Broken Memories, Intertwined Hearts novel Chapter 196

A twinkle of amusement flashed in Ethan's eyes as he pinched Izzy's cheek, "Can't you use a nicer word to describe your husband?"

Izzy, a bit embarrassed by Ethan's tease, pouted and said seriously, "You're too sly."

"When dealing with someone who might back out at any moment, talking about trust just gets you hurt. You need to handle this kind of situation flexibly," Ethan chuckled.

"Alright, I will listen to you."

Seeing that there was nothing major going on with Izzy, Ethan prepared to return to the Meyer Group, but he instructed her with concern, "Call me if you don't understand something, okay?"

Izzy pushed Ethan out, "Mr. Meyer, please leave. You being here just makes me look incapable. Go away."

"You cheeky girl, I'm getting in your way just by being here a bit longer?"

"Yes, you got it right. You're in the way. Off you go."

Silas was very pleased with the way they interacted, although they had a shotgun wedding, their relationship was definitely better than that of Emma and Aiden Ramos. Their every move was filled with love.

As soon as Emma came out, she immediately called her mother, "Mom, have you seen the Galeana Group press conference?"

Shirley's voice sounded weak, "I just saw it."

"Do you know what happened to Dad? Why did he suddenly let Izzy take over as chairman?" Emma was worried sick.

"I wouldn't know. Your father never tells me about the company's affairs."

"You should at least know about his health, right?"

"I don't know about that either."

"You don't know anything. That's your husband. How can you not even know about his health condition? What kind of wife are you?" Emma was angry and had nowhere to vent but to her mother. There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while. Emma realized her attitude was bad and softened her voice, "I'm sorry Mom, I didn't mean to target you, I just couldn't hold it in. If Izzy becomes chairwoman then what place will I have in the company? She called all the department directors for a meeting today, except for my PR department."

Actually, Emma was blaming Izzy unfairly. This was all arranged by Silas alone. He was afraid that Emma would cause trouble, so he deliberately ignored her. Izzy had no idea about this.

It took a while for Shirley to find her voice, "You know, even though we moved here, your father has always slept alone in a room. He spends two-thirds of his time at the company. I really don't know anything about his health condition."

Emma was both angry and annoyed, and her eyes were red involuntarily.

"What did they say?" Shirley asked again.
