Chapter 73

Katherine let out a sigh as she saw the bouquet of flowers in her hands.

There was no garbage bin in sight, so i] she had to keep holding on to the bouquet until she could
throw it away.

"What seems to be the problem? Do you need something?" Katherine asked.

She raised her eyebrows gradually as she looked at Zack.

Zack's gaze turned to the bouquet of flowers that Katherine was holding in her arms and thought that it
was beautiful.

He felt a cold and distant stare from Katherine when she turned to look at him.

Zack's adam's apple was noticeable as he looked straight at Katherine with his dark and piercing eyes
that I were even colder than her expression.

"Yes, I have something to tell you? “ Zack replied.

Katherine was taken aback by Zack's response.

She turned to the car door and pulled it open.

She immediately closed the door after placing the bouquet of flowers in the front passenger seat.

Katherine turned to Zack and asked, "What is it?"

"Let's talk about this inside," Zack answered briefly.

Zack wanted to have a discussion inside, so he took a step to the side of the entrance and motioned for
Katherine to drive in.



Katherine, on the other hand, remained still and gave an uninterested gaze toward Zack while saying,
"There's no need to do that.If you have something to say, you can tell me right now” Katherine paused
for a bit and chuckled.

She continued, "A lot of people have been keeping a close watch on me recently.It's possible that
paparazzi are watching us from afar while having their cameras ready.I'm assuming that you don't want
us to be at the top of the trending list tomorrow, right?"

While Zack coughed on Katherine's words, his expression grew even colder as he said, "Look, about
Chloe, I requested that she issue a public apology to you.You can drop the lawsuit now” Katherine
looked over at Zack's demeanor as she felt her anger turn into laughter and contempt.

"I think I have shown you enough respect already.Is that the only reason why you showed up here
unannounced?" she responded.

"Yes” Zack answered.

As a matter of fact, Zack felt like that was not the only reason why he decided to visit.

After clocking out from a long and exhausting day at the company, it was Aidan's words that prompted
Zack to come here unexpectedly.

Before Oliver arrived, Zack's car had already pulled over at the entrance of Katherine's villa.

Zack had no idea why that Oliver came, and he had no intention of informing Katherine that he had
arrived here earlier too! However, Zack kept on pondering about everything that Oliver said to
Katherine, and he couldn't stop himself from going out of the car to butt in their conversation.

The moment Katherine saw Zack, she didn't feel the need to speak with him.

The only words that she could utter were to ask him what was the matter.



Katherine's intuition told her that he was only there because he had something he was desperate to
gain.

Other than bringing up the only thing he could talk about, Zack had nothing further to say.

Katherine let out an "Oh!" and nodded in agreement.

She glanced at Zack and asked a question that was completely unrelated.

"Zack, you're quite shameless, aren't you?" She continued.

Zack was taken aback, and all he felt was absolute confusion.

"What do you mean by that?" he asked.

"You wouldn't even have come here today to bring that up to me if you have any shame,’ Katherine
answered.

Katherine spoke with her smile gradually fading.

She gave Zack a glance that was comparable to an icy bath.

"On the day that I decided to divorce you, I told you to look out for the people in your life.

Do not provoke me because there will be no favorable outcomes for you;’ she meaningfully noted.

The scolding that Zack received was unlike anything that he had ever experienced in his entire life.

Zack's expression was cold as he stood waiting for Katherine to finish talking.

Once she was done, she got back into her car and drove inside.



Zack remained standing there as he waited for the gate to close slowly.

It took him some time, but he eventually returned to his car with a bitter expression on his face.

However, the passion in his heart was still there.

Zack departed with a dispirited mood.

During the ride, his phone suddenly rang and showed Sean's caller ID, but Zack only pressed the drop
call button.

However, Sean persistently called him over and over again.

In the end, Zack couldn't bear to hear the continuous ringing of his phone.

"This better be important,’’ he answered rudely once he picked up.

"The timing couldn't have been better.I really need to inform you of an urgent matter,’’ Sean replied.

"Don't waste my time and say what you have to say already!" Zack answered irritably.

"Natalie is drunk and is acting crazy! She's surrounded by people.Are you not even bothered by that?"
Sean said.

Zack sneered and replied, "Why do you show too much interest in something that is not even the least
of your concern?"

Zack couldn't care less and immediately hung up the phone call.
