Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 204

The eldest son in the family had never maintained a good relationship with Zoe. The wife of Andrew didn't like Zoe at all and gave him a hard time.

As raised in a family like that, Zoe developed a serious depression after he moved from D City to the Lu family in A Country.

He refused to take any treatment and said no to one-on-one counseling from psychologists. He preferred to take a natural route to getting rid of his depression, but it never happened. Last December, he even took too many sleeping pills to commit suicide and was just fortunate to still live.

Andrew treated his son like a stranger.

Today he had set this mourning hall here as a very pretentious move!

"Mr. Lu, you know very well how Zoe lived his life. Now that he is dead, I hope you could have some sympathy and honor him with a decent ceremony. You should also sincerely recognize him and his mother as part of your family." Harry held the weeping Lola in his arms and stared coldly at Andrew who apparently felt uneasy at his words. In his eyes, Andrew was feeling uncomfortably guilty.

Without hesitation, Harry continued, "This is not my business to be honest. I am in no position to even bother. However, he saved the lives of the Li family and the Si family. If you do what I say, I will treat you as my friend for the sake of Zoe. However, if you do not follow my instructions on this matter, you need to bear the consequences of it. Zoe is family to me and I do everything I can for my loved ones."

His threat was so obvious that Andrew changed his face in an instant. He understood the power of the Si family and the Li family. He didn't dare to fight them both. Therefore, he gave a forced smile and replied, "Of course you are right. Zoe was my son. I will surely give him a decent ceremony. Thank you."

With these words, he turned to his eldest son and ordered him to reserve a tomb at the PS graveyard. The PS graveyard was located in the eastern side of the capital of A Country. It was surrounded by beautiful mountains and lakes and was considered to be the most expensive graveyard in the whole A Country.

But in the mind of the eldest son, Zoe was merely a bastard in the Lu family. He did not deserve this expensive ceremony!

He cast a quick questioning look at his father and just buried his curse inside him. Without saying anything in return, he went off to reserve the tomb.

It was only after people heard about Harry's visit to the Lu family, that more of them showed up at the mourning hall.

Those who arrived early even had the chance to meet Harry Si in person.

After Harry paid his respect to Zoe's coffin, he took off with Lola, who had now calmed down a bit.

He opened the back door of the Maserati for her and then sat into the car himself.

Many people saw them taking off, but they all kept silent and didn't dare to talk to them.

Inside the car, Harry held Lola in a warm embrace. He could read the sadness in her eyes as she rested her head on his strong shoulder. How he wish he could just take her loneliness away. He really couldn't bear looking at her like this.

They did not talk to each other as Lola kept thinking about the past when Zoe was still alive and how they used to be so happy when they are together. Harry knew this and respected her silence. Harry looked at Lola with great pity as she held tightly onto Zoe's letter. Then he broke the silence and said to her, "Zoe would not rest in peace if you keep behaving like this. He did not have any regret in saving your life so you could be happy."

He loved her. He must have hoped dearly for her happiness!

"He will only rest in peace once you are happy again. Whenever we have some time, we will always visit his tomb."

Lola closed her eyes. She wiped away the tears as she sat up straight.

Yes! She needed to carry on with her life happily. She needed to be brave and move on! Zoe would love to see her happy, wouldn't he? It was just that all of these had happened so quickly and she had not been able to understand why and how.

She tried very hard to control her feelings while Harry's next words made her tears stream down her face again.

"I am leaving tomorrow morning. You need to take good care of yourself once I am gone. You are a strong woman, Lola. I have always believed in you."

Lola bit her bottom lip hard. Her heart trembled as she remembered Yolanda's words that they were going to have a wedding in three months' time!

Zoe left her and now it was his turn...

"Oh, just go!" It would be okay because she still had Nicole and her family!

Besides, she was confident to win him back. She could feel Harry coming back to her. She promised herself that she would try her best as she had nothing to lose!

Harry pressed her head against his chest. She could hear his strong heartbeat, a heart beating only for her. He wanted to kiss her like there was no tomorrow but he controlled himself and let go of her eventually. He did not want to hurt her again.

He hated himself for being like this but he had no choice. He wished that there was another universe where they could be together…and he could kiss her whenever he wanted to.

Lola stared at Harry with mixed feelings, as she opened the car door and went to sit on the driver's seat.

Harry opened the car door as well. Maybe this was goodbye already. His expensive leather shoes touched the ground as he was about to leave the car. Her steady voice spoke, "Mr. Si, I will see you off tomorrow as the acting CEO of the company!"

"I look forward to it!" He cast one final glance at her, hoping that she would also look back. She did not. Heartbroken, he left the car.

Harry returned to the Maybach. As Joey started the engine, Harry opened his mouth, "Use my private jet to send Yolanda and my parents to C Country. I will take a civilian flight tomorrow myself."

Joey was confused at this. What was he planning to do? The all-powerful and VIP, Harry Si, had decided to take a common flight. However, he did not question him at all. "Yes Boss!"
