687 Words
Separated from the scattered passersby in the mall, the man stood before the crowd, his gaze fixed on her.
Yvonne's mind went blank in an instant.
"It's him! It's really him!"
She had finally seen him again!
It seemed as if he were the only one left in the world.
As Yvonne thought this, she couldn't help but drop everything, stagger through the crowd, and walk toward him.
Seeing that she was acting crazy, Zachary frowned slightly.
However, in the next second, the girl threw herself into his arms.
The assistant beside her was so startled by her outburst that she covered her mouth.
Zachary also felt a slight hesitation, but for Yvonne, she hugged him tightly, refusing to let go. In fact, she was even trembling a little.
"I thought... I'd never see you again."
In her previous life, on a stormy night at sea, someone recklessly jumped in and pulled her from the water, teetering on the brink of life or death.
She was eventually rescued, but the sea winds and waves shifted rapidly, and he himself sank to the bottom of the ocean forever.
Every time she thought of the last time he looked at her in her dreams at night, she felt cold and heartbroken!
In the abyss, he remained silent, yet simultaneously, he was forming her mouth.
"Yvonne, I love you."
"Live well."
"Even if the whole world is against you, you must live for me too."
"Yvonne?"
Zachary had never dreamed that one day Yvonne would take the initiative to embrace him. As he thought this, his muscles tensed, and his voice was slightly hoarse.
He couldn't even believe that the woman in front of him was exactly Yvonne, who had been furious with him in front of everyone not long ago, saying that she only had Jordan in her heart in this life.
He couldn't help but glance carefully at the woman before him.
She was still so glamorous, but at this moment, those beautiful eyes were filled with tears, as if she were in pain and had experienced great sorrow.
"What's wrong, huh?"
The man's familiar voice resonated in her ears with such truth, and at this moment, Yvonne suddenly became serious. Zachary didn't know she had been reincarnated! She suddenly and hurriedly let go of his hands, panicked, and straightened her clothes. "I'm sorry, Mr. Leinster, I..."
Zachary was only ten years older than Yvonne, and in terms of appearance, he was extremely handsome. However, when Yvonne was ten years old, he was a frequent guest at the Taylor family home. Moreover, as a child, she had no idea of age, so Yvonne had always been used to calling him "uncle."
Seeing her suddenly withdraw, Zachary narrowed his eyes. He had an enigmatic expression, but he still looked incredibly handsome.
"Are you alright?"
"I'm fine..." Yvonne quickly wiped away her tears. "I was just so excited to see you..."
However, Zachary still seemed confused.
"Is she excited when she sees me?"
In Yvonne's heart, her feelings for this man had always been filled with both admiration and fear.
In her previous life, Yvonne went to Zachary's bed to avenge her father. However, her father thought Zachary was using his daughter to threaten the Taylor Group and frantically attacked the Leinster Group.
Later, Zachary also fought against the Taylor family because she was repeatedly hurt by them. Both men loved her dearly, but they fought tirelessly for her due to their ignorance.
In the end, Sarah killed her father, and the Taylor Group went bankrupt. Since then, this tycoon had disappeared from Hiltonan, and Zachary had taken over the entire Taylor Group, which became the sole Zaibatsu in all of Hiltonan.
According to that memory, Zachary was ruthless and merciless, which even made Yvonne tremble with fear when she remembered it now.
"You—"
Zachary looked at the woman, who was much shorter than him. "Are you sure?"
"I'm fine."
She loved Zachary, and she also knew that he loved her. However, she wasn't in a hurry.
She still had something more important to do.
That was revenge.
