Chapter 32\u00a0<\/p>\n
Genevieve saw through Raymond\u2019s intentions immediately. He was forcing her to spend time alone with Zachary.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the end, she softened and gave a slight nod.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After Raymond finished dinner and went back to his room, Zachary instantly put on a warm, affectionate smile.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He stood, poured her a glass of red wine, then set Genevieve\u2019s favorite lemon-butter sea bass neatly onto her plate.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cGen,\u201d he said, deliberately gentle. \u201cI was wrong before. I let that woman cloud my judgment, and I did a lot of things that hurt you. Believe me, I\u2019ll cut her off completely.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He looked at her as though he were playing the lead in a romance movie. \u201cLet\u2019s start over, okay? Grandpa\u2019s getting older. All he wants is a great-grandchild. Let\u2019s have a baby, so he can finally have some peace of mind.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Genevieve found him ridiculous. He really thought he was something.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Genevieve spoke flatly. \u201cZachary, I want a divorce. As for what you and Regina have been doing behind my back, I\u2019ll deal with both of you later.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The affection drained from his face as his mask fell, revealing the fury underneath.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t push it, Genevieve!\u201d he snarled, grabbing for her wrist. \u201cDo you think you\u2019ll have anything once you leave the Lambert family? Everything you have today came from the Lamberts!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
His fingers were a breath away from her skin when Genevieve\u2019s eyes sharpened. She rotated her wrist, caught his hand in a clean reversal, and clamped down precisely where it hurt most.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Zachary\u2019s wrist went numb, and his forward momentum was thrown off balance. Before he even understood what was happening, his world spun upside down.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Genevieve hoisted him over her shoulder in one smooth motion and slammed him into the floor.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The impact hit with a heavy thud. Zachary lay there, stunned and humiliated.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Genevieve straightened, withdrew her hand, and looked down at him without a flicker of emotion. \u201cTouch me again, and you\u2019ll regret it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cGenevieve!\u201d he roared.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She didn\u2019t even spare him a glance as she turned and walked up the stairs.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Zachary lunged after her on instinct, but when he reached the master bedroom, he heard the lock click into place.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She hadn\u2019t only hit him. She had also shut him out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The anger in his chest had nowhere to go-it swallowed him whole, hot enough to scorch.\u00a0<\/p>\n
His fists clenched until the veins stood out on the backs of his hands, but he still didn\u2019t dare pound on the door. Raymond had just fallen asleep, and waking him would only make everything worse.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Zachary spun on his heels, grabbed his car keys, and stormed out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He slammed the door, floored the accelerator, and disappeared into the night.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He needed an outlet.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Half an hour later, his car rolled into the underground garage of a high-end apartment building.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The window slid down. Regina leaned in, her makeup flawless, a sweet smile on her lips-deliberately dressed in a skimpy slip.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She climbed into the passenger seat and pouted. \u201cZach, you finally came to see me. I\u2019ve been waiting forever-\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Before she could finish speaking, Zachary grabbed her and dragged her close, all heat and impatience.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Zachary lost himself completely, driven by raw instinct as he used her to vent the anger and humiliation burning inside him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Regina stiffened at first, startled by the force of him. Then, just as quickly, she melted into it, wrapping her arms around his shoulders and pressing close, determined to pull his attention back to herself.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just as he reached his peak, he tightened his grip around her. Then, he suddenly thought of Genevieve\u2019s slim waist.\u00a0<\/p>\n
