The Year I Was the Other Woman To Myself novel Chapter 843

Marico had vanished without a trace. He blocked anyone who tried to call him, didn't come home, and completely abandoned his duties at the company. The vice president of Zenith Group tried to manage the workload while caring for his pregnant wife, but the stress was too much, and he eventually collapsed from exhaustion.

Left with no other options, Theodore Stapleton had to step back into Zenith Group to take control.

The board of directors, who had previously opposed Theodore, had been thoroughly terrified by Marico's chaotic management style. So when Theodore returned, they didn't just stop protesting—they practically wept with relief.

Over at Zenith Group, Penelope Laurier was swamped with crucial projects. She was so incredibly busy that she rarely left the office before midnight.

Tonight, she finally managed to finish early. She and Theodore had planned a romantic evening, leaving the kids behind for a quiet dinner together.

But just as she stepped out of the office, she got a call from Theodore. He said something had happened with Heath Haynes, and he had to rush over. He told her to go home without him.

"What happened? Is he okay?"

"He's threatening to jump off the bridge," Theodore replied, his voice laced with profound exhaustion.

Penelope felt a heavy sigh escape her lips. After receiving the heart transplant, the boy had developed severe depression. He barely spoke and looked for every possible chance to end his own life.

They didn't even need to seek revenge; Heath was already torturing himself beyond recognition.

Penelope rushed to the scene. On the massive cross-sea bridge, Heath was already dangling over the railing. There was no fear on his face, only pure, unfiltered anger as he glared at Theodore.

"They killed your brother! I never wanted his heart! I'm a victim in this too! Why do you hate me? You should be hating them! Go after them!"

He screamed at Theodore, completely overwhelmed by his own grievances. Theodore simply watched him with a predatory gaze, and that cold stare was more than Heath could bear. His emotions spiraled completely out of control.
