Catching a glimpse of the sadness in Zachary's eyes, Lenora pursed her lips and clenched her fists.
I'm just telling the truth, aren't I? What does he have to feel hurt about?
"That's right! Zachary, the way you're acting is not only an insult to the relationship between you and Susanna
but also undermines me. Do you think I'll fall for your scheme? Impossible! Whatever it is you want from me, |

"What do | want from you? Tell me, what is it that | want?"

Upon meeting his deep gaze, she instinctively took a step back, her heels pressing against the wall beside the
elevator door. "What... What do you think you're doing?"
He braced his arm against the wall and dipped his head slightly. His warm breath fanned over her cheeks and
cars, and she could not help but shrink back at the tickling sensation.
"Look at me," he said in a low voice.
She looked up and found herself staring straight into the depths of his eyes. His gaze was unfathomable,
mysterious, and imposing. It seemed able to see through any secret and thought, and none could escape.

help averting her eyes, saying, "Ms. Carston is still at the police station. Are you sure you want to waste time

"It's not that | don't dare. | just don't want to have anything to do with you anymore-"
"Lenora, you don't dare. You're scared," he stated confidently.
She lifted her gaze and locked eyes with him.
As their gazes intertwined, she clenched her fists tightly and suppressed the urge to look away. "So? What are
you trying to say?"
He looked into her eyes. Then, uttering each word distinctly, he said, "Nora, when | approached you, | indeed had

At that moment, the elevator doors happened to open. A resident emerged from within and glanced at the pair
before walking away.
Just as the elevator doors were about to automatically close, Lenora broke free from Zachary's grasp, darted
inside, and pressed the button for her floor.
The elevator immediately started ascending.
Once she got back, Sophia immediately stood up and looked behind her. "Did Tyrant Fuller give you at hard

"Actually, no," she replied, casually closing the door behind her.
She also found it rather odd that he had not asked her to write a settlement agreement for Susanna

Tyler held his forehead in distress. They had almost finished filming Susanna's scenes, but now that this
unexpected incident had occurred, he feared they would have to replace her and reshoot. It would cost a great
deal of time, money, and energy.
Fortunately, her role is only a special appearance, and she didn't have many scenes. So, there's still a chance to
salvage things. It's just that finding the right actor will be challenging rough, but finding one who's both suitable

As for Kyle, he was also worried, but not over Susanna. In fact, Susanna being unable to act anymore was just
what he wanted.
Instead, he was worrying about Gary. It meant that he would be losing an assistant, and finding a replacement
he could get along with would not be easy.
Meanwhile, Lenora knew nothing of their distress.
It was Easter that day, and she had specifically gone to the Fuller residence for lunch.
Before arriving, she had thought she might run into Zachary. To her surprise, he had gone earlier that morning
and dropped off Harrietta before leaving, claiming he had social engagements and would not be around at noon.
Lenora felt much more at ease, yet there was an indescribable feeling lingering in her heart.
Nonetheless, she ignored it and busied herself making Easter eggs with Allison.
Harrietta also hurried over excitedly to lend a hand.
Easter was also celebrated in places abroad where Clusian communities gathered, but the atmosphere was not
as vibrant as it was back home.
Soon, Johanne and his family arrived.
Upon seeing Mallory and Johanne this time, Lenora noticed that their relationship appeared to have thawed
significantly. Judging by the way they interacted, it seemed that Johanne had been making quite an effort to
humble himself. It was only after chatting with them that she learned that Mallory was pregnant.
