"So, what's your next step? What do you plan to do?" Wendy asked.
"No, I have no plans," Zen replied with a laugh, as though trying to convince herself that she could still laugh about it, adding, "Christian has never been someone I could control. I have absolutely no influence over any of his decisions."
"Do you know why he wants to marry Yonina?" Wendy asked, not able to hold back any longer. "The Collins Group is not worth much these days."
"I...," Zen inhaled sharply. After a long pause, she continued, "I have no idea.
Christian doesn't talk to me about his plans."
Wendy was in no doubt as to the veracity of Zen's words.
Although she had no recollection of what Christian was like, she could tell that, as far as he was concerned, Zen was transparent, and that he would never tell her anything.
Despite the fact that Zen had betrayed her, she had been Wendy's best friend in the past.
