Who’s the Dog Now? novel Chapter 138

Mr. Gonzalez quickly stopped her.

"That's enough. Do you want our daughter to be even more isolated in the future?"

"Our daughter has already handled this herself. I just think that she's growing up, and you should try to communicate with her more instead of constantly forcing her to do things."

A guilty look crossed Mrs. Gonzalez's face.

A servant hurried into the room.

"Sir, madam, the young miss is back."

Mrs. Gonzalez rushed to the door. The moment Naomi stepped inside, she threw her arms around her.

Naomi was taken aback by her mother's sudden display of affection.

It wasn't until her mother started murmuring about how she must have been wronged lately that Naomi realized she must have found out about some things.

She glanced at her father and saw him give her a subtle wink.

Naomi's eyes began to well up with tears.

It was precisely because she had such warm, supportive parents that she had been so conflicted about the situation with Zebulon.

Her parents might be willing to compromise for her now, but Naomi had always known that when she had begged them to move the family business to Tyra, they had relied on help from the Hughes family.

The Gonzalez family might not have to proceed with the marriage alliance, but if word got out, no one would say a bad thing about Zebulon. Instead, they would accuse the Gonzalez family of using and discarding them.

They would say the Gonzalez family had thrown the Hughes family away after getting what they wanted, and her parents would be branded as ungrateful opportunists.

In the world of high society, reputation was everything. If that rumor spread, their business partners would surely look down on her parents.

Naomi sighed internally.

Perhaps she should give herself and Zebulon one more chance.
