chapter 1648

Seeing Tessa explode in anger like that, Zayn immediately asked with concern, “Tessa,

what’s wrong? What happened?”

Tessa immediately put her phone down, raised her head to look at Zayn. she smiled

miserably. “I’m sorry you had to see that, Zayn. I...actually, it’s nothing much. It’s nothing.”

She lowered her head, and her tears dripped down. After taking a pause, she raised her

head to look at Zayn again. “Zayn, let’s...eat.”

Zayn held Tessa’s hand. “Tessa, I am your boyfriend. We are going to be married in the

future. Your matters are mine as well. No matter what issues you need to handle, I can

help you with it. Trust me. Your future husband still has this bit of capability.”

Tessa pursed her lips and smiled. After that, she shook her head. "It’s nothing, Zayn.”

“What exactly happened? Do you want me to die of anxiety? You are already going to take

it to court! Who is pestering you? Quickly tell me!” Zayn was anxious. He looked at her with

concerned gaze, and Tessa finally could not hold back anymore. Her tears came gushing

down her cheeks.

She looked at Zayn very helplessly. “Zayn, I... I have a mother who is insatiably greedy,

especially when it comes to money. Actually, she and my father are already divorced.

However, she kept pestering my dad and has been greedily eyeing my dad’s property.”

“Your...your mother?” Zayn asked.

He looked at Tessa in great shock. He had already known Tessa for one and a half months,

and he had never heard Tessa mentioning her mother. However, he had occasionally

heard her mentioning her father. She had mentioned that her father had opened a medium

size tobacco and liquor store, and he was also into some wholesale business. His annual

income is almost two million dollars. Zayn had heard from Tessa that although her family

was not extremely wealthy, they were also considered well-off. Therefore, Tessa had never

needed to worry about living necessities since young, and she was a pure child with little

concept of money. Zayn also knew that Tessa’s dad doted on his daughter very much. He

loved Tessa dearly. He was a very good cook and always cooked for Tessa.

Tessa had once even told Zayn, “There was once I was so well fed by my dad that I truly

was as fat as a little pig.”

From what Tessa had said, Zayn could tell that she and her father had a very good

relationship. However, the only thing was that Zayn had truly never heard anything about

Tessa’s mother. In the past month or so, Zayn had always thought that Tessa’s mother

might also be doted on by Tessa’s father just like Tessa, as if she was a teenage girl. He

thought that her mother rarely needed to ask about family matters, so that was why Tessa

rarely mentioned her. However, Zayn only learned that day that Tessa’s parents are

actually divorced.

“How long...have your parents been divorced?” Zayn tried to understand the situation. Only

by understanding the situation could he know who should help her. After all, she was

Tessa’s biological mother. Therefore, what exactly was the situation? Under normal

1

circumstances, reconciliation was of course the main goal for mothers and daughters, why

would any daughter in this world want to take her mother to court?

“When I was ten,” said Tessa miserably. Immediate after that, she smiled and said

helplessly, “It’s hard for you to imagine, right? I was actually brought up by my father alone.

That woman had never taken care of me even before she and my father were divorced. It

had always been my father who brought me up by himself. That woman’s name is Hana

Sharpe.”

Tessa never addressed her mother anymore, but called her by her name instead. “Hana

was very young when she married my dad. It was said that she lacked discipline back then.

She had been mingling around with those hooligans in the society when she was about

eighteen years old. One day, Hanna was chased after by several hooligans, and my father,

who had finished his night shift, saved her and brought her home. Ever since then, Hanna

had just been clinging on to my dad. She was lazy but fond of enjoyment, and had never

done any work.”
