Chapter 831


    Willing? A scene shed across Ro''s eyes.


    His parents died when he was very young. Although the Hawkins family had power and influence,


    which would be a great thing for any other children, but not him.


    He could never get along with the other children in the grand garden. Having no parents, he had no


    one to rely on.


    "Hey, Ro, fetch the ball for us," a child ordered.


    "Fetch it yourself!" Ro replied. Every day, they would find new ways to bully him.


    "When I tell you to fetch it, you run along and fetch it, you parentless savage!"


    Every time they would use being an orphan to mock him, especially after the kids found out about


    what his mother used to do when she was alive.


    Ro didn''t know why he had to bear the consequences for what the adults did. He did nothing


    wrong.


    He had to fetch the ball for them. After the rain, the yard was wet and muddy, and the children didn''t


    want to dirty their shoes.


    Ro walked into the garden, his feet covered with mud. This was a rose field with thorns


    everywhere. Ro was carefully looking for the ball.


    "Where is it? I can''t find it." He didn''t find the ball after looking for a long time.


    "It''s right there. I saw it fly that way. Look harder!" Another child said.


    "Bent down and take a look. Maybe it''s covered by roses."


    Ro bent down and looked around, but he didn''t notice that a child suddenly came from behind,


    kicking him in the back.


    "Ah..." He lost his bnce and fell into the rose bushes. He was only six years old that year, and his


    body was covered with blood because of the thorns. He fell into the earth, in pain and


    embarrassment.


    The other children sneered and said, "Look at him, he''s like a clown. It''s so funny."


    "A clown he is!"


    None of them came up to help him stand on his feet. He was dressed very thin in summer, and


    many parts of his body had been pierced with thorns.


    Ro got up slowly and painfully. He didn''t cry or make any noise. His old and shaggy clothes were


    covered with mud and scarlet blood.


    "I have done nothing to you to deserve this!" He shouted at the children in a hoarse voice. Children


    should be innocent, why did they have to be so vicious?


    "Why? Of course it''s because of your whore of a mother! We know that she slept with a lot of men


    just for money! You might be the son of any of them, you dirty sack!"


    "You savage, I heard that your mother had some illness before she died. You are her son, you might


    have that illness as well!"


    "Get out of the Hawkins family. Don''t make a fool of yourself."


    The rumors were like bricks hitting Ro from all directions, piercing his eardrums.


    "My mom is not a whore! Shut up!" Ro rushed toward those kids like crazy.


    Blood was still flowing from his body, but it couldn''tpare to the pain he had to bear in his heart.


    The children were scared by his madness and fled in all directions.


    "Ro has gone mad. Everyone, run for your lives!"


    The Hawkins family had arranged an olddy in her sixties to take care of him. She should be the


    only person who was good to him in the whole


    Hawkins family.

    When she saw the dirty boy appear in the yard, she asked, "What did you do with your clothes and


    your face?"


    "Grandma, they said that my mother is in a whore. My mother is not that kind of person, right?"


    Ro''s eyes were full of tears, and there were bloodstains cut by roses on his little face.


    He was covered with wounds and mud everywhere. He used to be such a delicate little boy, the


    crowning jewel of his family but he had to suffer such humiliation now.


    "Of course not. Don''t listen to those kids talking nonsense. Why are you covered in blood?"


    "They tricked me into fetching the ball for them, and then they pushed me into the rose field. I got


    hurt by the thorns on the roses." Ro told grandma what had just happened.


    "These little animals,e here and let me see." The olddy''s heart ached, especially when she


    saw a few thorns were still stuck on Ro''s body, her eyes turned red.


    "Ro, does it hurt?" The olddy''s tears rolled down and fell on the back of Ro''s little hand.


    "Grandma, don''t cry. I don''t feel any pain, not at all." He pulled out the thorns himself. "Look, it


    doesn''t hurt."


    The children who grew up in this environment were much more sensible than the ordinary children.


    Ro wiped the olddy''s tears for her.


    Although she was not his own grandmother, since Ro was a child, Ro had already regarded


    her as a family. His only dream was to protect the olddy.


    It just so happened that the olddy had no offsprings, and there was a quite hideous birthmark on


    her face, she had never married. She had worked at the Hawkins family for a long time before being


    assigned to take care of Ro.


    Watching this child grow up and get bullied every day, as a lowly servant, she couldn''t do anything


    for him.


    "Good boy, good boy, you have to work really hard, no matter how painful the process is, and only


    then can you get out of here and achieve something for yourself so that no one can bully you ever


    again."


    "Grandma, I know. When I grow up and earn enough money, I''ll take you to my house and we''ll live


    together. I will buy a great big house!" A smile jumped up to Ro''s tender face as he imagined.


    "Well, I''m sure you''ll be able to do that."


    After Ro started to go to school, he worked harder than others and achieved very good results.


    He didn''t care about those sarcastic words and humiliation anymore.


    Because he knew that one day he would make a name for himself, and then he would step on the


    people who had insulted him in the past!


    Slowly, his outstanding results began to draw the attention of the higher-ups in the family. Ro


    knew that he had sessfully taken the first step.


    The elders of the family would choose some outstanding children among the family, and when they


    grew up, they would work for thepany.


    Ro wanted to seize this opportunity to desperately climb up. The Second Elder felt that this child


    was a keeper and quite obedient and therefore gave him more and more opportunities.


    Finally, he got the chance he''d been waiting for. The Young Madam had escaped. The higher-ups in


    the family panicked after finding no trace of her anywhere.


    After a few months, the people of the family had agreed that a person should be chosen to prepare


    for the selection. At first, their choice was Mira, who desperately and firmly refused.


    The second Elder, against almost everyone''s wills, chose Ro. There had never been a male


    family head in the R family but he was their only choice, given that Mira refused to take that


    position.


    After the Second Elder convinced the family members that Ro was theirst hope, Ro


    worked even harder after being elected as the candidate.


    Second Elder said that when he reached eighteen, he would be appointed as the head of the family.
