Chapter 1657
Punished by His Love
chapter 1657
However, Hector just could not do it.
Hector begged, pestered, and was also unreasonable in front of Zaynâs father. In the end,
Zaynâs father indeed had given Hector a million dollars for the sake of him sparing his
familyâs life. Not only that, but Zaynâs father also had aggressively eradicated that leaderâs
base overnight with lightning speed. This way, Hector no longer had any worries.
Later on, Zaynâs father heard from that leader of the debt collectors that it was Zayneâs
uncle and family who wanted to kill them. Hector, on the other hand, was only a pawn
being used. Zaynâs father then warned Hector to stop gambling in the future! He has to turn
over a new leaf. Sure enough, Hector had never gambled ever since then. However,
considering that Hector was not someone with good manners, the Smith family also did not
have any more contact with Hector.
Almost six years had passed in a blink of an eye. When Zayn met Hector again, Hector
already looked quite decent. Zayn had once gone over to a classmateâs house to play. His
classmateâs family was not very wealthy, and they also were staying in an average
community. After Zayn had entered the community, he unexpectedly met Hector, the man
who had given him several years of nightmare.
At that moment, Hector could no longer recognize Zayn. After all, they had only met once
before, and Zayn was just five years old at that time. After almost six years, Zayn had
already grown up to be a young man, and he was almost 170 meters tall, so it was only
natural that Hector did not recognize Zayn.
However, Zayn could recognize Hector in an instant, the man who had almost killed Zaynâs
whole family. Hector did not change much, but he looked much more decent compared to
the past. The child that Hector was carrying in his arms seemed to be more than one year
old, but the gender of the child could not be distinguished. Hector was carrying the child
and was sitting on the swing, and the child giggled happily.
Zayn was stunned by what he saw. The gambling addict who was originally fierce- looking
also had such a warm fatherly side. However, that good impression also only lasted for
about five minutes. Later on, a woman approached Hector. Her back was facing Zayn, so
he could not see her face, but he could hear that womanâs voice. The woman said to
Hector with a pleading tone, âHector, I am having a fever. Could you give me a hundred
dollars for me to go get an IV treatment?â
âWhat IV treatment? Do you think our money grew on trees? You donât even know how to
get by in life. Arenât these common ailments for people to have fever and heartache? You,
on the other hand, are so delicate, and you even wanted an IV treatment. The child is still
breastfeeding. If youâve gone to have an IV treatment then what would she get?
The woman then said aggrievedly, âHector, I have a fever and my body is weak, so the
child could not be breastfed.â
âIf the child can no longer be breastfed by you, then itâs even more useless for you to have
an IV treatment! Itâs better to save the money and spend it modestly! â
The woman was speechless, she could only slowly leave. Right after she took two steps,
her body just went limp and she collapsed on the ground. At that time, Zayn wanted to go
up and support the woman. However, he was just a twelve-year-old child, so even if he
already had the strength, he was still afraid of that man who had once threatened them.
By then, Hector had already taken a step forward. He then raised his leg and kicked the
woman. âWhat are you doing, playing possum? Get up and go home. Youâll be fine after
compressing with an ice towel! â
After that, the woman forced herself up and slowly walked away. Zayn also went to his
classmateâs home to play. Later on, that classmate of his had also moved, and Zayn had
never been to that place anymore.
It has been twenty years, and Zayne had never expected to meet Hector again that day. He
was already very old, and he seemed slightly friendlier compared to during his younger
days. Especially when he saw his daughter, the old manâs face was covered by his smile.
âMy precious daughter has returned. Quickly, let me see what kind of boyfriend you brought
back?â
Zayn did not answer the question that Tessa asked just now, but he just looked blankly at
Hector. âMister Caven! Hello, we meet again!â
