Chapter 186 Heartache
After Alia said this, Zhang Wei had something to say:
"He doesn't have any courage at all. If he really had the courage, he would have left the family and elope with that Anika. He is just a coward and selfish!"
"He doesn't dare to rebel against his family. He wants to enjoy the generous conditions provided by his family, but he is unwilling to give up his lover, so he can only sacrifice you and his girlfriend."
"And since he let Anika beat you this time, he might do it himself next time. What else do you have to linger on?"
She said all these words in one breath, and she finally felt better. She didn't expect that a girl as beautiful and kind as Alia would be so short-sighted.
"Alia, your requirements are too low. The most important condition for finding a partner is loyalty." Butch said with some regret.
"As Vera said, he doesn't have any good qualities. Instead, he's selfish and rude. What does he look like?" She looked at Zhang Wei, who said coldly:
“Like a German sausage”
"Okay, he's ugly, so what else do you like about him?"
When Alia heard how they criticized Zim, she thought she might have misjudged him. The wound on her body still hurt slightly. Looking at everyone's concerned eyes, she couldn't hold it back any longer. She stopped crying silently and burst into tears.
Zhang Wei was so scared that he quickly closed the window, fearing that it would attract the patrolling teacher.
Tracy, who was always quiet, also comforted her: "Your wedding ceremony in India has no legal effect here. If you have your passport, you can rest assured!"
Alia then slowly stopped talking and began to calm down.
When leaving Alia's room, Butch called Zhang Wei and asked cautiously with his neck shrunk:
"You were in the lab building that day, right? That's why you could expose me right away."
Zhang Wei raised his eyebrows and said, "People, it's best not to do bad things, otherwise there will be backlash!"
Butch said with a bitter face: "Every time after the experiment, Fred asked me to stay and clean up, and he also threatened me with his eyes. I didn't dare to do it anymore."
Zhang Wei didn't trust her too much either. Human nature is complicated. She wouldn't do anything at the moment. Now the east wind prevails over the west wind. Who knows what will happen in the future? However, she would be cautious most of the time.
Alia took a few days off to recuperate. She only went to class after the injuries on her face were no longer visible. Gradually, she returned to her previous routine and study rhythm.
In order to catch up with her studies, she also planned to look for a job during the holidays, and Butch said he could help her find a job.
The holidays in the second half of the year are really long. The Easter holiday starts at the end of March and lasts for three weeks. Then the summer vacation starts at the end of May and lasts until September.
It can be said that in half a year, class time only accounts for one-third.
Although the class time was not long, she still took the exam. Although Zhang Wei was almost too busy during the review period before the exam, fortunately, Zhang Wei had been studying hard. When she received the report card, she saw that she got an A in all the subjects, and she felt much happier.
Because it was already summer vacation, and Manny was probably still wandering around in the jungles of America.
During this period of time, mother Emma worried about Manny in every way that she had never worried about in the first half of her life.
Although there was occasional news and Charles comforted her not to worry, Emma would sometimes check where Manny was and look for some information, and then she would discover some dangerous situations in the local area, so she was often uneasy.
Zhang Wei felt that Emma was not so prone to anxiety before. It might be because she was in menopause and encountered the Manny incident, which affected her overall state.
"What should I do?" Zhang Wei was also helpless at this time. She went to Namier's room and saw him packing his luggage.
"Actually, I don't quite understand why Mom is so worried," Namir said without stopping his hands.
"Isn't it normal to worry about your own children?" Zhang Wei felt that boys were just more nervous.
"But Leida was also alone in London before. He also went to the North Pole by himself. You went to Yellowstone Park by yourself in second grade. And Manny didn't go there looking for excitement. He just wanted to see the world."
"So, I don't think this is a good thing, and my mom is making a big deal out of it."
“Then you can tell your mother this.”
"I've already said that Mom isn't any more relaxed." Namir was also a little helpless.
Thinking about it this way, Emma has indeed been acting unusual recently. Zhang Wei considered whether to suggest that Emma see a psychologist to solve her recent emotional problems.
Fortunately, people abroad don’t think seeing a psychologist is a strange thing. It’s a common disease, just like the common cold, so Zhang Wei went to suggest it to Emma.
Charles happened to hear Zhang Wei's advice and agreed:
"Vera is right. You haven't been in good shape recently. You don't need to worry too much about Manny. The people I arranged have already joined their team, so there's no need to worry too much about safety."
Then he looked at Emma gently and said:
"Your health is more important now. I hope you are not only a mother, but also yourself. The latter is more important to me."
Zhang Wei was forced to eat a large bowl of dog food, and Emma immediately agreed to see a psychologist the next day.
Zhang Wei and Charles accompanied her because Namier had already gone to attend the ice hockey summer camp. This time they could train with the world's top ice hockey players and receive close guidance.
While Emma was chatting with the doctor, Zhang Wei and the others were waiting outside. Charles is usually very busy and only gets home at night, so he can take time out on weekday mornings to accompany his wife to see the doctor, which shows how much he values Emma.
"Vera, you are such a thoughtful child." Charles praised her generously.
Zhang Wei smiled and said, "Mom is very happy to have you around. I'm afraid I'm a bit redundant."
Charles didn't seem to understand Zhang Wei's joke and retorted seriously, "No, we feel lucky to have you by our side."
"I also feel very lucky to be with my parents." This is Zhang Wei's heartfelt thought.
"You're still a child, you don't need to worry about so much. Is it because of mom that you didn't participate in activities like Namiel during the summer vacation?"
"No, I promised the teacher that I would help out in the lab during the summer vacation."
Although Zhang Wei said this, the laboratory will actually be on vacation in early June, and only a few researchers will remain, so she will not be needed to help.
Most of his roommates signed up for a summer camp for marine environmental research around the Pacific Ocean. Zhang Wei had already spent some time at sea when he went to the Arctic, so he was not very interested in this.
As for ocean protection, she doesn't eat shark fins or create marine garbage. There is very little that ordinary people can do, so she has no interest in this topic.
