Chapter 412 The Most Familiar Stranger
Almost at the same time, they looked away, mercilessly splitting their eyes contact, and then drank a mouthful of champagne, borrowing the alcohol to numb the severe pain in the heart.
The action was so tacit as if it had been set in advance. Even if two people were separated from each other, the connection between them would not disappear or change.
Looking at them, Albert sighed deeply. His son suddenly divorced Essie and married Leila. It was so abnormal. He couldn't understand it at all. Most importantly, it was harmful to the Rong family. He believed that his son would understand. He hoped that Zac could be stupid for the moment and that there would be still room for him to reconcile with Essie.
"The Xu family and the Qin family will have a lot of cooperation in the future." Alice opened her mouth suddenly, which broke the peace on the table.
She deliberately reached out and held Fell's arm. Fell was slightly shocked, but he didn't pull his arm out. He just smiled and said, "of course our Qin family is willing to establish a cooperative relationship with Xu's Group."
"What a big surprise!" One of the directors said with a smile. The business was changeable, so was the affection.
"I also didn't expect that the children have grown up and many things are not up to us." Fell's father said with a big smile. He had been hoping that his son could get married with Essie, but he didn't expect that Fell would fall in love with Alice so soon. Whether Essie or Alice was the same good to Qin family.
"I will take over the Xu's Group with Essie together." The gentle and soft words of Alice shocked everyone in the hall. Take charge together? It was a new word. Everyone knew that a mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. Even relatives would have different opinions and had a dispute.
A deep expression flashed through Zac' eyes. He knew that Alice was not easy to deal with. It was definitely not a coincidence that Alice came back this time. She came here to compete with Essie for power.
"Alice, I heard that you have lost your memory. You'd better pay attention to your health first. Find a brain doctor for you. It's a big problem." He used a dragonfly tone, as if it was a kind care.
Alice raised her eyebrows. "Thanks for your concern, my ex-brother-in-law. I just lost my memory and have a normal brain. It won't affect my working ability. And it was too tired for Essie to manage the Xu's Group alone. The burden is too heavy for her, so of course I should help her with it. "
"It's a good thing to share the burden. Don't make more troubles." Zac's deep eyes reflected a sharp cold light. When Alice felt that he wanted to see through her, she almost subconsciously lowered her eyes to cover her perhaps leaking pupils.
"Fell." She called him in a very low voice and asked him for help. Fell and Zac were sworn enemies to each other. Since Alice was on his side, he would certainly defend her.
"Zac, you are not the son-in-law of the Xu family anymore. They will deal with the affairs of the Xu family themselves. Don't worry."
"I wish you could marry into the Xu family," A unfathomable cold smile d
te direction, and the man who was greeting her was the last person he wanted to see -- Hanson.
Hanson came back home from abroad today. Bella had set up a branch company in Europe, and he had been dealing with the branch company there during this period of time.
The day before yesterday, he received a call from Alice, who told him that Zac had been pestering Essie. He was very worried about her, so he came back in a hurry.
As soon as he got off the plane, he drove straight to Dragon City without taking his luggage home.
"Do you miss me?" His eyes were full of love and missing.
"Yes." Essie nodded, and she was overwhelmed by deep guilt.
He reached out and held her in his arms, kissing her regardless of the eyes of the people around.
Zac's heart wrenched. He was once again desperate and once again dejected. He fell back to the seat and pressed his chest. It was painful, as if a dagger was mercilessly twisting and causing him to be bloody and blurred.
The light of the setting sun disappeared from the horizon.
His eyes turned dark, so did the evening glow.
He couldn't recall how he came back to the villa by the lake. He suffered so much that he was out of breath that he almost lost his memory.
He didn't return to the villa. He sat alone by the lake and gazed at the Barbie doll in his hand.
"Don't hang out with others. When I grow up, I'll come back to you. I'll be back..."
He had never forgotten her innocent and serious face. Even if he had a hidden disease because of her, he had never really hated her.
God was a kidding guy.
He had found her back by accident, but she had already fallen in love with someone else and had no place for him anymore.
He thumped his forehead in distress. With a flick of his finger, the doll fell into the lake.
In a hurry, he reached out to catch the doll, but it was sinking into the dim lake.
"Didn't you say that you couldn't sleep alone? If I'm not around in the future, you can sleep with it..."
Her voice echoed in his ears, and his heart trembled violently. He jumped into the lake recklessly.
