All too late for his love (Willow and Zayn)

Chapter 364

Skyler shrieked, “Why did you save me, Zayn? I’d rather be dead right now!”

“Skyler, stop saying such things!” Zayn clutched Skyler’s hand tightly, worried that she might go over the edge and hurt herself.

She implored miserably, “Zayn, I’ve lost everything–my reputation, my dignity! I might as well die! I don’t want to live anymore.

“Just let me die. Please, Zayn! That woman in the video was not me. I was set up, and now, everyone thinks I’ve done those outrageous things with Louis!

“Everyone thinks I’m some filthy harlot and treats me no better than a sewerage rat! You know I’ve always

wanted to live with my head held high. I have too much pride to live like this!”

Zayn stared at her and vowed solemnly, “Skyler, I promise I’ll take care of that video, but you have to promise me you’ll live, and live well.”

He couldn’t care less who she had slept with. By putting out the scandal caused by that video, he was

simply returning her the favor he owed her years ago. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

“Do you think I was the woman in that video too, Zayn?” Skyler shook her head belligerently as she buried

her face in her hands, sobbing. “It wasn’t me! Zayn, I swear that woman wasn’t me!

“You have to believe me, Zayn! You’re the only man I’ve ever been with, I swear this on my life! How could

I have done something so filthy with Louis?

“Someone set me up! Someone’s out to get me! Please don’t fall for their trick, Zayn. Please don’t think of

me as a tramp who gets in bed with anyone!”

“Skyler, I’ve never thought of you that way,” Zayn said patiently. “I promise I’ll look into this and clear your

name for you.”

“You don’t believe me, Zayn!” Skyler’s tears streamed down her cheeks like rivulets, and her voice cracked as she added, “I can tell you’re just comforting me. You don’t think I’m innocent at all!”

She sat up and drew her knees to her chest, looking small and vulnerable. “What do I have to do to make you believe me, Zayn? Do you even know how disgusted I am with myself?

“I was presenting an award at the award ceremony this evening. All my fans who claimed to love me before went crazy and started throwing trash at me! They splattered me with garbage!

“I can’t help feeling like I’ve been/covered in filth since then! I know I haven’t betrayed you, but I felt like I

was covered in sewage.

“I went home and scrubbed myself raw, but I still feel filthy. I’m disgusting and repulsive. That’s how I will feel for the rest of my life!”

Zayn pulled her into his arms and murmured, “You’re not filthy, Skyler. You’re a proper young lady!”

Skyler sobbed, her tears falling harder. Suddenly, she looked up and stared at Zayn with a fanatical gleam

in her eyes. “Zayn… My darling Zayn, did you mean what you said?

“You can’t turn around and think I’m repulsive after this! I will not allow it! If you do, I won’t have any reason to live!

“Don’t leave me, Zayn. Stay with me forever, I beg you. I don’t love Louis or any other man besides you!”

Zayn patted Skyler’s back soothingly as he reassured her, “I promise I won’t leave you.”

After he made the promise, Skyler wiped her tears as steely resolve glimmered in her eyes. She bit her lower lip and said slowly, “Zayn, I actually have an idea on how I can clear my name.”

With that, she slithered out of Zayn’s embrace and quickly stripped off her clothes, baring every inch of her skin to him.
