Way Back Into Love (Essie)

Chapter 115 Call Me Honey (Part One)

Essie didn't know if there was actually a ghost, but there was one thing she knew for certain: there was

a hidden secret in the yard.

As they walked towards the pavilion, they saw Daisy coming from the bamboo forest path. Ivy waved

her over, and they all sat around the stone table in the pavilion. Once they were settled down, they

asked the servants to bring them some afternoon tea.

"The moment Zac came back, the whole house became bustling with noise." An ironic smile appeared

on Daisy's face.

"I really can't stand Valery anymore. Is it such a big deal to be pregnant? Isabella already has three

sons, but Richard hasn't married her yet," Ivy said.

"I agree. I don't even know how she got pregnant. The woman Zac loves is none other than Leila." In

Daisy's eyes, Zac and Leila were perfect for each other.

"No. Zac is in love with Essie now. He has already moved on from Leila." Ivy made a face and stuck out

her tongue at Daisy. It seemed like they didn't agree with each other.

"I don't believe that he will let go of his relationship with Leila. They started dating in middle school, and

he loves Leila with all his heart. There are a lot of girls who have a crush on him, but he has never had

a relationship with any other girl. If it weren't for the conflict between the two families and Valery's

intervention, they would have gotten married already," said Daisy, not caring about how Essie would

feel.

After hearing what she said, Essie was calm. She knew that ice guy loved Leila, but she didn't intend to

fight with her. Her opponent was Valery. As long as Valery was beaten, she would be successful and

leave, letting Leila marry her lover and live together.

Ivy coughed to cover the awkwardness in the air and said, "Cousin, please take a look at the situation

clearly. Zac's only choices for his wife are Essie and Valery. Leila has no right to be his wife. If Zac

insists on being with Leila, not only would he have to give up his status as the crown prince of the

family, but he would also be betraying everyone in the family. He cannot afford to pay such a cruel

price. So don't cause any trouble. Just support Essie with me. It's far more realistic than supporting

Leila." Although Ivy was still young, she knew more about the family than any of her other siblings. This

was because her favorite past time was to hide herself in closets and eavesdrop on the adults' NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

conversations.

Hearing this, Daisy fell into silence. She had to admit that every word that Ivy said made sense and

there was no way to deny any of it. Leila and Zac could never be together.

Meanwhile, Essie was shocked by this new piece of information.

Was it really that serious?

Why would he be deprived of inheritance if he decided to marry Leila?

What kind of feud was there between Leila's family and Zac's family? Was it so bad that even their

descendants had to pay for it?

No wonder icy guy quarreled with Leila so often. They couldn't see a future for their love. They were

just like the beautiful flowers in the mirror—no matter how perfect they were, they couldn't hold each

other. It was just like that song from that famous TV drama that said, "I loved you from the wrong side,

and I lost my soul when I lost you."

They were in such a dilemma.

'Well, it seems like people become greedier the richer they become. It's a good thing that I am just an

ordinary person. This way, I have the freedom to love whoever I want and do whatever I want,' Essie

thought.

They girls chatted for a while, then they got up and went to the mansion.

Meanwhile, Zac had just come out of his father's room and was just about to look for Essie when he

saw Valery walking towards him with her big belly.

Zac turned around and tried to walk away from her. But Valery unexpectedly trotted over to him and

hugged him from behind. "Do you have any idea how much time I spent looking for you? Do you know

how much I love you? I am willing to die for you. Why did you have to bring that woman back here to

anger me? If it were not for the child, I would not have been able to continue living!"

Zac pulled her hands away from him coldly. If she hadn't been pregnant, he would have pushed her far

away.

"I only see you as my sister. That's all."

"I don't want to be your sister. I want to be your wife," she cried out.

"No way. Essie is the only one I want as my wife," Zac said firmly.

"What makes you think that she is better than me?" Valery was almost roaring, and her eyes looked

very fierce. Her delicate face had been distorted by her deep resentment.

"She is better than you, and only she has the right to touch me like that," Zac said every word clearly

and forcefully. His face was as cold as an iceberg. He had no expression at all.

Valery felt like she was on the verge of breaking down. It was all her fault. If she had just killed that

bitch back then, she wouldn't be in this situation now.

"I'm telling you, Zac, I'm not going to let you be with her for as long as I and my child are alive!" She

was so angry that her eyes were burning. As long as she was alive, she would never let him go.

"Zac!" They suddenly heard a sweet voice coming from the corridor, and Zac turned his eyes to look at

the beautiful woman. "You are back," he said. His charming smile melted away all the coldness on his

face, leaving nothing but endless tenderness.

The apparent change in Zac's facial expression caused a sharp pain in Valery's heart. "You are a

shameless bitch. Give my husband back to me!" she said to Essie.

"I think you should know this," Essie said as she walked up to Zac and looped her arm around his,

declaring her ownership.

"Let him go!" Completely out of her mind, Valery rushed forward and pushed Essie hard. But she

herself staggered back and almost fell down from the impact. Fortunately, Zac was quick to react and

he was able to grab her before she could fall.

"Valery, you'd better behave yourself. Don't forget what I told you last time," Zac warned her sharply.

Valery shivered. She didn't even dare to think about the terrible consequences those hit men had to

face.

Essie flicked her clothes as if she wanted to get rid of the dirt from Valery and said calmly, "Miss Valery,

calm down. You are pregnant right now. If you have a miscarriage, you will never be able to step foot in

this world for the rest of your life."

"You..." Valery was so furious that she couldn't get a single word out. She just raised her hand to cover

her belly.

When Elizabeth heard the commotion from downstairs, she came up at once and held her daughter.

"Zac, how could you let her bully Valery like this?"

"Aunt Elizabeth, you should know better than anyone what your daughter has done to Essie. I gave her

another chance to change for your sake and the baby's. Otherwise, do you think she'd still be standing

here and provoking us?" Zac said rather rudely. Elizabeth had intentionally not said a word about that

matter because she wanted to just let it go, but he couldn't turn a deaf ear to anything that was hurtful

to his woman.

Elizabeth's eyes twitched. "Valery just cares too much about you. If only you were willing to come back

to her and marry her, and stop hooking up with other women, then she wouldn't be so angry with you."

Zac pulled Essie into his arms, lowered his head, and gave her a gentle kiss on the forehead. "Aunt

Elizabeth, this woman is my wife. It won't be right for me to take care of a woman other than her. Don't

you know that?" It was obvious that Valery was the other woman he was talking about.
