The door opened. The people who came in were Aino, who was in tears, and Sebastian, who had a on solemn expression. Aino pushed open the door and ran towards Zayn. She jumped into Zayn’s arms in an instant. “Uncle Zayn, I’m sorry…”Zayn was speechless. At that moment, Sebastian walked up to Zayn. “I already know.”“What did you know?” Zayn asked.“This afternoon, Tessa came to the company and handed in her resignation. She resigned in a hurry, and she did not even want this month’s salary. She just left. Kingston stopped her and asked why, was it related to you, and did you dump her? In the end, she sneered. ‘Even if a mountain full of gold and silver was placed in front of me, I also could not live my life like a grass widow without consummation!’”Seeing Zayn’s uneasy expression, Sebastian softened his tone. “What did the doctor say to you? Did he say it’s not curable for life?”When he saw Sebastian, Aino, and Sabrina were all looking at him at once with a guilty and caring exp
Zayn was also going to give one portion to his sister. However, he felt like something was wrong. What if his sister has several children in the future? What if Sabrina gave birth to more children after that? Well, he could not divide it like that. While Zayn was thinking back and forth on the matter of how to distribute his property, he fell asleep. He slept very soundly that night.The following day, he woke up at daybreak. He became more spirited than the day before. He got out of bed, brushed his teeth, washed his face, and rushed to the hospital after eating his breakfast in a hurry.When he got to the hospital, Zayn saw that the bed was empty and was quite shocked. He immediately called the nurse over and asked where the patient was in the bed. The nurse was also stunned at that time.Where was the patient? Why was the patient was gone?At that moment, Zayn saw Cecilia walking in with her face covered in tears.“Madam Cecilia, where is Miss Sharpe? The doctor hasn’t released
Tessa's hand was sore from slapping Hana. She shook her hand several times in annoyance. She raised her eyebrows and looked at Hana fiercely as if Hana was not her mother but just another woman who did all kinds of evil things.Tessa did not shy away from cursing in front of so many people. “Hana Sharpe! You shameless woman! How shameless you must be? Slapping your face is already going easy on you! I slap your face to let you know you are a shameless thing! Hana Sharpe, you have to remember this! You are not my mother. You’re never going to be my mother! Not for the rest of your life! Also, you want me to return the money to that castrated man? Yet, you said that you’re not thinking of that castrated man? If you’re not thinking of him, then why do you want me to return the money to him? Even the castrated man himself did not ask me to return the money to him, but you came running over to order me to pay him back?Tessa spat. “Hana Sharpe, who are you to him? Who are you to me? Who a
Hana blushed instantly. “I’m sorry, Mister Smith. I want my daughter to return the money to you. It’s very embarrassing to be taking so many things of yours when both of you have already broken up, but now…” She smiled bitterly, then with an extremely gentle tone, she uttered the following three words, “I am sorry.” After saying that, she turned around and walked off.“Where are you going?” asked Zayn.Tessa was stunned. Hector, who was looking on in the crowd, was also stunned. The crowd onlookers at the scene were also stunned. They only heard Hana say, “I will never ever come here again. I will never try to have Tessa acknowledge me as her mother again. From now on, I will never care about Tessa Caven anymore. In the future, I will never come to look for Tessa again even if my body gets taken away by dogs when I am dead.”Hana was truly heartbroken. Her daughter was already twenty-two years old. Never mind that she did not understand her mother, but she had actually continuously
Not only was Hana stunned after hearing Zayn say that, but even the crowd of onlookers, Tessa, Hector were all stunned at that same time.Tessa was the first to regain her senses. “Zayn Smith! What did you say? You want to marry her? This b*tch! You can’t marry her! You can’t!” She looked at Zayn with incomparable resentment.Zayn turned his head back and looked at Tessa. “Miss Caven, I think you don’t have any right to give orders to anybody! You don’t have the right to take your hand and point at your mother like this! Also, as her daughter, you shouldn’t have the right to intervene with whatever your mother wants to do, right?”Tessa was speechless. Zayn’s outright condemnation left Tessa at a loss for words. Zayn did not have to reprimand Tessa. He had just resolutely made the decision in a split second that he wanted to marry Hana. It was as if he saw that two miserable hearts would be connected together. He just wanted them to hold each other and keep each other warm.Once ag
It was just wishful thinking on Hana’s part. She had always felt that she still had a daughter, so for all the difficulties and work that she had to go through, she would have her daughter to back her up. However, what happened in the end? Her twenty-two years old daughter had slapped her twice, and those slaps had severed all of the familial relationships between a mother and a daughter. Hana no longer had a daughter.Hana needed something for her to lean on. A place where she could lean against and rest. It so happened that Zayn also needed a place for him to nurse his wounds. Hana was extremely happy with the fact that the two people, who were hurt and incomplete, could end up together.“Zayn, don’t you think I’m too old? I am already forty years old.”“You’re very beautiful.”“But I…”“I know. I am infertile, but we can adopt a child. No! We can adopt about five children. With my financial abilities, we can afford to raise them. After we adopt the children, you can just stay a
Hector was caught off guard slightly. “What did you-you say?”“May I ask if you and Hana are married?” asked Zayn.Hector was speechless.“When you got together with her back then, she was still a minor right? When she was pregnant, she was still three months shy from being eighteen, right? Being seventeen and a half years old, how could she get a marriage certificate with you? Later on, when she had already fulfilled the requirement of being twenty-two years old, did you get a marriage certificate with her?”Hector was speechless. He did not expect that Zayn would have such a clear understanding of the situation. He stammered, “How did you…know? You’re…you’re investigating me?”Zayn sneered. He did not look at Hector, but he just looked at Tessa. “Tessa, I did not have any other purpose for investigating your mother. I was only doing it to let you and your mother reconcile. I originally wanted to mediate the relationship between you and your mother, but it seems there is no need
“Who could tell who is right and who is wrong?”“I don’t know, but I feel that Mister Caven is quite a good person. In the ten years he opened a store here, he had always been kind and polite.”“That’s right. Especially that daughter of his. She is sensible, good, and she did well in college. I felt it’s her mother who was in the wrong.”“That mother of hers truly is a ridiculous person.”“She actually snatched her daughter’s boyfriend in front of her daughter’s house.”“There truly is nothing too strange in this big world.”“There are all sorts of shameless women.”A crowd of onlookers in front of Tessa’s house had varying opinions. Hector and Tessa also gained quite a few of their pity. Hector even burst out bawling. “Tessa, my good daughter, how can your life be so miserable to have such a mother? It’s alright. Don’t be upset, my child. Your mother has abandoned you, but you still have your dad, isn’t it?”“Dad… We should ignore that d*mned woman from now on. I will certainl
