Chapter 111 For the first time, Zachary felt like such an idiot. Why did it take such a long tfor him to realize what an amazing mom I had been? He begged, "Can you please forgive me?" Watching him cry his eyes out, I felt numb for sreason. "Does forgiveness even matter at this point?" His sobs were cut off as he stared at me, stunned.

"Life's about choices and consequences," I said calmly. "Smistakes just can't be undone." He wiped his tears frantically. "But I'm just a kid..." I replied evenly, "Kids still need to own their choices." He tried to pull himself together but could not stop crying.

"I hope this teaches you something." I then continued calmly, "Think before you act next time." Still sobbing, Zachary managed a weak "okay".

I glanced at Zane. "Let's go." He nodded. "Alright." Leaning against his car, Steven watched Zachary from afar. The poor kid was too proud to break down in front of his classmates, but the tears just kept coming.

"Do you feel bad for Zachary?" Jessica asked from inside the car while looking at Steven, who stayed quiet. She continued, "Are you thinking about getting back with Annalise?" Steven slid into the backseat without a word.

Jessica's stomach dropped.

Why wouldn't he answer? Could she have guessed it correctly? Taking a deep breath to stay cool, Jessica started plotting her next move.

Then, Steven finally said, "No." Jessica leaned against the door with a smirk. didn't think so, either. I mean, she's hardly a saint. She slept with my ex-husband while you were still married.

"She even got herself filmed. And now, she's managed to seduce Mr. Huxham." Jessica knew how Steven felt about Annalise so she had to take every chance to poison that well. This was the only way to make him believe he was over Annalise.

But she felt that was not enough. She needed him to think she was the one he really loved.

"That's enough." Steven clearly felt her uncomfortable hearing her words Buckling up, he added, Jessica, we both know damn well why she slept with your ex." He was not sure what was up with Annalise and Zane, but they definitely were not married. They were not even an item.

He had seen enough couples to

know that pairs would usually have that spark, whether they were m married or just dating each other But Amalise and Zane felt like total strangers. That thought lifted his mood a bit. Jessica clutched her skirt without realizing it. Was he seriously making excuses for Annalise? Steven concluded, "You'd better pretend nothing has happened." Seeing his expression, Jessica looked away, stone-faced. Then, it hit her.

The video of Casper and Annalise was still her ace in the hole. As long as the video existed Steven and Annalise would never get back together! Jessica could finally breathe easy.
