Lenora paused for a moment. “No, whenever I have time, I’ll still visit Grandma at the Fuller residence.” 

“Why did you suddenly decide to establish that shoddy charity foundation?” 

Confronted by Zachary’s interrogation, Lenora remained unperturbed. “I simply thought that the money served no real purpose in my hands; it would be better to donate it to those in need.” 

Back in her childhood, she was considered a throwaway child. Not too long ago, she learned about Jasmine’s identity, which instantly triggered certain memories from her past, vivid as if they were happening right before her eyes. 

Coincidentally, she was looking to dispose of the assets she held. Therefore, it was only logical that she went on to establish a foundation. 

No matter what, Zachary simply refused to believe her explanation. 

He looked at Lenora with a cold gaze. “Once you’ve donated all your assets, will you leave here?” 

Lenora was at a loss for words. 

She truly thought so. 

At that time, she still had some scenes left to shoot. During this period, she was working on selecting an appropriate vice president and other management personnel for the foundation, aiming to get it up and running. 

Once her role in the play was over, she was free to leave, to go anywhere she desired. 

Once upon a time, she could have given up everything for Zachary. 

Now, she could also let go of Zachary for the sake of her future life. 

Observing Lenora’s guilty demeanor, as if she’d been struck to her core, Zachary ran his tongue over his molars. A surge of uncontrollable anger welled up within him, half erupting like a volcano. A thick fog of rage shrouded his entire heart, casting it into darkness. 

His eyes were shrouded in darkness as he gazed downward. “Why the sudden decision to leave? Is it because of Johanne’s case? What if he wasn’t the mastermind behind your father’s death? Would you still blame me, then?” 

Without a shred of doubt, Lenora knew that if she dared to say “no,” Zachary would have the audacity to fabricate evidence to exonerate Johanne. 

As Lenora met Zachary’s gaze, which was as deep as a serene pool, a shiver ran down her spine. She held her breath. “I never intended to leave.” 

During the period right after her divorce, when she was traveling abroad, she had personally experienced Zachary’s stubbornness. 

She repeatedly drove him away, yet he persistently followed her.

If he was unwilling, no matter where she went, he would always find her. 

So, if she wanted to leave, she absolutely needed a meticulous plan. 

Before all this, she needed to secure Zachary’s trust. 

“Really?” Zachary raised an eyebrow at her, his gaze sharp, as if he could peer into her very soul.

Lenora calmly nodded. “If I wanted to leave, I could have easily sold off my assets quietly and disappeared into thin air instead of setting up some foundation with much fanfare, waiting for you to catch me.” 

In truth, the foundation was established because she was unwilling to hold onto that sum of money. 

It was hard to pinpoint why, but it seemed like this sum of money was somehow connected to her father’s death. 

Zachary seriously pondered Lenora’s words, giving her a look that was neither smiling nor naive. He spoke with profound meaning. “That’s good, then. Nora, if there ever comes a day when you want to leave me…” 

“What then?” 

“You better drop that thought early on. I won’t let you leave,” Zachary said, his gaze unfathomable. 

He couldn’t bear to part from her. 

If he let her go, who would grant him the same mercy? 

If Lenora were to vanish from his life, he was uncertain what he would become. 

Lenora was taken aback. 

“Nora, why have you suddenly decided to set up this foundation?” Zachary asked, raising an eyebrow. 

Lenora averted her gaze, a faint redness appearing in the corners of her eyes. “Not long after I arrived in Jeahron, the thought struck me. Running into an old acquaintance reminded me of the time when I was a throwaway child during my younger years…” 

Zachary knew that the “old acquaintance” she mentioned was Jasmine. Dispelling his doubts, he quickly comforted her, “Nora, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have brought up your painful past. The hardest days are behind you. No matter what you want to do in the future, I’ll support you. As for the old acquaintance, they’re not necessary in your life. Don’t dwell on it.” 

To Lenora, Jasmine was much like Tamara was to him. She could be there or not. It didn’t make much of a difference. 

“I understand. I’m just feeling a bit sentimental.” Lenora lowered her eyes, turning the tables. “But why would you think that me starting a foundation means I’m leaving because of Johanne’s situation? If you’re so sure he’s not the mastermind, you should be confident in finding evidence to prove it. Or is it because you know that Johanne’s case is hopeless deep down?” 

“No. It’s just that I was terrified of you leaving.” 

“But a few days ago, you asked me to trust you, to give you time, and I agreed,” Lenora said, pinching her thigh harshly, wiping the corner of her eyes. “You don’t care about my feelings at all. You only care about

yourself.”

Zachary panicked. “Nora, I’m sorry. Please don’t cry. I do care about your feelings. It’s just that I…” 

He spread his arms, embracing Lenora. “I simply cannot live without you… I promise you I will never doubt you again in the future.” 

“I won’t believe your words.” Lenora glared at him. “You’ve said before that you wouldn’t bother me anymore, but not once did you keep your promise.” 

Lenora realized a long time ago that some of Zachary’s words were just hot air; they were to be heard, not taken seriously. 

With a sheepish grin, Zachary lowered his head, planting a gentle kiss on Lenora’s face. “For my wife,” he said, “nothing is too much.” 

“You really have no shame,” Lenora said, furrowing her brows. 

Zachary gazed at Lenora’s disgusted little expression, finding it more endearing the more he looked. He planted a kiss on her face, whispering in a low voice, “How about coming upstairs with me tonight?” 

Lenora glared at him. “Off you go. I’ve been tired all day. I’m going home to rest.” 

She pushed Zachary away and moved forward to open the door. 

Zachary was just about to catch up with his strides. 

With a thud, the door was shut. 

Zachary paused in his tracks, staring at the door before him. He touched his nose and called out, “Nora, take a good rest. I’m heading upstairs now.” 

Within the room, Lenora met Sophia’s gaze and guiltily averted her eyes, changing the subject. “Soph, you’re still awake?” 

Sophia was comfortably seated on the couch. Earlier, she had intended to take out the trash, but hearing a noise outside the door halted her in her tracks. Glancing at the electronic screen, she saw two people embracing each other. This sight made her retreat back to her previous position. 

Sophia looked at Lenora, her face bearing the expression of someone who had done something wrong. “I’ll go to sleep soon. By the way, how’s your charity foundation coming along? Do you have some free time in the next couple of days?”
