Chapter 1277
Anyway, she got all the evidence against Harriet, and the Griffin family would
definitely go after Harriet later. The day had come to avenge Nicholas, and she
had nothing to regret.
Riley just lay down in the middle of the road without fear.
Zephyr, who was standing not far away, looked shocked.
He didn’t expect that she would agree to the bet!
And her purpose was to get this bracelet back.
At this moment, she looked fearless on the ground while he felt a cold sweat on
his back as if goosebumps were creeping up all over his body.
He thought, “Is the bracelet Nicholas gave her so important that she's willing to
risk her life for it?"
His right hand holding the bracelet was trembling, and he looked very frightened!
He trembled when he saw the light of an approaching car in the distance.” Just
as the car was getting closer to her, he instinctively rushed out and
stretched out his arms to stop the car.
No! She couldn't die!
He would never allow this to happen!
The driver immediately braked and stuck his head out of the window, yelling, “Are
you crazy? Why are you suddenly stopped in the middle of the road? Do you
have any idea how dangerous this is?”
However, Zephyr didn’t care about it at all because all he had in mind was Riley,
who was lying on the ground!
“Are you out of your mind?” Zephyr turned around, pulled Riley up from the
ground, and glared at her.
“Isn't that what you told me to do? And I said yes to the bet.” Riley said, “Does
that mean I won since you rushed out? If it doesn't, just go away and let the
game continue. I can do it again.”
“Do you want to die?” he said angrily.
“I want to live, but what I want more is the bracelet,” replied Riley. She looked
very calm when she said this, as if she was talking about trivial affairs.
Zephyr made a fist with his right hand. He clutched the diamond bracelet so
tightly that it hurt his palm.
“How important is Nicholas to you? Did you forget that you used to be my
fiancée? How could you risk your life for a bracelet he gave you?” Zephyr
growled lowly, and the jealousy in his heart seemed to burst through his chest.
“Nicholas could risk his life to save me, so why can't I do the same thing for the
bracelet he left to me? How dare you call me your fiancée, Zephyr? My fiance
should believe me when everyone doesn't, protect me when everyone bullies
me, and help me out when I'm in despair. But what did you do?”
As she spoke, his face grew darker and darker.
“I never took you as my fiance, Zephyr. You're just a beautiful illusion in my mind
at that time,” said Riley, who used to imagine that he could always protect her
and love her.
In the end, she realized that he was never the man she expected him to be.
“Illusion?” Zephyr murmured, looking much more haggard.
He suddenly gave his right hand away, and the bracelet in his hand fell to the
ground.
Riley jumped towards the bracelet, grabbed it tightly, and held it to her chest,
laughing with tears. She finally got it back.
However, her expression hurt him and made him not want to look at her again.
He thought, “Nicholas took her heart with merely a bracelet.
What about me? It seems that I'm nothing to her!"
Zephyr got back into the car, lowered his head, and looked at the palm of
his right hand in a daze. There were marks left by the bracelet.
He thought, “What's wrong with me? Do I have to be so out of control for Riley
and a bracelet?
I wasn't acting like myself just now!”
“Go back to the Scott residence,” Zephyr closed his eyes and said tiredly.
Just thinking about Riley made his head hurt!
Riley returned to her house. She carefully checked the bracelet and put back into
her jewel case.
“Wait for me, Nicholas. After everything is settled, I'll wear this bracelet and...
And I'll never take it off,” Riley murmured.
The trial would begin in two days. Riley asked Calvin to look for the evidence,
and now with the Griffin family watching it, it was not easy for the Scott family to
play any tricks.
This time, Harriet was going to pay for what she did many years ago!

What she didn't know was that at this
moment, in the study of the Scott
residence, Zephyr was looking at
some photos he received. They were
photos of him and Riley meeting
earlier today. The content is on

His expression in the photo was complicated. His eyes were full of
disappointment, anger, and threat, but more of jealousy!
Yes, jealousy!
Anyone who looked at these photos would think that he was a man jealous of
love!
Zephyr thought, “Was I jealous of Nicholas?
Or was I jealous of Riley's love for Nicholas? After all, he had been dead for so
many years, yet he was still so important to her!
And the reason why I was jealous was that I loved Riley!"
Although Zephyr never wanted to admit his feelings for Riley, the photos easily
removed his mask and forced him to face his true feelings!
After a while, Zephyr’s phone rang. He said coldly, “I got the photos and

“Sure. I promise you I won't reveal these photos since you're willing to pay for
them, Mr. Scott,” the man said obsequiously.

The man who was speaking was just
a random reporter. He ran into Riley
earlier today and tried to make up
some gossip with her photo, but he

Now, Zephyr was willing to pay a lot of money for those photos, which was a
windfall for him.
After a while, the reporter got the money. He smiled with satisfaction and deleted
all the backups of these photos on the USB disk.
After all, he was dealing with Zephyr, who he couldn't afford to fool.
However, while he was deleting the photos, he took a glance at them.
