Chapter 168 An Unexpected Visit

• A few moments later, Wesley arrived in the meeting room at Alpha Productions, where his appointment with Zola was going to be. In the meantime, Zola looked haggard, as she didn't sleep well the night before because of the news about Emma's visit to Wesley's house. Because of that, Zola appeared to be emotionally unstable even though she had long arrived at their rendezvous. The moment she saw Wesley entering the meeting room in high spirits, she couldn't help but think about the night he spent with Emma together, allowing her jealousy to take over her rational mind.
• Nevertheless, Wesley pretended as if he didn't notice Zola's strange behavior and sat down in front of her, whereupon he went ahead and directly made his point. "Zola, as your old friend and partner at work, I have to tell you that you don't belong with Crystal." In fact, he had long sensed Zola's romantic admiration for him but had been acting ignorant toward it because he didn't want to put both of them in an awkward position.
• Zola pursed her lips in silence, trying to calm herself down. A few moments later, she mustered her courage and looked at Wesley, questioning him about his stance. "President Zurich, you told me that I don't belong with Crystal, but who are you to tell me that?" Zola forced Wesley to show his hand by aggressively pressing on with her question. In fact, she was aware of Wesley's indifferent attitude toward her advances, but at that moment, she was driven by her rage to push her luck due to the news of Emma and Wesley from the night before. Because of that, she impulsively decided to make Wesley pick his choice between her and Emma against her better judgment, even though a part of her knew she was in over her head.
