When Tristan heard Lola's question, he knew that she was going to cause trouble.
"Nothing. Don't interfere in your cousin's affairs. Do you want to see him? If you don't want to see him, I won't help you."
"Let's meet him!"
Lola was extremely excited now. She couldn't wait to rush over to Zion.
After hanging up the phone, Tristan asked someone else to attend the academic seminar while he called Zion himself.
Zion was eating with Evangeline, and the two of them were talking and laughing happily. Whedbbn he saw it was Tristan's phone call, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
"Uncle?”
Tristan had been asking him to stay in Country R. Now that he suddenly called him, his heart couldn't help but thump.
"Is there something going on between my mom and dad?"
This was the only thought that came to Zion's mind.
Tristan smiled and said, "It's okay. As your uncle, can't I call you again? Or did I ruin your plan?"
"No."
Zion was relieved.
Tristan wanted to smoke, but he remembered that Priscilla couldn't smell it, so he could only play with it in his hands.
It was true. They had been married for so many years, but the problem of smoking hadn't been solved perfectly. He could only watch and smell the cigarette now, but he couldn't breathe it.
After a moment of depression, Tristan said, "I heard that you're in Y Country?"
"Yes."
Zion didn't hide his whereabouts.
Tristan then answered.
"I'm here too."
Zion was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered the recent academic seminar and understood.
"I'll treat you to lunch."
Zion was very sensible, and he also had something to ask Tristan for advice.
Tristan was very satisfied with his nephew. He smiled and said, "You must eat, but you don't have to invite me. I'll go to the palace to find Eugene at noon. No matter where you are now, come to my place and meet me. By the way, your cousin Lola is also here."
His words made Zion speechless.
Lola really gave him a headache.
She was seven years younger than him.
It was said that there was a huge gap between him and Lola. Who knew that this girl seemed to be born to like him. When she was a child, she ran behind him, but when she grew up, she was still so enthusiastic that he couldn't stand it.
Zion had once been glad that he was not in the same country as her, and that he was also a soldier. Only in this way could he avoid Lola. But now that he had retreated, Zion couldn't avoid her.
"Got it. I'll be there in a while."
After hanging up the phone, Zion was a little conflicted.
Evangeline almost heard it in front of him. She couldn't help asking, "She's just a cousin. Why do you have such a headache? Does she like you?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Do you think that in ancient times, where incest is a thing?"
Zion glanced at her and said, "I just have a headache about what I should give her."
"You can give her whatever she likes."
Hearing Evangeline's words, Zion really wanted to say that she liked him, so should he give her himself?
If he said that, he was sure that Evangeline would explode!
Zion quickly changed the subject.
