Chapter 434 Mr. Murray, I'm going to put you to sleep!

With a blank expression, Zackary removed Lola's hand, "Lola, I have things to do. You should rest early."

Something's up! Something's up! Something's up!

Whenever he was with her, he was in trouble!

Lola's face was contorted to the extreme, her heart twisted and oozing dark venom. No matter how much resentment and hatred she harbored, she couldn't let her facade crumble. She had to continue pretending to be gentle and kind in front of Zackary.

She lifted her face, looking at him pitifully, "Zackary, you just said that you would take a bath with me, you can't go back on your word."

"Lola...."

Before Zackary could even speak, Lola, tears streaming down her face, blurted out, "Zackary, you always deliberately push me away. You don't like me at all, do you?"

"I knew, you only had my sister in your heart. I was defiled by Ralph and Kaleb, you thought I was dirty, Zackary. I don't blame you, I really don't blame you, because even I, despise myself for being dirty."

"In the midnight reverie, I woke up countless times from nightmares. I heard everyone calling me dirty, so very dirty. Zack, how could I ever be worthy of you!"

"Lola, I didn't think you were dirty."

Seeing Lola in this state, Zackary couldn't help but feel guilty. She was his lifesaver, and in his eyes, all the hardships she had endured were because of him. Naturally, he couldn't bear to see her in such a state of self-destruction.

"But Zackary, you wouldn't even touch me, yet you were willing to touch my sister! Zackary, I know, I shouldn't be jealous of my sister, but every time, seeing you get close to her, my heart would ache as if being cut by a knife, it was worse than death."

"Zackary, please, can you stop making me feel this way?"

"Lola, I'm sorry." Zackary numbly pulled Lola into his arms, he knew well that he shouldn't be attracted to Penelope, a woman with a heart of stone and lungs of brass. He should cherish Lola, his lifesaver. But sometimes, he simply couldn't control his own heart.

Forcing himself not to think about Penelope's infuriating face anymore, Zackary held Lola tightly and continued to speak, "Lola, I will treat you well."

"Zackary...."

The sadness on Lola's face gradually faded away, replaced by an indescribable charm.

"Zackary, did you know, I've always been extremely scared, scared that one day you would leave me. I always felt that everything I have now is extremely unreal, as if, you could abandon me at any moment."

"Zackary, could you make me truly feel that you were right by my side?"

Lola cast her eyes down slightly. The moment she lowered her head was truly filled with shyness. "Zackary, can... can we take a bath together tonight? I know, it's really improper for me to say this, but what can I do, Zackary, I really love you so much."

"I was willing to give you everything I had, Zackary. In this life, I only wanted to be marked by you. Please, don't reject me anymore. Your constant rejection made me feel worthless, like trash that could be discarded at will. Zackary, I beg you, let me experience what it's like to be loved by you, okay?"

Lola gently nestled in Zackary's arms, feeling his arm around her suddenly tighten, the corners of her lips couldn't help but subtly lift.

She knew, Zackary was the typical type who responded to gentleness rather than force. This time, she lowered herself so much, she portrayed herself as so pitiful, and he was always one to value gratitude and kindness, there was no way he could push her away.

"Zackary, let's go to the bathroom. If we don't go in now, the water will get cold. Zackary, tonight, I will take good care of you."

"We...we...mandarin ducks...mandarin ducks...played in the water."

After saying this, Lola once again assumed an incredibly shy demeanor, bashfully lowering her face.

Thinking of the upcoming passionate scene of the two in the water, Lola's little face quickly heated up. In the blink of an eye, it was already a flush of crimson.

"Lola...."

So immersed was she in this enchanting illusion that upon hearing Zackary's deep and mellow voice, her body trembled softly, as if electrified.

Men couldn't help but be attracted to women, and women to men as well.

In front of Zackary's stunning beauty, Lola really couldn't hold herself together.

She slowly lifted her face, her eyes filled with the softness of spring, brimming with deep affection, "Zackary..."

Zackary was really tall, nearly 1.9 meters. Lola had to lift her face, unable to see his entire face, only able to see his thin lips.

It was so beautiful!

Lola couldn't help but swallow, thinking that he would crazily lift her up and rush to the bathroom next. However, to her surprise, the next second, he pushed her away with an impassive expression.

"Lola, I had some matters to deal with, I didn't come over tonight, you went to wash by yourself."

After saying this, Zackary didn't hesitate for a moment. He quickly opened the door of the guest room and walked out.

"Zackary!"

Lola hurriedly chased after him, however, she failed to catch up with Zackary. Instead, when she rushed to the door, she almost got hit in the face by the door that was being slammed shut.

She desperately wanted to rush out and pull him back, but at that moment, she was wearing too little. She was afraid of being seen by others, so she ultimately did not chase after him immediately.

Staring fixedly at the tightly closed door in front of her, Lola's face had turned extremely unsightly.

Washed by oneself...

What she wanted was a romantic bath together! How could it be considered a romantic bath if she bathed by herself?!

The more Lola thought about it, the angrier she became. She grabbed a vase from the room and smashed it hard on the floor.

"Penelope! Penelope! It's all your fault! I will make you pay! I will definitely make you pay!"

Just now in the elevator, when Everett mentioned taking Penelope back to the room for a bath later, many impure images flashed through Zackary's mind.

In fact, the relationship between Everett and Penelope was truly pure.

What he referred to as taking a bath, was her soaking in a medicinal bath.

Tonight, in her rush to get here, Penelope didn't soak in the medicinal soup at Xavier's place. Everett had prepared a packet of medicine, allowing her to soak in it here instead.

There were many separate rooms in the presidential suite, and naturally, Everett and Penelope were not in the same room.

Penelope had originally planned to go straight back to her room to make medicinal soup, but as soon as she entered the living room, Everett grabbed her wrist.

"Penelope, you were injured!"

Just as Penelope was about to say, "Everett, I'm fine, someone just grabbed me, I'm not that fragile," she saw that her wrist had swelled up a lot, much more frightening than what she had seen by the Stone of Eternity earlier.

"Penelope, I applied the medicine for you."

Penelope was not in good health at the moment, and wherever Everett went, he would carry a large bag of various backup medicines. She subconsciously wanted to pull her hand back, but he held her hand even tighter, giving her no chance to resist.

Having barely endured Everett's medication, he insisted on her eating something, and kept peeling apples for her.

Staring at each other in the living room, Penelope really felt extremely awkward. Thinking back to the magical item that Bexley gave her before she came over this afternoon, her eyes suddenly lit up.

She quickly pulled out a USB stick from her handbag and plugged it into the huge LCD player in the living room, "Everett, do you want to watch a movie? I recently found a movie that is really good!"

Bexley said that she had a mainstream positive energy movie in her USB drive. If she and Everett felt uncomfortable together, they could cultivate positive energy together, cleanse in the spring breeze of positive energy, avoid ambiguity, and their interaction would definitely be very relaxed.

After Penelope plugged in the USB drive, she was about to sit upright, waiting to be cleansed by the positive energy of the spring breeze, when she heard an extremely impure sound coming from the liquid crystal player.

"Mr. Murray, I am going to put you to sleep!"
