No Remarriage: You Don't Deserve Me (Lenora and Zachary)

Chapter 101 Fond Of The New

Zachary looked at Charles. "I'm very sure. I've already made up my mind."

Charles pursed his lips. "So, do you love her?"

Zachary could tell that the "her" Charles was referring to was Lenora.

His eyes flickered slightly. "I'm not sure, but I do know one thing, and that is, I don't want to divorce her. I'm sure I'll regret it if I do."

"Perhaps you've just grown accustomed to this marriage. Once you're divorced and return to singlehood, given some time, you'll be all right."

Zachary gazed out the window, remaining silent.

He seemed to have completely disregarded Charles' words.

Charles let out a sigh, unsure if it was out of surprise or out of pity for Susanna.

"Did Susanna agree to part ways with you?"

Zachary furrowed his brows, replying in a subdued tone, "She doesn't have a choice."

Charles looked at him, unsure whether to label him as cold and unfeeling.

He and Susanna share so many years of affection for each other, and yet those couldn't withstand a mere three years of marriage to Lenora. I guess it's true people are fond of the new and tired of the old Aware that further words would be pointless, Charles turned and left.

Zachary stood by the window for a while before he finally turned around and returned to the private

Inside the room, several rounds of poker had already been played. Lenora sat at the table, her legs together, with cards dealt out in front of her. She was about to reach for her cards. Seeing Zachary enter, Finn joked with a smile, "Zack, you won't believe it, Nora's quite the card shark. She's won every hand so far."

With a faint smile gracing his face, Zachary took a seat behind Lenora.

She turned her head to glance at him, "Zack, it's your turn to play."

Zachary shook his head. "No need, you can continue."

Finn glanced at him, then at Lenora, and chuckled. "Nora, you two should stop being so polite with each other. Does it matter who plays? The money isn't split, is it?"

Zachary merely gave a faint smile, his gaze settling on Lenora.

She continued to play cards, but her luck took a turn for the worse this round and she ended up losing

As soon as Zachary arrived, it was as if he had sucked away all her luck, and she suffered several consecutive losses.

Finn retrieved all the cards and put them into the automatic card shuffler. He looked up at Zachary with a half-smile, saying, "Zack, I think you'd better head out, You're distracting Nora from performing well." Zachary merely smiled and said nothing else.

Lenora pinched his fingers. "How about you play instead?"

"You can continue playing."

"I'm certain I'll lose a lot of money."

"No worries. Even if you do, that's just a few bucks."

Finn laughed. "Exactly, Nora. Zack has plenty of money. You don't need to worry for him."

Left with no other choice, Lenora could only continue.

Michael, who was next to them, stood up and said to Zachary, "I'm going to the restroom. Can you cover for me?"

Zachary nodded, not expressing any refusal.

Michael left the private room and went straight to the restroom.

Zachary took Michael's seat, his slender fingers reaching out and effortlessly picking up the cards dealt to him, flipping a corner of it to take a peek.

This round, Lenora was still having a streak of bad luck. The cards in her hand were just not that great. On the surface, she remained calm and unflustered, but inside, anxiety was creeping in. Her fingers slowly traced the edges of the cards. "Raise," Zachary uttered, calling for an increase in bet.

Lenora's eyes lit up in surprise, as Zachary seemed so confident that one player folded his cards, giving up the chance to win.

She quickly called the new bet amount to continue playing the current hand.

After another round, Zachary raised the bet again, this time compelling Finn to fold his cards.

"Call!" Lenora raised an eyebrow at him, flashing a grin as she matched his raised bet.

Finding it odd, Finn took a look at Zachary. Yet, in the last round, the latter gave up his chance of winning by calling out, "Fold."

benora placed the cards in her hand face down on the table and declared, "I won!"

"No way!" Finn seemed to have realized something. "Zack, did you actually deliberately raise the bet to make us fold our cards so that she can win?"

Taken aback, Lenora gave Zachary a glance.

I thought it was all pure coincidence, but it turns out he deliberately let me win, huh?

"Nothing of the sort," Zachary denied.

Finn didn't listen and reached his hand out, trying to flip open Zachary's cards.

However, Zachary was quick to act, pushing his cards into the mucked pile.

Judging from his reaction, anyone could tell what was going on.

Finn protested, "No way, this round doesn't count! You guys are cheating!"

Zachary chuckled lightly, ignoring him and instead turning to look at Lenora. "It's getting late, shall we head back?"

"All right."

"Are you not playing anymore?" Finn asked.

"Let's meet another day. You guys go ahead and play. Today's tab is on me."

After exchanging greetings with the others, Zachary took Lenora's hand and departed together.

The two were waiting for the elevator when, at that moment, a few individuals approached from not too far away. The one leading the group wasn't very tall and had a prominent belly. Upon seeing Zachary, he walked over with a smile on his face, greeting, "Mr. Fuller," Zachary's expression remained unchanged even after seeing the approaching figure. "Mr. Carston."

Kieran Carston said, "I didn't expect to run into you here, Mr. Fuller, What a coincidence."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Kieran smiled, saying, "I owe you one for taking care of Susanna and splurging quite a bit for her birthday banquet, Mr. Fuller. Is she still on set filming?"

Zachary simply nodded, not offering any response.

It was clear he didn't want to elaborate on Susanna's affairs.

Kieran cast a glance at Lenora beside him, tentatively saying, "So many years have passed in the blink of an eye. I still remember Susanna as a child, with her two pigtails, calling me Uncle Kieran. She's not young anymore but is always busy with acting. Other girls her age already have children."

"Everyone has their own ambitions," Zachary said, his tone nonchalant.

Kieran noticed that Zachary was reluctant to mention Susanna. He shifted his gaze to the calm and collected Lenora next to him. "Mr. Fuller, who might this be?" Zachary simply introduced. "She's Lenora,"

Kieran was hit by a sudden realization and immediately burst into laughter. "Ms. Wilkin, I've long heard of your reputation. I'm so pleased to meet you today."

As he spoke, his gaze briefly swept over the intertwined hands of the two.

Lenora replied modestly, "Not at all."

Despite sensing Kieran's scrutinizing gaze, she managed to keep a smile on his face.

She knew that Kieran was Susanna's uncle.

From what she understood, the Carston family had also amassed their wealth through business. Initially, they held no significant standing in Jacaster, but over the years, their frequent business dealings with Fuller Group had allowed them to build a considerable network. Gradually, the Carston family had managed to establish a firm foothold in Jacaster, ascending into the ranks of the elite.

Just then, the elevator chimed, and the doors opened.

"Mr. Fuller, please proceed."

Zachary led Lenora into the corner of the elevator, gently draping his arm around her shoulders.

Kieran glanced at him, chuckling as he said, "Isn't Ms. Wilkin also twenty-five this year? Do you have a significant other yet? How about I introduce someone to you?"

Lenora was about to speak when Zachary interrupted, "No need to trouble yourself, Mr. Carston.

Kieran seemed to understand something and fell silent.

After parting ways with Zachary, Kieran stood there for a while. His assistant scurried over and said, "Mr. Carston, I've found out that Mr. Fuller isn't here for any formal engagements today. He's just meeting up with a few friends." Kieran asked, "A few of his friends, huh?"

The assistant nodded. "Yes."

Kieran uttered, "Let's head back."

He wouldn't be concerned if Zachary had brought Lenora to meet his business partners.

What he feared was that Zachary had brought Lenora to meet his friends.

He had known for a while that the Fuller family had an adopted daughter. However, she was a low-key character, rarely interacting with people within their social circle, and had no share in the Fuller family's wealth, so he had never paid her much attention. The other time Zachary and Lenora made headlines, Kieran learned from his younger brother that the two shared a harmonious relationship. At that time, he just assumed it was the media making baseless

Tumors.

Upon their encounter that day, however, he realized that Zachary's attitude toward Lenora was anything but ordinary.

Kieran felt a strong sense of crisis:
