Zayn waved his hand in approval to let her off. After Bethany left, he answered the call.
The person over the line immediately went off like a bullet train, leaving no room for him to utter a single word first, “Zayn, have you considered my suggestion last night? That place has such good fortune, and you can't afford to miss this opportunity."
Zayn said coldly, "Dimitri I've told you before that I don't agree on migrating father's grave. I also don't believe in anything about such fortunes. Just give up already!"
"Zayn, why are you so stubborn? Even though you don't believe it, your uncle does! The fortune master already explained, the Meyer family will be able to advance one step further if we move your father's grave to that place." Zayn's uncle Dimitri Meyer uttered unsatisfyingly.
Zayn narrowed his eyes and threatened, Dimitri, I'm not clueless about what your real intentions are. You just want to own the piece of land where my father is buried."
When he heard this, Dimitri was first in shock, then exposed himself and couldn't bother to keep up with the act anymore. He sneered coldly, "Alright kid since you already found out, then I'll say it once and for all. That land will be mine!"
Dimitri hung up the call right after he finished his sentence
The screen then returned to its main page Zayn stared at the screen as his body grew cold and terrified.
At this moment, Gael came in with some documents. He seemed to have some information to report. However, he analyzed Zayn's expression and asked, Mr. Meyer, what's wrong?”
"Prepare the car. I'm going back to the mansion” zayn ordered while he kept his phone.
Gael noted in response and acted accordingly.
Zayn was very quick on his way back to Meyer's mansion.
He peered at the scenery passing by outside the window, his eyes full of obscurity. Bent must've urged the main family to bring up the idea of moving the father's grave.
What did they want to do with that piece of land? The car stopped as he thought of this question.
Gael turned around and announced to Zayn, "Mr. Meyer we're here!”
Zayn collected himself and got off the vehicle. He then walked into the house with a solemn expression.
It was already nine o'clock at night when he finished dealing with Dimitri and worshiped his father.
Gael drove him back to the villa where he usually stays. His senses picked up a fragrant overpowering perfume smell when he entered the door and frowned.
"Zayn." Danica was happy about Zayn's return and greeted him in a hurry, "Have you been drinking?"
Zayn took one step to the side. He avoided her and asked seriously, "What are you doing here?”
"It's you father's death anniversary today. I was afraid you'd be sad, so I came to visit you." Danica explained and reached for his working bag as a wife would, Zayn avoided it and shouted mercilessly," Ms. Sue!”
Ms. Sue, who was busy in the kitchen walked out briskly, "Sir, you're back?"
“Who allowed her in the house? Zayn pointed toward Danica and said in a poor tone, "Haven't I said this before? No one should be let inside as long as I'm not around?". Zayn said with a tone filled with anger and resentment. His expressions darkened at this point as well.
Ms. Sue glanced at Danica, "Sir, I figured that Ms. Medina was your fiancée and that you'll be married to her anyway, so...”
"Your bonus will be deducted this month!'
Zayn didn't want to hear any more of this and issued a punishment straightaway.
Ms. Sue smiled bitterly, "Yes Sir."
"Zayn, what is the meaning of this?" Danica stared at zayn with a gaze filled with disgruntlement.
He punished Ms. Sue for letting her inside, and this showed how she wasn't welcomed here.
Zayn didn't intend to answer her question. He pressed his eyebrows in exhaustion and gave her an eviction order, You can leave now!"
“No, I won't leave. Danica took a step and blocked zayn, Besides visiting you, I'm also here on my father's call. He wanted to ask you about when we're getting married, seeing that we've been engaged for so many years already. ”
“Hm?” Zayn's pupils constricted slightly, he glanced at her for a few seconds and replied plainly, "I don't intend to marry anytime soon."
“Why? Danica initially blushed a little, but her face quickly turned pale. She didn't understand why it was so difficult to get married when the engagement went so smoothly!
She was at the final step of becoming their wife of Zayn, but he just didn't want to propose!
As she thought about this, Danica clenched her fists and felt dissatisfied, "Zayn, I've waited for five years. How long more are you going to make me wait?"
“If you don't want to wait, feel free to just give up!” Zayn loosened his tie, brushed over her, and headed upstairs.
Danica bit her lip and stared at his back. She couldn't believe her eyes.
What did he mean? Did he want her to annul the marriage? Impossible, she would never annul it! Danica tore her eyes off him and walked out of the villa all gloomily.
Upstairs, Zayn opened his room door and sensed the same perfume smell again.
His face fell, "Ms. Sue, you even permitted her to enter my room?”
Ms. Sue stood on the stairs of the first floor, she peered up and said, "I didn't, Ms. Medina said she wanted to tour around for a bit, so I let her off on her own, I never knew she would have thought entering your room, Sir.”
When he heard this, Zayn's temples bulged. He had shut the door and made his way downstairs, and then headed for the portrait.
"Where are you going, Sir?" Ms. Sue followed behind him and asked.
Zayn changed his shoes and said coldly, "Arrange someone to thoroughly clean the villa. I'll come back once everything is done." He then opened the door and went out, started his car, and left the villa.
At Royal Garden.
Bethany had just finished making her night coffee and placed it on the table to work. . She pinched her sore neck and walked out of the room.
Suddenly, she heard a loud thump that came from outside her door.
“ What's going on?” Bethany was frightened. She thought something happened and hurriedly opened the door. She then saw a tall man who collapsed in her doorway.
It was clear to see that the loud bang was caused by this man when he fell to the ground.
“Hello, are you alright? Bethany approached him and lightly nudged the man with her foot.
He didn't move a single muscle, Bethany bent down ever so slightly to check on
the man and a strong stench of alcohol came from him.
She scowled at the smell at first, but then reached out to turn him over. A familiar face had appeared in her vision.
Why would he get drunk and come here!?
Bethany couldn't believe what she was seeing and widened her eyes, how come it was him?
With no time to consider, Bethany shook the man a few times, "Mr. Meyer? Mr. Meyer!?”
Zayn suddenly opened his eyes, the eyes lit up, and then he sat up on the ground.
Once he saw that the person in front of him was Bethany, he relaxed and said, "It's you?"
"Yes." Bethany helped him up and asked, "Mr. Meyer, how come you're here drunk and passed out on the ground?"
There were two units at that level. One was hers while the other was empty. If she had gone to bed, he might have had to lay on the ground for the entire night.
"I live here." Zayn shook his dizzy head and said in a raspy voice.
Bethany was stunned and asked, "You live here? That unit? She pointed towards the door opposite hers.
Zayn paused for a moment and then his expression turned gloomy. He could not answer her question as he also did not know why.
He had numerous properties and could have easily gone to any one of them. When he was about to make the decision he suddenly felt the need to see her.
Thus, he drove right over.
On seeing that Zayn was hesitant in answering, Bethany thought that she should not have asked the question. She quickly changed the topic and said, 'Mr. Meyer. I'll go and make some soup for you.”
After saying this, she left the apartment Zayn had fallen asleep when she came back with the soup. it looked like he would not need the soup Bethany looked down at the bowl of soup. She then placed the bowl of soup on the coffee table.
She went back to her apartment to look for a blanket to cover Zayn and was about to leave Just as she was about to leave, she felt someone holding onto her hand.
Bethany thought that Zayn had woken up and turned immediately to see. However, she found him still asleep and must have dreamt of something that made him grab her hand.
“Mr. Meyer, can you release my hand? Bethany bent down and whispered twice to Zayn.
But Zayn did not react and did not wake up as before. Bethany could only try to pry her hand from Zayn.
However, the more she tried, the tighter Zayn grabbed her from the other end, Bethany gave up and wondered when he would release her.
Then, the cell phone in her pocket started to ring Bethany sighed and took out her phone to have a look.
She answered and said, "Vella”
“Benny, are you asleep? A gentle and young woman's voice came over the phone. Bethany glared at Zayn and said, "No, I haven't."
How could she go back home when he was grabbing her? Not to mention going to bed.
"Okay, that's great. I was afraid that I might wake you up.” Vella chuckled.
Bethany sat beside Zayn and asked, “ Vella, why did you call me at this hour?"
“Nothing. I just want to inform you that I have decided to go back next month to visit my grandparent's grave. Vella replied.
Bethany remarked, "Okay, I'll pick you up at the airport.
“Okay,” Vella nodded, Then have an early rest. I won't disturb you anymore.”
“Okay, Bethany replied.
She kept her phone after the call and was wondering if she should wake Zayn up. Then Zayn seemed to be mumbling.
Bethany could not hear clearly and placed her ear next to his mouth and asked, "Mr. Meyer, what did you say?”
"Dad..." Zayn grabbed Bethany's hand tighter and begged, "Don't leave. I will listen to grandfather, please don't leave…”
dad? Bethany was stunned and never expected that zayn would be calling out to his father in his dreams. She then remembered that Zayn's Father had passed away when he was very young.
No one seemed to know under what circumstances did they die and the Meyer family never made that public. It had been a mystery.
"Okay, I won't leave. I won't leave. Bethany patted the back of Zayn's hand like she was consoling a child.
She was also a mother and she was moved when she saw that he missed his father. She decided not to wake him up. Perhaps he was reunited with his father in his dreams at that moment.
Perhaps zayn heard Bethany's voice and calmed down. However, his grip on Bethany's hand did not loosen. In fact, each time she tried to move, he would tighten his grip as if he was afraid that she would leave.
Bethany could only wait. She started to yawn continuously and it was very late but Zayn still did not release her. In the end, she was so tired that she fell asleep on the sofa.
