Chapter 1668

Zayn was stunned when he heard such words. Zayn originally did not have a good impression of

Hector, and he was even more suspicious when he saw Hector's evasive behavior.

“Why?” asked Zayn.

“I don’t...don’t want to trouble him,” Hector said.

Zayn looked directly at Hector. “This matter has already become a sore point for Tessa. It has

already severely affected Tessa’s work and life. She has always been very afraid that it was

unable to settle and the case could not be won after taking it to court. Sebastian is going to take

charge and settle it for you guys now. Could it be that you have secrets that are difficult for you to

disclose?

Tessa persuaded Hector. “Dad, if Director Ford wants to settle this matter, then he will certainly

resolve it thoroughly! Why don’t you agree? What are you afraid of?”

Hector was hesitant to speak. In the end, he said in a disheartened manner, “Your mother

cheated on me. Who in this world is willing to publicly disclose the matter of being cheated on by

his wife?”

Zayn and Tessa were both speechless. Zayn still had suspicions. When he came over three days

ago, Hector was still very willing to settle the matter. He felt it was best for Hana to be charged

and imprisoned. In the end, once he heard that Sebastian was taking charge and settling the

matter, he did not agree anymore? Was Hector afraid that the matter of his wife cheating on him

would be made public or was he afraid of... Sebastian?

When Zayn found a window of opportunity, he pulled Hector aside., “Are you worried that the

thing you’ve done to US more than twenty years ago would be found out by others? That’s why

you ’re not willing to settle the matter? If that is the case, then you don’t have to worry! I have

said it before, for the sake of Tessa, I will never bring up the thing you’ve done back then again

in this life, so I will never do it.

Firstly, it was because you indeed love Tessa and is a qualified and good father. I also indeed do

not wish for Tessa to have any psychological burden. Another reason was that although you did

want to kill US back then, you did not go through with it in the end. This is no big deal. It’s fine as

long as you’ve turned over a new leaf.”

Hector kept thanking Zayn. “Thankyou, I...”

He was not afraid about the matter from twenty years ago. He was afraid because of Sebastian.

Although Hector has never met Sebastian and has never interacted with him, he still clearly

knew the deterrent power of Sebastian in South City. If Sebastian was to take charge and settle

this matter, then he certainly would get to the bottom of everything about this matter. Hector was

afraid that he could not bear the consequences when the time came.

“What’s the matter with you? Do you have some secrets that are difficult for you to disclose?”

asked Zayn doubtingly.

Hector was speechless. He felt that he was being forced and had a sense of foreboding.

“What are you afraid of?” Zayn asked again.

A person’s intuition was just so accurate sometimes. Zayn always felt that Hector was not very

upright. He always felt that Tessa’s mother, that lady named Hana Sharpe, was not as described

by Hector and Tessa at a glance. He always felt that there was something hidden in between all

this.

Being directly stared down by Zayn, Hector could only bite the bullet and agree. “Alright...

Alright.” of course, nothing could be better if Director Ford could take charge and settle this

matter.

“Alright, then you and Tessa get yourselves ready. I will drive over and pick you up after I have

returned and discussed a time with Sebastian.”

“Thankyou,” said Hector mechanically.

That night, Zayn did not stay at Tessa’s house for long before he left. He did not return home

after he left Tessa’s house, but he drove towards Sebastian and Sabrina’s house instead. He still

did not know how Aino was doing. Rather than making a call in the car, it was better for him to go

over and ask. Nobody could be compared to Aino’s position in Zayn’s heart.

As he drove very steadily the whole way, and he thought about many things. He kept recalling

that woman who was pushed to the ground by Tessa. Then, Tessa’s call came in silently.

“Tessa.” Zayn answered.

On the other end, Tessa was choked up. “Zayn, about today...I’m very sorry.”
