Chapter 96: Break in love, passionate love!

After returning to Leeds from London, Leeds United was extremely happy, and everyone was given two days off by Simon Grayson, which was unprecedented for Leeds United players. However, this happened when the Youth Guards spent the devil schedule of the "Gunners", "Reds" and "Blue" and it seemed normal after the "Youth Guards" spent four points in three games.

That night, Zach Thompson received a call from Melissa from New York, USA, which made him very excited. Since Melissa went to the United States, she has only made two calls in the past twenty days. Zach Thompson has called six or seven times, but Melissa either hung up the phone after saying a few words or simply refused to answer the call.

"Merry, I miss you!"

Zach Thompson picked up the phone and started to tell his miss. Melissa was not by his side, making him not even know how to arrange the two days of vacation tomorrow or the next day.

"Shake, I miss you too! Just... You know, I'm really busy at work now. I have to do a lot of professional training every day and meet many producers. I'm really tired. But congratulations, it's an exciting thing to beat Chelsea away. I think you, Jonny, Ben, Carlos and the others have become the heroes of the team!"

Melissa and her family are fans of Leeds United. Although they don’t have time to come to Elland Road Stadium to cheer for the team, she is still very concerned about the recent situation of the “Young Guards”, and at least they can also learn about it through their mobile phones.

Zach Thompson was very proud to hear it: "Ha, Merry, this is nothing at all. I just want to be your hero! There is an idiom in China called 'Heroes Save Beauty'. I, the hero, just want to save you, the beauty!"

"Shake. Thank you!"

"Merry, when will you be back?"

"Shake, I... Well, I think I'll be here for a while. I've received some contracts from designers to train here and have a few large-scale costumes that need to be completed. So... maybe it will take half a year or even a year."

"So long?"

After hearing Melissa's words, Zach Thompson was stunned. He thought that Melissa went to the United States to develop a modeling career just to have fun. Unexpectedly, in less than a month, she seemed to have developed very well there.

"Yes, Shaq, my career is just starting out. I need to stay here in New York, and it's not short. So... Shaq, let's break up."

Melissa's tone was very plain, but it sounded like thunder in Zach Thompson's ears. Melissa was his first love, and he also enjoyed the sweetness of being together. He even felt that Melissa was already his only relative in this world. Zach Thompson had no parents, and his parents had never appeared before when he was in China. In this world, except for football, there was only Melissa.

But now... Melissa is going to break up with me!?

Damn it!

In my previous life, I was a girl who didn’t even have a girlfriend. I didn’t expect that my career would develop well after rebirth and soul transfer. It seems that this love and I are still 100,000 light-years away!

Zach Thompson held the phone and didn't say anything for a long time. Melissa also gave him time to think there, waiting silently for Zach Thompson to speak.

"call--"

Zach Thompson sighed: "Okay, Meli, I respect your choice! The house...and your stuff. I'll pack it and send it to your parents' house?"

"Yeah, OK!"

Zach Thompson could feel his heart was broken, that feeling... it seemed that his whole soul was torn into pieces, but the only humble self-esteem that remained in his life made him say the last sentence in plain words: "Okay, that's it."

"Bang!"

Zach Thompson closed the phone in his hand, clasping the phone tightly with his big hand. He clasped the Samsung phone with good quality and made a slight "rattle" sound.

"ah----"

Tengdi-

Zach Thompson roared and threw the phone in his hand on the floor. The display screen and electronic components were shattered all over the floor.

"Fuck! Damn it! Damn..."

Zach Thompson burst into the empty room with a string of Chinese national curses, and his angular face was extremely ferocious!

Although Zach Thompson is nineteen years old now, his mind is younger than his actual age. He never had the chance to experience love, a noble thing that seems childish but pure in China, until Melissa enters his life.

Two lifetimes of being human, and finally through the soreness of first love!

After venting, Zach Thompson calmed down a little, and only felt in his heart... I wanted to drink!

Zach Thompson no longer remembers which song said that the most effective drug to treat pain after a broken heart is alcohol, but now he thinks this is too damn reasonable!

It's simply the truth!

If you want to drink, you naturally can't drink it alone. Zach Thompson immediately thought of his good brothers Jonny Hausen and Ben Parker. He looked at the broken mobile phone. Zach Thompson grabbed the landline at home and called out. Now he thinks Zach Thompson is really reliable. In modern England, he actually retains landlines and recorders, just to wait for the notice of water, electricity, gas absolute fee. It's so fucking... weird!

"Jonny... It's me, come out to drink with me, you drive to pick me up... Go to your mother's girlfriend, I'm broken up, I just broke up with my girlfriend... OK, I'll wait for you... I'll call Ben now!"

It was already one o'clock in the morning. Jonny Hausen was sleeping with his girlfriend at this time. When he heard that Zach Thompson had broken up, he immediately agreed without saying a word.

After putting down the phone, Zach Thompson called Ben Parker again. The good boy had a girlfriend, but he lived at home. He agreed to come immediately after receiving the phone call.

Jonny Hausen, Ben Parker, the two brothers, know that Zach Thompson's situation is very well known. They all know that this little brother unfortunately lost all his relatives. Melissa is almost all his reliance on him. Although he looks like a tough guy on the court, his spiritual world is still very fragile, especially in terms of feelings. So when they know that Zach Thompson actually broke up, they immediately became worried. Zach Thompson didn't just want to drink alcohol, even if they wanted to take drugs and beat people, they would follow.

Who made them the "Three Musketeers of Leeds", not just on the football field, but also a small group in life!

Jonny Hausen and Ben Parker have been fascinated by Porsche recently. One has a sports car and the other has a SUV. There are no cars in Leeds in the early morning. The two kids drove the car very fast. The "Three Musketeers of Leeds" gathered together after thirty minutes, and then drove the SUV of Jonny Hausen to the most famous nightclub in Leeds...

When the "Three Musketeers of Leeds" went to nightclubs to get drunk together, Simon Grayson held a meeting with the coaching staff after returning from London, and then went to Ken Bates's office at the chairman of the Thorpe Arch training base.

In the office, Simon Grayson met two people, one was the stingy old man Ken Bates with silver hair, and the other was a tall and handsome middle-aged man with deep eyes, a former German legendary star... Oliver Bielhof!

"Hello, Mr. Chairman! Hello, Oliver!"

As soon as Simon Grayson entered, he took the initiative to greet the two. Ken Bates is still the chairman of the club, while Bielhoff is the future boss. Although his coaching performance is excellent enough, it is better to have a lower attitude when facing those who control their own destiny.

Ken Bates and Bielhof were drinking red wine, both of them had smiles on their faces. Obviously, the club's change of ownership went smoothly.

"Simon, come on. Let me introduce you to..."

Simon Grayson laughed and said, "Mr. Chairman, I will not be unfamiliar with Oliver of the German team! The European Cup in 1996 was the greatest reversal I have ever seen so far! Oliver, you are my idol!"

"Hahahaha, Simon, thank you for your compliment!"

Bierkov laughed happily. He also knew that his most brilliant moment was the game against the Czech team in the 96 European Championship final. He came on as a substitute but scored two goals, helping the German team overtake from one goal behind and eventually becoming the king of Europe. This is also his pride, and it is worthy of being remembered.

After Simon Grayson sat down, Ken Bates poured him a glass of red wine and brought it over, while Bielhof smiled and ordered a cigar for him.

"Simon, the deal between Oliver and I has been completed. The club is now liquidating. I will leave after this work is completed. However, Oliver said that all the work can be completed during the winter transfer. After watching today's game where we beat Chelsea away, he said that he must meet you and have a good talk with you."

Bielhof smiled and nodded at Simon Grayson: "Simon, today's game is so exciting. This is a classic battle for our Leeds United to defeat our mortal enemy. I believe that fans will remember it for a long time in the future! My good friend Summer came to watch this game in person. He has a very high evaluation of your coaching ability!"

"oh!?"

Simon Grayson looked at Bielhoff in surprise. Isn’t it rumored that Samer was the one who replaced him? Now Bielhoff obviously expressed goodwill to him... What’s going on?

Bielhof laughed and said, "Simon, you probably heard that Summer will replace you as the team's head coach, right?"

"Yeah, I heard this news."

Bielhoff said it very bluntly, and Simon Grayson did not avoid it.

Bierhoff nodded and said, "Simon, I can tell you that this is not a rumor. We did consider using Summer instead. But after our inspection, my team and I unanimously agreed that you are the best candidate to lead this team. Madias made a report to evaluate you. He gave you the highest evaluation. He said that your control over the team is unique. This team can only move towards a better future under your leadership! So... Simon, now you can rest assured that you will continue to stay in the position of Leeds United head coach. After we fulfill your existing contract, we will determine the situation. How about it?"

"no problem!"

Simon Grayson smiled on his face. He still had three and a half years to contract with the club, and the time was not short.

Bielhof laughed and said, "Okay, let's start talking about the future of the team! Well, Simon, you know, we acquired the team, but I think I still have to tell you the specific situation carefully. To be precise, there is no support from a certain consortium behind us. In fact, my team and I just received support from a venture capital company, with a total investment of 200 million pounds. We used 120 million pounds to buy the team. However, Simon, you can rest assured that we will not give the remaining 80 million pounds.

I will invest in it at one time, but during the winter transfer, I will prepare £30 million for you to strengthen the team. In addition, we will follow the tradition of English football. The transfer rights are still in your hands. You can choose to purchase players within the allowable range of funds. My team and I will bring you back after the evaluation. And I promise that before the winter transfer period, the club's transfer work will be completed and all the work will not be affected. How about it, Simon, are you satisfied with this arrangement?"

After hearing what Bielhoff said, Simon Grayson's eyes lit up. He is a professional in the football circle. Naturally, he knows that buying Leeds United with venture capital like Bielhoff is taking a lot of risks, but even so, the German is willing to provide him with £30 million as transfer funds during the winter transfer, which is really overjoyed.

"Yes, I'm very satisfied! Mr. Oliver, I will work hard to lead the team to achieve good results! Of course, you won't ask me to win the championship trophy, right?"

"Hahaha, of course not. That's not realistic for Leeds United now. Just like you said, the first six! Qualification for the Europa League next season! How about?"

"no problem!"

"Okay, Simon, I wish us a happy cooperation!"

“Happy cooperation!”

Simon Grayson and Bielhof raised their goblet together. After the two cups clinked together, it made a crisp "ding" sound, which indicates that the head coach of the "Young Guards" and the future chairman will start a new love at this time.

Ken Bates just smiled and watched all this. Eight years ago, he bought Leeds United for only 10 million pounds, but now he has sold 120 million pounds. Although he invested some money in the middle, the generous profit still satisfied the stingy old man.
Chapter completed!
