Chapter 199 Chapter 199 Yes, everyone would get old, but aging overnight was truly heartbreaking.

Zack still madea cup of mocha, but it tasted awfully bitter.

"Take these coffee beans home. You can brew it yourself. It's high in antioxidants." Zack packed the leftover coffee beans for me. He treatedlike his own daughter, and now there was an added layer of guilt to it.

I couldn't refuse, or it would make him feel worse.

"Okay, I'll ask for more when I finish it," I responded in a light casual tone to ease his mood.

"Hmm, ask for anything you want. Maddie, you are my daughter, do you understand?" Zack spoke from the bottom of his heart.

I firmly nodded. "You're my father too." When I was in school, Zack usually attended my parent-teacher meetings. Sometimes Bree wanted to go, but Zack insisted with the excuse that given his status, the teachers in school would takemore seriously.

Although my parents died early, Zack never madefeel like an orphan in front of my classmates.

Zack nodded hard. I glanced at his hair thinking that Bree might worry. "Zack, Bree is very worried about you. If she sees you like this..." "I still look handsome, don't I?" Zack ran his fingers through his hair.

I laughed through my tears and nodded. "Yes, you do. You look the best no matter how you age." We heard footsteps coming up the stairs as we talked and laughed. We heard Bree's voice before we saw her. "I've cto realize that only Maddie can handle you, old man." Bree had cup to the door after she spoke. I saw her with a playful smile through the open door.

The smile froze on her face the moment she saw Zack. She looked at him in disbelief with eyes widened in shock. Moments later, tears started to fall.

Zack and I both stood up. I quickly walked to her for fear that she couldn't handle the shock. "Bree..." Instead of looking at me, Bree kept staring at Zack's hair.

Zack walked over and wiped her tears. "What's wrong? Do you think I look ugly?" Bree's eyes were fixed on Zack's hair. She raised her trembling hand after a long while. "Your hair..." "I now have more gray hair than you do. You don't have to worry about yours anymore, right?" Zack joked while wiping her tears.

Bree's tears wouldn't stop as she trembled. She was in so much pain.

It was the first tI had seen he cry so bitterly.

Zack had always doted on her. She rarely shed tears, but even while crying uncontrollably, her hands kept stroking Zack's hair. Seeing this, I quietly went downstairs.

77 Conrad saw me. "What happened? I heard my mom crying." Chapter 199 "Zack... His hair grayed overnight." My words shocked Conrad, and his eyes widened. Moments later, he lowered his head and fell silent.

I didn't know how to comfort him.

Although I cwith a purpose! v.e.

was no longer in the mood to execute my plans.

"I'm heading back," I told Conrad.

He glanced upstairs. "I'll see you out." I got in the car and tried to start it, but the engine wouldn't turn on.

I then remembered that before coming over, I had mechanics at the repair shop tamper with the car so I E could ride in Zack's. "Has your car broken down?" Conrad noticed.

I couldn't meet his eyes out of guilt and softly murmured a confirmation.

"I'll call someone to fix it. Get Stewart to send you home," Conrasuggested Stewart Glover was Zack's X
