Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Mio Walsh was a seasoned veteran, and compared to him, Zachary was nothing but a novice. A single question was enough to stump Zachary.

"Mr. Walsh, I'm not great at math. But you're the company's vice president. Even if I'm bad at math, can't you just say a word and let me in?" Zachary pleaded, unwilling to

give up.

"Zachary, R Company is different from other companies. It's a research-based enterprise. If you can't even manage basic communication, let alone the specialized terminology required for work, how do you expect to function? If I bring you in, you'd be like a mute and deaf person-how could you possibly get anything done?"

Zachary regretted not studying harder in the past. Forget advanced calculus in college- his algebra grades were a complete mess.

"Mr. Walsh, then... what should I do? I don't have a job right now. How about I go and study hard for a while?"

"Here's the deal. Wait until this semester ends and you get your diploma. You've got a few months to improve yourself. Once you've graduated, I'll reassess whether you're ready, and then we'll make a decision. How does that sound?"

Mio Walsh's suggestion sounded reasonable and considerate, and both Zachary and Ivy accepted it.

"Alright, I'll work hard over the next six months," Zachary agreed.

Mio Walsh finally breathed a sigh of relief. These six months were nothing more than a stalling tactic. Once he achieved his goals, he had no intention of maintaining any connection to Ivy.

Meanwhile, Ivy silently resolved to work hard herself. In six months, she would head to New York and reunite with him.

The atmosphere in the car was lively as they chatted, and soon they arrived at the apartment building. Zachary quickly went to the trunk to grab the bags, and the group, laughing and joking, entered the elevator.

"Hey sis, if Mom sees Mr. Walsh, she's going to be thrilled. I bet she'll love someone like Mr. Walsh. If I were a woman, I'd want to marry him too," Zachary teased.

Mio Walsh merely smiled. After all, plenty of women wanted to marry him.

Zachary opened the door and shouted loudly, "Mom! We've got a guest! Come qui- Mom! What happened to you?"
