Leopold was slightly stunned.
He looked at Zola and thought that he had misheard.
“They are so in love. Why are they breaking up?’ Leopold wondered.
“Did something happen?” Leopold tried his best to remain calm.
However, his voice was shaking slightly, but Zola could not tell because her mind was not on him.
“Joel’s mother came to look for me.” Zola never thought of hiding it from Leopold.
If she asked him for help, she had to be honest with him.
Leopold suddenly understood.
He knew it. The two of them couldn’t have a relationship crisis so quickly. He could feel how deep their relationship was.
However, it was indeed not easy to deal with when the elders were involved.
With the current situation, Zola would be a stumbling block if the Ellis family Hayden family. The Ellis family people would not tolerate it.

“If I

gave
“I think you should discuss it with Joel.” Leopold could feel Zola’s impatience toward him but still her a sincere suggestion.
“So what if we’ve discussed it? Can I make Joel give up everything for me and let Joel experience the same thing as me and be abandoned by everyone?”Zola asked.
“Joel is different from you. Joel is the Ellis family people. Ellis family people can’t leave Joel alone.” Leopold tried to persuade her.
“Joel has a younger brother outside. Do you know that?” Zola asked Leopold.
Leopold’s heart trembled slightly.
He didn’t know it.
“Ellis family still has a backup candidate. Joel might be abandoned for real,” Zola said.
“But I don’t think Joel will choose to break up with you for the sake of this so-called family business…” Leopold trusted Joel.

“Yasmin will use her death to threaten him.” Zola suppressed her emotions. “Yasmin has been brooding over the fact that Joel has a younger brother outside. She will never allow the illegitimate child outside to take over the Ellis family’s assets. If Joel turns against the Ellis family because of me, Yasmin loses. With her personality, she might die in front of Joel, Zola tried to be calm as she said.
Leopold was silent. He was suddenly speechless.
“Will there still be so-called expectations and happiness when a human life is involved?” Zola asked Leopold.
She had resigned to her fate.
All the luck in her life had been used up before she turned 25.
For the rest of her life, she did not know what was left for her.
“So you asked me to come here because you want to use me to break up with Joel?” Leopold instantly understood.
“Yes” Zola nodded. “Since we’re choosing to break up, it must be more thorough. I don’t want to give Joel any hope or leave any leeway for myself. Joel knows that I used to like you. Joel will believe I don’t love him anymore if you cooperate with me and put on a show.”
Leopold did not immediately agree to Zola.
He wondered if there was a better way for them not to break up so badly.
‘Since Yasmin only wants the Ellis family’s assets, does that mean that as long as Joel takes over the assets, she can accept Zola?’ Leopold was lost in thought.
“You don’t want to?” Zola asked him with some sarcasm and self-mockery.
She had expected that he might not be willing. After all, if he helped her, it would hurt the friendship between him and Joel.
Zola thought that for Leopold, his interests were the most important.
“I feel that perhaps everything has not gone to such extremes. Yasmin did not want you to be with Joel because she was worried that Joel would anger Adley so that he would not be able to inherit the Ellis family. business. However, if Joel goes to work seriously from now on and receives Alley’s recognition of his ability, Adley won’t force Joel to marry a woman he doesn’t like,” said Leopold.
“You’ve been in the Hayden family for so many years. Do you think it’s just because of the inheritance of the company? Isn’t the so-called social status entrenched in upper-class society? With my current status, what right do I have to marry into the Ellis family?” Zola asked calmly.
“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with your identity. Joel likes you, so you’re qualified to be with him. The so-called social status is just an excuse. If two people are in love, even gender is not a problem, let alone social class..” Leopold said.
“But I’m still the person Georgina hates the most. Will Georgina allow me to be with Joel? Especially now, She wants to set up Jaelynn with Joel! If she finds out that I’m now related to Joel, I can’t even imagine what methods she will have to deal with me!” Zola’s tone was indescribably excited as she said.

“No matter what, I still don’t think we should make a decision so rashly. We can’t be anxious about relationships. I suggest you explain it to Joel. You two need to talk about it. There are always more solutions than difficulties…” Leopold was still trying to persuade Zola.
“Leopold, are you afraid that no one will like me anymore?” Zola interrupted him and asked.
Leopold’s heart ached.
In front of Zola, no, even if she was not in front of him, even if he only thought of her, his heart would often ache uncontrollably.
“You’re afraid that I’ll come to pester you again when no one likes me,” Zola said indifferently.
As she spoke, the corners of her lips curled up slightly in mockery.
“That’s why you’re so afraid I’ll break up with Joel.” Zola’s eyes seemed to be a little red, but it was also as if it was just an illusion
She was smiling at this moment.
He couldn’t tell what she was smiling for.
“No. I only feel it’s not worth it for you and Joel to break up because of external reasons. Relationships can’t be decided so quickly. You’ll regret it,” said Leopold.
He was the example.
“That’s my business. I didn’t ask you to come here today to persuade me or stand at the level of a great person to give me advice and tell me that feelings can transcend everything. I only asked you to put on a show with me to make Joel believe you’re the one I love from the beginning to the end. I want to make him believe I’m only grateful to him.” Zola’s tone was impatient and anxious. She did not want to talk about it with Leopold anymore.
She had already made her choice by agreeing to Yasmin’s request.
She might regret it, but she had no choice.
Leopold’s Adam’s apple bobbed.
He did not know if he should agree to Zola.
He was afraid that he would help her make the wrong choice by agreeing to do so.
He hoped that she could live a better life. Just like last night. She smiled and told him she was happy
He said, “Zola, let’s discuss this with Joel…”
“Leopold, why is it so difficult to ask you to do something for me?” Zola asked him.
Her voice was very soft.
However, it seemed to have collapsed to the extreme.

She said, “I’ve never been so powerless to anyone except you. I feel like no matter what I do or ask you to do for me, you keep saying no. How annoying I am to you? Why do I annoy you so much?”
