Chapter 907
“Thanks a lot. I’m happy to visit today,” Lana said with a smile.
Madelyn stood at the third-floor window and saw Kai’s car pull away. She squinted at the pregnant ladybeside him, trying to remember where she had seen her before. ‘Wow, Kai’s been really secretive. Hegot married and is having a baby,’ Madelyn thought. ‘He looked like he genuinely cared for her atdinner. It’s unbelievable. Kai and Zach made sure I’d never become a mom. And now, Kai thinks asimple “sorry” makes everything okay? No way. Guys like him deserve to be alone, just like Zachprobably will be.’
Zach crept up from behind and wrapped his arms around her. “You seem better. Maybe it’s time to payback what’s due?” he murmured.

Madelyn barely glanced at him, “Yeah, do whatever you like.”
Zach did not want her to sit there stewing in her thoughts. Squatting next to her to catch her eyes,

Madelyn gripped her paintbrush and swirled it in the blue paint before facing Zach, “I’ve outgrown thosethings, Zach. Go ahead and leave if that’s what you want. Just let me be, alright?”
Zach’s smile was slight and restrained as he rose to his feet. “Remember to rest. And if you feel sick,call me.” He reminded her softly. He wondered when he last heard from her; it had to be at least fouryears, maybe five.novelbin
Leaving the house, Zach made his way to Jardin Corporation. About forty minutes later, standingoutside the company, Kevin informed him, “The reporters are all here.”
“Got it,” Zach acknowledged with a brief nod.
With a push, Kevin swung open the conference room door.
