She didn't know where Zion was going to take her, but she knew that this man would be with her from now on and would never leave her alone.
Zion drove the car to the top of the mountain and took out a coat from the back seat for Evangeline.
Evangeline was a little stunned when she saw the coat that Zion had carried into the car.
"Is this my coat?"
"Yeah. I simply left one here. You are my woman in the future. Of course, there will be something you need in my car."
Zion's words made sense, and Evangeline's heart was suddenly filled with sweetness.
"What are you going to do?"
"Tomorrow, I'll go to the Fang Group to find Jake and take Rita home."
There was a hint of hesitation in Zion's eyes.
Evangeline knew that although he said it was simple, things would not be that simple. However, Zion was full of confidence, so she was more or less at ease.
"I haven't seen her for a long time. I'll go with you tomorrow."
"No, you go home."
Zion's words stunned Evangeline.
"What did you say?"
Looking at the surprise in Evangeline's eyes, Zion gently touched her head and said softly, "Evangeline, you've been out for a long time, and you're not out here under normal circumstances. Your parents, sisters, and younger brothers must be very worried. You couldn't leave because of the task before. Now that the task is over, it's time for you to go home."
"Zion! You just want to send me away, don't you?"
Evangeline's eyes turned red.
This man was really not worth of her compliments.
Not long ago, she felt that she no longer needed to worry about gains and losses. She did not expect that he would chase her away as soon as it was over.
It was especially unfair.
Looking at Evangeline's red eyes, Zion suddenly panicked.
He finally understood what Nathaniel had said. At that time, Nathaniel asked him what he would feel if he saw Evangeline's tears.
At that time, he didn't know how to answer. He was at a loss, but now his tears had not yet fallen. Just the red-rimmed eyes made Zion want to pick up the stars in the sky for her.
"Don't cry! Can you listen to me?"
"So you don't like me anymore."
Evangeline suddenly turned her head, but she was still sad.
Zion said in a hurry, "No, I've thought about it. I've already called my parents to tell them to prepare for the wedding. I don't think your parents are ready yet. Besides, we've already had a wedding ceremony in advance. I don't know if you have a baby in your belly now. I'll be worried about you in the end. Besides, I remember that you said that you would design a wedding dress for yourself. Have you forgotten? Evangeline, I want to marry you as soon as possible. If you haven't finished the wedding dress, I may not be able to wait any longer."
Evangeline couldn't help but be stunned.
She had only told Emily about her design of the wedding dress, but she didn't expect Zion to know about it.
All of a sudden, she didn't know what to feel.
"It takes at least a month to design the wedding dress."
"That's why I asked you to go back first. When you're done, I'll come and marry you."
Zion's eyes were shining like thousands of stars, making people involuntarily sink into them.
Looking at the exhausted Evangeline, Zion lit a cigarette, smoked two mouthfuls of smoke outside, and then threw it away. He then called Emily.
"Ask your brother to pick your sister up."
Emily was not surprised at all. She nodded and said, "Zion, although my sister looks like a big man, in fact, she values love more than anyone else."
"I know. Don't worry. I will be your brother-in-law soon! Take good care of your sister for me. I will definitely not treat you badly in the future.”
"Thank you."
Emily hung up the phone.
Zion looked at the sleeping Evangeline, unwilling to part with her. However, his actions would be very dangerous in the future. Moreover, he was no longer a soldier. Without the support of Carlson, he would not dare to think about what he would face.
He kissed Evangeline, got in the car, and drove slowly to the airport.
By the time Zion arrived at the airport, the Sanchez family had already arrived. The person who had come to pick Evangeline up was actually Eugene!
Zion couldn't help but be stunned.
"Uncle Sanchez? Why are you here?"
"I'm here to pick up my girl!"
Eugene glared at Zion.
Zion was a little depressed. He didn't know how he had offended Eugene. He only felt that the look in her eyes was like a knife stabbing him, making him involuntarily take a step back.
No matter how powerful the military region was, the man in front of him was his father-in-law. He didn't dare to do anything.
Eugene took Evangeline, who was still sleeping, from Zion's arms. When he brushed past Zion, he couldn't help but kick him. He said angrily, "My daughter has become yours just like that! Keep a low profile and look at your neck, as if you're afraid that the world doesn't know what you guys just did. I'll tell you, you're the son of Nathaniel, but if you were anyone's son, I would have crippled you here!"
