"I'm sure all of you are aware of my public relationship with Madeline Rose, and as much as I want it to be true, I must confess that it was fake," Zane stated firmly. "I forced Madeline into it because I couldn't bear to let her go. I've been in love with her since we were young, and I dedicated my life to being as popular as she was before."
"I thought I finally had a chance after Madeline's scandal with Jonathan Hale broke out. But instead, she fell in love with another man," Zane said as he darted his eyes at the bastard who sat beside Madeline. "But that man doesn't deserve Madeline, and I still believe that."
Lance's expression darkened visibly and everyone who noticed it would get a shiver down their spine. They knew that Zane Eastwood's popularity was massive, but he was still not a match for the Grant family and their absolute power and influence.
'Zane is digging his own grave,' were the collective thoughts of the guests right now.
