" Sorry for making you wait Grandpa.Did you wait too long"Said Zoey.
"No, I just arrived here." John lied blatantly.
John's secretary Ivan's lips twitched at the lie.
John has been waiting here for around an hour even though the time was set to be 7 and Zoey has a habit of coming half an hour early. He could not understand why John favours only her even though he has so many.
" Are you sure you are not lying, Ivan's lips twitched just now."Zoey teased him, feeling happy that she has arrived 30 mins earlier. She knew he has the habit of waiting for her.
John chuckled. Ivan stepped outside.
"Zoey, how are you, i have not yet visited your place." John is a busy man.
He was the king of the Oberoi Empire, which was even bigger than the Hunts, He was a self made man, He had worked really hard to be at the position he is right now as the CEO of the Oberoi Corporation.
"Its the same as always, there's nothing out of ordinary happening in my life."Said Zoey.
John was a good friend with the elder Hunt but the problem between James and Zoey led to the severed relationship between the two families.
Due to all this oberoi corporation has taken a harsh blow in their stocks and this was overcome by the help of Smith Enterprise.
"Do you want me to get rid of that woman?"
"No, Grandpa, One blow to her and the whole Hunt army will be after us."
She could have agreed if she was the woman she was three years ago but now she wanted to let go of the past and the label of the ex-fiancee obsessed with the thigh she is clutching.
"You have changed so much in these three years."John said remembering the past her, who was spoilt and always had her way.
" I no longer want to be the hateful version of myself."
"You have done so much for that useless bastard." said John.
The past will be the past and now I will not remain in the past but The future will be new. It will be in my hands.
John's face soften, the girl in front of him is really damaged, there is nothing he could do to turn back the time.
"Grandpa shall we order something to eat now."Said Zoey.
Zoey knew that it was of no use to be involved with James anymore and it was unwise to attack Chloe. She is very protected by James.
James won't let anyone harm his love and because the Hunt was a powerful family in the country, no one tried to create problems for them.
The previous me was not afraid of them, As she recall everything she had done to Chloe, she spaced out.
"You are spacing out again" said John.
As he saw her stare into the blankness with a blank face.
"I'm sorry grandpa. I just have a lot on my mind." Said Zoey.
After ordering the food, as they were almost done eating,"I can tell" John said wiping his mouth.
He wasn't that type of person who comfort others or say kind words to them but he can show his affection and kindness toward the people he like by his small actions that were very hard to catch and you can easily lose if you don't pay attention.
After the conversation about what happen in the last couple of days they both left the restaurant.
