Chapter 669


    Chapter 669 They Were Wrong


    Zayne let out a sigh of relief in his mind. That girl sure has a terrible fate. I pity her.


    Sylvie was feeling a little thirsty and wanted to grab a cup of water. When Zayne saw that, he stood and handed her a cup of water.


    As she took the cup from his hand, her fingers identally touched the back of his hand.


    She reflexively pulled her hand back due to the static shock caused by dryness.


    Zayne found that a little funny. After he stopped chuckling, he held the cup by the bottom and gave it to her. “No static shock this time.”


    Sylvie grabbed the cup and sipped some water.


    She then stared at him and asked, “Do you pity the girl?”


    He was stunned for a second before he nodded.


    Since he was young, he grew up in the Zeigler residence. He didn''t have the best that life could offer, but he certainly didn''tck anything.


    It never urred to him that somewhere in the world, someone was leading such a harsh life.


    Sylvie lowered her head, resting her line of sight on the cup, and muttered, “When I learned about her story, I pitied her too. However, when


    she saw how I was looking at her, she told me that ny percent of the world''s poption lives in poverty, in one way or the other. She asked


    me if I could pity everyone who struggled daily to stay alive.”


    The next question was directed at Zayne and at herself at the same time. “Do you think it''s worth it for people to do everything they can to


    obtain what they want?”


    Zayne thought about it and answered, “It''s worth it. A person''s life is not that long. I don''t think it''s wrong for someone to do their best to get


    what they want.”


    Sylvie had been in a daze after arriving at the hospital. She felt a lot better after hearing him say that.


    “Yeah, life isn''t at all long,” she muttered.


    I dreamed of bing a superstar who''s always in the center of attention. Someone with money, fame, and nothing to worry about in life.


    They are the ones who keep blocking my path and pushing me to take extreme measures. They''re the ones who are wrong. I''m right. She stared


    at the young man in front of her.


    His short hair was a bit ruffled, and his facial features were defined. In spite of his youthful demeanor, he appeared rather mature at the same


    time.


    Zayne was feeling a little ufortable being stared at like that, so he asked, “Is there something on my face?”


    “Yeah.” Sylvie nodded.


    Just as he touched his face, trying to figure out what dirty stuff was stuck on it, she said, “The word ''prosecutor'' is written on your face. One


    day, you''ll no doubt be a legendary figure in Baykeep.”


    “Ah. I haven''t even entered university, though. Besides, the bar exam isn''t easy. What if I fail?” he asked.


    “You got a rmendation from your school, yet you''re saying that kind of stuff to me?” She felt speechless.


    Upon a few moments of pondering, she uttered, “There are many talented people in the Zeigler family. It''s fine if you can''t make it. If you


    really do screw up your exam, how about you be my bodyguard in the future instead?”


    “Really? You''re not going to hire me for free, are you?”Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.


    “We''re family. We shouldn''t be talking about money with each other.” Sylvie grinned faintly.


    Zayne couldn''t help but chuckle. When he received a call, he excused himself and headed outside.


    Once the call connected, a crisp, pleasant voice of a girl entered his ear. “When are youing, Zayne?”


    “I''m not going. You guys have fun.” He nced at the ward and whispered, “My cousin is injured. No one is taking care of her in the


    hospital.”


    “Is it serious? Do you need any help?” the girl asked in concern.


    “No, it''s okay. My cousin is doing fine after the operation. I''ll wait until she''s feeling better before I go back.”


    There was obvious disappointment in the girl''s voice. “Okay, then. Be careful when you''re heading back.”


    After Zayne ended the call and returned to the ward, he saw Sylvie wearing the sweater. It was pretty big as the sleevespletely covered


    her hands.


    “I think it''s a little too big. Do you want me to change it to another one?” he said, touching his face awkwardly.


    He didn''t expect her to be that skinny.
