Gorgeous Couple’s Sweet Love novel Chapter 44

I was never that embarrassed. I turned my head and looked at the person with his head slightly down, and said nervously, "Thank you for coming with me."

Zack mumbled and said, "Thank you for trusting me."

When we arrived at the agreed place, I took out my phone and looked at the time and we were ten minutes early than the agreed time.

As soon as I sat down and ordered two cups of coffee, the phone rang and it was the loan shark.

I picked up and asked, "Are you here?"

"We are meeting somewhere else."

He really was cautious!

I patiently asked, "Where?"

"Obelisk Square."

I hung up the phone and said helplessly to Zack, who was sitting across from me, "They changed the rendezvous and they are in the square not far away."

"Sure, let's go."

Zack raised his eyebrows. He stretched out his hand and took my palm. I was startled and tried to break free. Zack tightened his grip and said, "Don't turn me down."

There was a hint of caution and hope in his voice.

When I arrived at Obelisk Square, I observed my surroundings carefully and said to Zack, "A middle- aged man with a black scarf, slightly white hair is approaching us with his head down, comparing the voice I heard on the phone, it should be him."

Zack said, "I know, he's coming right at us."

As soon as the middle-aged man approached, he raised his head and looked at us with a pair of brilliant eyes. He asked, "Where is the money?"

I asked: "Where's the IOU?"

He snorted coldly and took a note from his pocket and threw it into my hand. I unfolded it and looked at the signature and the time, which were correct, so I took out a bank card from my bag and handed it to him.

"There is 2.2 million in it."

He took it and said with a smile: "Even if there isn't, we have our own way."

After he left, I breathed a sigh of relief and turned my head to see Zack's calm gaze. I smiled embarrassedly and said, "This whole thing has been weighing on me for too long. It's like I've removed a giant stone that was pressing down on my heart."

Zack asked in a voice: "You didn't use my card?"

"No, I borrowed the money from a friend."

I took out his bank card from my bag and gave it back to him, "Zack, there's no reason for me to use your money."

"No reason?" Zack looked down at the card in my hand and asked coldly, "Em, do you think I was lying to you? Do you think I am tampering with your memory? You think what I said is absurd?"

"Zack, before I remember the past, I can't believe your words for the time being." I put the bank card in his palm and said, "September said that I had been transferred to Glestin. She didn't know the specifics, but my stepfather said that I had always been in the city, and there is no record of my transfer in my personal file, so..."

Zack interrupted: "So this is why you don't believe me?"

His brows were furrowed and his lips pursed bitterly. I said anxiously, "Zack," Then I asked, "Is there a possibility that you took me for someone else?"

In the cold and windy city, in the square shrouded in the gusty wind, Zack suddenly stretched out his arms and hugged me tightly in his arms. He put his chin on top of my head, his voice was low and a little sad: "You were my Em and you still are, and you'll always be."

There was a feeling of deep sorrow in his voice. For a while, I forgot to push him away, and only muttered: "Mr. Glover."

After a long time, Zack let go of me. He looked at me silently and didn't say much. He was also silent on the way back to the police station.

I parked the car at the door of the police station. Zack sat stiffly. I said, "Mr. Glover," indicating that we had arrived.

After a long silence, Zack took out his black wallet from his pocket, opened it and took out a photo, and handed it to me.

I was stunned and took it.

If I had any last shred of thoughts of resisting what he said, the photo was the last straw that weighed down on me. The couple in the photo seemed so loving as the girl leaned against the man's chest with a bright smile on her face.

But the man's eyes were cold but concealed a ray of affection.

The girl was me, me from nineteen to twenty.

As for the man...I suddenly looked up at Zack, it was him! It really was him! Zack and I really had such a past.

Zack closed his eyes and said, "No matter how much you reject it; no matter whether you are married or not; no matter who you choose to love now; Em, I will always be by your side to protect you, so as to prevent you from being lonely, suffering, worries or any other negative feelings in the world. All I want you to have is all the love and the happiness in the world."

Being lonely, suffering, worries...

All the love and happiness.

My heart tightened, and I couldn't stop shaking and being moved. How can I let a man so high up do this for me?

I stretched out my hand to cover my tearful eyes, and said in a soft voice: "Zack, I don't have any impression of the past. You... You are a man who broke into my world suddenly. Can you tell me about my past? What is it like? How did we fall in love?"

"Em, you just transferred to Glestin at that time, and I was the one who was transferred to Glestin with you. At that time, I was your team leader. Together we assisted Glestin in solving the case, and we finally fell in love." Zack paused, and he somewhat nervously said: "The two of us... To be honest, I don't even know or understand how we got together. It was like everything was supposed to happen."
