Chapter 21 Resurrecting Zara Lane

• Zara’s breath hitched. His words struck a chord, a painful truth she hadn’t dared to acknowledge. She had felt dim and hollowed out ever since the breakup. The vibrant, confident Zara Lane, the one who lit up runways and magazine covers, felt like a distant memory now.
• “We have to get that spark back, Zara,” he said, his voice firm, but still infused with a deep concern. “That’s a crucial step. For everything.”
• Zara looked away, a wave of self-pity threatening to overwhelm her. “But I can always get my spark back after the revenge,” she mumbled, her voice small. “After they’ve paid. After my name is cleared.” She believed it. She truly did. Her happiness, her peace, her very essence, felt totally linked to their downfall.
