Back then, the most ruthless method Sylvie used against Genevieve was to have someone spread rumors about her and Jan

the high life. However, everyone used her and wanted to ruin her.
Even her manager–Joyce–who had been with her for a long time, conspired with Johanna to set her up
for the sake of money.
Past events flashed across Sylvie‘s mind, one after another.
Her tcars flowed even swifter, and she questioned Zayne, “Why must I allow them to pick on me? Was
it wrong of me to fight back? I‘ve got no parents or a brother whom I can rely on, but I‘m human, too. I
will also feel aggrieved and livid.”
Zayne had more or less read some of her past from the internet, but he didn‘t dare ascertain whether
she was speaking the whole truth.
Nonetheless, her shaking shoulders and aggrieved expression as she sobbed then were exceedingly
pitiful.
After Sylvie had finished crying, she wiped her tears with the back of her hands. In a hoarse voice, she

the hotel. You may go back now.”
Zayne‘s lips twitched, but he said nothing in the end.
When Zayne stepped out of the suite, he spotted Faith leaning against the wall. He had no idea how
long she had been standing there, but she immediately straightened upon seeing him.
“What are you doing here?”
“I wanted to see whether your cousin needed anything. The hotel‘s restaurant offers supper. Is your
cousin hungry?” Faith had her hands behind her back, and she sounded slightly nervous.
At the thought that Sylvie had been kneeling in the rain for several hours and had no time to cat, Zayne
replied, “Pirase have the restaurant prepare some food for her.”
“Sure!” Faith took out her phone and texted the restaurant manager.
Entering the elevator Zayne pressed the button for the ground floor. Then, he took out his phone. “I‘ll
transfer the cost of the room and food io you.”
“It‘s okay–Belore Faith had even finished speaking, she received the money.
Her gaze dumned, and she slumped back against the elevator wall.
All of a sudden, the elevator plunged into silence.
Gazing at the man‘s profile, Faith abruptly started, “I‘ve liked you for a long time. Zavne Everyone
knows it. Did you not sense it?”
For a moment, Zayne didn‘t know what he should say to that
If Faith were an orcimary girl, he would probably have turned her down right away. Alas, her father was
his lecturer and also his uncle‘s friend.
That aside, his grandfather even cautioned him a few hours ago at the Zeigler residence to have care
and not humiliate her.
The elevator arrived on the ground floor. The elevator doors opened, but neither of them moved.
Watching as the elevator doors closcd again. Zayne stated solemnly. “I know, but I don‘t have any
plans to date at the moment. I want to enter the judicial field and contribute to the Zeigler family in the
future.”
“That doesn‘t conflict with us dating. I won‘t interfere with that,” Faith maintained.
“But I won‘t be able to take good care of you. If I‘m too busy with my studies and sadden or neglect
you, I‘d rather that you don‘t waste time on me,” Zayne refuted in a low voice.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFaith was no fool. Discerning the rejection in his words, she suddenly felt devastated.
She stared at her shoes, her voice carrying a hint of ridicule and grievance. “It‘s the first time I ever had
a crush on someone for so many years, but I got rejected in a heartbeat after confessing my love.”
Her family was no match for the Zeigler family, but it wasn‘t all that far beneath the latter. As such, she
was undoubtedly worthy of him.
Regretfully, he didn‘t want her.
Faith lifted her hands and rubbed her eyes, lest she embarrassed herself by crying. “Forget that I ever
said anything earlier. We‘re still friends henceforth. yes? I don‘t want you to feel so awkward that you
dare not come to my house to look for my father in the future.”
Zayne breathed a sigh of relief at her consideration toward him. At the same time, he also felt unworthy
of her feelings for him.
After bidding her farewell, he left the hotel.
No sooner had he gotten into the car than he received a call from the deliveryman who was to send the
medicine to Sylvic. “Mr. Zeigler, I rang the doorbell for a long time, but no one opened the door. Did you
make a mistake about the room number?”
