Gorgeous Couple’s Sweet Love novel Chapter 114

Zack nodded and said, "Sounds good. You've been involved in this industry before, so doing advertising suits you. In the future, the Channing family's advertisements will all be handed over to you."

He even knew what I used to do before!

Panicking, I replied, "That's not what I meant."

"I know, but Em, you have to know that only when the Shears and the Channings join forces can we have a chance to resist them. If..."

"If what?" I asked.

Zack paused, and finally said faintly, "Nothing."

At that time, Zack chose not to mention the Weier family, even if he valued the Weiers as much as Joel did. However, he was different from Joel. He was unwilling to use Laurelie.

Zack turned around, took a glass of warm water from the kitchen, and handed it to me. He reminded me, "Teresa is a tough opponent. If you want to let her understand that heaven's vengeance is slow but sure, you have to defeat the families behind her. It is not easy, so you don't have too high an expectation."

I nodded my head in understanding. The warmth of the water in the glass permeated my hand through the glass, making me feel warm in my heart. I smiled and said, "I understand that they are difficult to deal with, but since I've decided to do this, I will not rest until I get to the bottom of it. Even if Benjamin does not intend to help me at all, I have to think of a way to get back at them myself. I can't let Teresa think that I am easily bullied and look down on me again and again and insult me! But the ironic fact is that I really am not as good as she is in a lot of things!"

Zack suddenly sighed. He stretched out his hand and rubbed my head. Just like many years ago, he stood not far away and kept guarding me.

He took a deep look at me, and the complicated emotions seemed to flow through his eyes, but finally he calmed down.

He promised, "Em, if you want to get to the bottom, I will go down there with you. I'll help you deal with Teresa to the end. Since Benjamin doesn't wanna do it, I will."

My eyes turned red, and I didn't know what to say. Zack caressed my face with his finger and said softly, "You were nineteen when I first knew you. You were a simple but talented young girl. You could follow the bread crumbs left behind and find the evidence, no matter how deeply hidden they were. Your words and your wisdom were both filled with sweetness and sharpness at the same time. Albeit you haven't regained all your memories and even forgot all about me, I still believe you are the firm and confident I knew back then. You might be at a loss, but I know in my heart that you know what you should do and what you should not do."

Zack said, "Em, the passage of time has dulled your pride, but you have to believe that you have always been so good. Even if Benjamin has never been able to see that, I believe that one day, you will come back to me."

Zack thought of me very highly and returned to me the pride I lost. I asked confusedly, "Zack, was I really like what you said when I was nineteen?"

"Sure." Zack wiped my tears and looked at me with his deep and distant eyes. He said firmly, "Teresa took away your memory and your pride. Think about it. If you were not excellent at that time, how could the superiors allow you to follow me to Glestin to complete the mission that required almost the hight level of clearance? Em, sometimes you really need to think highly of yourself."

I suddenly understood Zack's meaning. He was afraid that I would feel inferior and desperate, so he returned my dignity to me one by one.

He told me, even if I was so unsuited and useless in everyone's eyes, in his eyes, I was still the smartest girl that was by his side back then.

I just temporarily lost my pride.

Like a pearl covered in dust.

But one day, my luster would shine in the sunlight again.

Zack never lied, so I believed what he said. I reached out to hold his hand and said gratefully, "I have to trouble you every time I feel sad and I have troubled enough."

I couldn't take what he did for granted just because he loved me.

Zack was never an alternative for me.

"My silly girl," Zack murmured and fell silent. I talked to him about something else. During this period, he asked uncertainly, "Do you think that Joel is ready to let you go back to the company to inherit the shares?"

I was puzzled by Zack's sudden question, but I still explained carefully. "There are only two children in the Shears family, so I'm the only one who can share his burden. Joel's business has expanded a lot recently, so he wants to go back to the company."

Zack kept silent for a while and said, "Joel has made a lot of achievements in the company. The Channings and the Heaneys are far inferior to him in this regard. What's more, he involves in a wide range of industries. Almost all the famous enterprises in City B have worked with him. It seems that he is eager to finish alot in a short period of time. Now hearing what you said, I suddenly feel that he is preparing for your return to the company."

Puzzled, I asked, "For me?"

"You said that Joel has been very busy lately. I think he should want to quit. He may want to give you the entire company for you to run, and that's why he's willing to do all these things for you. Joel must be tired of the business."

Joel said that he would give me the Shears family.

But I didn't know he meant the whole family business!

I hesitated and said, "Joel said that he wanted me to inherit the family. Now I think about it carefully. His real meaning seems to be what you said. He didn't say that he would let me go back to the family to share the burden for him, and he didn't say that he would transfer the shares to me, but directly to let me inherit the family business"

Zack took the glass and poured another glass of water and said, "Perhaps he has this plan, but he is the one who will make the final call. I am just wondering why you don't want others to know that you are a member of the Shears family. Is there any reason?"

"Hm," I answered, "When I was with my father, the relationship between the two of us and the whole Shears family had always been kind of bad. After my dad passed away, I blamed my grandfather and never did return to the Shears family. It was actually all because I was too stubborn."
