No Remarriage for us Stay Away (Lenora and Zachary)

Chapter 495 Must Prevent The Birth

Isla began to recount her story.

That afternoon, she went to pick up Harrietta for lunch. Along the way, she asked Harrietta to call Zachary.

At first, Harrietta was reluctant, but eventually, she made the call.

Not only was Zachary slow to answer the phone, but his voice was far more hoarse than usual, which sounded a bit odd.

Isla didn't think much of it, but following that, she heard the broken voice of a woman panting and moaning on the phone, sounding extremely suggestive.

Zachary momentarily panicked, blurting out some words before promptly hanging up the phone.

His reaction only deepened Isla's suspicions. She was convinced he was with Lenora, possibly even sleeping with her.

That mere thought made her so furious she could have flipped the table then and there.

She immediately had someone investigate Zachary's whereabouts.

The detective relayed a message, informing her that Zachary left the company after clocking out at noon and was seen with a slim woman entering a hotel. A photograph was also sent over.

The photo was captured from surveillance footage, showing only the back view of the two individuals.

In the image, the woman affectionately held onto the man's arm as they entered the hotel together.

Sure enough, it was Lenora!

She had seen Lenora wearing that white dress back in Fairlake.

Isla's blood boiled, and her mind was buzzing, all sense of reason gone.

She had the detective infiltrate the hotel to find out Zachary's room number. Immediately after, she called the police, reporting that a prostitution transaction was taking place in a certain room of that hotel. The police had been dispatched.

Following the room number given by Isla, they rushed in but discovered the scene inside wasn't what they had expected.

This wasn't just an ordinary hotel room but a small conference room.

Placards were set out in front of the conference table, and every attendee was decked out in business suits, their expressions serious.

The police sensed something was off. Only after a conversation did they learn the Jacaster Trade Association's e-commerce committee was in the middle of an internal meeting.

Even though it was a social organization, the attendees were distinguished individuals.noveldrama

Due to the negligence of the hotel staff, who failed to inform the police in advance, such a misunderstanding occurred.

After apologizing, the police left and immediately pursued Isla's responsibility for making a false report.

Upon learning the results of the police investigation, Isla had yet to grasp the impending issues she was about to face. Instead, she questioned the police's impartiality.

All she wanted was to embarrass Zachary and Lenora in front of the police.

Even if the police investigation concluded that the two were not involved in solicitation and chose not to detain them, she wouldn't have said much more.

However, they claimed a meeting was in progress inside and accused her of misusing public resources by raising a false alarm, thus violating public order. That was utterly ridiculous!

The police were already in a bad mood at being taken for a ride. Hearing Isla question them only added fuel to the fire. Without hesitation, they located her via her number and caught her, intending to take her into custody for a five-day detention. Naturally, Isla was unwilling and hurriedly revealed her identity, using Matthew's name to pressure the police.

After a series of procedures, the matter did come before Matthew.

In the end, Isla wasn't detained, but Matthew was furious.

After understanding the situation, he spoke with Isla seriously, explaining that Zachary wasn't right for her.

Isla would not listen, nor was she willing to.

After the DNA test results of her and Harrietta came out, there was no turning back for her.

She was stubbornly persistent, convinced she would win over Zachary with time.

However, if she showed signs of pursuing him again, Matthew might have sent her back to her home country.

After hearing Illya's account, Alice fell silent for a few seconds before nodding gently. "Perhaps your Uncle Matthew is right," she said. "No matter how much effort you put in, Zachary will never be with you."

"Alice!" Isla exclaimed in shock. "Why would you say that? Are you not supporting me either?"

Alice replied, "It's not that I don't support you. It's just that I can't bear to see you get hurt, pouring all your heart and soul into a lost cause."

"How do you know I won't succeed?" Isla asked.

"Because Fay is pregnant."

"What did you say?!" Isla exclaimed in disbelief, her eyes wide open. Her hands, initially resting on her knees, suddenly clenched tight, her nails digging into the flesh of her palms.

"Fay is pregnant," Alice reiterated. "In

truth, she and Zachary have

reconciled. It's precisely due to that reconciliation that they chose to live separately. Fay's health is not the best, and it was no easy feat for her to get pregnant with this child. They pretended to break up for fear that you might target Fay."

Looking at the distraught expression on Isla's face, Alice continued, "I had someone investigate and just found out that Zachary accompanied

Lenora to her prenatal checkup an et

few days ago. They kept it a secret very well, clearly valuing this child. How could Zachary be with you? He doesn't love you at all. Once Lenora's child is born, I'm afraid

even Harrietta will have to step aside

for him."

Now, it's already challenging for me to use Harrietta to get close to Zachary, let alone after the birth of Lenora's child. I must prevent the birth of Lenora's child! Isla stared off into the distance, lost in her thoughts.

"No... I must prevent the birth of Lenora's child! Alice, you have to help me think of a solution," Isla exclaimed anxiously, gripping Alice's hand tightly.

"Isla, there are plenty of fish in the sea. Why are you so hung up on Zachary?" "There's no going back for me! I must have him. Please help me!" Isla pleaded.

A DNA test has already confirmed Harrietta is my child. If I back down now, the stigma of being an unwed mother will follow me forever, like a brand. Once I return to Fairlake,

people like Bella will surely mochet

and ridicule me. On the other hand, if

I reveal the truth, Zachary won't let me off the hook. Under my family's protection, Zachary might not be able to touch me. However, Father, Uncle Matthew, and Zephyr will certainly be deeply disappointed in me. Moreover, Father will surely force me into marriage.

"Since you're insistent, I'll lend you a hand. The most important issue now is preventing the birth of Lenora's child. Do you understand?" Alice stared into Isla's eyes, her gaze compelling.

"Yes, I know." Isla nodded hurriedly. "I'll arrange for someone to terminate her pregnancy right away."

"Hold on, Isla." Alice stopped her. "I learned that Zachary assigned two personal bodyguards to Lenora. Ordinary people can't get close to her. If we can't strike successfully at the first attempt, I'm afraid they won't give us a second chance. So, we must plan carefully." "What do you propose, then?"

After the events of the day, coupled with the news of Lenora's pregnancy, Isla's mind was in turmoil.

Alice fell silent momentarily, as if contemplating something.

After a long silence, she finally said, "Lenora and Sophia share a close bond. Since getting close to Lenora is challenging, perhaps we can approach this through Sophia."

"You mean..."

Alice leaned close to Isla's ear and whispered a few words.

"I got it, Alice. You're a genius. Thank you for helping me. I'll make the arrangements tomorrow!"

As long as money was involved, many people were willing to take risks.

Isla hired three men from the underworld. Each of them had done time, varying in length, and were ready to risk it all.

Their leader was referred to as Draco..

After ending the call with Isla, Draco received another call from an unknown number.

A pleasant female voice came through the other end of the line. "Did someone seek you out just now? I'll add an extra two hundred thousand. You guys continue with the task, only with one more step..."
