Chapter 223 Investigation
Felipa rushed over when she heard the news. When Zayla saw Felipa, she immediately lowered her head.
“Felipa, I’m sorry. Something happened last night. That’s why Linkin didn’t
have breakfast with you.
“I was afraid that you would be worried, so I let everyone hide it from you. However, I don’t know how it spread throughout the entire San Diego.”
Zayla was also a little confused about this matter.
Looking at how arrogant Amara was last night, Zayla was sure that Amara’s father must have some influence in San Diego.
Therefore, Zayla specially called Leroy and asked the Vargas family to
suppress it. However, three hours ago, she received the news that Amara was secretly bailed out. Leroy meant to continue to apportion blame, but Zayla did
not do anything.
Zayla did not expect that the next day, this news spread all over the streets and alleys of San Diego, and even the old woman who sold hotdogs at a market
stall knew about it…
Felipa held Zayla’s hand, her eyes a little red.
“You are a good child. I know that you are doing this for my own good.
“Alec told me the truth. He said that you went out in the middle of the night to
find Linkin.
“At night in San Diego, it is not as peaceful as in Houston. How dangerous is it for you to go out alone?”
Zayla smiled at Felipa and gently shook her head, “Felipa, it’s okay. I’m not
afraid.”
“You are not afraid, but I’m worried about you, and so is Linkin.”
In the sick room.
Lincoln was looking through the accounts.
“You are already hospitalized. Why are you still busy checking accounts? Some feathered on their nest. I can turn a blind eye to them, but if something
happens to you, my eyes will be closed!”
“Felipa, don’t say that.” Zayla smiled and volunteered, “I will help check the accounts and let him rest well.”
“Can I read the accounts?” Zayla looked at Lincoln.
The account book was quite private. Of course, Zayla had to ask for his
opinion.
“You are my fiancée. If you can’t, who can?” Lincoln handed the account book
to her. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Zayla blushed.
Zayla took the account book and sat down on the sofa to the side. She lowered her head and flipped through it. Her movements were quick. It was obvious
that she was an expert.
Felipa was very surprised. She had never expected that Zayla would know how
to check the accounts.
“Linkin, you actually find such a clever girlfriend. You’re so awesome. Did you deceive her so that she agreed to be your girlfriend?” Felipa smiled.
Lincoln chuckled.
It was hard to deceive Zayla. Last night, she had instead tricked him into the
hospital.
“Then grandma, how about you helping me give a betrothal gift to Zayla?”
Lincoln raised his eyes to look at Felipa. They looked at each other and smiled.
Felipa laughed happily. She looked at Zayla who was sitting at the side.
“Alec, come in.”
Just as Felipa finished speaking, Alec pushed open the door and entered.
Felipa gave Alec a look, and he placed a document in front of Zayla.
“Mrs. Vaughan, this is what the old Mrs. Vaughan gave you.”
Zayla, who was checking the accounts, was dumbfounded at first and then
looked at the document.
It was actually the mineral rights to the old jade mine?
“Felipa?” Zayla was shocked and widened her eyes.
Felipa laughed softly.
“I know what you want to ask. Although our Vaughan family is not as prosperous as before, Linkin suddenly brought you back and said that he had hidden his girlfriend for many years. I am surprised and happy. After all, this is a matter of life. How can I not be attentive?
“I spent some money investigating you. In the end, not only did I find out how outstanding you are, but I also found out that you had a studio under your name and accepted the rebuilding work of Snow Building.
“I asked Linkin. He told me everything he knew. I knew that he wanted me to give you the mineral rights to the old jade mine, but I still had doubts about you. I was worried that you didn’t really love Linkin, so I wanted to observe
you for a while.
“But now, there’s no need.
“It’s my fault to investigate you secretly. I apologize to you, but I hope you can understand my love for my grandson.”
Felipa’s expression and tone were exceptionally sincere. It was reasonable for a grey-haired old lady to investigate a stranger like her.
Zayla shook her head gently. “Felipa, you don’t have to apologize. If I were you, I would do the same as you.”
The Vargas Group had specially hidden Zayla’s information. Other than the rumors about her brother, Stephen, there was no news about her relating to the Vargas Group at all.
But… the failed marriage between Zayla and Simon was well known.
Since Felipa had investigated Zayla, she must know about Zayla’s marriage as well…
