.

However, Patricia's side of the story turned everything around, and Lyndsy could think of nothing to
refute this.



Her face twisted for a moment, and she threatened with a ferocious look, "I don't care what happened
before.Now, the person whom Zac likes is me.And in the future, the one who will marry him and be his
wife will also be me.It'd be best if you wise up and stay as far away from him as possible.Maybe then I
can let you hold on to your last shred of dignity!"

"Hahaha."

Patricia laughed with disdain.

"Is it true that the one Zac loves is you? Why do I think otherwise then? Don't be so narcissistic!"

"You! You!"

Lyndsy raised her finger to point at Patricia but quickly withdrew it.

She remembered what Patricia had said earlier when she pointed to her with one finger.

And she didn't want to be mocked by her for a second time! Patricia felt better now, and her depression
about lack of sleep had also gone away.

She raised her chin to the door and said, "If you have nothing else to do here, you can leave
now.Please don't disturb my work any further."

"You! Patricia, you can only be this proud for a while longer! I will let you know who he really likes!"

Seeing that Patricia didn't rise to her bait, Lyndsy added, "Even if the person he likes isn't me, I can
guarantee that it definitely isn't you!"

"It's better if it's not me.But I'm confident it won't be you."

"No way will I like you!" a voice suddenly chimed in.



Patricia and Zac had given her a double blow.

Outside the half-opened office door, Zac stood against the light, like a Greek God, full of dignity and a
powerful aura, making people obsessed with him at only a glance.

"There you are, Zac!"

Lyndsy thought that Zac had said that remark to Patricia, and he had come here to support her.

So, she walked up to him happily and was about to pounce on him.
