Semua Bab SAVED BY MY BROTHERS : Bab 21 - Bab 30

Without thinking, Zara sprinted forward. The world blurred. The only thing she saw was the terrified child and the car rapidly closing in.She threw herself onto the road, tackling the boy and dragging him out of the car’s path. They rolled to the side, hitting the ground hard.The car screeched past.Pain exploded through her body. Her skin scraped against the rough asphalt, leaving her bruised and bleeding. The boy shook in her arms, scared but alive.Zara lay there, breathless, her heart pounding painfully against her ribsZara slowly lifted her head, ignoring the sharp sting shooting through her body.The boy looked about Lilly’s age—small, frightened, trembling.“Hey… are you okay?” she asked gently, her voice soft despite the pain.The child nodded weakly.“That’s good,” she breathed in relief. “Where were you going? Where are your parents?”“I… I got lost,” he whispered, tears streaming down his cheeks.“Okay, okay,” Zara soothed, forcing herself to smile. “Don’t cry. We’ll fin

Junior had begun coming to the orphanage with Lilly and the other children from school. Zara, having given up the search for a job, stayed behind at the orphanage, tending to the tiny children who hadn’t yet stepped into school, working alongside the other staff. She never complained. In fact, what warmed her heart most was seeing little Lilly’s laughter, bright and carefree, echoing through the halls with other kids .Adrian often came to the orphanage to pick up Junior, who sometimes didn’t want to leave because he loved playing with the other children. He and Lilly had quickly become fast friends. Using the excuse of picking up Junior every evening, Adrian found reasons to talk to Zara, and over time, they became close friends. He would sometimes bring little gifts for the kids, and both the children and the nuns adored him.One afternoon, Zara had accompanied Lilly and Junior to Adrian’s car. As he prepared to leave, Adrian turned to Zara and said, “I want to take you out for ice

Zara was restless throughout those two days. Her mind wouldn’t stop racing, constantly circling back to the company she was about to face. Would this place be any different, or would it turn out to be just as corrupt as the others? The thought lingered for a moment, but she quickly brushed it aside. Adrian had assured her this company wasn’t like the rest, and somehow… she chose to believe him.The day before the interview, Sister Evelyn called Zara to the house.“Zara, my child, I need you to run an errand for me,” she said gently. “Please take these documents for the new children to be registered. I hope you weren’t busy?”“No, Sister,” Zara replied softly.Sister Evelyn hesitated for a moment, then sighed. “By the way… I wanted to ask you something. Are you planning to ever love again?”Zara scoffed bitterly. “No. I don’t think I can ever get into a relationship again. I’m fine the way I am.” After everything she had gone through in Dante’s house, trusting a man with her heart aga

It was her first day at work. She dressed elegantly, every detail carefully chosen, as if confidence itself were stitched into her clothes. Ashford Holdings buzzed with life; corridors echoed with hurried footsteps, murmured conversations, and the steady hum of ambition. In the financial department, she was shown to her desk a neat corner of organized chaos, stacked files, and softly glowing monitors. Zara sank gently into the chair, exhaling a breath she hadn’t realized she was holding. The crisp scent of paper, the rhythmic clicking of keyboards, and the soft whir of computers wrapped around her like a promise of new beginnings.Everything around her every clicking keyboard, every shuffled file reminded her of when she had first joined Dante’s company. Back then, she had thrown herself into her work with relentless determination, her ambition unshakable. It was during a certain meeting that Dante had first noticed her, and from that moment, everything changed. Gifts arrived, small a

Zara and Adrian signed the contract, and a wave of pride surged through her. She had done it she had truly contributed to something important, and it felt amazing .Adrian turned to her, his expression softening. “I didn’t expect you to be this intelligent, Zara. I’m so proud of you.”A small smile tugged at her lips. “I just kept myself busy with research, that’s all,” she replied modestly, though a hint of satisfaction shone in her eyes.“This… this is going to change your career, I promise,” Adrian added, his voice full of certainty.Zara’s eyes lit up, the weight of accomplishment settling pleasantly on her shoulders. She was relieved no Dante in sight, no confrontation… or so she thought.Just as they were heading to the car, a slow, deliberate clap echoed behind them.“Wow!”Zara froze, her heart skipping a beat. She and Adrian turned and there he was: Dante, standing with that familiar, infuriatingly confident smirk.Oh God… I thought we weren’t going to meet, Zara thought, a s
