[In Love]
"Uncle Luke, so you . . . ," I paused, finding the right words to say my thoughts. "You, doing all of this is because you wanted to atone for the woman you love . . . through Zoe?"
"Yes, that sums it up."
Uncle Luke sighed and looked at me with his milky blue eyes.
"Leanna, I had a choice back then . . . I made Jansen Conglomerate as it is now, I could make it again even if I was disowned . . . But I didn't . . . and that remained as my life's greatest regret."
When I didn't say anything, he added.
"Leanna, no one taught Zoe on the ways of high society. Her father doesn't care for her, and her mother died when she was still a toddler. She might be crude, but she has a good heart. She's unruly, but––"
"Uncle Luke," I cut him, "I get it. You don't need to tell me anything. I already like Zoe. And besides, we've already become friends the moment we saw each other." I beamed.
