Their great-grandfathers made a pact about their engagement a hundred years ago...

Simon's words brought him back to reality, and the force of his fall threatened to choke him with the impact.
”Zed...” Zack said, walking towards him and placing a hand on his shoulder heavily. ”Don't overthink it. There are other things you have to think about too. Keep in mind why you're going back. You can't let anyone else take control of Sky International,” Zack's grip tightened before he continued. ”Don't forget what Uncle Simon had told you. Once he's gone, you don't need to show mercy to Aunt Sara...”
”Did Uncle Simon really say that?” Jean asked, her eyes wide in surprise.
”Yes. It was a shock even for me!” Zed nodded to Jean and sighed, ”As I said before, it's not possible that Uncle Simon knew nothing about Aunt Sara's trick. He must have known something.”
”Did you ask Uncle Simon if he knows Sara's men in Sky International?” Jean asked with concern.
”Oh, I forgot...” Zed said, sounding dazed.
Jean looked at him, noticing his absentmindedness and said, ”Don't worry. It'll only take a bit of time to find out.”
”We don't need to waste our energy to investigate it,” Zack cut in. ”If we think about it, Uncle Simon had no other option in that situation, so he let Aunt Sara do as she pleased. He is regretting that now. Earlier today, he told Zed that he didn't need to show Sara any mercy.”
”Let's not jump to conclusions,” Zed said, shaking his head. ”I will talk to Uncle Simon.”
”Sounds good! It's the best and most direct way to know what had happened.” Jean nodded to show her agreement.
Zack gazed at them with a meaningful smile on his face. ”It seems that you two have made a really good connection without my company. I'm getting jealous here, you know,” he teased.
”Zack...” Jean said, chuckling, ”You're gonna have to work hard to find yourself someone if you're feeling envious. Do you still remember what Grandpa told you?”
”Why are you saying this?” Zack's face suddenly changed.
