Chapter 73.
Zachary was used to flattery, so how could he put up with this kind of humiliation again and again?
I was just about to teach this crazy, lawless woman a good lesson.
A recording suddenly started playing in the quiet hallway-
“Baby, slow down, don’t scare our son-”
MAxras
One sentence made Zachary freeze up like he’d been hit in a pressure point.
Jovana looked at him making a fool of himself, shook her phone with her right hand, and almost laughed, “This recording, Mr. Crosier, sound familiar? I’ve got the full version here. Never thought you’d still be so energetic, Mr. Crosier. You even have a son out there.”
“You said, what would Mrs. Crosier and Sir Crosier think if they saw this video?”
“Will the Crosier family still protect you?”
Jovana talked back to him, copying the way he spoke.
“Okay, okay, okay…”
Zachary’s face went pale, then red, then pale again. He said Good, good, good three times in a row, too angry to say anything else.
He really regretted not drugging her back then and letting Evan screw that bitch.
Jovana narrowed her eyes and talked to him coldly,”Right now, give the Lemonade Sizzle project back and quit the board. I can give you this video just as it is.”
This cancer, if left in the group, was just trouble.
“Looks like I really gave you too much face.” Zachary licked his lips darkly, not scared at all, pointed at Jovana’s nose and said, “Then let’s see who gets who first, if I take you down first or if I get taken down by the Crosier family!”
“Now that Armando’s gone, crushing you is as easy as crushing an ant!”
After saying that, Zachary snorted and walked away with big strides. Even his back showed a silent
confidence.
That attitude, it was obvious he was furious.
Jovana’s back was always stiff, and her hand squeezed her palm so hard it almost went numb.
She just confronted Zachary, half threatening, half testing.
After all, the older, the wiser. Zachary was able to do so well in this circle, he definitely had some real
skills behind him.
Sure, but that didn’t mean she was a pushover, easy to mess with.
And this time, she didn’t plan to count on Armando at all… Before this, she already knew Armando wouldn’t be on her side.

Jovana struggled to swallow her bitter throat.
Took a deep breath.

After she calmed down, she took out her phone and called some friends in her circle, trying to find a way to connect with the Crosier family.
This was important right now.
“Sorry, Ms. Atherton, I probably couldn’t help you. Mrs. Crosier was staying abroad with Sir Crosier for his treatment, and she probably wouldn’t be back anytime soon.”
“Sorry Vana, you know a lot of the Crosier family’s business was handled by Zachary now, I probably couldn’t help you.”
“Sorry…”
Almost every call was stuff like this.
There was more or less some meddling from Zachary in this.
Jovana’s heart sank. She leaned against the cold wall, feeling a bit defeated. After calming down, she picked up her phone again.
However, after the last call ended, there was still no result.
She raised her hand and pressed her brow, thinking of those harsh words Zachary said before he left, and a chill slowly crept up from her feet.
Jovana bit her pale lips and, for the first time, understood what it meant when people said “power can crush you.”
Was there really no way out? Did I really have to put up with Zachary, that bastard, bullying and humiliating me again and again?
Did she really have to go against her heart and go beg Armando in a low voice?
Jovana paced anxiously in the hallway.
And at that moment, in the hospital room.
After Zachary told his men to block Jovana’s way, he was cuddling with his lover and sleeping.
“Was it really okay? What if the Crosier family really found out, what should we do?”
The lover sat restlessly, frowning with worry.
“With me here, what are you afraid of? Those two from the Crosier family were already sent abroad by me for treatment. There’s someone watching them there. They couldn’t come back anytime soon, so don’t worry.”
There wasn’t a trace of panic on Zachary’s face. He held her and soothed her softly, gently stroking her rounded belly.

“You just focused on your pregnancy and didn’t think about anything else.”
The lover heard that and gradually relaxed. She looked up and kissed the man’s cheek.”Hubby, you’re the
best.”
