NovelOnlineZachary's father, Matthew Gomez, snapped, "I can't believe you tried to kill yourself over a woman! How did |
end up with such a useless son?"
Yanis shot Matthew a glare. "Can you stop yelling at him? He just survived! Do you actually want him to die?"
Matthew had dark circles under his eyes, a clear sign that he'd been swamped for days and hadn't had a proper
night's sleep.
He snapped, "It's all your fault for spoiling him! Thanks to you, his brain is filled with nothing but women! And
now he even tried to kill himself over one? What a shame!"
His words set Yanis off. She shot Matthew a glare and retorted, "Thanks to me? Isn't he your son too? Have you
ever actually been there for him? If anything, you're the one who failed as a father!"
Andy quickly tried to stop them. "Mr. Gomez, Mrs. Gomez, please don't fight. Zachary just woke up and needs
rest.”
Zion chimed in. "Yes, please calm down."
Just then, Tessa's voice cthrough Zion's phone.
Zachary froze and stared at it. "Did Tessa call you?"

The emptiness in his eyes was replaced by a flicker of hope.
Yet, Zion just scratched his head and said, "Nope. The doctor said you haven't woken up because you have no
will to live. So, | cup with something."
With that, he turned his phone toward Zachary. On the screen, a video taken at one of Tessa's birthday parties
was playing. It was from when they had just gotten together.
Back then, Wendy was still abroad, and he wasn't juggling multiple women. He had truly loved Tessa, and she
had loved him back with all her heart.
Their life was just as sweet as that of any ordinary couple. They would go on dates, take pictures and record
videos to capture their happy moments together.
In the video, Tessa was wearing a beautiful dress with delicate makeup. She held a birthday cake in her hands,
smiling brightly at the camera.
She said, "Zachary, thank you for spending my birthday with me. I'm really happy today. This is my first time
spending my birthday with a boyfriend-it feels so special."
Zachary's voice cthrough in the video. "Tessa, I'll celebrate your birthday with you every year from now on."
Tessa beamed. "Okay!"
As it turned out, what Zachary had just heard was Tessa's voice from the video. Three years had passed, and
everything had changed. As the video ended, Zachary's chest tightened, and he broke down in tears.
He extended his hand. "Letsee it again."
Zion handed him the phone.
Zachary clutched the phone, sobbing uncontrollably as he watched the video over and over again.
Matthew's expression darkened. "Why are you so useless? Just looking at you pissesoff!"
Yanis gave him a tug. "Our son is already suffering. Do you really have to make it worse? How can you call him
useless? Do you even know what you're saying right now?

"He's the one who brought in investors for the company! Without him, we would've
gone bankrupt a long tago!"

Matthew's face remained grim, but he didn't say another word. He just stared at Zachary for a moment before
walking away.
Zachary was completely
mesmerized, replaying Tessa's video on the phone over and over again. Wendy couldn't take it anymore, so she
turned to leave as well.
Yanis wiped her tears and choked out, "Zachary, just move on from her. I'll introduce you to someone even
better."
Andy sighed. "Zachary, there are
many amazing women out there You can't ruin yourself over just one.
Tellwhat kind of woman you like, and I'll find her for you."
Zachary didn't say a word. He just sat there, staring blankly at the video.
Zion shook his head with a helpless sigh. "Forget it, let's just give him sspace."
Yanis immediately objected. "No! | can't leave him alone again. What if he tries to kill himself?"
