"Susanna, I want to ask you something. How's Zachary treating you lately? How's your relationship? Has he ever mentioned anything about marriage?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

Sensing Susanna's hesitation, Kenneth's expression darkened. It seemed there was trouble brewing between Susanna and Zachary

Kieran, though appearing concerned, felt relieved inside. If things between Susanma and Zachary were falling apart, Kenneth wouldn't be as focused on pushing for shares from him in the future.

Kieran knew that the closer Susanna and Zachary got, the more pleased Kenneth would be. If they ever married, Zachary backing Kenneth and his daughter would give them significant influence in the company- something Kieran absolutely didn't want. After all, those shares were rightfully his.

"Why are you asking all of a sudden, Dad?" Susanna finally asked.

"Just be honest with me. What's going on with you two? I'll tell you something-your Uncle Kieran saw Zachary with Lenora at the club today.

Susanna remained silent.

At this, Kieran chimed in, "Susanna, remember, I'm your uncle. If something's bothering you, don't hesitate to share it with your father and me. We're family. We'll help you sort it out.

"Break up?" Kenneth was stunned. "That's impossible. Zachary loves you. Why would he just call it quits? Did you do something to upset him?"

"No, Dad, I didn't!" Susanna burst into tears. "I don't believe it either, but we had a fight, and he said he wanted to break up with me to be with Lenora. We've been apart for so long, our relationship was already strained. And now Lenora's taken advantage of that and seduc "Don't cry, Susanna. Tell us exactly what happened. We'll figure it out."

"Well, it's like this..."

She gave them a brief account of what happened on the 20th of September, explaining how Zachary and Lenora's relationship developed. However, she left out the fact that Zachary and Lenora were already married, insisting instead that Lenora had lured Zachary away in Chapter 108 A Resistance

"Thanks, Dad."

Once Susanna hung up, she scoffed under her breath, "Just wait, Dad, I won't let you down."
