Dear Ex-wife Marry Me Novel Full Episode
Chapter 1895

"Zoey, this is the opportunity I've been waiting for, and I don't want to miss it."

At that point, what more was there for Zoey to misunderstand?

Henry had made his decision, and now he was just breaking the news to her.

They were both adults, fully aware of how important careers can be, and their relationship was still in its early stages.

Henry wouldn't pass up this chance for her.

Zoey felt a twinge of sadness as he continued, "Would you consider moving abroad with me?"

"Sorry, I can't leave my parents behind. Henry, are you saying... are we breaking up?"

Henry's silence lingered for a moment before he let out a wry smile. "I don't want to break up with you, Zoey. You might not believe me, but I really do like you. If I gave up this chance because of you, I'm not sure I wouldn't regret it later, or start questioning why you're in my life. We need to be ourselves first before we can be each other's partners."

He reached out slowly, taking her hand that rested on the table.

"The board at the academy wants me to leave in two days. If you don't want to come with me, maybe we could at least get engaged."

To solidify their relationship, to give them both some peace of mind.

For a moment, Zoey hesitated, gazing at Henry's face.

There was no denying that Henry would make a great partner someday, both gentle and resolute.

But to commit to a lifetime so quickly? She wasn't ready.

Thinking of her parents, her uncertainty began to waver.

"Henry, can I sleep on it and get back to you?"

He exhaled in relief, his face brightening with a smile. "Sure, let me know tomorrow, Zoey. I'll be waiting." Arriving home, Zoey's thoughts were still in turmoil.

Her father, Curtis, noticed her unease. "What's up? Trouble with love? Or is it something at school?"

Zoey had kept quiet about the investor's son joining her class, not wanting to worry her parents.

"Henry's been offered a spot at a prestigious music school abroad. They want him to leave in two days. He doesn't want to break up; instead, he suggested we get engaged before he leaves."

"You're not into it?"

"It's not that, Dad. It just feels so rushed. I thought we'd have at least another six months to get to know each other better."

Zoey was slow to warm up to people, and the idea of getting engaged so suddenly set her nerves on edge.

"If you're not ready, then wait. It's not like he's the only fish in the sea. Zion City has plenty of good men."

His daughter chuckled. "I'll give it some thought, Dad."

Just then, her mother, Miranda, burst in, excitement written all over her face.

"Oh my, I went shopping today and won a prize! A two-month European vacation for two! All expenses paid-hotels, flights, and it's all luxury accommodation."

Miranda was bubbling with excitement. "Curtis, you wanted to travel, right?"

Curtis knitted his brows. "I've thought about it, but come on, you must've been scammed. Deals like that just don't fall into your lap."

"It was a bank giveaway, remember the money we saved there? They held a draw for their clients, and I just tried my luck. It's legit-I checked with the bank. But we have to leave the day after tomorrow, and they'll even pick us up. We're saving nearly a hundred grand; the hotel costs ten thousand a night! I've never stayed anywhere so fancy."

Miranda and Curtis, being from special professions, had never indulged in such luxury, always living modestly even when traveling for work. This prize was like a pie from the sky!

Miranda was thrilled, but then she thought of Zoey and her excitement dampened.

If they left, Zoey would be alone at home.

Curtis thought the same. "Ask the bank if we can exchange it for cash. We're about to buy Zoey a house, we can pitch in for a nice car too."

"They said no exchanges. But it's fine, we can wait for Zoey's next vacation and go as a family—that'll be more fun."

Zoey immediately objected. "Mom, Dad, you should go. I'm young; I'll have plenty of chances in the future. Besides, we don't like the same things, and the places we'd want to visit are different. You guys go and enjoy. It's only two months, and it's such a great opportunity. It's rare for the bank to be this generous."

"I'm not comfortable leaving you alone," her father insisted.

Zoey found it amusing yet endearing. After ten minutes of persuasion, she finally convinced them to go.

Lying in bed that night, sleep eluded her.

Henry was suddenly leaving for another country, her parents were off to Europe for two months, and she was left to deal with Fitch, the investor's son, all alone. She sighed, feeling overwhelmed by the sudden changes in her once predictable life.
