Chapter 1609
There were endless problems.
As the leader of the company, it was a piece of cake for Zayn to deal with the reporters. Several bodyguards stood in front of him to prevent the reporters from getting close to him. Zayn just answered indifferently in front of the reporters.
"About the acquisition of Kang Hospital by Ali Enterprises, please ask the media to pay attention to the official announcement of our company. I won't make too many opinions here."
"As for Aman, he did come back with Miss Chloe today. I believe that this matter will soon be released by the Emperor, so it's not a secret."
"As for my new lover." Zayn looked up at the reporter's camera with his dark eyes, as if he were telling everyone who was gossiping about it. "To correct it, that's not my new lover."
Just as the reporters were cheering. Zayn smiled and said, "She is my girlfriend."
All was silent in the reporters' group.
"And we will soon get engaged." Zayn said, "The next time I respond to the media, she should be my fiancee. That's it."
In front of the TV, Nia's jaw almost dropped to the ground!
"Nia? Dad's getting engaged to you even more than he said on TV." Maxwell looked at her sympathetically. "You'll never be able to leave the house in the future."
"Mr. Ali!!" For the first time, the gentle Nia let out a loud cry.
Before she could call and ask what was going on with Zayn, why didn't she discuss it with her in advance and just say it in front of the reporters? Then Sam's phone rang wildly.
"Hey, hey, hey... Sam." Her tongue was trembling.
"Tell me, is it true?" Sam roared from the other end of the phone.
Nia knew that she must have seen the news. She lowered her head and said, "... It's true. We are together."
"Damn it! You didn't tell me immediately! Ah!" Sam went mad, as if she had seen her daughter find a boyfriend and get married outside alone. She was shocked and angry.
In the end, she cried and concluded, "Lovesickness, you've changed. I treat you as a sister and a passer-by! You didn't even tell me such good news. Tell me, do you regard me as an outsider?"
Nia covered the phone and apologized. "I'm sorry. In fact, my relationship with Zayn has just been settled. I'm going to call you in the afternoon, but I'm afraid that you will tease me. You know, I'm very thin- skinned, and I may need to discuss the engagement with him..."
"What the hell are you talking about?" Sam swore. "I'm telling you, if you don't want to be the young mistress of the Ali Enterprises in the future and give me a backer, I won't forgive you!"
"..." Nia was speechless again.
Sam roared for a while and finally calmed down. "Well, let's talk about it when we meet. Now, Lovesickness, I know your character. You must calm down. You can't be proud or forget yourself. You should know that there are many women who are looking at the unmarried Mr. Ali of Zayn!"
"Are you proud?"
Nia was speechless. Could she be proud of her current situation?
As Maxwell had said, she might not be able to leave the house in the future.
"And another one." Sam said, "Don't forget that Young Master has a mother. She is her biological mother. If she appears in the future, she will definitely compete with you for a man and a son. I heard that Kate is not a good person. You are so simple and innocent, how can you compete with White Lotus? You'd better seize the heart of Zayn before Kate comes out..."
After that, Sam's words kept floating in Nia's mind: Maxwell still had a mother. In the future, she would definitely compete with her for a man and a son. Now she wanted to win Zayn's heart!
After Zayn returned, Nia didn't say a word at dinner table.
Only Maxwell kept asking about their engagement, and Zayn answered normally. It seemed that he had already discussed this matter with Nia and she agreed.
Nia finally raised her head and looked at him slowly. "Mr. Ali, are we... really getting engaged?"
"Yes." Zayn's answer was still normal.
"Well, on TV..."
"I'm telling the truth."
"Why didn't you say it in advance?" Nia looked at him with grievance. "I'm not prepared at all. Didn't we agree that we just made a relationship between a man and a woman?"
"I told you too early, for fear of scaring you." Zayn was straightforward. "But I didn't tell you in advance that when I introduced you to Chloe, I said that you were my girlfriend and we would get engaged."
"Then... I thought you..."
"Just a word?" Zayn laughed. "That's what you think. I mean it."
Nia was speechless for a long time. At that time, she really thought that Zayn was just talking. He just wanted to show his determination in front of his ex-girlfriend to show that he was a reliable man. So Nia didn't even ask at that time.
"Why is he getting engaged from his girlfriend's date in one day?"
"Will it be too fast?" Nia asked, "Mr. Ali, I know what you're thinking. If you're trying to make me feel at ease..."
"This is also the Ali Enterprises's idea." Zayn did not listen to her nonsense. "In fact, my mother called a few days ago and said that we should go back when we have time. My grandma wants to get engaged for us. I didn't refuse."
In the end, Zayn gave her a "don't worry".
"But before we get engaged, you will still be my girlfriend for a while. You have enough time to be mentally prepared."
Maxwell blinked her bright eyes and said, "Nia, Nia, I told you, didn't I? I told you that Daddy is going to get engaged to you. You'll soon become my mother."
"Cough, cough!" Nia, who had just drunk a mouthful of soup, choked on it. She had been single for more than 20 years,and she had just found a boyfriend for a few days. Would she be promoted to be a stepmother soon?
Zayn looked at her reaction. "What, you don't want to?"
"Does this woman have any place to dislike me at this point in time?" He directly skipped the process of knowing her, and directly confirmed the relationship between men and women and got engaged to her. He trusted her!
Zayn was as arrogant as ever. He thought that Nia had no reason to refuse him!
"No, that's not it." Nia came back to her senses from Maxwell's 'mother' and calmed down. "I was surprised. I said that my willingness was to stay with you. If it's your idea to get engaged to you and it will help you, I won't refuse. I'll listen to you."
Looking at her well-behaved husband, Zayn liked her very much. "Then let's go back later. Now the Ali Enterprises will definitely welcome you to go back with me."
Nia slowly lowered her head. "Yes."
