A Beautiful Misunderstanding

Chapter 338 She Was A Loser Though She Defeated Leila

"Aunt Mary, don't listen to her. She must be lying to you. The baby was born secretly with her and Hanson in America. She said this because she wanted to cover up the fact that she cheated on Zac in America. " Leila hurried to explain, fearing that Mary would believe Essie.

Of course, Mary didn't believe what Essie said. In her eyes, she was a skittish tramp. It was normal for her to do this. But she had to prove it. Since Essie denied all the accusations, she had to wait until she made it clear in private.

"I know. I can tell whether it's black or white." Mary said in her usual soft tone.

Essie didn't want to talk to them anymore and went to the kitchen to cook. Since Zac had lost his memory, his patience had dropped a lot. He was sure to be furious if he saw the stewed beef brisket with radish didn't finished.

Since Mary and Leila wanted to stay for dinner, Essie cooked a few more dishes.

As soon as she heard the sound of door opening, she rushed over, took his slippers from the shoe cabinet and respectfully placed them next to the man's feet.

The man was very satisfied with her politeness. Although he hated her very much, he enjoyed her service, especially in the evening. So he kept her for the moment. He took off his coat and threw the briefcase to her. She went upstairs with it. When she came downstairs, she saw that Zac was talking to Mary. "Mommy, why didn't you call me before you came here with Leila?"

"We are not outsiders. Do I need to make an appointment by phone?" Mary said to Zac, pretending to be angry with him.

"Dinner is ready. Let's eat now. They won't taste good when they are cold." Essie went into the kitchen and prepared dinner for him.

As soon as Zac sat down, she picked up a brisket and handed it to his mouth. "Have a try. Does it taste good?"

Zac was pleased to eat it, but his face was as cold as ice. After swallowing it, he opened his thin lips and said in a light voice, "Not bad."

Hearing that, Essie knew that he was praising her. So with a faint smile on her face, she sat down beside him.

"Mommy, Miss Leila, you came here in a hurry, so I only prepared some home cooking dishes. Hope you don't mind." She said in a very polite tone. Even if she did not like someone, she had to be generous and discreet.

Mary's lips curled into a sinister smile. But there was no smile in her eyes, only coldness and insidiousness. She didn't need to be polite here. Nor did she want to pretend to be friendly to Essie.

"Don't be so formal with us. We are not outsiders."

"Zac has lost his memory now. In his eyes, Miss Essie is like an outsider, isn't she?" Leila took over Mary's words. She said it in a joking tone deliberately, as if she was just joking, but her smile was full of provocation.

"It doesn't matter, he will get familiar with me." With a light smile on her face, Essie said in a peaceful tone. After that, she picked up another brisket and placed it in front of his mouth. "Honey, eat more," she said.

Zac glared at her and opened his mouth reluctantly. It was very obvious that he did not want to cooperate, and even wanted to hurt her with outsiders. But unconsciously, a thought of protecting her came out. And this idea did not come to him only recently. Since he was in hospital, it often appeared. Was it the fault of losing memory?

Leila's face turned blue. Mary patted her on her hand to comfort her. Mary believed that Leila still had a chance to win Zac' heart because Leila was different from Valery. Valery had never won Zac's heart, but Leila had been in love with him for so many years, so she knew that Zac had loved Leila very much in the past. If it wasn't for the family, they would definitely not break up.

After dinner, Mary called Zac to the study alone. Now that he had lost his memory, it was a perfect opportunity to get rid of Essie. She couldn't miss it.

"Zac, I have something to tell you."

"If you have anything to say, just say it out. Do you need to beat about the Bush?" Zac shrugged.

"Well, then I'll be frank with you. I can't bear to have another daughter-in-law like Essie. If she's here, I'll definitely be unhappy." She sighed deeply.

"Doesn't she respect you?" Zac frowned.

"She has always been hostile to me. She has gone too far. I'm really pissed off," "If you really want to be good to me, divorce her as soon as possible. Out of sight, out of mind."

"Mommy, I can understand how you feel." Zac held her shoulders and said, "I don't like her either. My head ached every time I saw her. But if we can't find a suitable person to substitute her, we'll keep her for the moment. "

Mary was stunned. She didn't know whether he was telling the truth or just saying the opposite. "There are so many women in Dragon City. Can't you find a substitute for her?"

"I can't find one." Zac said firmly. "She is now the CEO of Hengyuan and the head of the Xu's Group. Can you find another woman like her in Dragon City?"

"Our family has everything in the world. Do you still care about it?" Said Mary scornfully.

"No, you're wrong." Zac shook his hand and said, "business always takes the strategy of strong joint forces. The Jing family, Xu family and Qin family are all powerful families. As long as both of them cooperate together, they are likely to surpass our Rong family."

"So what? Do you think the other families will scramble to marry her after you divorce her?" "There are so many rich girls. If they want to marry one, why did they her who has divorced?"

Zac leaned against the back of the sofa and propped up the back of his head with both hands. "If I married that nominal girl, she would be nothing but a vase in front of me. But Essie is different. Marrying her means that I get the whole Xu's Group. Who doesn't want her? If I'm divorcing her now, then I am the most stupid man in the world. Grandpa and grandma might be so angry that they even cancel my right of inheritance. "

Was it so serious?

Mary cast a warning glance at her son. She thought he was just exaggerating the situation and trying to frighten her. It was hard to keep the position of the president of the company for Cathy. Of course Elizabeth wouldn't let her go easily. In her eyes, kicking out Essie was the most important thing. The more she knew about it, the more threatening it would be to her. As for the commercial interest, that was the man's business, which had nothing to do with her. She just needed to clean the backyard.

"According to what you said, I have to be pissed off by her, don't I?" She curled her lips with displeasure.

"How come?" Zac sat up and patted her on the shoulder. "If you have any problem in the future, just call me. I'll go back to the Rong Mansion so that you don't need to meet her. I won't take her back to the Rong Mansion except for family festivals. It is better for you not to see her and don't take her as your daughter-in-law."

Mary didn't get any comfort in such a solution. What she wanted was not a solution like this, but to drive Essie away from him and from the Rong family, and never ever appear in her world. But what Zac had said was like taking a corkscrew to block her mouth. In this way, she couldn't mention divorce any more.

"You waste time with Essie. What about Leila? It's not easy for you two to get together. Do you just let her go?"

"I don't think so." Zac sighed.

"You still have her in your heart, right?" Asked Mary.

"I think being friends with her is the best choice," Zac replied nonchalantly. In Mary's eyes, he was avoiding her deliberately. As long as he didn't deny it, he still had feelings for Leila. They started to date in middle school. It was impossible for them to forget each other after so many years. As long as they managed to rekindle their relationship, it would be possible for Mary to drive Essie away? All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

The door of the study was not locked. There was a slight gap. Essie changed her clothes in the room and walked out. When she passed by the study, she indistinctly heard what they were talking about.

Essie's heart jolted as she suddenly had a feeling that she was trapped in a conspiracy. Was Zac coveting the Xu's Group? He didn't divorce her because he wanted to annex the Xu's Group.

She couldn't help but shiver. After memory loss, he became so strange and completely another person.

He was a capitalist. His interest was always put in the first place. After he lost his memory, his affection for her disappeared, and all he cared about was his interest.

Now, in his mind, their marriage was nothing more than a political marriage.

While she was thinking, a strong sense of bitterness rose from her chest, turned into tears which slid down her cheeks and dropped into her clothes.

Was that the situation she was in now?

In the future, she should be more careful. She couldn't trust him completely, let alone rely on him without any precautions. From the beginning of mutual use, they might be completely over because of mutual use of each other.

She wiped off her tears and went downstairs as if nothing had happened. Then, she sat down on the sofa, picked up a cup of hot juice, and drank it slowly.

"Haven't Zac and aunt Mary come down yet?" Leila asked.

"They must be talking." Essie replied faintly.

"Are they talking about the divorce?" Leila sneered, making no secret of her provocation.

"Let's be realistic, Miss Leila." The corners of Essie's mouth lifted into a very deep smile. "Do you think that Zac will give up a billionaire like me and marry a worthless nobody like you?"

Leila trembled with fear and asked, "What... What do you mean? "

"He could give up on you for his family before. Now, in his eyes, profit is more important than love." There was a sense of bitterness in her voice. He was no longer the icy guy who used to be so good to her. He was just a business tycoon.

"Don't misunderstand him. You know nothing about him." Leila raised her voice, as if she was irritated by her.

"You grew up in a wealthy family. You are familiar with political marriage, aren't you? The past you can't be with him because of your family feud. Now you are worthless, so you can't be with him as well. You'd better to see it clearly. " There was a touch of sadness in Essie's eyes. She felt sorry for Leila as well as for herself. She was a loser though she defeated Leila.
