Chapter 381: Chapter 380: The Truth about Marriage

Seeing Zoey’s eyes widen, Jerry smiled slightly.

Scarlett actually managed to find Zoey’s most respected mentor to play matchmaker for her and Jerry.

Zoey was avoiding him, but the more she did, the more he wanted to pursue her.

“Why is Miss Leaford still standing outside?” Jerry’s voice was not loud, nor quiet, but it tightly gripped people’s hearts like silk.

Zoey’s heart sank, and after thinking about it, she finally took off her shoe covers and walked in.

This was her mentor’s home, and she couldn’t just leave without saying hello.

If her mentor really did introduce Jerry, she would make it clear to her mentor that she and Jerry were impossible.

Zoey sat on a single sofa somewhat far from Jerry, tightly closing her lips, looking at her nose, nose looking at her heart, pretending that there was no one beside her.

“Zoey, you’ve always despised me when I was stupid. Now that I’m better, do you want to consider giving me a chance?”

Jerry spoke directly, his beautiful eyes staring straight at Zoey.

“Our families would match well in a marriage, and feelings can always be cultivated.”

“Mr. Jenkins,” Zoey interrupted him, “I’ve said it before, we are impossible, I have a boyfriend now.”

“Boyfriend…” Jerry laughed brightly and beautifully, “I’ve checked, you don’t have any boyfriend at all. If you had one, you wouldn’t be here today. So, this boyfriend thing is just a lie you made up.”

After being exposed, Zoey tried her best to stay calm: “Mr. Jenkins, let me be straightforward—I’m not interested in you. We are impossible. If you really like me, please let go of this doomed relationship now. If you want to take revenge on me, then bring it on—is what Zoey Leaford says!”

This time, Jerry had completely annoyed Zoey.

She couldn’t bear this lingering young master.

“Speaking like this really hurts my heart.” Jerry glanced at the person behind Zoey, and solemnly said, “I’ve fallen in love with you at first sight, and I hope you can give me a chance.”

“Zoey!” Her mentor, looking delighted, brought some dishes over, and after putting them on the table, wiped her hands on her apron, and said eagerly, “Jerry is a good boy. Although he had some minor issues before, he has had a full body check-up at the hospital and he’s completely cured. He’s a normal person now. Since Jerry likes you, why don’t you give him a chance? Emotions can be cultivated. You don’t need to make a decision right now, but you should give both sides a chance!”

Hearing her mentor’s words, Zoey had a bad feeling.

This time, her mentor seemed determined to match her with Jerry.

Zoey bit her lip and sent a message in her family group chat: “I’m at Rosewood Park, can someone pick me up?”

She was worried that her mentor would let Jerry take her home.

It’s better to have someone from home come get her so that Jerry wouldn’t dare to act rashly.

The meal was torturously slow, with Jerry occasionally adding dishes to her plate. The mentor nodded in satisfaction, clearly very happy with Jerry.

The mentor kept talking about the interesting events in her marriage.

After the meal, the mentor urged Jerry to take Zoey home.

Catching Jerry’s meaningful gaze, Zoey had a bad feeling in her heart.

She wouldn’t get in Jerry’s car.

Her intuition told her that Jerry was a very dangerous man.

At that moment, Jerry glanced at his vibrating cell phone. Scarlett sent a message: “For a good girl like Zoey, once you take her, she won’t be able to escape. I’ve prepared a little gift for you in your car, you’re welcome~”

Take her?

Jerry raised his brown eyes and looked at Zoey.

She was wearing a white maxi dress today, and although she had put on a blazer, her graceful figure was still visible under the coat. The outline of her slim waist beneath the coat was faintly discernible, leaving one to imagine.

It turned out Scarlett was right, and today was a perfect opportunity.

Jerry’s fingers moved slightly. They lightly tapped the table, and the corner of his mouth revealed a determined confidence.

In the Leaford family’s villa, Molly Walker saw the message in the group chat and turned to Natalie Lambert: “Cousin asks us to pick her up.”

There’s no need to worry, just have the driver pick her up. She’s on a blind date today. My guess…” Natalie Lambert smiled mysteriously, “is that she’s taken a liking to him and wants someone from home to pick them up.”

Natalie was convinced. She knew her sister well. This time, unless the man was ludicrous, her sister would likely take a liking to him.

She was not obsessed with appearances, was gentle, and quite good-looking. Her sister would definitely be popular in the dating market.

“Took a liking to him?” Molly raised her eyebrows, “If she did, he should be the one sending her home. Why would she ask us to come?”

“Ah, Ivy, you don’t understand. My sister is the kind of person who would feel embarrassed if someone sent her home. Just have the driver pick her up in a while, and you rest well. You’re still feeling tense about you and Michael. As long as you’re fine with my brother-in-law, our lifelong marital matters can be settled.”

Thinking that the RV was a gift from Michael, Natalie’s eyes shone brightly.

The money for the RV was not given by the Gallagher family, nor the Jenkins family. It was all from his own earnings.

To be able to casually spend so much money on a car, he was truly the nouveau riche of the new era.

With Michael being so successful, his friends were sure to be successful too. She could just let him be the middleman and introduce some promising young men, and then she’d also settle her lifelong marital matters.

Thinking about this, Natalie was a little excited.

Contrary to her excitement, Molly felt a complicated mix of emotions when thinking about Michael.

Michael hadn’t called to explain, and his sudden departure yesterday made her feel restless.

Since he wouldn’t contact her, there was no way she would shamelessly ask.

Seeing her upset, Natalie realized she was still thinking about what happened the day before.

“Ivy, are you still on bad terms with my brother-in-law?” Natalie smiled and leaned in closer, “Though you argue, don’t hurt your relationship. Based on my many years of experience reading people, Michael is reliable. If he’s not contacting you or is giving you the cold shoulder, it might be because there’s a misunderstanding between you two. Not to stir up trouble, but with men like him, subtlety is often key, and he won’t say things directly.”

Natalie spoke with authority, leaving Molly deep in thought.

If there was a misunderstanding, it was probably about their marriage.

She remembered Michael asking her about the truth of their marriage.

If she tells him that she initially married him to take control of the organization and only started loving him afterward, would he accept it?

Molly’s fingers trembled, her eyelashes shaking uncontrollably.

“Miss Thompson, someone is looking for you outside,” security knocked on the door as a reminder.

Molly strode out and saw Harry Lambert’s face filled with tension.

Harry looked at her, his beautiful face showing a touch of murderous intent.

“Christopher Evans and Scarlett are in contact.”
