I Only Want You novel Chapter 700

When James heard this, he immediately became unhappy, "Am I ruthless?"

"As I said, it was not Zena who kidnapped Elizabeth, and that was just an unwitting blunder. You are going too far!"

James took a deep breath, and his eyes became intense and gloomy, "Uncle, I respect you as an elder, but can you figure out the truth? What do you mean? If Zena didn't talk nonsense with the excuse that she was drunk, my wife wouldn't have been kidnapped."

"Maybe you don't think it's a big deal, because my wife has nothing to do with you. To you, she is just a stranger whom you've never met. I know that you love Zena, and I can understand your feelings. But what about me? I will spend the rest of my life with my wife. Since you can do something for your daughter, why can't I do something for my wife?"

"Don't say that Zena was out of mind after getting drunk. As I just said, if she was really drunk, she wouldn't do those scheming things!"

"Even if she was really drunk, and she didn't mean it, I can't forgive her. Because my wife almost died because of her, and I almost lost my child. If you were me, what would you do?"

"I don't want to kidnap Zena and let her experience what my wife has suffered, so I think I'm merciful enough. Can't you even accept such a punishment?"

Zena's father didn't expect that things could be like this, and he was very shocked. He was a reasonable and upright person. If it was not something about Zena, he could understand James.

However, it was something about his own daughter. How could he just sit by and do nothing? Moreover, he had come here, and he didn't want to go back like this.

After digesting the information and thinking about it for a while, Zena's father said, "Jimmy, I... apologize to you on behalf of Zena. I'm really sorry. But, what I want to say is the same. Since you can sit here and talk to me, it means that Elizabeth and the child are both safe, right? They are lucky. If you must do this to Zena... when we meet each other in the future, we will feel embarrassed. As for Zena, you two grew up together. Just let it go for the sake of your friendship, okay?"

"Well..." Zena's father thought for a moment and continued, "I just bought a piece of land in the north of the city. If you like it, I can give it to you. What do you think?"

James knew the land which Zena's father had purchased. That piece of land was large. Zena's father actually wanted to give it to him...

James chuckled, "Uncle, that piece of land is too expensive. I really can't accept it."

When Zena's father heard this, his heart missed a beat, "What? Are you determined not to compromise?"

James nodded, "I don't think I should compromise. Actually, buying a piece of land is a cinch for me."

Zena's father got angry in an instant, "Do you have to ignore the friendship between our two families and be stubborn? Why do you have to be so cruel?"

James's face darkened, "I think I've made it quite clear to you. If you still can't understand, I'm really curious to know why your company can become so successful. Since Zena doesn't care about our friendship and hurt my wife, why should I care about it? Will we be awkward when we meet? I don't care, because you are not important in my heart."

"What? Are you doubting my strength or my moral standing?"

James smiled and didn't answer his question, "I never doubted it before, but now... I really feel that it will be better if Meng Company can be managed by a reasonable person. Uncle, I know a lot of people. Do you want me to introduce one to you?"

Hearing this, Zena's father went berserk. Meng Company was founded by him when he was young. He bridged over many difficulties and finally made it successful. Although it was not the of top 500 enterprises in the country, it was a large-scale company.

But James actually dared to say this to him!
