Chapter 1190
“Smack p>
Elysia’s hand landed sharply across Priscilla’s cheek.
Priscilla’s eyes widened in shock. p>
Zane was just as stunned. p>
Elysia stared coldly at Priscilla. “You spread one more lie about me, and I’ll mess up your pretty face p>
Then she turned her fierce gaze on Zane, “You tell me, should I have slapped her or not? Isn’t she spreading rumors? Do I have anything to do with you p>
Zane was speechless. p>
Elysia added fuel to the fire, “Let me tell you, if it wasn’t for your mom, I wouldn’t have known you’ve already fallen for Winona! Thanks to her, I can see your true colors now p>
Priscilla was taken aback, confused by the accusation. Was Elysia trying to stir up trouble?
“Son, I wasn’t making things up, I p>
“Shut up!” Zane roared, cutting her off.
Priscilla was left fuming silently. p>
“Sniff, sniff Winona’s sobs grew louder.
Elysia quickly moved to Winona’s side, getting down to business. Keaton had orchestrated this whole drama to bring Winona back to the Number One Mansion!
The plan only involved a kissing scene today to accommodate Winona’s future plans. This incident alone wouldn’t completely sever ties between Winona and Zane. If Winona wanted to continue her act in front of Zane later, she could.
“Winona, don’t be upset. A jerk like him isn’t worth it. Come on, I’m taking you with me p>
Zane’s brow furrowed with concern, and he hurriedly asked, “Where are you taking Winona p>
“To my place p>
“No way!” Zane refused outright. Winona was his leverage! What if she went to Elysia’s and suddenly remembered everything?
“Elysia, I swear on my mother’s life, there’s nothing between me and that woman! I’ll take Winona home, make sure she’s okay, and then I’ll investigate to clear my name p>
Elysia gritted her teeth, “Go home with you?! You don’t love Winona anymore, and your mom hates her. Why should I let Winona go back and suffer p>
Zane frowned, “If you’re really worried, you can come with Winona to my place, but you can’t take her away p>
Just as Elysia was about to snap, Tarquin and Keaton arrived.
“Have my wife move into your house? Are you out of your mind p>
Tarquin’s expression was dark and displeased.
Zane was taken aback. p>
Elysia saw her savior and her eyes welled up with tears. “Honey, he’s cheating on her and won’t let me take Winona p>
Tarquin stood beside Elysia, glaring at Zane with a tone that brooked no argument, “We’re taking Winona with us today. If you have objections, keep them to yourself p>
Zane gritted his teeth, “Winona is my wife. She should come with me p>
“Hah!” Keaton, dressed sharply in a white suit, chuckled, hands casually in his pockets, “Now you remember wife? Where was that thought when you were cheating p>
Zane turned to glare at Keaton! They didn’t have much interaction, but he knew Keaton was not someone to mess with. Suppressing his anger, Zane said, “I didn’t cheat! I don’t even know that woman p>
Keaton narrowed his eyes, his voice calm and mocking, “Do you have proof you didn’t cheat? Just
because you say so doesn’t make it true. Those photos are real. If were
you, wouldn’t stop her. What’s wrong with her staying at a friend’s for a few days? Once you prove your innocence, you can bring her back. Your nervousness makes you look guilty. Besides, if Tarquin says he’s taking her, do you really think you can stop him? I know I couldn’t. I don’t have that kind of power p>
Zane was left speechless. p>
Keaton’s words were a clear jab, drenched in sarcasm. Did Zane have the power
to stop them?
He didn’t.
In front of Tarquin, he was nothing.
