Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan) novel Chapter 169

My dad sat there, exuding an air of confidence and stability, telling me what a rock meant.

"So, go ahead and do what you want to do! Whatever you decide, you have my unconditional support!" Dad said, his demeanor demonstrating a total disregard for any potential obstacles.

"Dad! What are you going to do with Gemma?" I asked, expressing my concern for this matter in my voice.

"Let's keep her around for now. She can be useful and is the best way to pass information to Jaylan!" Dad's words instantly enlightened me about his intentions. Indeed, some information would only be convincing if delivered through her.

"But we must be careful. I'm afraid the Dawson family might resort to foul play." I voiced my concern. If Jaylan could drug me through Zora, he wouldn't spare my parents, either.

Dad picked up on the additional implication in my words and asked, "Tell me, what's the story behind your sickness?"

I sighed, picked up my cup of coffee and took a sip to steady my nerves. I knew I couldn't hide these things from my dad, who was as smart as a fox. So, I told him everything, which left him shaking with anger.

He finally spoke, "Dear lord! My daughter has survived a great disaster, and she's bound to have good fortune in the future! ,I won't let that bastard get away with this! No way!”

"I'm afraid they might target you, considering their method of operation. Since they have planted this woman near you, they surely have ill intentions. We must be on our guard," I continued, feeling uneasy about Gemma.

"Don't worry about that. Getting rid of her would be a piece of cake! But now that she's here, we can't let her leave without bearing the consequences," Dad replied, his tone sharp.

"If necessary, let's use some tactics. It's better than living in constant fear," I suggested, looking at Dad worriedly.

Dad chuckled. "Ronan suggested we monitor her, too, but I don’t think it’s necessary. You see, that bastard doesn't know my intentions, my strong power, or our financial strength. He won't make a move just yet!"
