Second Marriage novel Chapter 369

Hearing her question, Zain became silent.

Alice was a little regretted at the moment. She shouldn’t have asked it.

“Sorry, Zain. I didn’t mean it. I just want to know something about her.”

“It doesn’t matter,” Zain smiled faintly and said, “My mother has been dead for many years. I have accepted the reality. Besides, I have found you.”

Then he reached out and rubbed her head, and whispered, “Since we lost you, my mother was mental. She only wanted to find you. She went to many places herself to find you. We couldn’t stop her, so I had to go with her. Later, she was ill severely. She was in poor health after giving birth to you.”

Alice was shocked by his words.

“Why? Even if I’m lost, she should take good care of herself.”

“Because she always felt sorry for you and thought that she didn’t take good care of you. How could she stay in a good mood after losing you?”

Alice was silent for his words.

“Besides, my father’s plane crashed. It was another bad news. When my mother received the news, she was in the village of a small mountain to find you. When she went down the mountain, she accidentally fell.”

Alice’s eyes wide opened.

“Then she was sent to the hospital. It was the last time I saw her.”

Zain’s tone was emotionless. He looked very calm. But Alice could see his pain.

They stood silently in front of the tombstone for a long time. Then Alice placed a bunch of flowers in front of the tomb. It was getting dark. Zain asked Alice to leave with him.

When they just got in the car, it began to rain outside.

It was getting much cooler.

Yanis still didn’t eat with them at dinner. Alice knew the reason and asked the maid to send the food to her.

After dinner, Alice and Jack played games in the living room.

Zain suddenly handed her a document.

“What is this?”

“It was the material for you to register a company.”

“Company?” Alice asked in surprise.

“It’s better for you to set up a company. You always work on your own, which is inappropriate.”

Then she asked, “Why? I worked on my own when I was abroad.”

“Now you’re in a new environment. I’ve received the news about you.”

Hearing his words, Alice remembered what happened in S City before. She snorted and asked, “Does someone want to sue me?”

Zain glanced at her and said, “It seems that you are very clear about it.”

“I know she wants to sue me, but I’m not afraid,” Alice shook her head and said indifferently, “Besides, she did something wrong.”

“Then she wants to sue you?”

Alice glanced at him and suddenly smiled and said, “My brother will help me, right? I won’t cooperate with her.”

“You have just returned home. If you got prosecuted, it would affect your career.”

“I’ll change my career to be an actress.”

Zain instantly paused and frowned at her.

“Being an actress?”

Alice nodded and said, “Yes, if I can’t be a designer, I can be an actress.”

“No,” Zain disagreed with her and said, “You can’t be an actress. If you decide not to be a designer, you can work in my company.”

Seeing him being so serious, Alice couldn’t help laughing out loud.

“Well, I was just joking. I won’t be an actress. People who are actors are all young people. I am not young now. I’m not good at acting. No one will accept me to film a movie.”

Zain was speechless.

“Yes, Zain. Mommy is old now,” Jack said.

Alice looked at Jack with a smile and said, “Baby, what did you say just now?”

He quickly jumped off the sofa and climbed onto Zain’s legs.

Alice didn’t try to catch him.

“I’ve solved this matter for you,” Zain said when he held Jack, “I’ve registered a company for you. It’s near the Nelson Group. I’ll ask Megan to send you there tomorrow.”

Alice said, “Do you really give me a company? I think that it’s good to work on my own. It’s tiring for me to manage a company and find the design team.”

“You don’t have to worry about the team. I have already found the best design team for you.”

“The best design team? I’ll go bankrupt if I can’t pay their salary.”

Hearing her words, Zain smiled and said, “I believe in your ability. I’ll help you pay their salary in the first three months. Then you have to deal with the business and affairs of the company on your own. Maybe you can set up a brand of yours.”

A brand?

Alice was surprised. When she was abroad, she just worked as a designer and never thought about setting up her own brand.

If she began to work with a team, she must have a clear designing style.

Thinking of this, Alice was worried.

She felt that she would be very busy.

“Mommy, can I have a position in your company?” Jack asked.

Hearing his words, Alice looked at him and said, “You are a child, why do you want a position in the company?”

“Well.” Jack was a little grieved.

“I’ll give you a position,” Zain pinched his cheek and said, “Your mother will be busy tomorrow, so you can go to the company with me.”

“Can I? Will you give me a powerful position?” Jack’s eyes twinkled and he looked very innocent.

However, Zain seemed to find the cunning in his eyes. Then it disappeared.

He thought he was probably wrong.
