Arthur replied after a while with sadness, "Jean, do you really hate me that much to avoid me like that?"

"I have nothing to say if you feel that way." It was hard enough for her to make a day to see Emelia at Riverside City so she didn't intend to explain her schedule to him.

There was no need to explain to him as she didn't plan to see him or have anything to do with him in the first place.

"If there's nothing else, then that's it." Jean ended this call, thinking that he might not pick her up tomorrow at the airport and she'll just get a cab to see Emelia.

Back to the table, her mother asked her casually, "Who keeps calling you? Someone who likes you?"

"Just a friend," Jean said shortly.

Seeing her attitude, her mother didn't know how to ask more.

Jean's father said with a serious face, "I heard from Mario that there's a man who keeps bothering you. Was that him who called you before?"

Mario was the man her parents introduced who was close with Jean's father as he liked this potential future son-in-law very much.

Arthur came to see Jean a couple of times before but she all turned him down. Mario ran into Arthur once when he went to see Jean at the company, which must have been why her father knew about that.

"Of course not, I haven't spoken to him in years." Jean smiled a little.

It was not that she wanted to hide or something, she just tried to keep it simple.

"Well, Mario said that this man is not from Zoshalor. You are our only daughter, and now you've taken over the company, we really want you to stay at Zoshalor. A long-distance relationship doesn't work." Jean's father nodded.
