Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan) novel Chapter 297

I watched as he stared at me in silence, then decided to hit him where it hurt. "You don't need to feel aggrieved. Do as you wish. I have no objections! But if you want to continue as the CEO of Medsafe Liyah Inc., you'll need to keep your nose clean. No more scandals. No more stirring up a storm."

"I won't!" Jaylan immediately promised.

I coldly retorted, "You're not afraid of losing face, but Medsafe Liyah Inc. is. Don't think that signing international contracts will solve everything. No conglomerate would want to collaborate with a company that's constantly involved in scandals. Being globally renowned conglomerates, their leaders are anything but ordinary. You'd better be honest and straightforward in your dealings, not resorting to cunning."

He nodded repeatedly, seeming genuinely submissive.

I continued, seizing the opportunity, "You should focus on the company's affairs! There's no point to constantly buy more properties. Don't play the game of having multiple hideouts with me!"

"Honey, I'm not! I just wanted to keep a few more..."

"Cut the crap! Keep a few more for what? For your secret dating?" I bluntly rebutted, then brought the topic back, looking at him and asking, "Have you lost your mind investing in real estate at this point?"

"Property values have plateaued and prices are on a downward spiral. The golden era for property speculation has passed. Are you sinking money into properties to hemorrhage it?" My words were sharp, but they were undeniable truths, leaving him no room for argument.

Seeing him silently taking my reprimands, I went on, "You have such a large corporation in Medsafe Liyah Inc., and now there's an international order. Isn't that enough for you to make a profit? Besides, isn't our villa big enough? If you think it's not, you can sell off those insignificant properties and buy a bigger one."

"I'll do whatever you want, okay?" Jaylan reached for my hand, caressing it, which irritated me.

I snapped, "But the thought of those properties just reminds me of unpleasant things. Don't try to play any tricks. I don't tolerate that. Since I've decided to leave you a way out, you'd better behave and fulfill your role as the CEO of Medsafe Liyah Inc. If you don't want to, let me know in advance. Don't make it hard for yourself!"
