Chapter 174 Zach Asked for Help
Mrs. Stone was shocked when she saw Zach returning home. His eyes looked bloodshot for lack of sleep. She wondered what happened to his son. She knew Zach was always positive, but now he looked awful.
So she asked him anxiously, “Zach, you didn’t come back last night. What happened to you?”
“Don’t worry, I just stayed in the car all night.”
Mrs. Stone looked puzzled, “Why did you stay in the car all night? Look at you! So haggard! What happened last night? Did you argue with Sophia?”
Mrs. Stone kept nagging after him. He suddenly stopped there. He turned around and looked at Mrs. Stone, and announced, “Mom, I promise you! Sophia will definitely be my wife in the future.”
“What are you talking about?”
Mrs. Stone didn’t expect that Zach would choose Sophia. Hearing his promise, her hope was lit up, “You mean you like Sophia...”
“Yes, yes, I am sober now. I know what I really want. I give up on Anna. I like Sophia. I am sure that I am not into Anna anymore. I want Sophia to be my girlfriend!” He nodded. After finding out the truth, he felt relieved.
He thought he would be very happy when Anna became his girlfriend. However, he didn’t. Instead, he felt even more annoyed and anxious. Till this moment, he felt relieved that he found out he didn’t like Anna actually.
Mrs. Stone patted him on the shoulder happily, “Good boy. I am so happy you know what you want. Anna and you aren’t the perfect match. What’s more, she didn’t show any respect to me. She didn’t
visit me after I was in hospital. It’s Sophia who always cares about me. I am so glad that you realize Sophia is the right one for you. Wait a minute, I’m going to call Sophia.”
“Mom! Please don’t!”
Zach hurriedly stopped her, “Mom, please! Don’t do anything! Let me handle it by myself, OK? Please don’t get involved in it! You should go back to S City! I promise. If she agrees to be my girlfriend, I will bring her home. Okay?”
“Then you should treat her better this time. Don’t hurt her again!” All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
“Of course, Mom! I know what to do! Don’t worry!” Zach answered.
Mrs. Stone stared at him seriously for a while. She made sure that Zach didn’t get drunk and he said this with his clear mind. So, she believed him and agreed to let him handle it by himself. She started to pack and was leaving for S City. Zach sent her to the airport.

The news that Zach broke up with Anna reached Elena quickly. When she heard it from Logan, she was astonished, “What? Really? What happened? Did Anna do anything to push Zach?”
“Perhaps he finally figures out what he wants.”
But Elena couldn’t help guessing, “How can that be? Did he break up because of Sophia?”
Seemingly she thought about it in a more complicated way. Logan tried to stop her random guessing, “It’s their business. They should have their own choice. Perhaps it’s not because of Sophia. He just needs a trigger to clean up his mess.”
Elena pursed her lips, “Okay. We should leave them alone.”
However, Zach didn’t think so. After sending Mrs. Stone to the airport, he hurried to their villa. When he met Logan, he humbly asked for his advice, “Logan, you are so kind. So please tell me, how did you make Elena yours then?”
Logan squinted at him, “Do you think I need to make efforts?”
“...” Zach didn’t believe what he said. He turned to look at Elena, asking, “Come on. Did you hit on Logan first?”
Elena gave him a sharp stare, “Shut up. Mind your own business.”
“My business?” Zach shrugged, “Making Sophia my girlfriend is my business now.”
“You like Sophia?”
Zach looked at Elena and nodded, “Yes, Elena. I’m not kidding!”
He said in a serious tone.
“Okay. Do as you want.”
Zach felt relieved since Elena didn’t stopped him from courting Sophia. He smiled, “Don’t worry, Elena. Though Sophia thinks that I am a playboy, I am not! Actually, I am honest and loyal.”
As he finished his sentence, Elena looked at him with disbelief, which upset him a lot. “Come on, don’t look at me like that! I am cheering up for myself. But I am not lying. Don’t look at me like I am a big liar. I feel so hurt.”
“Then you should be more sincere from this minute on.” said Elena with a smile.
Zach was cheered up, slamming on the table, “Sure! I will let you see my determination!”
Elena thought a while and then reminded him kindly, “Well, I’ve heard that Sophia is looking for a job…”
The hope in Zach’s eyes lit up, and he looked at Elena gratefully. For fear of Logan, he tried his best to hold back the urge of hugging Elena, and said in a calm tone, “Elena, I love you! You are so kind! Thank you very much!”
He winked at Elena in a funny way, which made her shiver. Then he left before Logan became angry.
Elena couldn’t help sighing, “I don’t know if I should help him this time.”
Logan smiled, “I believe they will work out naturally.”
No one could help them. They should decide for themselves if they started a romantic relationship or not.
Elena looked at his handsome face, smiling, “I know. I just couldn’t help worrying.”
Logan curled his lips, “Don’t worry. I believe Zach won’t disappoint you. Just wait and see Sophia’s choice.”
She sighed, “Okay. I won’t worry about them anymore.”
Logan raised his eyebrows and looked at her, “But your expression tells me that you are still worrying about them.”
“What? Is it that obvious? How can you see it?” she thought Logan was so clever to see everything.
He smiled, “I know you so well. Does anyone else know you better than I do?”
Elena smiled, “Yes, yes, Logan, you are the only one in the world that knows me so well. In this case, I have a question; can you tell me what I am thinking now?”
“Well?”
She looked at him with a sly look, “Have a guess.”
Logan’s hand moved to her waist and he clasped her slightly, “You are reminding me that you want to have a baby now? So shall we go to our room and make love now?”
“Come on! I am not!” His remarks made her blush. She wanted to run away but he quickly caught her, “Then tell me.”
Elena looked at him, “So Logan, do you forget your promise?”
Logan raised his eyebrow to show his confusion. He wondered what he promised her before.
