Fated love: the unwanted bride
Chapter 1032 - Chapter 1032 Chapter 1032 Slapping Him for the Second Time

Chapter 1032: Chapter 1032: Slapping Him for the Second Time Chapter 1032: Chapter 1032: Slapping Him for the Second Time “You seem quite self-righteous,” Ann Nolan said calmly. “I’ll say it again, there’s nothing between Evan Guerrero and me.”

Perhaps after venting, Zaiden Santos’s emotions had calmed down significantly from the beginning.

Ann Nolan knew that every time they argued, she was no match for him.

He could torture her thoroughly, while she couldn’t hurt him at all.

If hearts were laid open, hers had long been riddled with holes, whereas he still appeared perfectly fine.

She didn’t know how she had come to live like this, as it was not like this before they were married.

She had thought that marrying the man she loved would add icing to the cake and make things better.

But she hadn’t expected it was just the beginning of a nightmare…

“Nothing at all but still tugging and pulling? Ann Nolan, let’s put this behind us. I can turn a blind eye. But from now on, don’t see Zachary Santos again,” he said.

“You really are unreasonable,” Ann Nolan replied, laughing out of frustration. “But what can I do if I no longer want to live with you?”

“Don’t be willful!”

“Have you ever seen me being willful? I am very serious. I’ve always been very serious, and it is only you who have taken it as a joke, thinking I am just trying to catch your attention.”

Ann Nolan’s face bore a mocking smile, while Zaiden Santos’s expression remained grim.

Having been together so long, he still didn’t understand her character.

She really wouldn’t joke about something like a divorce.

“I will pretend I didn’t hear that. I have already torn up the divorce agreement. I promise you, I will spend more time with you, I will give you whatever you want. Is that okay?” Zaiden Santos looked at her, his eyes showing a trace of uncertainty.

Mr. Santos, who always prided himself on his talent, rarely spoke to others in a conciliatory tone.

Ann Nolan’s dark and shiny eyes looked at him, her pupils deep and profound.

“Give me some time, let me finish the Finance Street project,” Zaiden Santos added, “You don’t know what this project means to me.”

Ann Nolan didn’t speak; she didn’t want to ask.

“Let’s go home. Do you know what it feels like to have a dead heart? It’s probably feeling indifferent and uninterested when hearing any news about him,” said Ann Nolan lightly. “Are you truly unwilling to sign?”

“I told you it’s impossible!”

“Then don’t blame me,” Ann Nolan maintained her calm demeanor.

“Ann Nolan, what are you planning to do?” Zaiden Santos’s pupils slightly shrank.

“Let’s end things amicably. I will clarify everything to Grandfather Santos, don’t worry. I won’t mention Harper Glorian. As for whom Grandfather Santos believes, that is his business,” she said.

Ann Nolan knew that men cared about face, especially in front of their own family.

Zaiden Santos had always been viewed as an outstanding grandson by Grandfather Santos, a favored child of the heavens.

She wouldn’t mention any of his faults; it was all part of parting amicably.

“Are you determined to divorce me? Ann Nolan, acting like this, how can I believe that you haven’t had an affair with Zachary Santos? Huh?” Zaiden Santos exclaimed angrily.

He grabbed her wrist and tightened his grip!

“I’ve said there’s nothing! Let go of me, damn it!”

Ann Nolan raised her hand and slapped Zaiden Santos again!

“Slap!”

That was the second time she had slapped him.

Perhaps this was her last resort in defending herself, as insignificant as an ant.

Ann Nolan’s eyes were bloodshot as she stared intensely at Zaiden Santos.

Similarly, in the darkness, Zaiden Santos’s eyes were also bloodshot!

Neither of them was willing to back down, their gazes locked, the air filled with the thick smell of gunpowder.

The atmosphere was very tense.

Ann Nolan could feel the fiery pain in the palm of her hand; she had used all her strength in that slap.

In the moonlight, she saw Zaiden Santos’s face turn red.
