The Disolate Scion Underestimated
He hadn't finished speaking when Zak, seated nearby, swiftly grabbed the chicken leg that had fallen on the table, stuffed it into Juelz's mouth, and flashed a mild smile. "You really know how to avoid wasting food. Even if something drops, you pick it up and eat it. That's an admirable quality, worth everyone's admiration." Those in proximity caught wind of the words and shifted their attention. Juelz, with a chicken leg in his mouth, momentarily became the center of attention. His mind buzzed, especially with the laughter around him that he couldn't ignore. Without much thought, Juelz recognized how absurd he must look with a sizable chicken leg in his mouth. Prepared to throw it at Zak, his eyes almost ablaze, Juelz retrieved the chicken leg from his mouth. "Do you dare to do this to me?" He wasn't worried that Zak might complain to their parents. This Zak was too audacious. Zak, unruffled, sat there, smiling gently and politely. "An amazing brother like you wouldn't waste foo
The Disolate Scion Juelz's fiancée
Zak and the Vanderoses stood at the gate to welcome the Lancastoria family. As the members of the Lancastoria family stepped out of the car, to Zak's surprise, he saw Daphne. She was adorned in a radiant yellow dress that complemented her beauty. The dress gracefully embraced her figure, and with every step, she exuded a captivating aura. His heart seemed to skip a beat, a sense of unease flooding over him. Locking eyes with Daphne, Zak sensed a lack of surprise in her gaze, as if she had already known about the attendees today. The revelation that Juelz's fiancée was none other than Daphne left him shocked and wounded. Among the representatives of Daphne's family were her mother, uncle, and aunt. The families proceeded to have dinner together. Zak ate in silence, stealing glances at Juelz and Daphne. They laughed, appearing close and affectionate. Daphne, in particular, smiled throughout the entire meal, seemingly delighted. Clutching his fork, Zak found the meal tasteless. Be
The Disolate Scion Framing
"Did Zak really do this?" Mrs. Samantha observed Juelz's injured hand with a heavy heart. Assisting him to his feet, she spoke in a somber tone, "Come on, let's head to the hospital first. We can deal with Zak after your wounds are taken care of.""I'm not going. The competition hasn't even started," Juelz gritted his teeth, reluctantly raising his injured hand, refusing the idea of going to the hospital. "I can't accept this, Mom. It's all Zak's fault. He ruined my chance to participate in the competition."With the competition already underway, Juelz listened to the host's words and looked at his hands with numerous abrasions, unable to hold back his tears.Without hesitation, he grabbed Mrs. Samantha and said, "Mom, I want Zak to pay for this. He's too arrogant."Indeed, Zak was too arrogant; bringing him back didn't mean allowing him to harm others.Mrs. Samantha comforted Juelz, suppressing her anger, and entered the backstage room. Originally intending to confront Zak, she found
The Disolate Scion Left
As Zak stepped in as the replacement participant, the trophy slipped through his grasp. Caught in an awkward situation, the host handed the trophy to the second-place contestant and dismissed Zak unceremoniously.Down below, the audience buzzed with discussions about the incident.Upon entering the room, Juelz quickly approached Zak, who skillfully evaded him, fear evident in his eyes. "I'm sorry. The situation was dire, and I had to say that. If I hadn't, those people would have said even more malicious things.""So, I'm supposed to be grateful for your defamatory remarks?" Juelz laughed in frustration, annoyed. "Do you really think I'm that foolish?""No." Zak hesitated. "The person who injured your hand is undoubtedly among the contestants. Even if I hadn't spoken up, that person knows. They would have said even worse things later. I had no choice but to say those words first.""You're clearly distorting the truth." Juelz forcefully pushed Zak away, breathing heavily, his mind in t
The Disolate Scion Shameless
This time, Juelz's response wasn't as heated. He stated, "I've lived in this house for nearly eighteen years, and our parents favor me. You've only been here for a month, and our parents really don't like you, Zak. What can you compare with my eighteen years in the orphanage? Do you even have the qualifications?" Disregarding Zak's response, Juelz arrogantly turned away and exited, leaving the room in silence. Zak got into the car after packing his luggage. "Now that your true identity has been exposed, you're not pretending anymore, right?" Juelz taunted. "No," Zak murmured, "I've always been like this, not pretending. It's just that you didn't know, brother." "Drive," Juelz ordered the driver, dismissing Zak's words. In contrast to his usual aggressive demeanor, Juelz now seemed noticeably calmer. The reason for this change remained unclear, possibly influenced by conversations with Mrs. Samantha and Mr. Benton. Zak looked out the window, supporting his cheek with his hand, w
The Disolate Scion Poorly
"You say he's shameless, that's why he dares to come to school."In these past few days, Juelz has blown the piano competition incident out of proportion, leading everyone to believe Zak deliberately plotted against Juelz, attributing cunning and malice to him.In some ways, Zak did scheme against Juelz because, if he hadn't, Juelz would have schemed against him in the end.Zak pulled out his textbook, and a sketchbook fell onto the table.A classmate picked it up, opened it, and remarked, "So this 'useless' guy can draw. Doesn't look impressive, though. You'll never match up to Juelz in your entire life. It might be better for you to stay home because, even if you try, tsk tsk..."Zak stood up, expressionless, and retrieved his sketchbook.Feeling his cold gaze, the guy was stunned and angrily said, "What's with that expression? I'm stating the facts; do you have an issue with it?""You can't compare to Juelz in any way, so you might as well not bother trying," Zak smirked, displayin
The Disolate Scion Infirmary
Apart from the hum of the car's engine, the only audible sound was the continuous chatter until the woman's voice interrupted, "When did you become so talkative?"Her emotionless remark immediately led Carlos to close his mouth, rendering him silent.It seemed that he had indeed been talking too much, for reasons unknown to him. He just couldn't seem to stop when faced with Zak. Perhaps it was because Zak spoke so sparingly that Carlos compensated by being more talkative.The car's interior returned to silence.Zak remained wordless, his gaze fixed ahead, undisturbed.Until an unmistakable gaze caught his attention, prompting him to pause and instinctively raise his eyes to the rearview mirror.However, she didn't turn her gaze in his direction, as if Zak's previous feeling was a mere illusion.After ten minutes, the car came to a stop, and Zak stepped out, saying, "Thank you."He hesitated for a moment and added, "Thank you, Ms. Gilliam, for giving me a ride back."The woman turned h
The Disolate Scion I'm afraid you can't afford it
"Zak, finally laid eyes on you. There's something different about you, and that school uniform suits you well. Unlike me, stuck in that rundown school." Zak pulled her aside with a stoic expression. "What brings you here?" "School's on break, and I missed you, so I decided to come." The girl looked up at Zak, her eyes shimmering. Ignoring her hopeful gaze, Zak retrieved his phone and dialed the orphanage superintendent. In a composed tone, he reported, "Miracle has run away." "I've told her repeatedly not to seek you out, but this child never listens." The orphanage superintendent sighed in resignation. "She always thinks you've become wealthy and wants to follow you. Hurry and convince her to come back." Zak handed the phone to Miracle. Miracle declined to answer, kicked nearby stones, and stated, "Back when we were in the orphanage, you weren't this indifferent to me. Just because you have money now doesn't mean you can ignore me, Zak. It's too heartless." The surroundings fel
