Chapter 300 Mom's Ambition
Zac darkened his face.
'Holy, can you stop being a jerk?'
"You little boy, what do you know?" Zac rubbed Holy's hair indignantly.
"A fair lady is a gentleman's good mate! Sister Essie is so beautiful and excellent that there are so many men chasing her. If you don't take action now, she will surely be taken away by someone." Holy laughed cunningly, deliberately making him feel threatened.
A touch of rage flitted across his face. He knew that Hanson was annoying enough. Now even his biological brother wanted to ruin his reunion with Essie. Humph, nobody can take his woman. Nor can his own brother.
"You brat, I think you should remind your sister that a rich and handsome man like me is always chased by women. If she doesn't take the initiative, I can't guarantee that I will keep a integrity for her all the time." He also had to give this puzzled and empty look a top, let her sober up and have a sense of crisis.
Taking another gulp of tea, she couldn't help but spit it out. She heard joke words -- "keep a integrity!".
"Icy guy, you keep your integrity for me? Is that a joke? "
"How did you get the idea that I was joking?" Zac said and the corners of his mouth turned solemn.
Essie was shocked. He had been with Leila for more than three years. How could they not have sex?
She didn't believe it, no matter what.
"Do you think I am so naive and gullible?" She gave him a ferocious stare and said, "there are women who often go to your house. If you can keep your integrity, then the pigs can fly in the sky."
Taking a sip of tea unhurriedly, Zac said with a calm and honest look, "I remember you've checked it on the yacht the other day? Do I look like to be with many women? "
Essie's face flushed red again. It seemed that he was right. He was just like a giant lion which hadn't tasted meat for a long time. She suddenly remembered that Holy was still next to her. She cleared her throat and quickly let him go upstairs to take a nap. He had classes in the afternoon.
As soon as Holy left, there was nobody in the living room. Zac pulled her into his arms and said, "do you believe it now?"
"How can you still linger around with such a beauty?" Essie squinted at him with a mischievous smile. All of a sudden, the fury in her heart was gone and her breath was light.
"You know the rules of our family. Leila and I can only be good friends." He explained it slowly. There were too many rivals in love, so he needed to play soft tricks.
Essie lowered her eyes. She knew, in his eyes, power was more important than beauty. For the Rong's Group, he must give up Leila. But it did not mean that he did not love her in his heart. She was always the most important person in his heart, and Essie was only a substitute.
"You must be hungry. I asked Philly to cook shrimp porridge for you. Go and eat it now." She quietly ended this topic.
"You still care about me." The corners of Zac' mouth lifted. His dry heart seemed to be nourished by a drop of water, regaining a glimmer of life.
Essie sighed in her heart. Leila was not the only obstacle between them, there would be an insurmountable barrier. The feud between the two families of the prior generation was doomed to be irreparable. Lucy didn't accept her son-in-law Zac, and Mary didn't accept her daughter-in-law Essie, either. Their marriage wouldn't be blessed, and it would only arouse old hostility.
Not long after Zac left, she received a call from Eva. As soon as the new drama was completed, she rushed back to Dragon City and was eager to see her.
"What a vicious woman you are! You've been leaving for three and a half years, but you didn't even call me once. Do you still regard me as your best friend?"
In the apartment, Eva was filled with anger. It was not that Essie didn't want to contact her, but that Eva was a signed artist under the Sino Star. It would be terrible if she confessed her whereabouts to Zac in case she couldn't bear the pressure.
"Eva, do you feel good to be a star?" Essie tried to change the topic.
"Of course I am happy to hear that. Jim will never ask me extra actress again." Eva grinned. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
"Do you and King Jing start a war as soon as you meet each other?" Essie raised her eyebrows slightly. Since the War Emperor, Eva and Jim didn't cooperate with each other anymore. It seemed that their relationship hadn't been eased yet.
Eva pouted and explained, "when you put fire and water together, the water would be burned out or the fire would be extinguished. Do you think you can coexist water with fire?"
"Do you still keep in touch with Mandy?" Essie asked, sighing. She was more concerned about Mandy.
Eva frowned. "In the past three years, apart from you, the biggest change was Mandy. I don't know if she was suffering a great blow, or was she simply out of her mind to seduce an old man. That old man
was almost 50 years old, and he was two rounds older than Mandy. She had a family and a career, and neither did she want a name, nor did she want money and interests. I really don't know what she wanted with that old man. Could she be in love? " As Eva spoke, she shook her head and sighed. She couldn't figure it out. She really couldn't.
Essie thought it strange, too. Based on Mandy's character, she wouldn't give up her hope merely because of the fat pig. Was Bles charming enough to make her fall in love with him?
"Have you ever asked about her?" Essie smoothed back the hair on her forehead. Eva was a forthright woman. Essie believed that she wouldn't keep this question a secret.
"I wanted to ask her, but every time I called her, she said she didn't have time. It seemed that she didn't want to see me." Eva pouted, "I guess she doesn't even want to be a friend with me."
Essie frowned slightly. Mandy was very cold to her in the chamber of Commerce of commerce that day. It seemed that she didn't want to see her at all. She could understand that Mandy had a grudge against her. After all, too many things had happened between them. But was it too much for Mandy to treat Eva coldly?
"We three have decided to be friends forever. I didn't expect Mandy to be like this." Essie lowered her head dejectedly.
"Yes." Eva sighed and reached out her hands to hug her. "Essie, you are my only best friend now. You can't disappear anymore."
Essie nodded. She was a little sad at the thought that they would seldom to meet each other when she lived in America forever.
"How long will you stay here?"
"I'm planning to take a month off. We can have a good gathering then." Eva leaned on the sofa and sipped the ice black tea.
"That's great!" With her thick eyelashes fluttering, Essie seemed to have thought of something and asked in a low voice, "Eva, although I'm not in Dragon City, I've never missed any news about you. Are you really dating with Vinton?"
"No. his romantic history can be written into a book. I don't dare to date him." Eva shook his head.
Hearing that, Essie was relieved. That's good! She had a piece of pitaya. When she was about to ask Eva to go Summer 100 Degree, the doorbell rang.
Eva took a glance through the peephole and found it was nobody else but Vinton. This guy had known her whereabouts well. As soon as she came back, he came to her.
Essie was a little surprised to see him too. He showed up right after they mentioned him. It was really true that he spoke of the devil and he came here.
"Mr. Xu, as a public figure, there are many paparazzi watching outside the apartment. Aren't you afraid of being photographed when you come in so directly?"
"OK, I'll take them. I just want everyone to know that Eva is my girlfriend." Said Vinton with a shrug. He had been chasing after Eva for three years, but he still couldn't win her heart. But a man was always like this. The more they couldn't get someone, the more they wanted to get her. Especially someone like Vinton who was beautiful, rich and powerful, women came to him voluntarily. It was boring for him. It was rare to meet a girl as hot as Eva, which was worth challenging.
Eva was used to it and didn't care about it at all. "Vinton, your father was in a coma in the hospital, and your sister was missing. As the eldest son, don't you need to go back and take charge of the company?
How can you be as usual?"
Vinton threw up his hands and said, "Now it is your best friend who are in charge with that company, so I can do nothing about it."
Startled, Eva turned around to Essie and said, "what are you doing, Essie? When you come back, you should go back to Summer 100 Degree. Why do you go to his company?"
"Mr. Xu's dad handed the company over to his sister. She happens to be a good friend I know in the United States. She has left Dragon City for a long time and doesn't know much about the place. So she asked me to come back to help her. I couldn't refuse and I agreed." Essie couldn't make any mistake in front of Vinton, or Elizabeth would hear it soon.
"I thought you came back to take revenge on our family for the feud between you and my sister." Vinton muttered in a low voice.
"Mr. Xu, you misunderstood me. I'm not narrow-minded. I don't want to mention the grudge between I and your sister anymore." Then, with a shake of her head, Essie thought, 'in addition to being naughty, Vinton is actually very simple in her mind, unlike Elizabeth and Valery, who are vicious and full of schemes and wicked ideas.
"That's good." Vinton shrugged. He didn't want to make enemy with her as she was Eva's best friend, and he never hated beautiful women.
Eva hand Vinton a bottle of milk tea and said, "Vinton, your father is not going to let your sister take over the Xu's Group, is he?"
"How could it be possible? She is a woman and sooner or later she will get married. Handing over the Xu's Group to her is equivalent to handing it over to an outsider." He didn't believe his father would be so stupid.
Essie glanced at him and slowly said, "in fact, I've been wondering since you're the next chairman of the company after something happened to your father and sister. Why would your mother be seated? Is it because she wants to destroy your position as the crown prince and take it herself?"
A touch of depression flitted across Vinton's face. To be honest, he had the same idea.
