The Disolate Scion We're friends
Zak turned off the light and settled into bed, ready to embrace sleep. However, he soon found himself lost in memories of his childhood, memories that began within the walls of the orphanage where his past lay dormant.In one such memory, Zak recalled a scene at the orphanage where the director was distributing bread. Just as Zak reached for a piece, it was swiftly snatched away by a notorious troublemaker among the children, a senior known for grabbing belongings. He made it clear that complaining to the director was futile and would result in consequences.Rather than risking a futile confrontation, Zak resigned himself to a meager lunch of vegetable soup.The orphanage's limited meals and lack of snacks meant Zak often went hungry, with his food frequently taken by others.One day, seizing an opportunity when the main gate was open, Zak quietly slipped away unnoticed.Penniless and hesitant to return to the orphanage, Zak found himself sitting by the roadside, watching the passing
The Disolate Scion Audition
Ten minutes later, Gerald sauntered out of the audition hall and casually took a seat beside Zak, propping his chin up with an air of nonchalance as he fixed his gaze upon him. In a friendly tone, he began, "So, are you here to try out for a supporting male role? It's a competitive arena, you know. You'll need to bring your A-game. But tell me, are you truly serious about breaking into the entertainment industry, or is this just a casual pursuit?"Unfazed by Gerald's probing, Zak shifted slightly, directing her attention to her phone screen where her fingers moved deftly.Glancing over, Gerald noticed Zak engrossed in a game and let out a light chuckle. "Well, at least give us a little show. It's always advantageous to have someone in your corner, don't you think?"After successfully completing the level, Zak pocketed her phone and replied calmly, "What kind of performance do you think I should give?"Disregarding her question as if it hadn't been asked, Gerald changed the subject wit
The Disolate Scion It doesn't matter
The sudden buzz of his phone jolted him out of his thoughts. A message from Carlos flashed on the screen: "Hey, uni starts in just a month. Want to catch up? Last time was a bit rushed, missed out on a lot."Zak swiftly replied: "Nah, got a filming gig.""Why the sudden trip?""Movie shoot.""Okay, but how about we meet up in the next few days? I've got some things to ask."Zak hesitated for a moment before typing, "Questions about me and Camilla?"Carlos's reply came instantly: "How'd you guess?"Aside from that topic, Zak couldn't imagine what else Carlos would be so curious about.As Zak was about to end the conversation, another lengthy message appeared from Carlos: "Oh, and have you heard about Vanderose? Rumor has it they're in deep trouble, nearly bankrupt. Too bad we won't get to see Juelz's reaction. I bet it'd be priceless."Zak quickly skimmed through the message, his expression barely changing. He began typing a response, intending to wrap things up swiftly, but another me
The Disolate Scion He tried
"Unbelievable, I've been watching for an hour; these two are simply incredible.""The boss is really taking a beating, hahaha."The spectators erupted into applause and praise, briefly electrifying the atmosphere.The boss, in a flurry, rubbed his temples, handed the ring to the nearby employee, and pulled Zak and Camilla aside for a discussion."In this small-scale operation, I'll refund your money and throw in a tablet. But don't take anything else. How does a total of two thousand sound?""The total earnings from the rings are over $20, and you're only offering over $200?" Zak remarked, his expression stoic. "You've clearly thought this through.""Making a profit isn't easy for me either, especially with you two acting like this," the boss exclaimed, gritting his teeth. "I could stretch it to a maximum of $500. Is that acceptable? You've barely been here for a few minutes, and you're already making $500; isn't that enough?""We're not after money; we want merchandise," Camilla inte
The Disolate Scion Overestimate
The scene began with a confrontation involving Gerald Holder, scheduled to start at eight o'clock. However, Gerald's chronic tardiness persisted, and he didn't show up until half past eight. He attributed his delay to a sudden bout of low blood sugar, requiring a brief break.Draven wasted no time in rolling his eyes and making a sarcastic remark, "Who are you trying to fool? If this lateness continues, how do you expect us to continue filming?"Gerald's gaze settled on him, accompanied by a subdued smile. "I sincerely apologize. I'm puzzled as to why my blood sugar suddenly dropped. I'll make up for any lost time."The director kept it brief, gesturing with a wave. "Enough talk. Get ready; we start filming in five minutes."Meanwhile, Zak had already dressed, while Gerald took his time, spending half an hour in the dressing room before coming out.This scene marked Zak and Gerald's first meeting. Despite their mutual dislike, they maintained decorum in the presence of the protagonist
The Disolate Scion Hearing Juelz's name
Carlos, quick to grasp the situation, nodded in agreement. "Indeed, this is the best course of action. While I was merely observing earlier, there were murmurs about Gerald's private temperament being rather irritable. His current pleasant demeanor is merely a façade. Unpleasant situations always seem to trigger his anger."Meanwhile, Gerald seethed with barely contained rage.Noticing his foul mood, the assistant, who had been tirelessly fanning nearby, offered him a fruit tray. "Please, don't look so stern. It wouldn't be ideal if someone were to capture you looking like this in a photograph."The mere thought of being photographed further fueled Gerald's anger. After discreetly scanning his surroundings to ensure no one was watching, he picked up a slice of watermelon. After a brief bite, he ordered cold beverages for everyone in a chilly tone, citing the sweltering heat."Of course," the assistant agreed, hurrying off to arrange the drinks.Ten minutes later, as the assistant dist
The Disolate Scion Damage your reputation
Carlos was surprised when he came across the trending topic: "Wow! This actor really knows how to grab attention. He said he'd faint, and even the director seemed to be taken aback."As he scrolled through the comments, one in particular stood out: "His health wasn't great to begin with. He pushed himself through the shoot, had a heated argument with a crew member, and then collapsed right after filming. I feel sorry for him."Handing the phone to Zak, Carlos remarked, "I'm familiar with everyone on the crew. This account is definitely linked to Gerald. No wonder he fainted. They're trying to damage your reputation, which is completely unnecessary."Zak agreed, seeing Gerald's actions as pointless and unfounded. He felt it was a waste of time for Gerald to go to such extremes to smear someone like him, who wasn't even well-known yet.Not particularly interested in the comments, Zak glanced briefly before suggesting, "Let's go grab dinner." Carlos's eyes lit up with excitement as he qu
The Disolate Scion Connections
Gerald furrowed his brow, focusing on Zak's phone with a hint of uncertainty in his tone. "So, you're recording? I suppose our conversation won't flow as smoothly."Zak chuckled softly and casually showed his phone, but the expected recording remained inactive. Undeterred, Zak promptly turned off his device. "I need to review the script. You've got five minutes."With no recording in sight, Gerald visibly relaxed, dropping his usual façade. Seated across from Zak, he casually crossed his legs, getting straight to the point. "Are you romantically involved with Camilla?"Zak took a tissue from his pocket, tidied the table with precision, and leaned against his hand, offering a nonchalant response. "Why does our relationship concern you? In what capacity do you ask? Let me guess. If I confirm my association with Camilla, would you stir up another online frenzy? And if I deny it, would you suggest I distance myself from her, claiming I'm unworthy?"Gerald posed the question, his penetrati

Happy ending
"Earlier, it was my mistake that caused our separation. At that time, Zakky had his own life, and I had no right to interfere. But now, that won't happen again. I'll love him well."After the interview, Daphne returned home and was immediately questioned by Zak about her comments, particularly her revelation that she had liked Zak first in high school.Zak had always believed he was the first to develop feelings, thinking that Daphne's affection for him only grew after Zak's confession."When did you start liking me?" Zak asked."It's been very, very early," Daphne replied.Daphne then began to recount to Zak her internal journey of falling in love back then.Daphne first noticed Zak during their freshman year of high school. Zak was tall and stood behind her during the drills.Her initial impression of Zak was one of striking beauty and a cold voice, resembling an aloof runway model. He had a reserved temperament and seemed untouchab
Deep
Zak flinched, tilted his head to his right, and was surprised to see the familiar side of his face.To make her happy, to make her like...But this time Zak didn't proceed with the deep kiss, he just raised his hand to rub the back of Daphne's head and looked at her with downcast eyes.Just please please Zak.When a suitor asked her if she was single, she would always politely and gently say that she was still single, but that she already had an owner.She looked lost in thought, completely caught up in the memories of that year.They pulled up to a black sedan and the short-haired woman unlocked the door and Daphne got in the passenger side."I've watched it over and over again, and I envy her so much for being there for Zakky during such a wonderful time for you ...." Zak snapped back to Daphne's voice right beside her, very, very close."Daphne, look to your left."What's the point of accepting and opening a gift, and
Hurt
Daphne was pleasantly surprised and picked the cat up, quite inexplicably feeling much more grounded.She missed him too, so much.Daphne, of course, was pleasantly surprised and sweetly surprised, and became much more comfortable with cooking.The love she was unconsciously radiating at the moment could have filled her heart or even overflowed into the air around her.Separated from each other, Zak stayed by himself for a few days, and one after another, he started to take up some shoots again, not for any other reason than he was used to staying with Daphne, and he would feel lonely, missed, and out of place when he was alone.She had long ago transferred back all of the assets that Daphne had transferred to her, and had also long ago told her who she was shortly after her awakening, telling her that she was the founder of a clothing company."Zakky if you miss me feel free to call me anytime, send me a message, I'll get back to you no mat
Misunderstanding
She wondered just how she'd gotten along with Zak before.Zak was sitting not far away, and the doctor stood in front of her, information in hand, talking to her.She also enjoyed Zak's touch and craved Zak's intimacy just as much.It's a new cell phone with no software installed and only one contact in Snapchat, Zak.Daphne was happy to have herself played with by her and chirped, "I slept so deeply, did you guys talk for a long time and I didn't hear you." "That's okay." Zak lowered his head, "You're still weak."She didn't know what to do anymore.All of this was taken in by Zak without reservation.So she started thinking again, when can she be discharged from the hospital? After being discharged from the hospital, was she following Zak as well, and would Zak...be willing to get back together with her?"Zakky, uh...""... Hmm."Zak's eyes went deep and dark as his body propped up above him slowly moved down to
The only way
Because she stays indoors for a long, long time, Daphne's skin is so pale and white that the slightest hint of red can be very noticeable on her.The first time she saw it, she felt like it belonged to her, and now that feeling was growing stronger.Aliza showed confusion, "What's not?"That's good for Daphne. Those memories are terrible."She's been with me since a while ago, and for the last little while, I thought I'd come to you on my own." Zak raised an eyebrow slightly, "Come to me for what?"Would love, love, love, love... To talk to Daphne about much, much more.Obviously as the patient's ex-girlfriend, but one person to bear all the costs, but also asked all the facilities and equipment with the best, but also in order to facilitate the care, in a foreign country to buy a house to settle, almost every week to come to see the five times, each time with a bouquet of roses, how romantic and affectionate.Aliza shrugged innocentl
That's him
Aliza glanced at Zak and didn't dare to look at her much, still afraid that she might be angry.Certainly there was not the slightest desire to blame her."The withered heart comes back to life."Silence for a long time, Aliza stood up, "Harm, forget it, a lot of things beside people say is useless, she is wrong is wrong, bring the harm and mustache is not someone else a sentence or two can be put down, or you have to solve it by yourselves, their own feelings, their own over that hurdle."Why doesn't she say anything...Maybe she could only feel at ease when she was a little closer to Daphne, she knew she was the only one Daphne had left, and she was really afraid, if she went far away, and something happened to Daphne, she wouldn't be able to find her, and she couldn't be in front of her right away.Zak's eyes grew complex again, a bit helpless at the question.And not as it is now.Zak clutched the ring in his hand and kept
She's scared
The doctor pulled out Daphne's cell phone, "See for yourself."Zak won't love a psychopath. Zak won't.She'd gone from out-of-control crazy to quiet crazy, which probably wasn't good, but there was nothing that could be done about it now, nothing anyone could do about it, not the doctors, not herself.Checking several of Utah's airports, Daphne has no record of boarding a plane, but with so much time having passed since she disappeared, Zak guesses that she was most likely picked up by someone and left on a private jet that didn't have direct flights to Iceland and required a layover, taking even more time, and the situation is ten thousand times more urgent.She had to attend to her grandpa's funeral, the doctor said that grandma might not have much time left, so the family could spend more time with her at the end... She also needs to deal with his affairs, contacting lawyers, hiring someone to investigate him to collect evidence of his crimes, etc. etc
Is she mentally ill?
Zak accompanies Daphne to the hospital, still panicking when she encounters strangers, but Daphne is so good that she stops when she's spoken to and obediently undergoes the tests.The nurse keeps explaining to her, she can't listen to anything, she's been through this situation more than once a long time ago, Zakky suddenly walks off to record a variety show with someone else, Zakky suddenly walks off and leaves her alone.Not enough, Zak red eyes, casually picked up a vase, raised up to smash at him, scared Qu Ziqiang woefully begging for mercy, the police officer beside him in time to stop, Zak's emotions can not be stabilized, clenched his teeth and low reprimand: "You deserve to die! You deserve to die!"Stealing a kiss on Zak's cheek, he held Zak's hand tightly.The man who had been sitting on the bed made an effort of his own to get back into his wheelchair, blocking the doorway to the hospital room with a series of chairs, stools, and other pieces
She's crazy
"I know you had someone on your mind at the time and didn't interrupt, and now that you say your nagging problem has been solved, I wondered if we might not have a chance to try it out?""It's mine... It's mine, no one can take it away..."With that, the man opened the file bag and took out a few sheets of paper from it and put them in front of Daphne.Daphne leaned against her shoulder like a skinny puppet, her dry lips parting as her eyes looked up at her, and mumbled, "Zak, I missed you so much..."Being nice, talking nicely, squeezing a smile out of her, what day of the week didn't he do that? Either she was beaten by her when she was mad, or she didn't even give him a proper look when she was good.It's fierce, fierce, and she does everything she can to protect the ring.She quickly calmed down again, just a momentary burst of emotion.Stiffening her body, Zak's mind was in turmoil, and the moment the tips of her noses touched, Z
