When Life Takes A Turn のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 91 - チャプター 100

Zayn took a look at his surroundings and was not able to recognize where he was at that very moment, so he said, “I went out on a sales trip, but I’m coming home now.”“Buy a bottle of shampoo. We’ve run out at home.” Directly after telling him that, Faye hung up the phone. A moment later, Zayn received a notification that she had sent some cash over via Venmo, accompanied by the brand of the shampoo and the address of where he could buy it.However, Zayn did not acknowledge receipt at all. ‘I’ve got my own money now. Forget buying a bottle of shampoo, I can buy over the entire manufacturing company of any brand of shampoo I want within minutes.’After he returned home from buying the shampoo, Faye said, “Why didn’t you accept my money?”Zayn smiled as he said, “I’ve started working already, haven’t I? I’ve got the money for it.”Faye nodded her head and walked over to grab the shampoo from his hands. However, she was immediately able to smell a woman’s perfume on him. Instantly,

Ruby had an embarrassed expression on her face as she sighed and said, “How could I not know that? However, the Carters refuse to allow it. Fifi has always had very good business acumen since she was young, even working in the Carters’ family business before she even graduated from college, and she has been rather useful to the company. The only reason why Fifi’s marriage is matrilocal is that the Carters treat her like a son, hence they forbid her from being married off.”True enough, when Faye had a matrilocal marriage with Zayn, that had been the main reason. She was talented in business, and the Carters did not have anyone else at the time since Howard was a stereotypical playboy who was not useful in the slightest. Consequently, the Carters did not have anyone to inherit the business. Therefore, under an angry whim, George agreed to allow Faye to have a matrilocal marriage and nurtured her as his granddaughter.Otherwise, given how beautiful Faye was, there was no way she would

Ruby rolled her eyes and said, “Now that you’ve brought this up, I’m so frustrated. This useless deadbeat has been married into the Carters for four years already, yet all he knows is how to stay at home and wait to be fed, looking for a job is out of the question.”Faye could not stand to listen to another word. ‘Mom is being so disrespectful towards Zayn in front of these outsiders. It’s so uncalled for.’ “Mom, what nonsense are you on about? Zayn found a job a while back.”Ruby criticized unhappily, “That intermediary realtor job? How’s that even considered a job? Is that even something that a human should be working as? What’s good about a job that barely pays 600 dollars? It’s nothing compared to Ted’s job.”Diana chuckled when she heard that, and there was an exaggerated expression on her face as she said, “Are you serious? An intermediary realtor? Are you even able to earn money from that?”Ted laughed in disdain as he said, “Mom, you mustn’t put it like that. An intermedi

Ruby pursed her lips. She was miffed by what she had heard, yet she had nothing to use as a rebuttal.Faye, on the other hand, was different. Her eyes were dazzling brilliantly in anticipation as she bit her lip.“700 million dollars? That sounds like an exaggeration, you know?” Zayn piped up, “The way I heard it, the new Chairman bought Violet Vision with just 350 million dollars.”Ted shot him a glare before retorting snippily, “Are you the expert on Violet Vision, or am I the one who knows what I’m saying? You’re just a real estate agent. What do you know? See, Violet Vision is the city’s biggest film company. It’s absolutely gargantuan! And you really think a mere sum of 350 million would be enough to buy all of that? Fat chance!”In a way, he was right. Under Zayn’s leadership, Violet Vision had taken a complete one-eighty from its negative growth to its current positive one. By now, its market value had gone up to about 540 million dollars, and a humble sum of 350 million wou

Pleased, Ted nodded and feigned another few coughs again, this time as a hint to Zayn to refill his drink. Seeing the man ignoring him altogether annoyed him, but before Ted could squeeze in a few stern words, his phone rang.When he pulled it out and glanced at the screen, a smile blossomed on his face. “A-ha, looks like my superior has decided to give me a call. He must be thinking of promoting me.”With that, Ted turned on the speaker and let everyone hear his conversation. “Hello? Sir? Oh, what a coincidence! I was just about to call you!”Ted was grinning from ear to ear, obviously extremely pleased with himself. He even managed to find a window of time to raise his eyebrow at Zayn just to squeeze in a moment to gloat.A middle-aged man’s voice boomed from the other side, “Are you free to talk? I have an important matter I need to discuss with you.”His words were a shot of vim and vigor. Ted was so galvanized that he could not stop his voice from quaking a little. “Oh, of co
