His Coy Lover

Thinking of the still-angry Charles, Zelda shivered. It’s better not to provoke Vinson.

After her rebirth, she just wanted to be with Charles, use his power to become strong, and then slowly retaliate against Elle and Burton, causing them to fall from grace and lose everything. As for others… such as Vinson, who had nothing to do with her, she’d stay far away from.

“Knock, knock.”

A knocking sound echoed.

“Come in.”

The bodyguard opened the door, but instead of entering, he respectfully said, “Master, Dr. Bob is here.”

“Let her in.”

The bodyguard stepped aside, and a casually dressed Bob walked in.

She was a middle-aged woman in her forties, appearing gentle and easy to get along with.

“Vinson.”

Bob greeted Vinson politely upon entering.

Vinson nodded lightly and instructed Bob, “Examine her.”

“Alright.”

Vinson stepped aside, exited the room, and closed the door.

Ten minutes later, Bob came out.

Vinson tightly pursed his lips, watching her.

“Vinson, that young lady is very pure.”

One sentence, proving that Zelda had never given birth to a child.

Vinson’s expression changed.

Was he really mentally disturbed?

He waved his hand, and a bodyguard led Bob through a secret passage to leave the Rovella Hotel. No one knew that Bob had been here.

Zelda came out of the room. She remained calm, saying to Vinson, “Vinson, the doctor you invited has given you proof. Can I leave now?”

“Zelda, I apologize for the disturbance.”

Vinson apologized to Zelda sincerely. Despite his stubbornness and domineering nature, he had good manners.

If it weren’t for him being the biological father of the baby, Zelda might have had a different opinion of Vinson.

“Hopefully, Vinson can keep his promise.”Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

We no longer have any bonds in the future.

In her past life, he took away her innocence but allowed her to marry Burton. Occasionally meeting at social events, there was no strange behavior.

Maybe, as he said, he had surgery on his head, which might have caused memory loss, forgetting some things.

The baby was already dead, and in this life, it was unlikely to be conceived in her womb again.

The bond between mother and daughter had ended.

She didn’t want to harbor resentment towards Vinson.

With Vinson’s intervention, Zelda didn’t go to the hospital. Instead, she hailed a taxi and went straight to the Roscente Group.

As the biological daughter of the Roscente family, the on-duty security guards and front desk dared not stop her. She went directly upstairs to find her father.

Peck was about to go out to meet guests when he received an internal call from his secretary, learning that Zelda had arrived. He waited in his office for Zelda.

“Dad.”

Zelda knocked on the door and entered, calling her father with a smile.

The sweet voice made Peck’s face blossom with joy.

“Why are you here?”

Peck asked lovingly, “Are you alone? Didn’t you go back to find your mom?”

Zelda walked to her father’s side, affectionately holding one of his hands, coquettishly saying, “Does Dad not want to see me? Then I won’t agree; I want Dad to see me every day.”

Peck lightly tapped her cute nose. “Dad is very pleased. How could I not want to see you?”

“That’s more like it.”

Zelda rubbed against her father’s arm and then let go of her hand.

Not used to being coquettish, it was quite embarrassing.

Fortunately, there was no third person in the office, so her coquettish appearance wasn’t seen by anyone.

“Take a seat.”

Peck invited Zelda to sit down. After she sat down, he asked, “Want something to drink?”

“Dad, I’m not thirsty. If I get thirsty, I’ll pour water for myself.”

Father and daughter didn’t need to be overly polite.

“How about it, Dad asked for Charles’s opinion. Did he agree to you working in our family company?”

Zelda smiled, “Charles agreed, and I can start working anytime.”

“Really?”

“Dad, I wouldn’t dare to make a joke about Charles. If he didn’t agree, I wouldn’t dare to come and tell you.”

That lord was very stingy.

Ah, he’s still mad at her now.

She just sent him messages and called him a moment ago, and he still didn’t answer the phone or reply to messages.

Peck felt that his daughter definitely didn’t have the courage to go against Charles’s wishes. He said, “Since Charles has agreed to you working, then starting next Monday, you can come to work. Follow Dad, learn well, and in the future, the Roscente will be handed over to you. Don’t disappoint Dad.”

“Thank you, Dad. I will work hard.”

Peck nodded with satisfaction.

With Charles as a son-in-law, he believed his daughter would grow rapidly.

“Zelda, have you and Charles…”

Zelda blushed, shyly calling out, “Dad.”

“Zelda, I’m your biological father. Dad is worried about you.”

Peck actually felt a bit embarrassed too.

“Dad, since I’ve married him, no matter what situation he’s in, I have no regrets. If he doesn’t leave, I won’t give up. I’ve chosen him for this life.”

Peck fell silent.

It seemed that Charles was indeed not very humane; that was the truth!

Although he was overjoyed to have Charles as a son-in-law, he was also a father. The thought of his daughter having to endure widowhood for a lifetime made him feel distressed.

“Dad.”

Peck looked at his daughter lovingly, indicating that she could say whatever she wanted.

“Well, Dad, what do men like the most as gifts?”

“Is it for Charles?”

“Yeah.”

“Well, everyone likes different things. Dad likes to collect antiques, but Charles might not like them. Dad also can’t find out what Charles likes. You can try giving him a tie as a tentative gift?”

Charles’s preferences were tightly sealed.

He was unwilling to let anyone know, and in general, those within three steps of him had no opportunity to find out.

As long as someone got a little closer, the guards of the Winston family would be on high alert, enough to deter everyone.

“You can also consider giving him a valuable watch.”

Peck gave some advice to his daughter, “Charles has a noble status, so the gift you give him cannot be casual. Zelda, do you have enough money? If not, Dad will transfer some money to your account for you to pick a gift. Oh, and the day after tomorrow, you’re going with your sister to attend the Granger family’s banquet. Have you prepared a birthday gift for Miss Zhao?”

Zelda didn’t prepare a birthday gift for Yemmy at all.

In her past life, she went to great lengths to prepare a birthday gift for Yemmy, but unfortunately, Yemmy didn’t like the birthday gift she gave and instead gave it to a servant.

Starting anew, Zelda didn’t have the same good mood to prepare a birthday gift for Yemmy. She had many skincare products, so she could randomly pick a set that she hadn’t used as a birthday gift. Regardless, Yemmy would find fault with whatever she gave.
