His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 139

Even though Zion was friends with Zachary, he couldn't stand the way Zachary pretended to be the devoted man whilst simultaneously juggling multiple women.

Zion couldn't agree more when people said that men were born actors.

Zachary might not have been acting this way out of love for Tessa. He was probably just putting on a show, trying to use her sympathy to win her back.

As for Wendy, Zion had nothing but contempt for her.

Back then, she knew full well that Zachary was Tessa's boyfriend, yet she still shamelessly clung to him.

She played the mistress on purpose, so it wasn't like she was any better.

With that thought in mind, Zion had no trouble speaking his mind. If he could make Wendy jealous and uncomfortable, then why not? She had it coming anyway.

Zion said calmly, "He's probably doing this because of Tessa. You know how it is—Tessa has a fiancé now, and they really love each other. Zachary just can't accept it.

"I have no idea what got into him last night, but he suddenly wandered around outside for hours like a madman. Then, he collapsed."

He let out a dramatic sigh, pretending to be heartbroken. "Can you believe it? He almost died! If a passing driver hadn't spotted him and rushed him to the hospital, we would've lost him for good."

As Zion spoke, he sneaked a glance at Wendy's expression.

Her face went completely pale, and she murmured, "Because of Tessa?"

Zion sighed. "Yeah. Don't you think he's just being ridiculous? He only realized what he had after he lost it."

Wendy was so furious that her whole body shook. Her voice rose as she snapped, "Are you telling me he was throwing his life away for Tessa?"

A nurse walking by shot her a disapproving look. "Miss, this is a hospital. Please keep your voice down."

Wendy's pale face flushed red with anger. She shoved the ward door open. "Zachary, what the hell are you up to?"
