Chapter 1713
He did not understand Tessa's intention for turning back and saying that.
“You are a relative to the Ford family. You are Director Ford’s brother-in-law. How can I still continue to stay in the Ford Group?” said Tessa coldly.
Zayn forced a smile. “Don’t worry. I am not a petty person. That’s a separate matter. We are broken up, but that doesn’t mean you can’t work at the Ford Group anymore. Besides, Director Ford is also not the kind of person you think he is. Us breaking up doesn’t affect your future at all.”
Tessa sneered, “what you said is nice to the ear, but will I be foolish enough to believe you?”
Zayn was speechless. There was a pause before he said calmly. “You can choose not to believe me.”
“So, I want you to compensate me for my loss! ” Tessa finally revealed her request.
Zayn was speechless, and then he suddenly laughed. “ Alright, how much do you want?”
“Ten million dollars.”
Zayn was speechless. He was not short of money. However, he never expected that the girl he had been dating for two months would actually demand so much. He had a great impression of her. It was so great that it made him feel heartbroken! 2
Zayn could not help but ask, “Could it be that there isn’t any affection between US at all?” 1
“Affection. Two months, what do you think?” asked Tessa ruthlessly.
Zayn was speechless. He did not regain his senses for a very long while. Early that morning, she was still holding his arms lovingly and she was planning their married lives in the future. It had only been more than an hour and she actually could say it so calmly that they had only been together for two months, so there was no affection between them?
Zayn muttered to himself in a self-deprecating manner, “Was it because I’m already old? I am already outdated?”
“That’s right! You’re already old! You’re a whole ten years older than me! We’re not suitable for each other! Alright! I strongly suspect that you’re tricking me, alright, old man! This kind of behavior of yours is cheesy and vulgar! Ten million dollars, and not a penny less!”
“Alright!” Zayn suddenly intercepted her words. “I will give you ten million dollars! ”
Coincidentally, he brought his briefcase with him when he left his house, and it so happened that he had a cheque in the briefcase, without any hesitation, he took out the cheque, wrote the sum of ten million dollars on it, and then handed it to Tessa.
“Get the hell away from the Ford Group immediately! If you don’t get lost, then I will have you fired.” After saying that, Zayn left without looking back at all.
