Chapter 614 Zachary’s Plans



Chapter 614 Zachary's Plans

Emily slowly rose from the bed and stretched her arms above her head before making her way to the bathroom. She turned on the shower and waited for the water to warm up before stepping in. The warm water cascaded down her body, instantly relaxing her tense muscles. She lathered up her body and washed her hair, taking her time to enjoy the peaceful moment.

After about thirty minutes, she turned off the shower and stepped out, wrapping herself in a soft towel. She looked at her reflection in the mirror and started applying her makeup. She carefully applied foundation, blush, eyeshadow, and mascara, taking care to enhance her natural beauty.

Just as she was finishing up, her phone started vibrating loudly on the bedside table. Irritated at the interruption, she walked over and picked it up, glancing at the screen. Her expression softened as she saw that the caller was Zachary, the client she hadn't spoken to since the game.

"Hi, Zachary!" Emily spoke after placing the accept button and holding the phone against her ear. "I'm glad you called, and I hope you're doing well. How are you feeling today, and how has your morning been so far?" freew(e)bnovel

"I'm doing okay," he replied, but he didn't sound okay.

Emily detected a lack of liveliness in his voice and empathetically inquired, "Are you really okay? Please remember that I am here for you, and you can always confide in me."

He hesitated before speaking again, "Honestly, I feel down. Losing the Champions League final hit me more than I expected. I guess I'm a sore loser." He ended with a self-deprecating laugh.

"I'm so sorry," she said with genuine sympathy. "I can't even begin to imagine what you must be going through. But please don't forget that time is a great healer. Every day that passes, you will feel a little better and closer to your old self. Also, if you focus on the positives, this loss could be a turning point for your football career. It may even give you the extra motivation you need to excel. So, please stay strong and keep pushing forward, Zachary."

"You always know how to make me feel better, Emily," said Zachary. "You're an amazing agent and friend! Thank you!"

"You're welcome," Emily replied cheerfully. "I'm guessing you didn't just call to hear my pep talks!"

"Emily, you know me too well," chuckled Zachary. "I have a proposition for you. Let's speed up all the plans this summer break. Whether it's finalizing and renewing all our endorsement deals or starting up my investment company, I want us to complete everything quickly so that I can refocus on my football career."

"Is that so?" Emily's voice rose up a notch. "How do we go about this?"

"Start by fast-forwarding the talks with the Nike representatives," Zachary said. "If possible, I would like to sign the new agreement before I leave for my vacation. Also, bring Miss Heather Miller on board and let her think of a way to quickly put all my investments under my new company."

"Okay, I'll call Miss Heather and bring her on board," replied Emily. "But we all need to meet and discuss everything in detail, including the capital input for the new company and the new investments you will make."

"That's a must," Zachary said. "We'll meet back at my house in Turin after I return. Let's meet next Wednesday morning. I'll call on Tuesday to confirm everything."

"Okay, I think I'll make it," Emily said. "Zachary! There's a question I must ask."

"Go ahead and shoot. I'm all ears."

"I'm not saying it has happened, but let's say one of the biggest teams in the world showed interest in having you on their squad. And suppose they were to trigger your release clause, what would your thoughts be on the matter?"

"Emily, it doesn't matter which team has made the offer. I'm not leaving Juventus," he said with determination. "I'm happy with my career progress, and don't forget that I have a great chemistry with my teammates. Besides, I want to win the Champions League before I even consider moving."

"Okay, I get it," Emily let out a sigh. The top teams, such as Barcelona, Real Madrid, Manchester City, and Bayern Munich, had all been calling her non-stop to poach Zachary from Juventus during the upcoming transfer window. However, Zachary had no plans to move, so she would have to turn down all these offers.

"Can you tell me your plans for the summer break?" asked Emily.

"I told Kasongo that we'd go on vacation together during the break," he explained. "But I want to finish setting up the company and signing the new Nike endorsement deal before I take off."

"Wow," exclaimed Emily. "So, our training maniac is finally taking a break. Interesting!"

"Ha ha, you know what they say - vacation doesn't mean taking a break from fitness," Zachary laughed. "I'm actually traveling with my fitness trainer to keep me in shape. We're planning to do some daily workouts so that I don't lose all the progress I've made all these years. It's important to me to stay fit and healthy, even during the summer break!"

"Ah, now that's the Zachary I know," joked Emily over the phone. "For a moment there, I thought someone was impersonating you." She had been feeling down after watching Juventus lose last night, but talking to her client and friend Zachary always seemed to lift her spirits.

Zachary replied with a chuckle, and they continued to catch up about everything that had been going on in their lives. He told her more details about his upcoming plans for his holiday from football, discussing his training schedules and the specifics of his investments and potential new endorsement deals. Emily listened intently, always impressed by Zachary's determination and dedication to everything he did.

As the call went on, Zachary continued to act as the adult, keeping the conversation focused and on track. Emily appreciated his steadiness, which helped to ground her and bring her back to a more positive mindset. By the time they said their goodbyes, Emily was feeling much better than she had before the call started.

She hung up the call and let out a self-deprecating smile. As the agent, her job was to console her client, who had lost a crucial game. However, Zachary had quickly taken over the task and had become the one to comfort her instead.
