His Coy Lover

“Go to Winston’s Empire Group immediately.”

Pranav knew the best way to salvage the situation was to have someone witness him having a pleasant conversation with Charles or Randy. That would debunk the rumors.

“Dad, what about me?”

Burton also wanted to accompany his father to Winston.

Pranav glared at him, saying with dissatisfaction, “You think carefully whether you unintentionally offended Charles. Our two families have been peaceful, and trouble started when you went to Winston a few times.”

“It must be you! It’s you who told your mom that you want to propose to Zelda at the Roscente. This thing offended Winston. Burton, can’t you find a wife without competing with Winston?”

Pranav thought of this matter. Besides this, he couldn’t think of any other possibility of offending Winston.

“…Dad, it was our family that went to propose at the Roscente first.”

Winston came later; there was always a first-come, first-served aspect, right?

“Then it’s because Zelda, in order to marry you, went to Charles, cut her wrists, and attempted suicide to reject the marriage. Charles is using us to vent his anger.”

“But Dad, Charles said, as long as I get engaged to Zelda, he will definitely send generous gifts and attend our engagement party.” It was because Charles said this that he enthusiastically wanted to get engaged and married to Zelda.

Pranav couldn’t figure it out now. He threw a few words down, “In the future, stay away from Zelda. That woman is a disaster. Just her intense rejection methods indicate that marrying such a woman will bring trouble to her husband’s family.”

The Empire Group of the Winston.

Unfortunately, Charles had already left the company.

Zelda, who was having dinner with her mother, was still unaware of what had happened in the business world.

The mother and daughter enjoyed their meal peacefully, serving each other dishes.

With the hurried footsteps of Elle, the tranquil atmosphere between the mother and daughter was disrupted.

“Elle.”

Chris saw Elle rushing in, a face full of surprise, and asked with concern, “Elle, have you eaten? If not, eat with us.”

Elle tried hard to suppress her anger and forced a smile, “Mom, when I was taking care of my birth mother in the hospital, I already ate with her.”

Zelda put down a mouthful of food, glanced at Elle, and asked, “Hurried footsteps, fake smile. Elle, do you have something on your mind?”

“It’s nothing, Mom. You and Zelda continue eating. I’ll wait for Zelda in the hall. I have a few questions to ask her.”

What questions?

Half an hour later.

The two sisters, nominally, strolled along the shaded path in the villa area, seemingly taking a walk.

Only Zelda knew that Elle was trying hard to control her anger.

Zelda became more curious.

What did she inadvertently do to provoke Elle again?

Away from Roscente’s villa and others, in a quiet place, Elle stopped.

Turning around, she raised her hand to give Zelda a slap.

Zelda, with quick eyes and hands, grabbed her wrist.

“Elle, when did you start liking slapping people? If you hit me, have you considered the consequences? How do you explain it to Mom and Dad?”

Zelda shook off Elle’s hand with a smile on her beautiful face, appearing as if she was considering Elle, making Elle want to kill her.

In Elle’s eyes, Zelda at this moment was an extremely hypocritical person.

“Zelda, stop pretending in front of me. After returning for a year, your true colors are finally exposed. You just want to covet the Roscente’s fortune, that’s why you returned to the Roscente.”

“The Roscente is my home. The family property of the Roscente now belongs to my parents. Whoever my parents are willing to give it to in the future, they will give it to.”

Leaning towards Elle, Zelda approached her face, the beautiful face was close at hand, making Elle want to scratch it!

“Elle, you came back so anxiously and brought me here. Away from Mom’s sight, what questions do you want to ask me?”

She straightened up, her expression becoming stern. “Elle, if you want to make trouble for me, find a good reason. Recently, I haven’t provoked or offended you! ”

“Zelda, did you speak ill of Burton in front of Charles? Did you instigate Charles against Lowell? Zelda, have you lost your mind? Where did Burton offend you? Just because he didn’t find time to visit you when you were injured, are you still holding a grudge now?”

“You love Burton so much, right? Is this the way you love him?”

“Zelda, are you trying to make Charles go against Lowell? When Lowell is in a desperate situation, you can then act as a savior in front of Burton, telling him that you can help Lowell, making Burton forever grateful to you?”

“Zelda, Burton has said he will marry you. Do you still need to resort to such low tactics? Shameless!”

Without giving Zelda a chance to speak, Elle’s accusations kept coming one after another.

“Did something happen to Lowell?”

Zelda asked.

“Yes, Lowell is facing a crisis. Are you satisfied now? Did you spread the rumor that Lowell offended Winston?”

From Elle’s series of questioning, Zelda guessed the general situation.

Looking at the frustrated Elle, Zelda coolly said, “Elle, that’s Lowell’s business, not ours at the Roscente. Do you need to be so anxious about it? Bringing me here and repeatedly blaming me for this?”

“And please, before you accuse me, find out clearly what I have done. Falsely accusing someone can have light or heavy consequences.”

Elle’s concern for Burton was vivid in her eyes.

Let’s see how Elle will encourage her and Burton to be together in the future.

“…”

Elle was briefly speechless.

She also realized that her reaction was too intense.

After receiving this news, she was worried about Lowell and Burton. Impulsively, she came back to hold Zelda accountable.
