Chapter 1089

Chapter 1089A beautiful lady came out as soon as the driver parked his car at the gate of the villa
She hugged Colin, who just got off the car, and exclaimed, “My son! I can’t believe you are really here!”
Colin’s expression softened. He threw his arms around her and patted on her shoulder in an attempt to
calm her down.
He had only come back a handful of times during the past few years abroad.
At first, he didn’t want to come back because this city had broken his heart.
Then, he was too busy with all kinds of research and didn’t have time to come back.
Fortunately, his parents would attend various symposiums abroad. So they still had the chance to meet
each other a few times each year.
Although it was his mother who drove Zuri away, he blamed Nia more for not sticking around.
Yes, his mother did threaten her. But if Zuri insisted, his mother would eventually compromise. Zuri said
that she loved him. Facing the lure of money, however, she ditched him without even the slightest
hesitation. This was what made him sad, desperate, and angry.
“Good to have you back.” Colin’s mother, Colleen Donovan, turned away and wiped her tears.
novelbinShe thought that Colin would be forever mad at her for driving away Zuri. For years, she lived in fear of
Colin never coming back. She was more than relieved to see him back.
Colin was the only son in this family. Although it was also nice for him to pursue a bright future abroad,
his family still wanted him to go back to Vertoak.
Knowing that Colin would be back today, the dinner was prepared Long ago.The family of three sat at the table in the dining room. ConsidKatharineg that Colin had just got off the
plane and was probably suffKatharineg from jet lag, they didn’t invite all their friends and relatives.
The dinner went well until Colin’s father, Randall, asked Colin, “The biology professor job at Vertoak
University, have you made up your mind?”
Colin put down the chopsticks.
“I’ve already turned it down.”
Randall nodded.
“So, you are going to take a job at the research institution?”
Colin replied calmly, “I turned that down as well.”
“What did you just say?” Randall and Colleen both asked in disbelief. In their opinion, those two jobs
were decent and stable. They could accept any one Colin chose.
Colleen came around and murmured, “Then, what’s your ideal job?”
“I’m not looking for a job right now.” Colin’s words shocked his parents.
He didn’t tell his parents that he had started a leading biotech company. The Smiths had always been a
family of scholars. Colin was the first person in the family who went into business.
If he told his parents about that, they would definitely try to stop him. They wouldn’t agree to his idea
even if he promised that this wouldn’t affect his school work.
