Chapter 329

:

Yannis said, “Cutting ties with the Shaw family only means you’re done with them, not with me or Jackson. We care about you, and that has nothing to do with the Shaws. So don’t lump us in with them or blame us by

association.”

Yannis took a deep breath. If the Shaw family were standing right in front of him, he would curse them out, He was genuinely proud of Zinnia for cutting ties with them so decisively, and he truly admired her straightforwardness.

But he didn’t want Zinnia to lump him and Jackson in with the Shaws just because of the Shaws disgraceful acts. He thought, ‘The Shaws are scumbags. Jackson and I don’t want to be blamed by association. That would be completely unfair to us.

Hearing Yannis’s words, the confusion in Zinnia’s eyes gradually faded. She didn’t regret leaving the Shaws behind, but when she thought of Jackson, she couldn’t help but feel a pang of regret.

Yannis’s words cut through her previous confusion like sunlight piercing fog, bringing sudden clarity to her

troubled heart.

Yannis crouched down in front of Zinnia, locking eyes with her. He said, “Zinnia, do you think that just because you’ve cut ties with the Shaw family, you have to cut me and Jackson out too?”

Zinnia knew she was not the brightest. There were so many things she couldn’t figure out. Cutting ties with the Shaw family was something she had been preparing for a long time.

But she never expected Jackson to barge in so abruptly. She wasn’t prepared for him at all, so she was at a loss for a moment.

Yannis gave Zinnia’s cheeks an affectionate pinch. “You silly girl, are you trying to drive Jackson and me crazy?” he huffed.

Zinnia’s silence told Yannis everything: she was thinking that way. Yannis thought, ‘I have never met anyone so ridiculously naive. While others would kill to be associated with me and Jackson, she is planning to sever all ties with us.’

Zinnia blinked up at Yannis without resisting. With her cheeks still pinched, she mumbled, “I didn’t mean to make you mad.” Her words came out slurred, but she truly hadn’t meant to upset him.
