Semua Bab When Life Takes A Turn: Bab 401 - Bab 410

“The person who harmed Grandpa wasn’t a part of our family at all, but it was, in fact, Hayley King! It was your biological mother, Hayley, who did it!” Zidane uttered the words in a ghastly tone, assuming an expression of intense derision, hostility, anger. However, there was no denying the dread that continued to linger on the man’s face…A thud was heard. Zayn had punched Zidane in the face. He berated him in a fit of unparallel rage, “You’re b*llsh*tt*ng! How could my Mom ever possibly be the murderer! Zidane, do you take me for an apologetic fool? My mercy won’t stop me from tearing the Larsons into shreds!”Zayn was becoming slightly agitated. It was the first time he ever expressed such volatile emotions since he set foot here.He mulled over the possibility of the murderer being anyone from the Larson family, or even an outer threat that had slipped under their noses—never in a million years would he ever suspect his grandfather’s murderer to be his mother, Hayley! It was ut

He halted when he reached the door and said, “From now on, I want nothing to do with the Larsons, and all of you are forbidden from contacting me.” And with that, he walked out of the door and vanished.Everyone left in the hall exhaled a breath of relief about ten seconds after he left. Their tense bodies suddenly relaxed—they were all practically gasping for air. It was inevitable. Zayn’s presence carried a force so strong to them that it felt like a huge mountain pinned against their bodies. It was suffocating!A short while later, a senior member of the Larson family said, “So, does that mean Zayn’s let us off for real?”He used the word ‘let off’, which was a sign of him being subconsciously fearful of Zayn.“I suppose?”“Sigh. I really didn’t expect him to learn the truth—I really didn’t expect it at all.”“That’s right. The events that have taken place tonight have surpassed all of our expectations. Zayn is truly ruthless, and we’ve somehow managed to underestimate him

Faye and Zayn had been married for so long, yet she had never seen Zayn assume that awful expression before. No, she had never even seen anyone with such an expression before! If she could describe his expression in one word, it would be ‘devastated.’When she saw Zayn’s expression, she felt as if her heart had been stabbed with a needle ferociously. It hurt so much that she wanted to cry. Before she even realized, tears were flowing down her face. Her response was out of her control.She had no idea what had happened to Zayn, though she knew that Zayn was not a fragile man. Even when he was humiliated immensely in the past, he had never been as dispirited as he was now. In other words, Zayn must have experienced something so scarring that he had spiralled into complete and utter despair.As a result, she opened the door. She got out of the car and charged towards Zayn without the slightest shred of hesitation. “Madam!”Her secretary gasped aloud. It was raining so heavily that

“Yea. You’re right.” Faye nodded before adding, “Thanks.”Zayn smiled slightly and stepped out of the door without another word.It was just her, alone in the room, standing motionlessly for a long while. She sighed dejectedly. Why was she brooding now? She could not tell.Or rather, she did not have the courage to think it through.It took her two more minutes before she remembered just how many things she had wanted to ask Zayn—his real identity, why he seemed so lost and listless, why he looked like all of his hopes had abandoned him. However, when it was time to ask, she balked in confusion. In the end, nothing came out of it.The downpour outside saw no sign of abating. Zayn ditched his plans to leave and decided to stay the night at the hotel. It was a night where sleep evaded him until midnight rolled around. All he could think of was what happened throughout the day as he slowly phased from disbelieving shock to acceptance.There was one thing he knew for certain. Neither

Zayn thought for a moment before replying, “I did.”“What?”“Real estate agent.”“Whaaaa?!” Odd Bob turned his hands up in a hard, dismissive wave before leaping to his feet. “You won’t go far with that job! Business for that sector isn’t all that great right now. You know what, I think you should become an extra like me! Work a little elbow grease, and you could earn at least fifteen dollars to thirty dollars a day, so it’s not too bad at all. Besides, you’ve got the looks. If you’re lucky I bet it will take you just three to five years before you climb the ladder and secure yourself a starring role! Oh, by then, you’ll be hella famous!”Zayn froze. He was about to decline the offer, saying, “Wait, but—"Odd Bob had already sprung into action. “Ah, no buts! I’ve made a decision, and that’s final. For the record, Old Odd Bob’s pretty hot here. I can get you in with just a good word. Watch me!”Just like that, the man dashed away before Zayn even had the chance to say anything.U
