Hold My Hand Dont Let Me Go - Chapter 28
After the emotional exchange that the Zhou family had, they all sat side by side on the lounge of the office. The mini table on the center is filled with snacks that Samantha adores paired with the bitter taste of coffee, just like what she wanted.
She can’t help but smile as she stares at the food presented in front of her. It’s crazy how she and the original Samantha has the same tastes in their preferred food delicacies.
“Are you really sure you’re fine now?” Sebastian once again asks, his eyes examining her, making sure that she’s not lying about her health.
Everything about Samantha in the media right now is messed up. Her wedding has become the hottest topic and her health has been deteriorating since then. Her family couldn’t help but get worried about the current predicament of her life.
“I’m fine. I was just lacking sleep because of stress, but I’m really fine. No need to worry.” Samantha said to assure them. Although she’s still currently in crisis, nobody else can help her right now except for Nathan.
“Just always remember that you’re a Zhou and you’ll always have this name to back you up.” Her father, who has been silent all this time said with confidence.
Samantha looked at him with concern. This man who has always protected and sacrificed everything for his only daughter would soon be jailed for something that he didn’t do, just so the power that Samantha has as an heiress would be cut off and the hateful antagonist would be left with nothing.
Same with his brother who died just so the villain would not have a comrade and her mother who almost lost her life just so the main character’s rival would grovel in defeat. All these people who loved her were meant to be ruined just for the antagonist to be miserable.
How cruel… she thought, but that’s just the punishment that Samantha deserves for being the other woman who loves the main lead. Which can be tolerated in books, but not in real life.
No, she can’t accept that. Her goal is to live a glamorous and comfortable life, and for that to happen, she must kill the rat that’s lurking in her family’s company.
“Dad, can I ask you a favor?” Samantha said, her eyes adorably looking at her father, making his mood go up.
“Of course, there’s nothing that I can’t give to my only daughter.” her father confidently said. His smirk rising up his cheeks.
“Can you give me a position in the company. I want to work here.” she stated with a smile. As if she was just asking a piece of candy.
“What? Bub, are you sick?” Sebastian asked, playfully checking her temperature to make sure that Samantha is in her right mind.
“I already said that I’m fine. Why? Can’t I be a part of our business? Is it because I’m a girl?” she replied, swatting the hand of her brother in cheeks.
“Of course not honey, it’s just because you have never been interested in the company. You’ve always said that your end goal is to be Nathan’s wife so we were just shocked.” her mother explained.
“It’s just cause I thought that if I work in the company, I’ll be able to see mom, dad, and Sebastian often. Can’t I?” Samantha explained, her eyes looking like a dejected puppy that had been devoid of treats.
This is her family’s weakness. Ever since she was a kid, she has gotten everything she wanted with just a look in her eyes.
“Alright, take whatever position you want and start working here whenever you desire.” her father said in defeat, a weak smile plastered in his face. It feels like she could get any position in the company that she wants, even her brother’s desk.
She immediately stood up to hug her father.
“You’re really are the best dad” she genuinely happily said.
‘This time, I would protect this family’ Samantha vowed.
