Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan)

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 Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

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!"

"Honey, rest assured. I've learned my lesson this time, and I'll never disappoint you again!" Jaylan's

words, I must say, were less than convincing.

"That's enough! I'm tired!" I withdrew my hand, stretched lazily, and yawned.

Jaylan immediately stood up. "Then you better get some sleep! It is getting pretty late, and since you

don't want me to stay here, I'll take my leave!"

"Mm-hmm," I responded indifferently. But he didn't leave immediately.

I glanced at him and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"Oh, right! When you're feeling better, we need to go back to Silverdale City!" Jaylan cautiously brought

up the subject.

Casting a glance his way, I noticed his fists clench nervously, revealing his eagerness to return

"Mm-hmm, we'll talk about it when I get home!" I closed my eyes again and lazily said, "I do miss Carl!"

Jaylan's voice immediately brightened. "Yes, I miss Carl too! Okay, honey, I'll go now. Have a good rest!

I'll pick you up tomorrow!"

I didn't respond, pretending to be asleep. I didn't want to talk to him anymore, just hoping he'd leave

soon. Seeing me silent, he stood by my bed for a while before turning and instructing Hannah, "Take

good care of her, and let me know if anything happens!"

Then I heard the sound of his footsteps leaving.

I suddenly opened my eyes and said to Hannah, "Have someone follow him See where he goes."
