The Apple of My Eye -
Chapter 304 Not The Company's Shares
"Why are you being so upset over this?" Autumn was amused by Isla and said to her, "Don't you trust Aron?"
"No, I..." Isla was muddled by Autumn's question, she asked herself whether she really doubted Aron's ability to solve the problem.
The answer was, yes.
She didn't trust Aron from the beginning up to the end.
She kept saying that she believed in Aron's words, but in fact, from four years ago to the present day, she never really believed in his words.
It was the truth four years ago, and it would still be the truth four years later.
May be it was just as the old saying had suggested, "a bystander is always clear-minded". Autumn could clearly see what Isla's problem was. Isla never really trusted Aron from the beginning, up until the end. "It's not that I don't trust him. It's... How do I say it?" Isla thought that Jina's conditions were quite excessive. She was afraid that after all the problems they had gone through to be together again, their hardships will have been in vain because of Jina.
"Autumn, It is so hard for me and Aron to come to this. From the moment I found out that he came to me even though he had stomach perforation, I've realized that he is the most important person in my entire life. I could never be with another guy, because no matter who I'm with, Aron would always be in my heart." This was the first time Isla had spoken about her feelings for Aron to another person, "But you are right, I don't trust him, maybe it was because I don't trust myself. I always feel that a person as good as him would not even take a look at a Cinderella like me."
"You just think too much, "Autumn said straight to Isla's face and then continued, "What did you tell me when I was with Charles, why would it not workout the same way for you?" "I..." You can never know how a person really feels unless you try walking a mile in their shoes.
Autumn understood Isla's hesitation, so she tried to comfort her, "Relax, Aron is a person worthy of your trust for life. You can wait and see. He will certainly handle this matter responsibly." "Really?" Isla was asking Autumn, but also herself.
Aron sending Isla away with an excuse was actually for him to discuss this matter with his parents. Aron asked Isla to go out for a while because she was getting very emotional. "Since Isla has left, what did you want to speak about?" Jina sat up straight in a leading posture and asked Aron in front of her.
In truth, it didn't matter whether Aron would transfer his assets to Isla's name, she just wanted to test his attitude.
"Uncle John, Aunt Jina, a lot of things have happened in the past. I know that you've doubted my feelings for Isla, but now that I'm here, I'd like to talk about it with you." Aron frowned and told them how he was set up by Becky four years ago; he pushed himself to confess everything to the parents of the Zhao family. He paused for a moment and then said to them, "I'm not telling you this to escape from my responsibility, but I feel that... You have the right to know the truth. It's not that I didn't love Isla, but there was too much thing between us that we couldn't control."
John could not believe it when he heard this from Aron, according to his recollection Becky was a good person. He couldn't believe that a good girl like Becky could do such horrid things.
He frowned slightly and said to Aron in front of him, "Since it's already happened once, how can you guarantee that Becky won't try it again?"
John sighed and then continued, "We are just worried because Isla has suffered too much because of this. She got used to hiding the pain in her heart no matter what happened. As her parents, we just don't want her to suffer anymore."
"I understand what you are concerned about, but that is why I am here today, to solve this problem." Aron smile and kept going on, "I have made things clear with Becky, I promise to protect Isla if she continues to disturb her. I would not let her suffer more. I just asked Aunt Jina how to believe that I am serious about Isla, and she gave me some advice. If this can really give you confidence, then I will do it." "You... What did you say?" Hearing what Aron said, Jina was too hard to believe," Are you really willing to do this?"
"Yes, I do." Aron said humbly, "I have two real-estates in Y City, one of them I want to leave to my grandparents, but the other one, I am willing to transfer its ownership to Isla's name as soon as you want me to."
"As for cars and company stocks, I can give them to Isla as long as you will allow me to marry your daughter." Aron said it sincerely, so that John and Jina would trust him.
They looked at each other with a little hesitation, then Jina asked Aron, "Will your... grandparents allow this?"
"This is my own business, so I don't need their consent." Aron said gently, "When is it convenient for you? Let's finish the procedures together, so that I can bring my grandparents over to your house and talk about the wedding."
"It's just..." Aron hesitated for a moment, and then he said to them, "Uncle John, Aunt Jina, I don't have any problems giving everything to Isla, except for... the company's shares." Looking at their concerned faces, Aron hastily explained, "It's not that I don't want to give her the shares, it's..."
Aron also had his own reasons. Although the company was operated by him, he was not the sole proprietor. When Mike and Joanna transferred their shares to Aron, it aroused great discontent from Aron's uncle's family. If Aron were to transfer his shares to Isla, his cousin would do everything in his power to destroy him.
After listening to Aron's explanation, Jina sighed and said, "You don't have it easy either."
She continued, "To tell you the truth, we don't really want anything from you. I just want to see how far you are willing to go for Isla. Now it looks like... Isla's dad and I can finally be at peace."
Jina laughed and continued, "But I have to warn you that if you let Isla suffer in the future, I will never let you go."
"Please rest assured, your daughter's happiness is in my hands, "Aron answered happily.
