Chapter 107: Why Are You So Good To Me
Patricia's body trembled more as she heard the tenderness and concern in Zac's voice. NôvelDrama.Org content.
She wrapped her arms tightly around her body as if trying to protect herself from potential harm.
Noticing this, Zac became more worried.
He stared at her anxiously and asked, "What happened? Where did you get hurt, Patricia?"
Zac's anxiety levels rose when she still refused to answer his question.
"Don't come over here."
Lowering her head, Patricia refused to let Zac draw closer to her.
It was as if she saw Zac as the plague, and this scared her.
Zac was too angry to retort then.
Staring fiercely at Patricia, he took a deep breath as his thin lips trembled with anger.
‘Just how much does this woman hate me? Even at a time like this, she is protecting herself like a hedgehog!
"What did you mean by that?" Zac asked.
His heart was ablaze, and he had no way of dousing the fire.
This feeling made him uncomfortable.
‘What do I mean? In actuality, even I don't know!’ Zac's sudden display of tenderness frightened Patricia a little.
‘Yes, I am afraid! I am afraid that I will lose control.I can't help but want to get closer to Zac when he's like this.Just like when I used to be foolishly in love with him while he didn't love me at all.’
Raising her eyes, Patricia bit her lower lip.
Looking at Zac with a depressed expression, she said fiercely, "Why? Why are you so good to me?"
‘Doesn't he hate me? Doesn't he want me to disappear from his world? Why does he keep pestering me even now? He claims that I am his woman, and he called me his wife a moment ago.If that’s the case, why would he divorce me and force me to abort our child!’
"You are my woman! It's natural for me to treat you so well," Zac said in a serious tone.
Seeing the reproachful look in her eyes, he couldn't help but lower his eyes like a deflated balloon.
Hearing this, Patricia couldn't help scoffing.
Looking at Zac coldly, she asked, "If that is so, why did you divorce me, and why did you force me to abort our child?"
Patricia couldn't help but spit out all the sorrow in her heart.
Looking at Zac with a sorrowful expression on her face, Patricia continued, "After I divorced you, I lost Tat li Vat mobic my child.This led to me being involved in many inexplicable scandals.My mother was then implicated as a result of this.Currently, she is having such a hard time in the Lowell family that Uncle Richard asked me to keep my distance from her.I'm all alone now!"
Voicing this out loud brought Patricia to tears.
Anyone seeing her with that stubborn expression on her face while she wept would instantly feel sorry for her.
"I..."
Zac was so stunned when she bared her heart to him that he was left speechless.
Guilt washed over him as he looked at her.
"I'm alone now.Are you happy, Zac? No child, no mother, and no family.I'm all alone,"
she whispered as her voice choked on her sobs.
Patricia's cheeks were wet with her tears.
She looked so sorrowful, and every teardrop she shed made him all the more sorry for her.He was at a loss for words.
A trace of sadness flashed across his face.
'Of course, this is not what I wanted for Patricia! At that time, I didn't know that the baby in her belly was mine.Had I known, I...’ But he was not sure whether he would have still made her have an abortion ornot.
‘But this is all in the past now.There is no need for me to continue worrying about something that has already happened.Moreover, it was an extra-uterine pregnancy, so her child would not have been born alive.’’
Zac wanted to tell her that she had misunderstood him with regards to the abortion, but what was the point of him saying this now?
‘It was my thoughtlessness that made her suffer such deep pain from child loss.Also, Giselle's problem more or less stems from my actions.If I hadn't created those scandals, things might not have developed to this extent to affect her so much.’
"Patricia..."
Zac pursed his lips and wanted to say something, but no words came out.
"Do you feel happy that I'm alone now? I don't have any family.Are you happy that I'm alone in this world?"
Zac looked sadly at her tear-streaked face.
Tears were welling up in her eyes once again, but she refused to let them fall.
She looked so stubborn and pitiful at that moment.
Zac's hands that had hung in the air slowly approached Patricia.
He held the back of her neck tightly and said in a soft but firm voice, "You are not alone.You still have me.I am your closest family in the world!"
As Patricia heard this, her tears spilled from her eyes like pearls that had fallen off a string.
Choking on her sobs, she couldn't say a word.
‘Why would Zac say this to me now? It's meaningless to say these things to me now! And why was he heartless when I begged him before?’
These words hovered in Patricia's heart as her tears streamed down her face.
She was teary-eyed as she leaned against Zac's chest.
Her tears that wet his white shirt felt like they were penetrating his heart.
His long arms couldn't help trembling.
Feeling the sadness in her heart, Zac lowered his head and leaned it against her arms.
He then whispered, "I'm so sorry!"
Except for these three words, Zac didn't know what else to say.
Maybe these were the only words he could say for what he had done to her.
However, his apology had shocked Patricia so much she forgot to cry.
Then her thoughts retook control, and she found herself weeping again.
'Is Zac feeling guilty? But what is the use of him being guilty now? Everything has already happened and cannot be changed anymore! Yes, there is no returning from this.My baby is gone, and I can't see my mother.I am the only one left in my world.’
Hearing Patricia's sobs, Zac just quietly held her in his arms.
Every teardrop that fell down her cheek to his chest made his heart wrench.
Patricia didn't know how long she sat there crying.
She didn't stop until she felt exhausted.
"I'm going to sleep, Zac."
Slowly removing herself from Zac's comforting embrace, she kept her eyes lowered to avoid his gaze.
Zac didn't say anything when he saw her like this.
He quickly made the bed for her and tucked her in.
He then sat quietly to the side of her bed and watched her sleep.
Perhaps it was because she was exhausted from all crying, or perhaps it was something else entirely, but she fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.
Even in her sleep, she pursed her pink lips slightly, as if something was making her unhappy.
As Zac took in her sorrowful expression, his deep eyes narrowed slightly.
Raising his hand, he wiped the drop of tear from the corner of her eyes.
Zac's hand paused at the corner of her eyes.
Pursing his sexy thin lips, he looked at her sadly.
Then, his slender fingers bent slightly, as if he wanted to grasp something but he felt nothing in his hand.
Sighing, an indescribable expression flashed across Zac's face as his deep eyes stared at Patricia's face.
"Patricia, what should I do?" asked Zac sadly, confusion filling his eyes.
