Chapter 300 - Take Zio's Heart

"Julian, why are you like this again? It's been five years your wife has run away from you. Can't you think about Zio's future that requires a mother figure?". Viona asked in a rising voice. 

"Didn't I tell you, if you have to win Zio's heart first, then I will marry you".

Julian really hated what Viona said because at that moment his heart hurt, Qiara who ran away and lost contact. He never knew how and with whom Qiara was in Europe. Even he didn't know whether Qiara was still in Europe or had returned.

Viona bit her lower lip when she didn't know what to say, because until now she hasn't been able to win Zio's still cold heart to her.

The boy is too smart and lonely, she doesn't know how to talk to Zio, besides that she also always fails to calm Zio down and it makes her frustrated.

Viona came out of Julian's study with a sad expression because she couldn't bear to see Julian continue to ignore her.

Julian has never rejected or approved their wedding plans, but the parents can't wait to see them get married.

Julian didn't care about Viona's feelings so he didn't intend to pursue her.

~ The next morning ~

Viona came again, because she still wanted to try to win over Zio's heart.

"Aunt, where Zio?". Viona asked while hugging Sarah spoiled from behind.

"It's in his room. Ah yes, while you are there please invite Zio to eat. I'll be waiting for you at the dining table!". Sarah replied with a smile.

"Yes, auntie!".

The super busy Viona went straight to Zio's room excitedly. For Zio's sake, she willingly left her job.

Zio's room.

"Good morning my little star! What are you doing?". Viona asked after successfully entering Zio's room.

The lonely boy only glanced at her briefly from behind the book he was reading.

"Little Star?". Call Viona again because she thinks Zio is ignoring her. 

Feeling annoyed, Zio finally looked up at Viona sarcastically as he asked. "Why do you bother me?".

"I want to invite you to play. Ah yes, why are you busy with heavy books like this? You better learn something more useful, how?".

Viona said hopefully because she was afraid that Zio would reject her.

"What is that?".

Viona was immediately relieved that Zio was willing to respond to her suggestion, she immediately took the chess she had just bought because she knew that Zio really likes math or challenging games. 

Zio raised one eyebrow while watching the chess that Viona brought. 

"I will teach you to be a great chess player, do you want to?". Said Viona, who is really good at chess because she often accompanies her father to play. 

Feeling interested, Zio nodded then he paid attention to Viona's explanation. 

"Do you want to try? Don't be afraid to make mistakes, the name is just learning". Said Viona while handing the chess to Zio. 

Without a lot of action, Zio immediately demonstrated what Viona taught.

It didn't take long, Zio was able to master it, immediately Viona was amazed by Zio's intelligence who was so quick to learn and understand.

"You are great". Viona said while giving her thumbs up.

"Ordinary". Zio replied without any emotion then returned to reading his book. 

Viona felt that she was only a woman who could endure two men whose hearts were like walls of ice that were hard to melt.

Feeling bored with Zio's silence, Viona took him out of the room for breakfast.

Luckily Zio agreed because he was really hungry.

"Geez, grandma's favorite grandson is handsome and very adorable. Have you finished playing with a beautiful aunt?". Sarah asked when she saw Viona and Zio walking together. 

Zio just nodded and immediately climbed into his chair for breakfast.

Sarah could only sigh to see her only grandson ignored her.

"Oh yes aunty, did you see Julian? Why didn't I see him earlier?". Viona asked after sitting next to Zio and realizing that Julian was not there.

"He's out soon, let's have breakfast first!". Sarah replied.

Viona nodded and accompanied Zio to eat, Sarah was very happy to see how much Viona cared about Zio, she was even more convinced to make Viona Zio's mother.

A few moments later.

Julian frowned when he saw Zio close to Viona.

"Do I have to marry Viona? But, will everything be fine after marriage?". Inner Julian.

"Papa ...". The gentle boy got out of his chair and ran over to Julian when he saw him.

Julian immediately caught the boy who was soft and without it, he took him to his arms.

"Have you finished breakfast?". Asked Julian.

"Yes, are we now going to Papa's office?".

Zio blinked several times waiting for an answer from his father.

"Yes".

"Yes...". Zio is very happy because he will see Julian's office. 

After that Julian brought Zio to Sarah.

"Mama, I'm going to invite Zio to the office now because he wants to come". Said Julian.

"But, you haven't had breakfast. At least eat first and then go". Sarah feels bad for Viona who just arrived.

"I'll have breakfast at the office. Okay, I'll go now". Julian said goodbye to his mother and waved at Viona.

Zio also greeted Sarah and Viona before he left with his Papa.

"Auntie, I will also go because there is a meeting this morning". Viona said goodbye to Sarah because she felt there was no point in her lingering in the house because Julian and Zio were not there.

"Can I come with you?". Viona asked after she caught up with Julian.

For a moment Julian was silent, after that he asked. "Where is your car?"

"I use a taxi because my car is at home". Viona answered doubtfully.

"Come in!".

Viona was very happy because Julian wanted to give her a ride, the three of them sat at the back with Zio who became a barrier between them.

All the servants were amazed to see Julian and Viona who looked like a perfect match.

Meanwhile, Qiara was standing waiting for the bus at the stop.. Because today she wants to find another job while waiting for an announcement from YM Entertainment.
