"I understand," Althen replied in a cold tone. Then, he immediately ended the call.
Zayn had been waiting for twenty minutes.
Seeing that the Hudson Family had not brought anyone in for a long time, Gibran began to get angry. "Mr Hayes, they don't appreciate you."
Zayn said calmly, "Just be patient; they will come."
While waiting, Zayn took Gibran on a double tour of the lower floors. Then, he realised that this building was located west of the compound.
"The Lavise complex is an upscale complex with good greenery. But there's not a hint of greenery in the Hudson Family building, just a few traces of burnt trees," Zayn mused.
The two returned to their original places. After waiting about a dozen minutes, a young man came downstairs.
There was a cigarette in the young man's mouth. Judging from his features, he was young but looked very worn.
His hair was yellow, a headset strap hung from his ear, and a ring was attached to his n
Althen dared to want this money because he felt that Teresa was easily oppressed and thought that Teresa should be respectful to him.Gibran, who heard their words, was very upset. He didn't expect this family to be so ignorant.Zayn said calmly, "Grandpa, what you're saying makes a lot of sense. Unfortunately, my residence, located in the old district of Racoon City, still hasn't been torn down. In addition, my mother was hospitalised in a car accident, so my family's savings have been wiped out."Althen frowned as he exclaimed, "Zayn, you can't lie to me.""My house hasn't been torn down yet, and our house in Racoon City is still old." Zayn suddenly changed the subject. "But, I recently made some money from doing business; I plan to build a villa in Libiran."Althen quirked her lips."Making some money? Building a villa? Do you run a funeral business in Libiran? How unlucky."Garvi and the rest of the Hudson Family also laughed mock
This red Ganoderma is the same one Zayn bought on the Libiran black market.When the ganoderma was used to treat Elder Vishnu, Zayn still had two ganoderma left.Thinking that they were related, Zayn prepared this gift.The Great Mistress of the Hudson Family sat up straight while receiving her red ganoderma. She smelled the ganoderma for a while, and then she immediately threw the red ganoderma on the floor and said, "What is this? This ganoderma has a bad smell. Zayn, you don't take wild ganoderma from the mountain and make it a treasure, do you? Aren't you afraid that it will poison us?"Zayn took the gift box, sighed, and said, "This is not wild Ganoderma, but a treasure I found.""This thing is called red ganoderma. This ganoderma was a rare item in the royal treasure storehouse in ancient times. Although it is poisonous, as long as it is used properly, it can prolong life and strengthen the physique of ordinary people.""If you take this ganoderma to an auction, it can go for mi
Upon hearing Gibran's words, Arvin and Abel burst out laughing. They didn't believe what Gibran was saying at all.Gibran was so annoyed that the green veins on his forehead appeared; he couldn't wait to hit them directly. However, they were Zayn's relatives so he couldn't fight with them.Zayn signalled to Gibran to hold his temper. Gibran was forced to hold back.The Hudson family deliberately prepared a large table that could accommodate dozens of people for the birthday banquet.Everyone took their seats. Zayn and Gibran sat together, but their seats were arranged near the door.Soon, the birthday cake is served, and the birthday banquet officially begins.Althen's eyes immediately lit up when he realised Zayn had brought Moutai wine, and he quickly opened the bottle of wine.Next, the smooth and strong aroma of the wine wafted out.The surprised Arvin asked, "Grandpa, what did you open this fake wine for?Althen gla
Althen's body trembled; she almost fell to the floor.Althen quickly forgot the wine and green tea Zayn had given him earlier. He kicked the table vigorously and scolded, "I see you have a brain problem. You became greedy after coming to the Hudson Family.""I don't even have enough house to give to my grandson; how can I give it to you?""Besides, your mother was a child adopted by the Hudson Family. What qualifications do you have to ask for a home?"The Big Lady, who used a cane to hold herself up, was also furious with Zayn's wild ambitions.Zayn said flatly, "From what I heard, didn't my mum also get a share when the house was demolished? Besides, I'm just asking for a house that's rightfully mine. Is that too much?"Althen became even angrier and said, "Outrageous. I adopted your mother. If it weren't for me, she'd be dead on the streets. She's an ignorant person.""When I asked her to marry Mr Jodi in the city, she ran away at
"Mr Hayes, this is an emergency. We can't keep compromising on this anymore. Everything is your responsibility. Now the T-serum project is officially declared a failure even before the release time," said a man with a very upset facial expression. The man was part of a consortium group in Racoon City that was the main investor funding every flagship project in the market. The Consortium Men had spent millions to fund Zayn Hayes's T-Serum project and his start-up company. "You can't give up like this. I'm sure the product the company will come out with will be different from what we will come out with. We have all agreed that the T-Serum project will be introduced to the public in the next 1 to 2 months," Zayn said, trying to save his company from bankruptcy. "Are you sure about that, Mr Hayes? Our team has investigated, and the product announced yesterday en masse is similar to the one your team developed. I don't know how, but it's clear that your formula and data have been leaked
The word divorce was like a thunderbolt in Zayn's ears. The man never thought that a moment like this would come. Zayn was just about to reach the source of success in life. He was about to open a recognised Startup company, have a beautiful wife, and a perfect married life. Zayn could have been about to make a big splash, but all those dreams were dashed before his eyes."Divorce? Huh, did I hear that wrong?" Zayn said with a pale face."Right, of course, dear. I've already signed our divorce papers myself. I don't think there's any point in maintaining a husband and wife relationship without a foundation of love," Bianca said so easily.Zayn seemed to have lost his zest for life. He couldn't believe his wife, whom he knew to be innocent, could go that low with him."Don't say things you'll regret.""I'm sure it's all because of that man. Let me beat him up again."Zayn, who was getting angry again, immediately wanted to hit Benjamin once more; the man swiftly moved his position and
The sentence of arrest uttered by the police left Zayn speechless. The man's condition had just improved due to a traffic accident. Zayn was fortunately grateful that there were no fatalities in the incident.But the man did not understand the police's decision to arrest him. Zayn was also a victim in the accident."Sorry, sir. But you can see my condition yourself. I'm also a victim right now," Zayn said, trying to defend himself.The two policemen just looked at Zayn with a flat stare."Mr Hayes, please don't complicate things for us because we're just doing our job. I've asked the medical staff that your condition is now quite good. So we will take you to the police station right now," the man said firmly.Zayn had no choice but to obey the two officers. They had mentioned that things would be difficult for him if Zayn said more and acted rebelliously."Alright, I'll be cooperative with you guys," responded Zayn, who stood up to leave the ambulance.Zayn looked like a criminal at t
Time seemed to pass slowly; every second was like punishment and humiliation for him, but now it was time for Zayn's trial. The man couldn't sleep all night because he had to lie on the cold floor with only a thin sheet.The police are now removing Zayn and taking him to the court, where his trial occurs. Zayn looks completely limp and disorientated. No one seems to be coming to his aid.The man doesn't have a lawyer to represent him properly in court. Since Zayn had no legal representation, the court provided Zayn with an unreliable volunteer lawyer, as most were not yet competent interns.Moreover, volunteer lawyers who help oversee cases like this are not paid by their clients, so many of them seem reluctant to defend their clients, especially when they have to compete with a team of public prosecutors who are experienced in their field.Zayn had heard his defence lawyer's advice, who advised him to admit his guilt and beg for mercy from the court and the prosecution service. If Za
