Chapter 101

Zara's hometown was a place called Fleent.Over the past few years, towns everywhere had been sprucing up to bring in tourists. Fleent had become a quaint and old cultural town. It was bustling with visitors from afar and was quite a charming spot.Zara's family home was tucked away in a narrow alley where cars could not go. She walked up to her home, which she had not seen in three years, with two bags in her hands.The front door stood open, which was normal for these houses during the day. It was safe enough.As she reached the door, Zara was not sure how to approach, what face to make, or what to say. Just then, someone stepped out, and she quickly hid behind the wall.Peering out, she saw it was her mom.Her mom was rinsing some herbs under the outdoor faucet. Zara recognized them as the ingredients used to make tea. Her mom would boil the herbs into a tea that was perfect with a drizzle of honey. Zara remembered how much she loved this herbal tea. Her mom used to make it

For five or six relentless minutes, Zara continued to give Sharon CPR until she saw a slight frown on her mother's face.Zara listened again. There was a heartbeat, and she was breathing! Overwhelmed with relief, she sobbed out the words, "Mom! Mom!"Sharon was still out cold, so Zara kept up the CPR until the wail of sirens filled the alley.Paramedics rushed Sharon onto a stretcher and into the ambulance. At the hospital, they wheeled her straight into the ER, leaving Zara and Trevor outside.Trevor's legs had buckled, and he had slumped to the floor. He looked pale and shaken.Keeping her cool, Zara walked over to Trevor. After a moment's hesitation, she helped him to a chair. She had bought two bottles of water from a vending machine and handed one to Trevor.He did not drink it and just clutched the bottle. However, he seemed to have settled a bit.Zara got straight to the point. "What's wrong with my mom? Does she have a heart problem?"Trevor squeezed his eyes shut and

Zara listened without a word. She felt a sharp ache in her heart. She took a tissue and gently dabbed away the tears from her mom's eyes.She could not say the words "It's okay" or "I don't blame you", but she did not feel as angry as before."Let's leave the past behind and not talk about it anymore. I'm not mad at you, and you don't have to worry about me. I've been doing alright these last few years. "And don't worry about the surgery costs, I have money. Once we find a good match, you can get the surgery."Sharon gave a weak smile. "As long as you're doing well, that's all that matters..."Zara merely replied, "I've been doing alright."She spent a long time with Sharon. She fed Sharon some oatmeal, and Sharon fell asleep late into the night. Only then did Zara leave the ward.Trevor was sitting on a chair by the ward's door. Upon seeing her come out, he stood up quickly. He looked a bit flustered.He really wanted to talk to Zara, but he did not know how to begin after ev

Chapter 104

Macy was wearing loose clothes, so her belly was not noticeable.When Macy saw Zara, she walked over without any hint of discomfort and asked, "Zara, what brings you here?"Zara replied with genuine concern, "Mrs. Parker, are you feeling alright? What brings you to the hospital?""I'm not the patient. I came to see a friend. I got lost on my way out and somehow ended up here," Mrs. Parker said with a warm smile.Zara added, "I'm here for a check-up."Macy let out a sigh, "You should really get a good examination. Your face is so pale. It's sad to see a young woman too busy with work to care for herself. And Yosef, he doesn't seem to know how to take care of someone. You've it hard.""It's not Mr. Webb's fault," Zara replied simply.Hospitals were not places for small talk, and since they both had things to do, they said their goodbyes quickly.Zara got her check-up results the next day and took them to the doctor.Looking over the papers, the doctor teased, "You're 25 with the

Zara needed to get to another hospital to see Sharon and did not want to waste more words on him. She turned to leave."My dad and Mrs. Parker like you. My dad even came to the company to talk to me about you," Yosef said with a sneer. "They want me to marry you into the Webb family. Too bad I'm not interested in secondhand goods."Zara blinked and then decided to just face him.She spun around to the car. "Which is why you'd better back off and stop making it hard for me to get a job, Mr. Webb. If I can't find work and can't make ends meet, I'll have to go to Chairman Webb and Mrs. Parker with a sob story."I might even tell them that my poor health is all your and Beatrice's fault. That'll make it way tougher for Beatrice to get into the Webb family."Yosef's face turned to ice in a heartbeat. There was a raging fire of anger burning in his dark eyes. "Zara, are you trying to get yourself killed?""Even a scared rabbit will bite if it has to. Mr. Webb, do not take things too

After five days in the hospital, Sharon was ready to head home.On discharge day, Zara borrowed a car from a friend to bring them all back to Fleent. They even had lunch back at home.Trevor cooked the meal, and Zara did the dishes afterward. It almost felt like old times, like they were a family again.Chatter came from the living room. Zara wiped her hands and went to take a look. Her elder sister and brother-in-law were there with their little girl. They were here to visit her grandmother.Zara had seen them at the hospital, but it had been years. Her sister was married now, with a different life and friends. It was only natural they had drifted apart.Zara really liked her baby niece, who was still tiny enough to be wrapped in a baby blanket. She held her close for a long time.When it was time for her sister and brother-in-law to head out, Zara was leaving too. She offered them a lift home.On their way out, Trevor came running with a small package for Zara. "Your mom wante

Ophite figured it out. "She's the youngest Schmidt daughter, isn't she? Yosef had her working as his secretary for a bit."Yosef, focused on his game, replied, "She's gone now."Just the thought of the Schmidt family annoyed him.Melanie would not quit, though. She kept searching for him, but Yosef did not have the time for her."Speaking of secretaries, I've been back a few days and haven't seen Yosef with Ms. Lowry. She used to follow him around like she was stuck to him."Wilder grabbed a pool stick, dusted it with powder, and lined up to play a round with Yosef.Ophite shook his head. "Ms. Lowry is no longer with us."Wilder stopped what he was doing. "She left?"Ophite said slowly, "Her contract was up, and she chose not to stay. What could Yosef do? He had to let her go. He has now secretly blacklisted her to get even."Wilder owed Yosef a lot, and he did not like to see him upset. He snorted. "She doesn't know what's good for her."Yosef angled his pool cue differently

Yosef ended the call abruptly.Zara put her phone down. She was coughing as she rummaged for her cough syrup. A capful eased the coughing a bit.Once she felt a little better, she booked her ticket, hopped on the high-speed train, and headed back to Starville.Stepping off at Starville Station, Zara's eyes accidentally caught a familiar silhouette. She focused and recognized it was Beatrice.They were not too far apart, and Beatrice saw her too.Zara was wearing a mask because she was coughing, but her eyes that were peeking out and her silhouette were enough for Beatrice to know it was her.Beatrice was with a woman who looked a bit like her. It was probably her mom.Beatrice's eyes were wide and sparkly, like a deer's. They seemed to be filled with some kind of emotion.Zara's phone rang out of the blue. She saw it was a number she did not know."Hello, who's this?" she asked as she picked up."This is First People's Hospital. Are you a family member of Sharon Winslett?"Z

Zara and Cecil headed home after their dinner.Zara was getting things ready for Sharon's hospital visit the next day. Cecil was on the couch, glued to her phone. Suddenly, she shouted, "Zara!"Zara looked up. "What is it?"Cecil was beaming. "I found you a job!"Zara blinked in surprise. "Really?"Cecil nodded, excited. "I was checking social media and saw my old boss post a job for a manager. You're perfect for it! I sent her your resume, and she thinks you're a great fit!"Zara recalled and said, "That's the place you left because of that mean coworker, right?"Cecil shrugged. "Sure, it's no Azure Cloud, but it's a pretty good company. Not many can match Azure Cloud anyway!"Her eyes lit up as she continued, "Everything's great except for that jerk of a colleague. If it weren't for her, I would've hated to quit my job. Plus, I'm still in touch with my boss. She's really nice!"Zara gave a half-smile. "You're making it sound pretty good."She had met Cecil's old boss once.

They had not even made it to the door when Clara blocked them again. "Why are you always in such a rush to leave?"Cecil was getting ticked off. "What's your deal, Clara?"Clara put on an innocent face. "What do you mean? I'm just helping you find a job.""Are you helping us find a job or trying to sell us off?" Cecil snapped back, feeling utterly betrayed.Drake strolled over with his wine. "Why say such nasty things? You're accusing the innocent here. No way, you need to apologize! Drink this wine, or you're not leaving today!"Their true intentions were out in the open now!Zara and Cecil locked eyes. They knew that drinking the wine wouldn't make a difference. They wouldn't be allowed to leave. They pushed Clara aside and made a break for it.They had to get out of this room now!Clara was sent crashing to the floor while Drake yelled, "Catch them!"When the two women flung the door open, two bodyguards were waiting right outside!Zara and Cecil were suddenly surrounded,
