Way Back Into Love (Essie)

"I... I just want to have a look at him. After all, I was pregnant for ten months and I miss him. " Said Valery in a pitiful voice.

"It seems that you are very sober and not mad." Zac snorted. If not for Rabi's sake, he would never let her live so comfortably.

"I... I took medicine every day. After taking medicine, I became clear headed. "Of course, Valery wasn't mad. She just pretended to be mad because she was afraid that Zac would punish her. "Rabi has nothing to do with you. From now on, stay away from him." Zac warned.

"Got it." Said Valery in a trembling voice.

"Get out, as far as you can." When Zac growled, Valery just ran out like a rat. Her heart was full of hatred. She would try to get back what Essie owed to her.

Rabi didn't cry at the moment. As a child, he didn't remember what had happened just now. With the comfort of Essie, he forgot what he had seen just now and suggested going to take the ferris wheel. The ferris wheel had special meaning to Essie and Zac. It was the place where they had dated for the first time, although it was only a mock date, they both had unforgettable memories. "Daddy, Mommy, can I live with you? Why do other kids live with their parents and I have to live with grandparents?" Touching Zac's face with his face, Rabi thought Zac would agree as long as he acted in pettish to him.

Zac touched his head. He wanted to give him a complete family, but the dreamy woman in front of him had never thought of reuniting with him, which annoyed him. He would never grovel to her, unless she took the initiative to apologize and came back voluntarily. Otherwise, just let this be.

"You are still young and need adults' care. When you go to primary school, you can come back and live with daddy." He had already prepared to take his time to fight with the woman.

"When can I go to primary school?" Rabi blinked his eyes. He didn't understand what school meant.

"You can go to primary school after kindergarten." Zac stroked his little face.

Hearing that, Rabi looked at him with his head tilted to one side. Then she looked at Essie, and finally burst into laughter. He didn't know how long it would take, but he was looking forward to living with his parents soon.

Looking at him, she couldn't help but think of her Mili and Dot. 'If I don't let them meet their biological father before they grow up, will it be too cruel? But what if Zac knows and take them away? He was so bossy and independent, she couldn't win him at all. And she couldn't allow her children to treat Leila as mother, and her children would not live with a stepmother.'

After Essie got out of the ferris wheel, she received a call from Jack. The police had found out the suspect who tried to murder Alice. According to the murder, he was once an employee of the Hengyuan company. Because he was fired, he decided to take revenge on Alice. He was also a patient with AIDS. As a result of looking for prostitutes, he got AIDS. His condition had worsened, and there were only a few days left for him to live.

"He must be a scapegoat." Clarissa said angrily. He was willing to do anything like murder and arson as long as someone was willing to give him money.

"Don't get involved in the affairs of Xu family. Go back to Summer 100 Degree and do your design. Zac comforted her. The Xu family was like a whirlpool that was too urgent. He didn't want her to be in any danger.

"I won't give up unless Elizabeth and Valery lose everything." Essie said resolutely.

"If you get involved in the struggle of the Xu family, your enemy will not only be Elizabeth," Zac held her shoulder. It seemed that she hadn't figured out the real situation of the Xu family.

"Who else could it be?" Essie was shocked.

"Do you think that only a woman like Elizabeth can cause such a big trouble in the Xu family?" While speaking, a sharp light flashed through his eyes, as if he had figured out the secret behind the plot. "Do you know something?" She asked.

He moved his lips and made no sound. Before he could find out the real master of the conspiracy, it was better for her not to know about something. According to her character, as long as he gave her any information, she would definitely insist on digging it out.

The group's target was Cathy. If they noticed that something was wrong with her, they would certainly change their target and try to kill her.

"You just need to remember one thing. Don't trust anyone easily."

"Including you?" She looked at him with a smile.

There was a trace of incomprehensible darkness in his eyes. "Think about it by yourself." He said softly and walked out of the park with Rabi in his arms.

His ambiguous tone made her a little uneasy. He would not become her enemy, would he? She asked herself. From the bottom of her heart, she did not want to get a negative answer.

Tonight, Essie thought about a lot of things. If Elizabeth wasn't the only opponent, it would be difficult for her to deal with her alone. Moreover, they had hidden in the dark, making it difficult for her to defend effectively. She needed a protection umbrella, even if it was just a cover, as long as the enemy was wary of her.

The next day, she went to Zac's office. He was the umbrella she needed. He was her ex-husband, the strongest man in Dragon City. She needed to make them believe that they had been reconciled and he would be her backer. They should weigh it before they harmed her and Cathy.

"Is it a business or a personal matter?" Lying on the chair, Zac looked at her casually.

She took a deep breath and plucked up all her courage to hide her self-esteem. She said in a low voice, "can you be my partner in tonight's ball of celebrities?"

Zac was slightly stunned. He was surprised and somewhat joyful at her initiative. He didn't say anything, and his face was expressionless. There was nothing but a little star twinkling in his deep and cold eyes. "Are you inviting me?"

"Yes." She nodded, "I hope you can go with me."

"Why?" Zac asked slowly.

'Because you are my solid body armor which can block bullets.'

She thought to herself and said lightly, "I just want to go with you."

"Are you regretful and do you want to get back together with me?" He curled his lips into a smile, but in his heart, waves of joy arose like waves. 'Finally, does she want to go back?'

'There's no way we can fix it.' She thought.

Despite the whispers in her heart, she dared not speak it out. Now she had to beg him, so she had to be gentle and not to irritate him. "Do you have a companion?" To avoid this topic, Essie changed the subject.

Exactly. Zac was in a dilemma. He had agreed with Leila before she came here.

Again, it was obvious to Essie and she had already guessed who his date was. Thinking of this, she felt very sad and disappointed.

"Sorry to bother you. Just forget what I said." She bit her lips, turned around and was about to leave. He said behind her, "come back."

She stopped and glared at him. "What else do you want, President Rong?"

"Well..." Zac coughed and said, "I can't go to the ball with you, but we can have midnight snack after the ball."

"Not interested." She said angrily and ran out quickly.

Zac cursed in his heart for several times. "Damn!" how could he promise Leila? It was not easy for her to take the initiative for once, but he rejected her in this way. Didn't he miss the opportunity to reconcile? While he was thinking, he picked up the phone in a hurry and wanted to reject her invitation, but he stopped before he dialed the number.

This muddled fool had left him for three years, and she just asked him to join her without any hesitation. It was too worthless. He should make her know how to cherish him. With that thought, he hung up the phone.

And Essie walked out of the elevator, depressed.

'Damn it! Why do you come here to humiliate yourself? He can't be my protector at all; he can only lie to her, use her and play with her. He only love Leila, and he don't have any feelings for me. He doesn't care whether I am alive or dead?' Essie thought to herself. From now on, she would throw him into the permanent black list, she would not come to beg him even if she would be killed.

When she arrived at the parking lot of the Emperor building and was about to get on the car, she heard a voice from the side, "baby pineapple, you're back?"

She turned around and saw Walt standing behind with a pleasant smile on his face.

"Big brother, long time no see." She tried her best to suppress her anger provoked by Zac and forced out a smile.

"Are you here for Zac?" Asked Walt.

"Just some business matters. I have divorced him. That's all." Then she continued in a fit of pique, with her chest full of resentment against the man.

A hint of joy quietly flew across Walt' eyes. It was a good thing for him.

"It's a great loss for Zac to lose you."

"It doesn't matter for him whether I'm here or not."

Essie smiled bitterly. They all cared about their first love since childhood. The supporting dish of her was so trivial.

"Let's not talk about him." Walt shrugged and changed the subject. "There's a socialite ball tonight. I don't have a partner. May I invite you?"

"What?" Hearing his invitation, Essie was stunned again and didn't know what to do.

Seeing that she was silent, Walt was a little disappointed. "I'm sorry. I was too abrupt." He apologized.

"It doesn't matter. I'm going to the ball too, and I haven't found a partner yet." She then bit her lower lip.

A charming smile appeared on Walt's face. "I'll pick you up tonight."

"Okay." Essie nodded.

It never occurred to Zac that Essie's partner would be his brother. When Essie walked in holding Walt's arm, he was shocked.

Essie was dressed in an oriental orchid shaped evening dress with curly hair. With light make-up, she looked fresh and beautiful.

The moment Zac saw them, he regretted. How could he forget that if she did not agree with him, she would go to the ball with other men? Although the man standing beside her was his brother, he felt very jealous when he saw the affectionate gesture of Essie holding his brother's arm.
