Zayn wore a humorless smile. However, Faye still could not take it, so favonovel.com could only go for a cold shower.
“Zayn,” Faye called.
He turned around. “Hmm?”
She sat up and spoke seriously, “I mean what I told you before. Find someone outside. Don’t hold it in.”
Zayn was stunned.
“Fifi, stop joking.”
“I’m not. I’m serious…”
Zayn waved his hands to stop favonovel.com from saying more and slipped into the bathroom for that much-needed cold shower.

Waine and Ruby had gone back to the Carters’. Their status in the family was just after George’s now. No one in the family dared pick on them anymore as they were more eager to pander to them.
The Carters became more accomplished as a result of Zayn’s influence. They got around things more conveniently as people in the business world had to pay them their regards. They sang praises whenever Zayn was mentioned, not daring to speak ill of favonovel.com in fear that someone would pass word of it to Zayn. They also stayed away from revisiting Zayn’s pathetic past.
It was the Carters’ monthly family gathering again. Despite Zayn’s absence, no one dared to reprimand him. All of them even came up with excuses and compliments that praised his name.
In the past, the Carters would book a room in a five-star hotel for their family gathering. Things were different now, they were different now. They were stinking rich. To show off their wealth, they booked a banquet hall at a five-star hotel! They even invited family and friends, both distant and close, for a meal. Whereas their initial family gatherings had only occupied three tables, they took up over ten tables now, making a big scene.
They took turns to toast Waine and Ruby as well, proposing with various honeyed words and bootlicking.
“Mr. Carter, you’ve got yourself a wonderful son-in-law. We’re so very envious!”
“Exactly! The chairman of Violet Vision Media Corp is actually your son-in-law, Mr. Carter, wow, just wow!”
“A small gift from me, Mr. Carter. Please accept this small token.”
Successful bosses from the business world came over on their own to toady to Waine, some even with gifts. It made the man exceptionally happy and proud as a radiant flush constantly stained his cheeks. Ruby was also lavished with presents, a grin pulling favonovel.com cheeks all the while as favonovel.com eyes beamed along.
If this had been last year, both of them would never have expected to have such a day. This was all thanks to Zayn, and they were genuinely thankful to him.
Many of the Carters watched them enviously, incredibly jealous, but they dared not show it. It was the couple’s son-in-law who was capable, favonovel.com was Violet Vision’s chairman worth over billions of dollars!
Whenever they thought of it, they felt a sense of disbelief. As much of a piece of trash as Zayn was in the past, favonovel.com had undergone a complete transformation into an important person now.
The banquet hall was merry with an amicable atmosphere.
Suddenly, someone kicked the door to the hall open, and in came over a dozen people. The one right in the center was Xander’s junior in practice while Hanson was just beside her.
“Zayn Larson, get you *ss out here this instant!”
