A man was lying unconscious on the side of the road, red stains were visible on his face and bruises were visible on parts of his body that were not covered by cloth.
The man regained consciousness after the raindrops hit his body. Zach sat down while enduring the cold air that was getting more and more bone-chilling. The expensive suit he was wearing went somewhere and now he only wore a shabby shirt with trousers.The Gray family's guards beat him until he was unconscious, then left him on the side of the road like trash."God help me to repay the injustice they gave me," said Zach as he lifted his face towards the sky, letting the raindrops wet his dry lips.Zach didn't have a cell phone or money and all he could do now was walk along the seemingly quiet street. Certainly no one would pass through this road because it was quite far from residential areas, but Zach couldn't possibly stop, letting himself die without having time to avenge his hurt.Not long after, the sound of a car horn started to be heard, making Zach stop his footsteps, turning towards the luxury black car which had now stopped right next to him.“You need a ride, sir?” a woman asked Zach after the car window opened.“Yes, can I come in?” asked Zach to the point. Zach spoke with trembling lips to resist the cold that was ready to freeze all the organs in his body."Sure," the woman answered briefly.After Zach got into the car, the foreign woman immediately gave him a blanket."Wear that so you don't freeze to death in my car," said the woman whose name Zach still doesn't know."Thank you," Zach answered politely.Zach could guess that if this woman couldn't just happen to pass by and help him sincerely, there must be another motive behind the help this woman gave him. But Zach didn't know what."Where do you want me to take you?" asked the woman while glancing at Zach."You just walk, I'll show you the way."Some time later."Miss, thank you for taking me to my destination," said Zach while looking at this beautiful, kind woman.“Nothing is free in this world, sir. And you can repay my kindness someday." After speaking, the woman drove her car away from Zach.Castarica is the woman's name, she was one of the guests at an event held by the Gray family. Coincidentally, he saw Zach walking in the pouring rain, because he felt sorry for him, he helped Zach."I thought so before," Zach thought to himself.This is where Zach is now, at the Dawson family house.Zach was standing in the middle of the room, his body shivering with cold. Not long after, footsteps were heard coming down the stairs of this big house and it was Hazel's parents."Why have you come here?" Keren asked sarcastically."I want to meet Hazel," answered Zach in a weak voice."Hazel is in her apartment," Keren answered. "You're adopted? Is the news circulating true?" Keren asked straight to the point, without caring about Zach's current condition."I also just found out about that fact today." Zach answered honestly."Break up your relationship with Keren! We don't want to be in a relationship with a man who has no social status in the eyes of society." Marvel speaks openly.Zach was silent, so shocked after hearing what Marvel had just said. Zach never thought that the two people who were always kind to him would actually have attitudes that were not much different from his adoptive family.The two people didn't even give Zach room to speak.Helplessly, Zach watched Keren's and Marvel's faces alternately. Then he turned around and walked out of this house, like a loser.Zach plans to ask his friend for help and coincidentally Oskar's house, his good friend, is not far from Dawson's residence, it only takes about 30 minutes to walk and Zach will arrive at Oskar's house.Currently, Zach was standing in front of the gate of his best friend's house. By chance, Zach saw Oskar's car about to leave the gate of this house. After the gate opened, Zach walked over to Oskar's car and knocked on the car window."Why did you come here Zach?" Oskar asked Zach in a voice that sounded unfriendly."Oscar, without me needing to tell you, you definitely know my situation now, can you help me," asked Zach with a pleading look."I will definitely help," Oskar replied casually."Thank you Oskar, I know you're a good friend," answered Zach with a sigh of relief.But the relief in Zach's heart began to disappear the next second when he saw Oskar open his wallet and take some money out of it."You take this money and leave my house immediately," said Oskar as he threw the mo
The hot sun was starting to burn his skin, but that didn't stop Zach from continuing to look for used items from trash cans, looking for anything he could sell. He didn't feel the sweat that continued to wet his body in order to get lots of used goods which he would later sell to make ends meet.None of Zach's friends want to help or deal with him. They all walked away when they found out Zach was only adopted.Zach has tried to apply for work at every company, but no one wants to accept him, all the companies say they no longer need additional people. Even though it is clearly written on the company gate that they need additional employees. Until finally Zach found out the reason why all the companies he visited didn't want to accept him to work, none other than because of pressure from the Gray family. His former adoptive family threatened to harass every company that accepted Zach to work.“Isn't that Zacharia, the former adopted son of the Gray family?” asked a beautiful woman to
"Where am I now?" Zach asked a middle-aged woman who he believed was a waiter."You are at the Aslan family residence. Mr. The waiter answered politely."The Aslan family," said Zach, repeating what the servant in front of him had said."Yes, sir," answered the servant politely."Can I meet Mr. Xander now," answered Zach as he sat up slowly and was helped by the servant.Some time later."You risked your life to save my daughter," Mr."I'm just trying to repay your daughter for giving me a lift the other day," Zach said honestly. "How is his condition now?" Zach asked back with a curious frown."The wound isn't that serious. Indirectly you gave him a second life," said Mr."I'm happy to hear that," said Zach with a sigh of relief."How is your condition now?" asked Mr. Xander as he took a cup of coffee."My condition is much better, as you can see," Zach answered politely.Zach's body is still full of wounds, but they will heal over time, but the wounds in Zach's heart will never less
This morning Zach had breakfast at the dining table with Aslan's family. No conversation came out of their mouths, everyone was busy finishing the food on their plates."Zach, before you marry my daughter, I ask you to help at Aslan's company starting today," said Mr."Dad, isn't it too fast." Without hesitation Castarica expressed her objection."Cast, you already know that Dad always makes decisions that he thinks are right, we just trust him," said Xena while stroking her daughter's hair with gentle movements."It's up to Mom and Dad." After speaking, Castarica immediately got up from the chair and left the dining table."I don't mind helping Mr. Xander," Zach said."You will work as a janitor! Don't ask why, you'll find out for yourself," said Mr. Xander with a straight face. "You need to observe the movements of everyone in the company," continued Mr."Yes sir." Zach thought that he would help Mr. Xander to take care of the Aslan family business, but the opposite happened. Mr. Xa
Zach ate on the side of the road, occasionally glancing at the vehicles passing by on the road. Zach ate his food with a happy heart, at least he didn't feel hungry like when he was a scavenger at that time."Hazel, you're lucky to know that he was only an adopted child before becoming his wife," said a beautiful woman from inside her luxury car.The car window was open so Zach could see who was in there. It was Hazel and also her friend."Of course I am very lucky because I avoided bad luck. Now that I am married to Alan, that is good karma for me," Hazel said from inside the car loudly so that Zach could hear her words.Zach ignored what the two women said, he continued to put a spoon full of food into his mouth until the food was finished."Let's get out of this place, why look at losers eating, it makes me sick!" Hazel said arrogantly."You're right, food sold on the roadside seems less hygienic. But if those who eat the food are losers then it won't be a problem, it's disgusting.
"Father, Cast agrees to the wedding which will be held soon, but Cast wants the groom to be kept secret and the wedding will only be attended by a few close relatives." Zach stopped walking after listening to Castarica's words with Mr."Are you embarrassed because you married an adopted child? No child wants to be born without the love of both parents, and Zachariah is no different," said Mr. Xander, trying to advise his daughter."It's not that problem, but Castarica just..." before Castarica had time to finish her words, Zach's voice slipped into the conversation between the two of them."I don't mind this," Zach said with an unreadable look in his eyes.***Zach and Castarica officially became husband and wife. As Castarica said before, only close relatives were present at the wedding.There was no wedding dress or expensive suit for the groom, Zach and Castarica wore modest clothes, for the two of them the most important thing was to legally be husband and wife."Zach, please look
"Mr Zach, at the front of this room there are Mr Alan Gray and Miss Hazel Gray, they want to meet you," said Sara, who is Mr Xander's assistant at the company.Mr. Xander assigned Sara to help Zach while he was at the office."Tell them that I don't have time, tell them to come another time," said Zach without taking his eyes off the files on the table."Yes sir." After speaking, Sara immediately left this room.An hour later.Someone suddenly opened the door to this room without knocking first, making Zach startled for a moment before finally turning his face flat again."I didn't expect Uncle Xander to trust you so easily, he even let you take care of this company the day after your wedding to Castarica." Lois spoke with a tight jaw, as if she couldn't accept it because the chair of the Aslan company belonged to Zach, while Lois and her father had been eyeing this position for a long time.Zach was silent, not wanting to respond to Lois' words which he thought were unimportant.“Why
After knocking on the door to his room, Zach entered the room. He saw that Cast was just sitting on the sofa, the beautiful woman was looking at the television screen which was showing her favorite cartoon film."Next time you get insulted by someone else, retaliate and don't shut up like a loser." After speaking, Cast immediately got up from the sofa and walked towards the door of this room."You care about me." Zach's words made Cast stop and look at him."Even if it were someone else in that position, I would say the same thing." After speaking, Cast walked out of this room.Mr. Xander's study."Zach, sit down, I've been waiting for your arrival for a long time," said Mr.Zack sat down as his father-in-law asked."What did Dad call me for?" Zach asked."This is a card with no limits, next time don't let anyone insult you. You are indeed hiding your new identity as the daughter-in-law of the Aslan family, but don't let anyone step on your pride." Xander spoke with his hand placing a
