Love Worth Fighting For

Chapter 296



“I almost forgot I had a face this handsome,” Christian says softly on purpose, his voice made louder on purpose.

Instantly all Zwetta’s admiration for Christian vanished.

“Narcissist!”

Christian, who was deliberately teasing Zwetta, chuckled. Without Zwetta knowing, Christian managed to read the change in her facial expression which looked so restless after the mustache and beard that adorned his face disappeared.

Zwetta snorted in annoyance. “It turns out that you are still very annoying even though you are sick,” Zwetta said again with cheeks that felt so hot.

“I’m talking facts, is it wrong?”

“Oh come on, I don’t want to talk to you!” said Zwetta curtly.

Christian chuckles, being this close to Zwetta who has the same face as Elena makes the pain go away.

.....

“You better rest, looks like the medicine you’ve been taking is starting to work.”

“Getting to work? How do you know when the medicine I’m taking starts working?” Christian asks, confused.

“This rambling of yours seems to be the effect of the medicine, so now you better get some sleep!”

“You won’t leave if I sleep, will you?”

Zwetta took a deep breath. “Should I answer again?”

Christian chuckled, slowly closing his eyes which were already feeling so heavy. What Zwetta said was true, the medicine he had taken thirty minutes ago was starting to work.

Seeing Christian sleeping, Zwetta then rushed off to the sofa to rest. Taking care of the sick really tired her, even though the sun was still high but Zwetta finally decided to sleep following Christian who had been wading through dreamland. Her curiosity about the baby photo on Christian’s cellphone makes Zwetta more attached to Christian without realizing it.

“Elena... don’t go, come back to me,” Christian murmurs hoarsely, tears falling from his tightly closed eyes again.

Muller Finance International, Geneva Switzerland.

“Miss Luna’s condition is getting better, sir. If this continues, then Miss Luna can be operated on as soon as the team of doctors manages to find the right heart for Miss Luna,” Erick said slowly, reporting on the progress of Luna’s condition.

Jack took a deep breath. “Thankfully, Anne will be very happy to hear this happy news.”

“But I have some unpleasant news to tell you, sir.”

“Unpleasant news?”

Ericlk immediately straightened his body. “Areez Floyen, the man continues his business in Switzerland. He has hired one of your business rivals, Damien Ramos, to be a director of his company.”

Christian’s jaw hardens. “Damien Ramos, that damn bastard! He’s out of jail?!”

“Looks like Areez Floyen is really challenging you, sir,” Nicholas said quietly, joining in.

Erick, who had been keeping Jack’s emotions from exploding, immediately turned to his co-worker who had been talking carelessly.

“What’s more? What did I do wrong this time?” Nicholas asked innocently.

“I feel like I want to rip your mouth right now, Nick,” Erick said in a half-whispered emotion, Erick trying to keep his voice from being heard by Jack.

Nicholas frowned. “You’re out of your mind, Erick!”

“You...”

“Keep an eye on Damien Ramos, I want you to keep reporting to me regularly,” Jack said quietly, stopping Erick’s words.

“Yes sir!” Erick and Nicholas answered at the same time, both faces instantly tensed. The cold aura emanating from Jack instantly strangled both of their necks.

Even though he had previously received good news about Luna’s condition, Jack’s anger was immediately ignited when the name Damien Ramos came out of Erick’s lips. Damian Ramos, which happened in the past, turns out to be related to Edmund, his adopted brother who repeatedly tried to bring him down. After hearing the news that Edmund had an accident a few years ago, Jack felt quite calm because his brother was no longer bothering him. But Jack’s calm didn’t last long because Damien Ramos appeared, Damien, who was ordered by Edmund to destroy his business from the inside, almost cost Muller Finance International a huge loss if Asher wasn’t there at that time.

Asher managed to find a leak of funds that went into a virtual company run by Damien Ramos, so that at that time the destruction of Muller Finance International could be prevented and Damien Ramos the traitor was successfully thrown into prison for ten years. All the assets that Damien Ramos took were successfully withdrawn by Asher in no time. That’s why at this time Jack was so angry when Damien’s name was called back, especially now that Damien was working for Areez Floyen who had clearly caused a big mess in his family. The reason he judged Elena, the innocent daughter-in-law.

“You’re actually flying the war flag at me, apparently,” growled Jack furiously. “I won’t let you go, Areez. As long as I live, I won’t let you live in peace.”

Even though Jack’s words weren’t too loud, Erick and Nicholas could clearly hear the words their master had just said. Erick’s intention to teach Nicholas a lesson immediately disappeared, he didn’t want to make Jack angrier.

Unbeknownst to Jack and his two assistants, Suri who was standing with Asher overheard all of their conversations. Nicholas, who didn’t close the door tightly, was the main reason why Suri and Asher could hear their conversation. After not being spoken to for almost a week, Suri finally decided to return to the office to work after asking Asher for help. Although disappointed in Suri, Asher is still unable to refuse Suri’s request. That’s why Asher confronted Jack and asked his permission to let Suri go back to work in the office, Jack, who was actually still not satisfied with punishing Suri, finally decided to relent and let his daughter go back to work with a note that she still can’t have a personal cellphone and all internet access. limited. Although initially objected, but in the end Suri agreed. Suri chose to give in and follow her father’s wishes rather than having to stay cooped up at home doing nothing.

“Suri...”

“I want to go to the toilet,” said Suri quietly, cutting off Asher who had just said his name.

Without waiting for a response from Asher, Suri then ran quickly to the toilet that is usually used by employees. Actually Suri could have used a special toilet that only she and her family could use, but this time Suri preferred to go to the employee toilet. She wanted to vent her tears in the never-empty toilet to avoid Asher who was certain that there would be no way to disturb her.

After sitting on the toilet which was still so clean, Suri then squeezed her left chest with tears that immediately flowed freely from her eyes, ruining her perfect makeup.

“Is this the punishment we have to accept, God? Is this what Areez and I should get for hurting them all?”

Suri’s body shook violently, the words that came out of her father’s lips really scared her. Her hopes of being with Areez again have now vanished because her father has included Areez on his enemy list.

“Elena, where are you? Please come back and help me, Elena...only you can help me right now..sob..sob....sob...
