Michelle stood frozen in place. After a long pause, she finally regained her composure. noveldrama

“Zayn, weren’t we just talking with Melissa ten minutes ago?”

Zayn’s expression darkened, his voice turning cold. “Michelle, are you hallucinating? Use your brain before you speak nonsense at the worst moment!”

Michelle couldn’t understand why he was acting this way. “How could I be imagining things? Catherine found us while we were still together!”

Zayn took a step closer, his gaze sharp and unforgiving. “Michelle, listen carefully. You can’t just go around making reckless claims!

“You must be mistaken. When did I ever sit and chat with you two?

“I’ve been occupied all day, meeting influential figures from different regions, discussing global affairs, and responding to military enthusiasts‘ inquiries. Do you think I have time to waste on pointless gossip?

“When Catherine and Elliott arrived, you had already finished your conversation with Melissa. They only saw us together after that!

“So whatever you and Melissa were talking about has nothing to do with me!”

Michelle stared into Zayn’s indifferent eyes, feeling a wave of dizziness and confusion wash over her.

“Zayn, you’re joking, right?”

Zayn’s expression twisted with disdain as he pointed at her. “Do I look like I have time to joke with dull women like you?

“Michelle, don’t drag me into whatever mess you and Melissa have created!

“Do you even realize what you’ve done? Slandering Joanna like that—it’s defamation! You’ve already broken the law!”

His voice was sharp, filled with contempt. “I have principles. I would never stoop to something so low!

“When Melissa brought this up before, I told her not to go through with it! Didn’t I?”

Michelle instinctively nodded, her voice hesitant. “But Zayn, later-”

Zayn cut her off. “Since I told her not to do it, why would I have anything to do with your ridiculous schemes? Use your brain!

“Now that Melissa has crossed the line, she has to face the consequences, and so do you. Don’t try to involve

me!

“I’m a man of ambition. I’ll hold a global strategic seminar. I can’t let trivial matters like this slow me down!”

Michelle stood frozen, her mind struggling to process his words.

The man she had idolized, admired, and loved so deeply was now pushing all the blame onto her.

“Your father always said a true man takes responsibility. Zayn, you’re my hero! My role model!

“I adore you. You’re everything I dreamed a great man should be!

“If we’ve done wrong, then we should admit it together. Even if it means facing the worst punishment, I’ll stand by your side!”

Zayn shouted angrily, “Stop spouting nonsense! You and Melissa have done unforgivable things, and now you’re trying to drag me down with you? You vile woman! I won’t waste another second on you!”

“Zayn, tell me this isn’t real! I must have heard wrong!” Michelle’s voice trembled, her eyes brimming with tears. She looked like a lost child, abandoned and helpless.

“D*mn it!” Elliott roared, “How can you treat a girl who loves you so much like this? Do you even call yourself a man? You’re worse than her!”

Michelle pushed Elliott aside. “I won’t let you insult Zayn! He’s nothing like what you’re saying!

“Zayn is a man who can face both glory and disgrace without faltering!”

Elliott sighed heavily. “A girl blinded by love is truly hopeless. Wake up, Michelle! The Zayn you believe in only exists in your mind. The real him is nothing but a hypocrite!”

“No! That’s not true! Zayn is a noble hero!” Michelle’s tear–filled eyes lifted toward the dark, clouded sky.

The sky, heavy with gloom, cast no light–only the glaring evidence of chat records scrolling across the large screen.

The fierce wind from earlier had died down. The roadside trees stood motionless as if silently watching the distant horizon.

“Zayn, you knew everything from the very beginning. You even told me step by step how to guide Melissa- how to target Robin’s weaknesses and how to push Joanna into a desperate situation.”

Zayn seized Michelle’s wrist. “You’re insane!”

She trembled. “Zayn … how could you?

“I’ve always believed you were a man of honor, someone I deeply admired. You were everything I ever wanted in love–the most remarkable person I’ve ever known!

“Whenever we talked, you spoke so passionately about your dreams. You always said you wanted to be as great as your grandfather and mine, to change the world in a meaningful way!

“But now, how can you refuse to take responsibility for something so small?

“Zayn, please, tell me you didn’t mean what you just said. Tell me it was all a lie…”

A low rumble of thunder echoed through the darkened sky.

On Brighton University’s plaza, the lovestruck students felt a sudden wave of emptiness as if the ground beneath them had vanished.

The dreams they had once chased with such passion now seemed distant and bitter.

Zayn gazed at Michelle, who looked like she might collapse at any moment, and smirked.

“Michelle, you’re too foolish. I’m meant for greater things–why would I let something so petty bring me down? And why should I care about your laughable feelings?

Are you trying to use your devotion to me as a way to shift the blame onto me?

“You made a mistake, and now you expect me to suffer the consequences? Dream on!

“I’d never do something so ridiculous! It goes against everything I stand for!

“I refuse to be tied to you any longer. I’m meant for bigger things!

“My ambition isn’t just to live up to my grandfather’s legacy–I intend to surpass it. One day, the entire world will recognize my name!

“Let me be clear, Michelle–I never thought you were special.

“In my eyes, you’re insignificant, unworthy of my time. You could never reach my level!

“I won’t waste my life on trivial things like love. My goals are far beyond that!

“Whatever you and Melissa have done has nothing to do with me. From now on, we’re strangers. Don’t have any illusions about me!”

A sharp slap echoed through the air as Elliott struck Zayn across the face.

“Zayn, you’re nothing but a beast!”
