Love Worth Fighting For

424 Evil plan

“Pregnant, why do I have to be pregnant? Are you out of your mind?!” Charlotte snapped loudly at Johan with great emotion. “How can I approach Christian if I’m pregnant?”

Johan pursed his lips. “But that’s the only way you can approach Christian.”

“Speak clearly, I don’t understand!”

“You and Marianne Clarke are very close, aren’t you?” asked Johan seriously, his eyes flashing with great seriousness.

“Very close,” Charlotte replied confidently.

“Now that’s the key, we can use your close relationship to help you achieve your goal. By claiming to be pregnant with Christian’s child to Marianne Clarke then I am 100% sure that she will immediately ask Christian to take responsibility, as well as Jackson Clarke who is so crazy about his bloodline,” Johan said more clearly.

“Admitting pregnancy to Aunt Anne? You think it will be that easy for Aunty Anne to believe? Then have you forgotten that there is a woman named Zwetta who is now officially Christian’s wife and is pregnant, huh?!” Charlotte snapped full of emotion, Charlotte felt her conversation with Johan was useless talk. “This trash plan of yours is completely useless.”



Instead of being angry at hearing the curse that had just come from Charlotte’s lips, Johan unexpectedly laughed. Johan, who had thought carefully about this plan for the last three weeks, had expected that he would get this kind of rejection from Charlotte. The arrogant girl who had succeeded in satisfying his desires several times was indeed a bit stupid and careless and this was also what made Johan want to use her to smooth out his main plan.

“Zwetta once gave birth prematurely because of Christian’s cruelty in the past,” Johan said slowly, trying to give Charlotte pause to properly digest what he was saying. “Women who have given birth to their babies prematurely must have psychological disorders within themselves and we can take advantage of that to attack them. If this time the baby Zwetta does not survive, then your chance to become Christian’s wife will be very wide open. Especially if at that time you can show clear evidence of the baby’s relationship with Christian, it’s certain that Jackson Clarke will immediately accept you without a second thought.”

.....
“How can you be sure Uncle Jack will accept me?” asked Charlotte quietly, she began to understand where Johan’s conversation was going.

“There will be no grandfather who can refuse the presence of his grandson in this world, especially if you show your pregnancy right when baby Zwetta’s dies. Of course Jackson Clarke will open his arms wide to welcome you and your baby who will definitely become the main heir to the Clarke family business empire .”

“Why do you have to go home? Is there no other way you can do it than to go back to Auckland?”

Areez, who was packing, immediately left his job and rushed to Suri who was sitting on the sofa with a sad face. Three hours ago Aldrich received news that there was a big problem at the Floyen family’s finest winery in Auckland and that only Areez could solve it directly as the principal owner of Auckland’s oldest winery business.

With a chest that felt very tight, Areez raised Suri’s face, which was looking down, staring at the floor of the room which had been covered with the best carpet from Turkey.

“Honey,” Areez breathed hoarsely. “I also don’t want to leave you, for God’s sake I don’t want to be separated from you. You know how crazy I am about you, don’t you?” Areez’s two blue eyes stared deeply at the orbs of the same color that were glazed in front of him without blinking.

“Don’t go then,” Suri said selfishly. “Prove your words.”

“There’s a big problem at the factory and I’m the only person who has to solve it,” Areez replied quietly. “And if I don’t return soon I will lose that precious factory, the only pride my ancestors have inherited. The pride of the Floyen family that has lasted hundreds of years.”

Suri’s face was instantly as white as paper, guilt suddenly came over her for being so selfish as to ask Areez to stay.

“I won’t be long, once the problem at the factory is over I will come straight back to you. I will immediately propose to you and marry you.”

“Not.” Suri immediately reacted quickly. “You can’t do that, I-I don’t want to get married yet. I’m still small and also...”

“You’re twenty-four years old my dear.” Areez chuckled at Suri’s words. “From which side are you called a child, hm?”

Suri gasped, she suddenly realized that at this time she was no longer a teenager. Her current self is an adult girl who is not yet independent. Good grief!!

“I will propose to you after returning from Auckland, I’m sure your father will agree to my request and bless our marriage,” chattered Areez with a wide smile on his face.

Suri slowly lowered her head, Areez’s words, which had previously mentioned her age, made Suri a little disturbed. And the drastic change in Suri’s expression was read by Areez, who swiftly raised Suri’s face again to stare at him.

“What’s bothering you? If you’re afraid I’ll be unfaithful when you return to Auckland then you’re wrong, because for God’s sake I don’t have the slightest desire for another woman. The only woman who can make me flutter and anxious is you Suri, so Don’t doubt my loyalty,” Areez said back.

Suri pursed her lips. “I didn’t think about that.”

“If you’re not worried about me cheating then what are you thinking right now?”

“I’m just thinking about my future,” Suri answered honestly. “After many years, I finally realized that until now I have not succeeded in doing anything that could make Mommy and Daddy proud of me. All the awards that the organization has given me are the result of Mommy’s hard work, which has held many charity events on my behalf over the years. I feel useless, I feel that my existence so far has only made it difficult for the people around me.”

“Suri...”

“That’s why I beg you not to force me to marry first.” Suri continued her words firmly. “I want to show everyone that I am not a spoiled child who can only spend my parents’ money.”

Areez frowned. “What exactly do you want to do? Has anyone ever dared to talk about you all this time?”

“I want to have a business that I can show to everyone who has known me as a Clarke, I want to show the world that Suri Mireya Clarke is a person to be reckoned with in the business world. I want to prove to everyone that I can shine without reflecting the light belongs to someone else,” Suri answered firmly. “That’s why I ask you to support my decision, but if you really can’t wait for me to fulfill my dream then I won’t forbid you if you want to marry another girl.”

“Watch your words, Suri!!”
