Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan)

Chapter 137

Eventually, Jaylan started asking me out. For the first time, both Ronan and Addrion were on the same

page, sternly warning me to proceed with caution. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

In truth, my initial intention was to use Jaylan to stir up jealousy in Ronan. At the time, my heart was

brimming with confused feelings, mostly for Ronan. The feelings I had for him were completely different

from what I had for Addrian and Jaylan.

I had tried to hint at my feelings for Ronan multiple times, but for whatever reason, he never responded

to it. Instead, he kept me at arm's length, that made me confuse.

Just when I was about to throw all caution to the wind and give myself one last chance, Ronan

suddenly dropped out of school without a trace or warning. I rushed to Addrion for answers, but he said

he couldn't reach Ronan either. He had asked everyone who knew him, but no one could explain why

he had suddenly left school. After that, Ronan just disappeared.

This unexpected turn of events made me depressed. My first love had ended without a reason or

closure.

Countless times, I had pushed Addrion for answers. He told me he was just as clueless, unable to

contact Ronan. But I didn't buy it. Those two were thick as thieves, how could Addrion not know about

Ronan's whereabouts?

I rashly accused Addrion of lying and had a major fallout with him. Addrion quietly took the brunt of my

accusations, remaining by my side as always. But I was blind to his loyalty.

Later, I decided to let go of the quest for answers. I believed that they must have been hiding

something from me, something they didn't want me to know. I felt deceived and distanced myself from

Addrion. That's when Jaylan swooped in.

In hindsight, it's clear as day. But at that moment, Jaylan's devotion, his constant presence, came as a

balm to me who suddenly felt 'betrayed' - his attempts at being the protective boyfriend were off the

charts. I was moved by his so-called sincerity.

Looking back, it's quite laughable how Jaylan's constant attention and care seemed so genuine to me

at the time. How widespread must his manipulations have been? I could tell from his sleazy photos that

all his tactics to win over girls were tried and true.

And Addrion, the moment he heard I had accepted Jaylan, he came to me and told me he was

heartbroken.

But after that, he resolutely decided to follow me to the end, openly joining my Startup team. At the

time, he was about to graduate. He didn't attend any job fairs but chose to grind with me, running

around every hospital in Goldenvale Town, earning the first real money of my life.

That's how Medsafe Liyah Inc. was born. To be honest, the foundation of Medsafe Liyah Inc. was built

by Addrion. Without him, there wouldn't be a Medsafe Liyah Inc. today.

To me, Addrion is like my closest family, like a dear brother. In some ways, he's given me more than

Ronan ever did.

He has been with me every step of the way, witnessing every inch of growth of Medsafe Liyah Inc., yet

ended up this way. I owe him so much. I really wanted to slap myself. How could I have been so blind

and heartless, to fall for a guy like that, almost costing the lives of my loved ones?

I took a sip of coffee, grounding myself back to reality. My priority right now is to bring down the

Dawson family, take back Medsafe Liyah Inc. Because it not only belong to me.

After finishing my coffee, I glanced at the time and was about to leave when I caught sight of Jerome

outside the window.

I paused and sat back down. Why was he at the school at this time? My mind couldn't help but think of

Evan. A strange suspicion formed in my mind.

I managed to suppress my curiosity, staring at the figure through the window. I saw him stride towards

the school, stop at the entrance, call out to a teacher inside, exchange a few words, and in a few

minutes, Evan came out.

I raised an eyebrow. As I suspected, he was here to pick up Evan.

Jerome effortlessly hoisted the kid onto his shoulders, and as he turned around, I saw a content smile

on his face, radiating pure affection.

I quickly snapped a picture with my phone. With this photo, I can definitely stir up some trouble.
