The Night I Let Go novel Chapter 55

After parting ways with Ellen, Zachary went to the office.

When he wasn't busy, Zachary would reply secretly to Ellen's messages.

In the past, Ellen would also frequently message him, but he would only reply selectively. Sometimes, he did not reply at all.

However, their relationship was different now.

When he saw Ellen's messages, he would reply at once.

Even if he was busy, he would get up and go to the restrooms so that he could reply to her in secret.

The male colleague who sat next to him teased him about it and asked if Zachary had weak kidneys that caused him to go to the restrooms all the time.

At lunchtime, while everyone was at the cafeteria, Zachary slipped quietly into Anya's office.

"What are you doing here?" Anya's expression immediately turned cold when she saw him.

Zachary was startled. "Didn't you tell me to eat lunch with you everyday from now on?"

"That was in the past! Now you have a girlfriend, how can you come and eat lunch with me? Aren't you afraid that she'll get jealous? Are you planning to have us both at the same time?" Anya spoke sharply in a mocking tone.

Zachary's brow furrowed. He felt that she was right.

Therefore, he turned to leave the office.

"Where are you going?" When Anya saw that Zachary was about to leave without saying anything, she became agitated.

Zachary stopped and turned to say, "I think that you're right. I shouldn't eat with you behind my girlfriend's back!"

"You…" Anya was stumped.

Before she could recover, Zachary had walked out of the CEO's office.

"Jerk!" A fountain pen that cost a five-figure sum was hurled after him, and it smacked hard against the heavy wooden door of the CEO's office.

Sarah was secretly relieved that she had managed to escape, but she immediately became nervous again when she heard Anya tell her to stop.

She smiled stiffly and asked with a piteous expression on her face, "Is there anything else, Ms. Wayne?"

Anya looked thunderous as she said, "My fountain pen is broken! Deduct the cost of this from Zachary's pay!"

"He should pay! Go and tell him right now!"

Sarah's heart skipped a beat, and she hastily nodded in agreement.

"Alright. You may go!" Anya looked slightly happier, and Sarah beat a hasty retreat.

She went to the cafeteria at once and found Zachary eating lunch there. She told him that he was about to lose half a year's pay.
