ZARIA “Are you telling me that Rai's school did nothing?”Mama Li nodded. “We spoke to the teachers many times. We even went to Shu Yi’s parents. But that boy is vengeful and a real bully.”“What?” I snapped. “Why didn't you call me? I would have taken the first flight…”Mama Li raised her hands to stop me. “No, Zaria. We promised that we would take care of your boy and we were doing a good job—”“Until you weren't.” The words jabbed into my heart mercilessly. “Listen. Shu Yi waited until no adults were around and attacked Rai when he was coming home from school. We could not watch him every single second of the day.”I felt fresh tears coming. “I should have told my boy to beat him to stupor all because of his father…” I stopped myself mid-sentence. My eyes moved to Renzo who was standing a few steps away watching everything. No one said anything about what I almost said, but we all felt it hanging there. Uncle Thomas cleared his throat, and Mama Li looked everywhere but Renzo.Th

She wanted to go in with her son.Well, deep down, I respected that fire in her, but another part worried she was too exhausted.“Are you sure?” I asked, searching her eyes. “You’ve lost some color and your eyes are sunken in. Zaria, allow my team to handle it. Dr. Anthony i

The room was prepared with the tools I might need: bright lights, a metal table in the center, and various instruments laid out neatly on a side cart. Shu Yi sat tied to a chair in the middle of the room. He was fourteen years old, but his face already carried the arrogance of someone who thought money could protect him from everything.What was a fourteen-year-old doing with Zaria's baby boy? That boy was barely nine. I think? Damn it. I should have asked Anna for more details about the fucking boy.To my surprise, this Shu Yi boy looked up when I entered and smirked. “Now, who the hell are you?”I turned to the back, hoping he was talking to Hawk.
