Forced Into Marriage: My Husband’s Too Mean novel Chapter 459

Ann seemed to be so generous to help Lindsey come up with an excuse. Her teary face made her seem more pitiful. Unfortunately, the man beside her did not care about her.

Zayn just kept looking at Lindsey without saying anything.

Who knew that after Ann said that, Lindsey folded her arms together and looked at her coldly. She said word by word, “No, I did it on purpose.”

After that, Lindsey took a step forward and closed the distance between the three of them, with a clear stubbornness in her eyes.

"Ms. Ann, do you want me to apologize to you?" Lindsey asked.

Ann froze and did not know what Lindsey meant by this, but looking at Zayn next to her, she still gritted her teeth and said, "Ms. Juhl, you’ve pushed me, so shouldn't you apologize?"

Lindsey laughed lightly and lowered her head. When she lifted her head again, there was a touch of madness in her eyes. "Come over and I’ll apologize to you."

Ann knew that Lindsey was not easy to deal with, but bystanders were watching, so she thought about it and took a step forward.

What everyone did not expect was that after Ann walked forward, she was welcomed with a fierce slap on her cheek.

Ann was dumbfounded and froze in place. The bystanders also did not expect Lindsey to hit her and gasped. Hearing the gasps around her, Lindsey clenched her fingers and her eyes turned colder. However, there was no other emotion on her face.

The spot that Lindsey hit Ann on swelled up quickly and looked quite horrifying. Ann’s beautiful face suddenly swelled up like a pig's head.

Zayn's expression changed slightly, but his eyes were not as gloomy as earlier.

"This is my apology." After Lindsey said this, she did not even look at Ann and Zayn before she walked past the two like a graceful white swan with her head held high.

Ann was still thinking about that slap from Lindsey. When she came back to her senses, she found that Lindsey had already walked away. She was furious and shouted, "Lindsey Juhl! You..."

"Calm down." The cold male voice beside her was like a bucket of cold water that drenched her from head to toe and made her heart cold.

She then realized that Zayn was still next to her. The twisted resentment earlier immediately turned into a grievance. "She hit me..."

"Mm." Zayn nodded. "I saw."

"Then...then you..." Ann wanted to say something.

However, Zayn did not want to listen to her and glanced at her coldly. "I told you not to disturb them."

Yes. Ann recalled that Zayn had indeed said something like that. What he said then was that he could try to date her, but only if she did not disturb Lindsey and the child.

Ann thought at the time that this was simply a bullsh*t statement. As long as Lindsey still cared about it, there was no way she would not feel disturbed. Ann never thought that the "disturbance" that Zayn meant was a physical disturbance.

"But she hit me..." Ann could not suppress her anger and her eyes were full of hatred.

Zayn turned to look at her face. "If others didn’t provoke her first, she usually wouldn’t be the first person to make a move."

After saying that, Zayn's eyes narrowed gently and Ann actually saw a hint of threat in them.

She sneered in her heart. Was Zayn saying this to warn her? Did this mean that he still could not forget about Lindsey?

The orphanage had not changed much since the last time she was here. Lindsey stood at the entrance for a while as the sun set, casting a warm orange glow on the entrance of the orphanage.

Lindsey could not help but take a few steps closer. Although it was not the same as when she had lived there as a child, she still wanted to come and see it every time she felt she could not stay strong.

The first warm and fuzzy moments of her life, as well as the small moments of happiness that she missed, happened in this place. This place also laid the groundwork for the most significant sorrows and joys of her life.

Lindsey thought that she was so easily satisfied when she was young. At that time, as long as she had enough to eat and wear, and someone to play with, she could be happy all day.

Her side profile was tinted a faint red by the setting sun, but there was no light under her eyes.

A high-pitched voice came from not far away, "Hey! It's you again?"

Lindsey turned to look over. The security guard came out from the guard booth at the entrance and took a few steps closer. "It's been a long time since you've been here. Did you encounter some problems again?"

She looked at the enthusiastic guard in front of her and did not want to say more. She simply smiled and shook her head.

The guard smiled back and asked, "Still not going in?"

"No." Lindsey tightened the bag in her hand. "I’ll just stay out here."

She did not want to go in so that she did not have to face those shattered memories and the harsh reality. She had worked so hard, yet her life was still a mess.

Lindsey knew that she was being cowardly.
