Chapter 206 Lust was ignited within him, and the atmosphere between them grew hotter.
That night, he had slept with her countless times. He had lost himself as he indulged himself in overwhelming pleasure.
However, when he opened his eyes the next day, the naked woman beside him was actually Wendy! At that moment, he felt like the world had collapsed.
Why was Wendy beside him? He remembered that it had been Tessa last night.
Feeling angry and embarrassed, he began lashing out at Wendy.
However, she did not get mad. Instead, she looked at him with puppy eyes as she gently bit her red lips and cried.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Zachary, didn't you say that Tessa was your type? I can just pretend to be her. You toldthat we looked somewhat alike. I can copy her style, her makeup, and her hairstyle.
"I can change anything as long as you'd like it. So, could you please not pushaway?" Recalling everything that had happened last night, Zachary hesitated.
Wendy really did look a lot like Tessa last night.
Seeing that he had fallen silent, Wendy grabbed his hand and began swaying it gently. Softening her voice, she coyly continued, "Didn't you enjoy yourself last night, Zachary?" In a low voice, she then begged, "I'm willing to act as Tessa's substitute if you allowto stay by your side." No man would be able to stand seeing a woman beg and plead so humbly. Not to mention, the woman before him was beautiful and had loved him wholeheartedly. Zachary massaged his temples and took a deep breath. He had missed Tessa so much. It made him feel like he was on the verge of losing his mind after not seeing her for so many days.
When Wendy had leaned in to kiss him, pressing her body against his, he had given in. He had even thought that he still had a substitute that looked like Tessa even if he couldn't have the actual person.
From that day on, Wendy stayed by Zachary's side.
He had to admit that she played her role well. Just as she had promised, she began copying Tessa's style and makeup and even started using Tessa's perfume.
Zachary loved to hug Wendy from behind, taking in her scent. Their silhouettes were nearly identical, and even their fragrances were the same. This illusion made him deliriously happy.
So, he began deceiving himself and slowly grew addicted to the lie he had created.
However, a substitute would forever be that. Wendy would never replace the weight Tessa held in his heart. She would never be able to becTessa.
Zachary was sitting on the couch, enjoying the intoxicating atmosphere around him as his longing for Tessa began to grow uncontrollably.
He could only drown himself in alcohol to numb the pain in his heart.
Suddenly, someone exclaimed, "Wait, take a look at Twitter. There's tea." At first, he had ignored them as he had no interest in such gossip.
It was only when he heard Stephen's nthat he turned around. He looked at his friends sharply, questioning, "What did you just say about Stephen?" A woman looked up, answering, "There's a scandal about him being in a relationship with Nancy Lloyd. You should take a look at Twitter. The paparazzi had caught them entering a hotel together.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"There's even an insider scoop claiming that the two of them are dating. Nancy is an A-list celebrity. This is big news!" Jodie chimed in, "Isn't Stephen supposed to be Nancy's fiance? Why is he..." Before she could finish her words, she trailed off and looked at Zachary meaningfully. "Zachary, you're closer to Tessa. Has she broken up with Stephen?" Wendy's expression tensed, and her complexion paled under the dim lights.
She subconsciously raised her voice, denying, That's impossible! sible The two of them are doing fine, and they are Rareo about to get married soon. You must be mistaken." fo She was so close to succeeding.
Zachary was already addicted to her body. Once she was pregnant with his child, she'd be able to secure her place as his wife and marry into the Gomez family. She would not allow something to go wrong at such a critical stage.
Tessa and Stephen could not break up. She would not allow Tessa to give Zachary another chance.
"Here, take a look at it yourself, Wendy. Everything has been written properly in the news. We aren't lying," Jodie clarified as she handed Wendy her phone. Before Wendy could take it, Zachary had snatched the phone away.
