Sweet Addiction

Chapter 35 Zack Zuo

"By the way, do you know that Irene and Aaron went to America?"

Just as Ada was about to reply, she saw a wink from Jackson. She cleared her throat and said, "Yes, I know that. Aaron won a prize!"

"Really! But why do you all know this? Just I don't know!"

"Didn't you check your wechat moments? Irene posted her pictures."

Hearing that, Helen took out her phone and looked for the pictures that Irene had posted in the daytime.

After she saw that pictures, she felt so envious. Helen didn't want to be enslaved by her leaders anymore. So she planned to ask Ada to go shopping tomorrow. Ada thought she had nothing to do, so she smiled and agreed.

The next day, Helen sent a message to her leader for leave. She went shopping with Ada before her leader replied.

The family of Helen was not very rich. But, her parents were college teachers, which created her favorite habit of studying.

However, part of Ada's money was from Carl's parents, and part of it was from her own business. Ada liked cakes a lot. After Carl's parents knew it, they opened a cake shop for her.

There was a big difference between them when they went shopping together.

Again, Ada dragged Helen into a LV shop.

'What's wrong with those rich people like Ada? I am just graduated and don't have so much money to buy these expensive and beautiful handbags! In the face of such beautiful bags, I can only see them but can't buy them. Who can understand my current mood?!' Helen thought to herself.

In fact, Ada also found that Helen was not willing to go with her, but she really couldn't accept the stores Helen chose.

Since Carl's parents had been treating her like their own daughter, they had developed her taste. Although she was not as hypocritical as those ladies, she still had a good taste in dressing.

Seeing Ada buy a bag worth tens of thousands dollars again. Helen finally began to think about it.

Irene said that Ada was Carl's child bride, but Carl just was a resident singer who didn't have a good job, which meant that Carl's family was not so rich, but Carl's child bride was so rich.

It was a headache for Helen. She couldn't figure it out

But she felt there was something wrong.

At the same time, Irene's trip abroad was not very smooth.

All this was attributed to her pictures she sent to her wechat moments.

She had a friend from childhood, Zack Zuo. They all lived in an alley and had a good time when they were little. But when they grew up, Zack left their city and went abroad to study. He hadn't come back yet.

They had been in touch for a long time, but they didn't contact each other recently. Yesterday, Zack saw her selfie in moments and said he would come to see her.

Well Irene almost forgot that he was studying in America.

"Honey We can't go out today. One of my friends wants to see me... "

'Friend? Does she still have friend in America?' Aaron frowned and thought.

"A man?"

Irene widened her eyes and asked, "You are so great! How do you know that?"

But Aaron lowered his head to eat steak, ignoring her words.

He thought in his mind, 'You look so guilty. How could that person be a woman?'

In fact, Irene indeed felt a little guilty, because before Zack went abroad, Zack showed his love for her. But she refused

"Do you want me to go with you?"

"You can go if you want..."

"Then I won't go."

"……" Irene was a little sad and thought to herself, 'Why doesn't he care that I go out with another man?'

"I might have caught a cold yesterday, so I want to lie in the hotel and won't go with you," Aaron explained. But he thought in his heart, 'It is time for me to get down to business.' © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Hearing this, Irene hastily ran to one side of him and touched his forehead to check the temperature.

When Aaron saw Irene's worried face, he softened his eyes, put on a smile on his face and comforted her, "Don't worry. It's just a headache. I will be fine after resting." He put his arms around her and said,

"But you should be the one to worry about. Don't walk around and don't forget to tell me first. It wasn't safer to go abroad than to stay at home."

Irene put her arms around Aaron's neck and nodded obediently.

She even forced Aaron to take the pill before leaving.

Looking at Irene's stubbornness, Aaron sat on the bed, closed his eyes, took a drink of water and swallowed the medicine.

He thought, 'When you're not sick, won't eating medicine have any side effects?'

Irene saw Aaron taking the medicine obediently. She didn't leave until she kissed his forehead.

After she left, Aaron got up. He changed his suit, tidied up his hair and went out.

Zack had been waiting for Irene at the appointed place and he couldn't wait to see her.

He had been waiting this day for five years. He was finally going to see the girl he loved.

Irene opened the door and came in, seeing that Zack had stood up.

She almost couldn't recognize that person was Zack.

She thought, 'Is the tall and handsome man standing in front of me really the big fat boy next door? Wow! Do men change so much in adulthood?!'

Seeing Irene in a yellow dress and light make-up, Zack had a litter heartbeat.

That was his girl. She was still so fresh and beautiful and didn't change anything, but she was more feminine.

He couldn't help but hold her, "Irene, I miss you so much."

For no reason, at this moment, Aaron's cold face appeared in Irene's mind. She shivered, pushed Zack away softly and gently smiled, "Yeah, it's been a long time since we last met!"

Zack only ordered a glass of milk for Irene. He didn't know whether Irene could accept the taste of food abroad. Only milk was common.

Irene was still in shock while drinking the milk and asked him why he had lost so much weight.

The bitterness in Zack's eyes was concealed, and he only said that if a person kept exercising, he would lose weight.

He didn't want Irene to know what had happened to him when he just came back to the Zuo Family. The disdain from his family let him make up his mind to be a good person.

"I might be back China in a few days," said Zack. After that, he looked at Irene with expectation.

Irene, however, made no response but nodded with a smile and said, "That's great. After all, your home is in China and I think it's better for you to adapt to it."

Zack asked her how she was doing recently and why she suddenly came to New York.

Irene blinked her eyes and said that she had won a prize with her friend before coming here.

After they sat in the cafe for a while, they came out.

Irene felt a little embarrassed. After all, they hadn't seen each other for a long time, so she couldn't find the topics that they were talking about.

Feeling that Irene was ill at ease, Zack was a little sad. Time was still the barrier between them.

"Let's take a walk in that park." Zack pointed to the opposite side.

Irene was thinking how to break the embarrassment. Hearing Zack's words, she nodded her head immediately.
