Chapter 3
The deep affection in his eyes instantly turned into disbelief and overwhelming panic.
Zachary wanted to grab my hand, but I dodged it.
“Stella, listen to me. Let me explain, I…”
The sudden ringing of the phone interrupted his words.
He glanced at his phone, furrowed his brow, hesitated for a while, and finally answered the phone.
call.
“Zachary, how much longer do you need? The baby is looking for you.”
Zachary looked at me. Seeing that I didn’t have much emotional change, he replied, “Right away.”
After hanging up, he stood up and said slightly anxiously, “Stella, be good and have your meal first. We can talk about it when I get back in the evening.”
As I watched his departing figure, I couldn’t suppress my feelings anymore, and tears welled up in
my eyes.
The rain stopped and the sky turned clear again, but my heart was still filled with dark clouds.
After taking a few bites of food, I decided to go home and pack my things.
Just as I entered the community, I saw Zachary’s car in front from a distance. However, when passing by my house, it didn’t stop but continued driving forward.
I followed him for some reason. His car stopped in front of a villa.
Zachary got out of the car with a little boy in his arms, and Amber was with him.
Two women ran out of the villa to greet them.
One was Bella Murphy, Zachary’s mother, and the other was Charlotte Kenneth. One was Bella Murphy, Zachary’s m

I quickly got the answer.
The little boy rushed towards Charlotte and called out in a sweet and childish voice, “Mommy.”
Charlotte was the daughter of Bella’s best friend. Bella liked her very much and hoped that she could marry Zachary.
However, Zachary did not like her.

In order to be with me, Zachary threatened to cut all the ties with Bella and not to take over the family business. Only then did Bella have to agree.
Therefore, I wasn’t familiar with Bella and Amber. We would only have one meal together every
year.
I used to want to improve the relationship between us, but Zachary said, “Stella, I know the personalities of my mom and my sister. I don’t want you to be wronged.”
I drove past their villa, and everyone was having a great time inside.
They were more like a real family.
Zachary seemed to sense something. He turned his head and met my eyes. I quickly departed.
I felt suffocated in my chest, unable to catch my breath, and a wave of bitterness swept over my
mouth.
Zachary once said I was his whole world, but it turned out I was just passing through his world.
After I returned home, I started packing my things. I suddenly realized that after living with him for

I burned all the family photos and the inseparable things.
In the end, I took one last look at the house where I had lived for seven years. But now there was not a trace of me left.
My heart was also emptied.
